Dave Partanen is the Vice President of Publications and Research, as well as an Ontario Director for the Canadian Coalition for Firearm Rights. He also regularly contributes content to High Capacity Magazine and shares his views on a number of sociopolitical topics on Facebook and the soon to be officially launched blog, The Social Observer Effect.
As a former Director of Crime Stoppers of Hamilton, and having interacted with law enforcement, community grassroots organizations, and various research professionals, Dave has built and continues to build a knowledge base of not only the issues that plague many of our communities, but also some of the approaches that have proven to be effective in mitigating risk factors, both locally and abroad.
Although all of this has shaped Dave’s perspectives, he will present neither as a representative, spokesperson, or advocate of any organization. He is, instead, speaking as an individual concerned citizen.
Please join Dave, a number of other speakers to be announced shortly, and fellow citizens, legal firearms owners or not, as he brings his experience to the floor to discuss what the outcome of the general federal election means to the future of crime prevention and to the future of legal firearms ownership in Canada.
