Gonk’s Questions: Real-World Preparedness Challenges

This week on the Canadian Prepper Podcast, we’re diving into real-life preparedness questions from one of our Discord members – Gonk from Minden, Ontario. After facing a brutal 9-day power outage during an ice storm, Gonk brings a long list of practical, thoughtful, and sometimes hilarious questions every prepper should be asking.

We cover everything from:

• Affordable and effective generator setups

• Manual water pump systems with filtration

• Powerful perimeter lighting for dark rural properties

• Where to find affordable night vision gear

• Backup communication options without relying on cell service

• Reliable outdoor cooking gear

• Finding a good tractor without breaking the bank

• Forming local prepper communities in rural Ontario

Whether you're just starting out or you’ve been prepping for years, this episode is packed with relatable scenarios, smart advice, and gear recommendations. It’s a reality check on how prepping actually plays out in rural Canada — and how to be ready for next time.
