Airsoft Canada

The largest and most popular Canadian forum on the topic of airsoft. Widely regarded as one of the most complete archive of related subjects and a large group of active and knowledgeable members.

Also the source of much internet drama, because 14 year olds can't wrap their heads around the specific particularities of airsoft in Canada. The legal issues have prompted the community to defend their hobby by enforcing a country wide ban of the prolification of minor ownership of guns.

Since the forum has been around since almost a decade, a lot of issues have been discussed over and over, thus a quick search is recommended before asking a question, as should be customary in any forums.

Many people, specifically minors, have a hard time adapting to the etiquette if the forum, thus post butthurt articles on urban dictionary to get an e-high, thinking we give a shit.

FAQ off!

2 day old newbie: "HAI GUISE! WERE CAN I GET GUNS FOR UNDER 100$? I WANNA BE A LEET SNIPPER LIEK IN CS LOLOL!!!"

Airsoft Canada: "Uh, no? Here's a link that explains why guns are hard to find in Canada, here's one on the procedure to have access to the classifieds, here's one to the games..."

2 day old newbie: "WAAAAMBULANCE!!!1!"

Australia's Canada

New Zealand.

The term references the similarities between the Australia-New Zealand and United States-Canada relationships. Each pair maintains strong ties, though also trades (usually) good-natured jests and barbs.

Both Canada and New Zealand have smaller populations and can be said to "live in the shadow" of their more well-known neighbor. Each is also known for outstanding natural beauty and friendly people.

Person 1: "Geez. Those Aussies and Kiwis are really going at it over there. They really must hate each other."

Person 2: "Nah, they're just drunk and being dumb. New Zealand is Australia's Canada. They'll be friends again in the morning."
