Any recommendations for a Canadian "3 day bag"? (www.canex.ca)

I linked the Canex option. I also have older MEC bags that I like (from before their buyout).

The premise of a three day bag is to have something to grab and go in an emergency. Prepacked, near the door -- that sort of thing. Wait for the emergency to blow over, and have enough supplies to weather the period you need to make a decision.

What do you folks think should be in a three day bag? Does it vary if you're urban or rural? What about weather and time of year?

Also interested. I am Canadian living in America and am looking to back asap. Was looking for go bags in case if things get way too hectic in the US for Canadians and I just need to get in my car and dash to the border.

I figured basic medical, food & water, basic survival stuff would be needed. I would add a gun to the mix, but thats money I would rather save to help move to Canada. Plan on buying a gun once in Canada.

Just a reminder that you will need a PAL in Canada. And I presume you mean a hunting rifle or similar -- to go all "The Long Dark" ;)

Yep! I haven't looked deep into it because that is a "Once already in Canada" problem in my mind. Just a simple hunting rifle that I know the in and out of and can familiarly and effectively shoot is enough for me.

I'm not all gung-ho about guns or anything either, in terms of policy many would call me anti-gun even. I wouldn't disagree. I am a staunch pacifist and refuse to glorify violence or the tools for it. I just want to know I can have the ability and skills to defend Canada if such a time comes. The world is changing and self defense is timeless.

Even considering maybe joining the reserves too. I am a college educated adult, so I would likely become an officer and they get paid niiiiice.

Beyond a few litres of water, 10000% pack a portable pump filter and enough water purification tablets/solution for 3 weeks. Last thing you want is to grab your bug-out bag, start making your way north, and "Oregon Trail: You Died of Dysentery" yourself. Beaver Fever is a thing, and it will fuck your day.
