Hats off to the guys at Nova for reaching a new level in their shoots.

Great turnout, fantastic targets. Fun, and a lot of head-scratching after a few stands. Great technical targets.

I shoot a lot in Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont, and these targets are on par with the best in the northeast US.

The work and investment you guys are pouring in to your facility are much appreciated.

Thanks also to Ross and Justin at The Gun Dealer and to Eli from Challenger for the fantastic support.

Violation of CTV Atlantic’s Own Editorial Standards and Policies
The following is a quote from CTV’s Editorial Standards and Policies:
“The goal of CTV News is to be accurate and balanced. Our credibility on air and online depends upon such reporting. Accordingly, CTV News will endeavour to promptly correct significant errors of fact in its journalism, once we determine that an error has been made.”

An interview of Safety Minister, Blair, by CTV Atlantic news anchor, Steve Murphy, on February 16, 2021 appears to violate the very essence of CTV’s own editorial standards as well as ethical and professional standards for reporting and journalism.
1. The firearms banned by the Trudeau government were not assault rifles, as claimed by Murphy. Assault rifles are fully automatic and the firearms that are banned are semi-automatic. Assault rifles, i.e. machine guns, have been banned for 50 years. Murphy showed a video clip of a machinegun being fired as representation of the banned firearms purposely misleading viewers and tainting the dialogue that followed. To add to his deceit, the machine gun had a 20 rnd high capacity magazine, allowing for continuous fire while magazines in excess of 5 rnds have been banned in Canada for decades. Most of the handguns displayed have also been prohibited for decades. Furthermore, Murphy continued to misrepresent the firearms in question by calling them assault weapons. On the next newscast he referred to them as ‘assault style’ weapons, a term that has no meaning in any firearms vernacular, but instills the same intent of a machine gun.
2. Murphy deliberately misstated that the firearms banned have no purpose ‘but to kill’- HIS OWN WORDS. Nothing could be further from the truth. Firearms such as the AR-15, which are the subject of the ban, are the most popular firearms for hunting, target and sports shooting in the world. Many of the banned firearms were previously non-restricted and used widely in hunting in Canada. AR-15 variants are the firearms of choice for serious international competition.
3. Murphy failed to mention the study done by the Canadian Tax Payers Association and the issue paper prepared by RCMP’s National Police Association, both of which condemn the ban as not providing any public safety benefit and costing over $500M.
4. Murphy allowed only a 5 second sound bite of the opposition party. Equal time should have been allotted to Mr. O’Toole, the CCFR or NFA.
ONLY YOU CAN BRING ABOUT CHANGE-ACT NOW!
Should you believe that Murphy violated not only CTV’s editorial standards but also the basic ethics of journalism in his reporting, you can do the following:
a. Contact CTV’s parent company, Bell Media, and insist that CTV correct Murphy’s inaccurate reporting. Alternatively, demand Murphy be terminated.
b. Call CTV National at 1-866-690-6179 and leave a message for Murphy to leave his personal politics at home and practice balanced, ethical, and accurate journalism or resign.
c. Cancel all of your services with Bell Media, cell, tv & internet and tell them why.
d. Contact corporate sponsors of Murphy’s newscast letting them know you disapprove of their support of biased and inaccurate journalism and how that might effect your view of their product or services.

The government paid for Steve Murphy’s news coverage: Friday, November 18, 2016
NOVEMBER 18, 2016 BY TIM BOUSQUEThis is not a simple advertising deal. This is an explicit deal to sell news coverage. Evidently the producers of the evening and morning news shows agreed to the deal, and Cindy Day and Steve Murphy knew, or should have known, that they were being paid by a government agency for their reporting.

Steve Murphy
In a word, this is outrageous. It violates every rule of journalistic integrity and independence. How can we trust anything Steve Murphy or CTV reports about the provincial government when their pay is in part dependent on the very same provincial government? Moreover, the payment was secret: so far as I can determine, there was no public disclosure on CTV’s part that its tree coverage was purchased, or by whom.
