71- Phase Line Green: The Climate and Future of Training in Canada

Whether you've had your PAL for 20 days or 20 years, chances are you've heard about this episode's guest and have thought about taking one of his courses. Earl Green hops on the MCS to talk about his experiences when it comes to providing Canadians firearms trainings, as well as his observations of what the future may hold for Canadian shooters.

The conversation starts with the customer demographic that take courses at Phase Line Green, being primarily made up of law enforcement and civilians. Earl brings up some of the roadblocks that have been instituted through legislation over the years that have made it increasingly difficult for companies like his own to provide quality training to its customers. Regardless of these difficulties, Earl has observed that the morale and willingness to learn from the students is always positive, which adds to his drive to continue providing training.

From there, the conversation shifts to the differences between the shooting community in regards to west coast and east coast based shooters. Both Earl and Pat have noticed that shooters based on the west coast of the country seem to have a hunger for any and all training courses that come there way, where as east coast shooters seem to be putting up their own personal barriers that prevent themselves from attending courses that are available to them.

Earl then brings up some of his experiences with younger generations that he has interacted with, specifically in secondary education institutions, and how what is being reported in the media is not what it actually is like in real life when it comes to priorities of the younger generation. Earl and Pat then converse about their own realizations of how the media in Canada is painting a false narrative in life that is easy to debunk by simply talking to your fellow Canadian.

The two then shift the spotlight back onto the training aspect of shooting. Earl talks about how he has shifted some of his training curriculum to "diagnostic shooting". Earl talks about some of the challenges he first faced when it came to providing his students with his first generation of diagnostic shooting and how he has since evolved his curriculum to where he can do it in a weekend course.
