Alan - Additional case of COvid-19 confirmed in Toronto. Pt. had returned from China recently and was likely not contagious. https://news.ontario.ca/mohltc/en/2020/02/ontario-confirms-presumptive-case-of-covid-19.html

In something that should shock no one, the government messed up and licence plates can’t be read in low light conditions. It’s going to take 3M some time to build another quarter million plates and redistribute them. In the meantime, the 407 and red light cameras can’t read the plates at night

The proposed assault weapons ban - one of several Virginia bills that prompted protests at the state Capitol earlier this year - ended in committee this past Monday. Four Democrats broke ranks with their party to help reject the bill in a 10-5 vote and send it back to the state's Crime Commission.

Busy week in American politics this week. Monday-Iowa Caucus, Tuesday-SOTU, Wednesday-Impeachment Trial Acquittal… Political drama this week continues to show divide and animosity within the country. Although the economy is doing well now and everything is humming along just fine, come November, regardless of the outcome, half of the country is going to be REALLY pissed off. We saw it in 2016. I expect to see much of the same civil unrest as the 2020 election approaches.

Long Term Storage of Firearms and Valuables Jan 12, 2020

Show notes

INTRO Eric –Welcome to episode #50 (Woo hoo!) of the Canadian Prepper Podcast, recorded Jan 12, 2020. My name is Eric, and I’m the host of the show. I am based in southern Ontario. I’m a hunter, target shooter, HAM radio operator (VE3EPN), and computer geek. I got into preparedness when I was working front line in emergency services and witnessed an over reliance on Emergency Services during major events, such as ice storms, power outages, etc. I started a small preparedness company to help get people prepared and able to look after themselves for at least 72 hours, if not longer. Alan - I’m Alan, and my friends and family call me a safety nerd. My background as a Medical First Responder developed a mind for safety. I teach first aid and coach family and friends to be better prepared. I'm a locksmith by trade and have worked in the physical security industry for more than 20 years now. Tyler - My name is Tyler, and I’m broadcasting from my five-acre homestead here in Northwestern Wisconsin, USA. Since purchasing my first house, I have been working to turn my property into a self-sufficient homestead with an emphasis on preparedness. Eric- Want to help support the show and keep the Canadian Prepper Podcast on the air? Buy a Canadian Prepper Podcast T-Shirt at www.rapidsurvival.com. All proceeds help keep the lights on, and the backup generator fueled! Tyler -If you’re enjoying the show, please take a few minutes and like us on Facebook, facebook.com/CanadianPrepperPodcast and submit a review on itunes. Also we want your feedback, good or bad, or even if there is a topic you want us to cover. You can email us at feedback@prepperpodcast.ca Eric – We have some well-preserved content for you in this episode, We’re going to start off with some preparedness related news articles. Next we will be letting you know how we’ve improved our preparedness since our last episode. Then we’ll get into the main topic for this episode - long term storage of valuables. News - Alan - Rough weekend in South Western Ontario as a massive rain storm turned lawns into lakes and then froze them https://www.theweathernetwork.com/ca/news/article/in-photos-ontario-extreme-rainfall-and-freezing-rain-event Ian - new strain of corona virus (like SARS) in China www.livescience.com/amp/new-coronavirus-pneumonia-outbreak-china.html https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.5422619 Ahhhhh!

Been gone since the Iran missile attack. Hard pass. Tomorrow, back at it. Alan - Busy week of studying (big test in 5 days), and multiple emergency responses. Set up Amazon Subscriptions for a few essentials to ensure that we’re never running out of important stuff. Tyler - Spent my weeknights getting caught up on paperwork/bills. Refilled 20 gallons worth of gas cans and three 20lb propane cylinders. Organized the gun safe and added some motion lights inside the safe. Colin - Main Topic - Eric - Alright, it’s time to move onto the main topic of the show. (Each host insert talking points here) Eric - Storage of valuables and firearms are fairly similar, extreme temperatures and moisture will be your main enemies. After that people looking to steal your firearms and valuables are the next thing to be worried about. First off, follow all firearm safety rules before handling your firearm! Firearms: Break down your firearm for cleaning Decock the firearm for storage, this takes tension off the springs. There are arguments for and against this. Do what you’re comfortable with Give it a good wipe down, fingerprints leave all kinds of oil that can over time cause an issue (wear gloves) Give your firearm a good ceaning, really good take a lot of time. After you’ve cleaned and cleaned it again apply a thin layer of gun oil to help protect any exposed metal parts Thoroughly clean the bore, once its clean apply a thin layer of oil as well to help protect it If you have a wood stock treat it with a wax to prevent swelling and cracking Ammo: Modern ammunition can be stored for decades Biggest enemy for ammunition is heat, make sure its stored in a cool dry place Get a container with a sealing gasket, this will help keep moisture out A small desiccant pack will help control moisture Storage Area: Gun safe is the best option, most are designed to help protect against moisture Use a silicone treated gun sock, helps protect against moisture and dings Dehumidifier is KEY, I use an Eva-dry unit in my gun safe. No power needed just have to dry it out every once and a while by plugging it into an outlet for 24h Don’t store your guns in cases, the linings (foam pads) attract moisture Cardboard boxes are equally a bad choice due to moisture collection Make sure the firearms aren’t touching or rubbing against each other General Make sure to take your firearms out every few months (they get lonely), have a look to make sure no rust is forming Give them a quick oil and wipe down Assess the dehumidification system, does it need to be recharged? Tyler - Primary storage is my gun safe… https://www.stack-on.com/product/armorguard-64-gun-safe-72/. Big bastard… 725lbs empty. Just moved it last weekend. Was in attached basement garage. High temperature swings and humidity, so moved into house. Nobody is walking away with that thing and theft is my biggest concern. Not a liberty but at half the price I love it. -Fireproof for 30 minutes up to 1400° F (verified by an independent laboratory) -4-way door locking with seven 1.5" live action locking bolts and three 1" dead bolts for a total of 10 locking points When purchasing firearms, consider SS barrel/synthetic/polymer stock models over blued steel barrel/wood stock. More spendy but won't rust or deteriorate. OPSEC considerations... All ammo is NOT created equally… Make sure your firearms correctly cycle that particular brand or grain count BEFORE stocking up with 1000’s of rounds. Should last decades IF stored properly… Store in cool/dark place. Label and rotate ammunition just like food/water preps. Vacuum sealed bags or ziploc bags w/ air squeezed out. Steel and/or plastic ammo boxes. For Transportation - Plastic/Aluminum hard protective cases w/ pick-n-pluck foam to perfectly hold your firearms. (Often used for photography/videography)(Pelicans are too spendy… go to Harbor Freight). IP Rating = Durability/waterproofing/Etc. Regular gun cases (pistol and/or long rifle)(OPSEC - Cedar Mill - guitar, airline approved, etc.). All available at your local Harbor Freight,FleetFarm, and Menards. Obviously your outdoors stores (Cabelas, Gander Mountain, Bass Pro Shop, etc.) but they seem a little more spendy. Harbor Freight, Fleet Farm, and Menards run some great deals on these items… Save$$$ but it's important to protect investments (i.e. guns and ammo...Guns will rust and ammo will go bad) https://www.harborfreight.com/search?q=ammo%20bo Moisture Absorbers - Damprid and/or Arm & Hammer https://www.menards.com/main/hardware/safes/safe-accessories/sports-afield-rechargeable-dehumidifier/xd-3/p-1560234824835-c-9573.htm $27 at menards. Works great. Stack-On makes one also. Disposable Silica gel packets… Homemade - salt/rice in tissue/cloth with ammo. (Be careful with leakages on chemical moisture absorbers…) Oiled gun wipes, gun oil, cleaning kits. TAKE PROPER CARE OF YOUR FIREARMS BEFORE STORING… CLEAN/CHECK REGULARLY… Refinishing/Bluing Rifles? Secret cache? PVC or 55-gallon drum buried underground. Fake/empty book on the book shelf DVD case full of cash with all other DVD’s False venting ducts or waste pipes False outlet cover/light switches/heat register/cold-air return Ian - Air salt, water bad. Constant temp even better. Condensation collects water. Fun fact… gold and diamonds don’t rust. Silver indeed can be affected by storage. As can dollah dollah bills….. Cosmoline - history of……Ointment, antiseptic, udder-ly awesome. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmoline https://www.cosmolinedirect.com/cosmoline-black-rust-veto-344/?gclid=CjwKCAiAmNbwBRBOEiwAqcwwpY5owFmrwuxFemMVcsPl3B_yoqcfDithnFp6YL-eUmJWYddFTTMiqRoCNHEQAvD_BwE Ballistol - sane idea.

Seal wood and metal parts separate. Walmart ammo cans versus metal ammo cans. 4.88 each cross border. Check the seal, but Just as good PVC pipe Seal it off ….versus threaded end cap. Proper adhesive and Silicone tape Channel lock pliers to close Places to hide: Hide in plain sight. Diamonds in the aquarium:).

Iranian leadership and several affiliated violent extremist organizations publicly stated they intend to retaliate against the United States.

At this time we have no information indicating a specific, credible threat to the Homeland. Iran and its partners have demonstrated the intent and capability to conduct operations in the United States.

Previous homeland-based plots have included, among other things, scouting and planning against infrastructure targets and cyber enabled attacks against a range of U.S.-based targets.

Iran maintains a robust cyber program and can execute cyber attacks against the United States. Iran is capable, at a minimum, of carrying out attacks with temporary disruptive effects against critical infrastructure in the United States.

An attack in the homeland may come with little or no warning.

Be Prepared:

Be prepared for cyber disruptions, suspicious emails, and network delays.

Be responsible for your personal safety. Know where emergency exits and security personnel are located. Carry emergency contact and special needs information with you.

Implement basic cyber hygiene practices such as effecting data backups and employing multi-factor authentication. For more information visit CISA.gov.
