Summary

A veteran was fined $28,000 for stepping into the woods during Nova Scotia’s strict wildfire ban. Will states like Oregon or California implement similar restrictions as they face increasing wildfires – and how much pressure are they willing to use to get citizens to comply? Jeff Evely, a retired Master Warrant Officer with 20 years of service, recorded himself breaking the “Stay Out of the Woods” order in Coxheath, Nova Scotia, in protest of the restrictive ban on all hiking and camping until October 15. The video went viral as another example of Canadian government overreach. David Freiheit, known as Viva Frei, is a legal commentator and host of Viva Frei on Rumble, Locals, and YouTube. He co-hosts Viva & Barnes Live on VivaBarnes.Locals.com, discussing legal and political issues.
