Canadian Prepper rocks. Havent seen this one, must be new! Followed.

Yes, Canadian Prepper has only gotten better over the years, but he's still a city boy ( no offense) and he's getting to be commercialized.... People don't really have to spend a lot of money on expensive gear. Take a grain of salt with everything these YouTube Preppers market.... CP sure does produce entertaining videos filled with professional looking backdrops... I'll give him that....

Yeah.. his training regime & apocalyptic style workouts seem to be second to none though.. and his "after the collapse" videos are thought provoking to say the least..

Yes, his content is very thought provoking and entertaining, but some of his conclusions are specious, city boy conclusions. His workouts are great for living in the concrete jungle ( and he looks fantastic) but the type of muscle he's building is basically useless for 12 or 15 hour days subsistence farming, walking a 15 mile trap-line or survival hunting and fishing.... He's got city boy muscles and city boy outlook... But I still really, really like his vids and I think Preppers should watch and support his work..... In the future I'm going to do a breakdown on some of the most popular YouTube Preppers. Stay tuned for some controversy...

Thanks again for your comments.

Very welcome, interesting to hear your opinions but have to disagree that he'd be useless at those tasks. I reckon he could run 15 miles faster than most people could run 10, physically and probably mentally stronger & more disciplined than the 99% and seems to me like he has a lot of drive & determination..

CP's muscle is not built for running. But I do agree that he's in fantastic shape compared to the 99%.

The Tarahumara are people who are conditioned to run. Moreover, they are conditioned to live a subsistence lifestyle because that's what they do.... Grinding out a living in Copper Canyon is far different than grinding out prepping videos in-between building a type of muscle that requires 4000 calories a day just to feed.... How many calories per day do you think a Tarahumara needs in order to run 75 miles?

I know what I'm talking about because not only have I lived the life, but I've done the research on what type of body build is required to subsist in the wild year after year. CP goes on wilderness trips. He doesn't live the lifestyle and to anybody who has lived it we know what to look for...

Hi folks, the REAL Canadian prepper hear. I have to clarify some things here. I'm not trying to sound full of myself because anyone who trains can do what I do. I run 10 KM straight 2-3 times per week 45- 50 minutes. A 15 mile hike with a heavy pack isn't even something I find challenging. This city boy was also a highballing treeplanter, one of the hardest piecework jobs in Canada, chopper in to forested cutblocks in the middle of nowhere (hundreds of miles from the city) to work for 12 hours straight in the sweltering heat, no matter rain, hail, bugs like you wouldnt believe, insane physical obstacles and oh yeah BEARS, lots of them, and oh yeah sleeping in tents not trailers (I DID IT FOR 7 YEARS). So I recommend you check your assumptions and I havent even brought up the fact that you uploaded my videos without my permission...

Great work man!

Thanks. You can check out Canadian Preppers YouTube channel for hours of more content....

Thanks for the reply I already follow it it's great

So, do you make any of your own content?

I respect your opinion , but I disagree, and I see where where you're going and where you're coming from. If I agreed with your opinion then I'd have to believe that news aggregators like Drudge should not be allowed to feature stories from, for example, the NYT ... There is a built in link to CPs YouTube channel and I'm happy to drive eyeballs to his site. Moreover, I've never taken credit for any article or video that I post..

In the future I plan on critiquing CP's advice along with many other YouTube Preppers and maybe some people won't care for what I have to say about the good, bad and ugly ---- apologies to Clint Eastwood -- in which case they're free to up vote , down vote or no vote... This is , in my opinion, the beauty of Seemit as it changes the rules , i.e., I don't need permission and you and the others can judge according to reason and good conscience...

For now, this blog is merely a "guide" as in "TV Guide"... I mostly post what I think is worth some consideration; however, I do offer some opinion, commentary and argument which is more than Drudge and tens of thousands of other news and content aggregators do.

Thanks for your frank and honest opinion.... and I say let's try and get CP to post his entire content on Steemit....

I'd be willing to bet the majority of people don't know they can click on the built in YouTube link in the video and likely assume that it is your content. In fact I thought the first few posts of yours were actually your videos because nothing in the post stated otherwise.

Excuse me, but some of my posts actually link to other news and video aggregators, e.g, "The Financial Survival Network"... http://financialsurvivalnetwork.com

It should be self evident what I'm doing. And apparently you seemed to have no problem figuring it out.

Kerry Lutz has one of the best aggregation sites bar none. He's a great guy who started out just like I plan to, viz., building a following via aggregation ... The best part about guys like Kerry is how they evolved into actually posting thier own interviews, podcasts and articles. I remember when Kerry announced he was grossing ten thousand per month after years of reading and watching and grinding out posts on his site. So now Kerry has a very profitable site.. You should check it out. And please do me a favor and pester him about how he legally built his profitable business model...

Thanks for the support brother, I appreciate it.
