  1. Past hour
  2. 1. It's too broad. A generalization, trans rights were voted in by conservatives in Canada. 2. I'm using accommodation as a general term for acceptance in society. 3. So some would call you in the right for saying that. 4. Agree. 5. Thank you.
  3. Yes, the comment is so bizarre. NATO is a defensive alliance. European NATO members were under no obligation to join a mad war on another continent.
  4. But production hasn’t moved on to other countries. As you note, China still dominates at Walmart. In a normal free market democracy going through an export boom, the currency would rise dramatically and consumers would be rewarded for their hard work. China doesn't allow this. It keeps its currency artificially low. The people who run China are not capitalists. They believe in ever greater production on the Soviet model. But they are in charge of the best capitalists in the world. Hence the runaway train.
  5. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/bill-c-30-changes-pesticide-use-pest-control-products-act-9.7240832 "The federal government has brought in major changes to how pesticides are regulated in Canada, granting cabinet the power to authorize their use — even pesticides Health Canada has deemed are unsafe." I don't like this - those pesticides were banned for good reasons.We can't afford to lose what's left of our pollinators. I hope to hell their use is very limited and strictly governed.
  6. The manufacturing of jackboots has seen a significant increase, particularly in the wake of the Trump Inaugural. This surge is attributed to the rising need for jackboots in authoritarian government agencies and the optimism of increased government spending in the sector. Investors have driven shares of Jackboot Industries to nearly double their price, reflecting the new administration's promise to be a job creator and the expectation of an increase in incoming orders. thefontanel.com If it was not so ridiculously dangerous for weak minds it would be funny as hell.
  7. And maybe somebody with some basic social skills as well.
  8. What country doesn't want to "ramp up industrial production"? Production moved from the west to Japan, then Korea, then Taiwan, China, Indonesia... Those countries got or are getting richer along with their costs rising. cost China has cheap labour now, but that will change. How much cheap untapped labour is there in Africa, South America... Nothing to do with remorselessness, just capital looking to make profit. Remember, it was the West wanting and investing in cheap Chinese goods that got us here. AI: Even now, Estimates suggest that Chinese suppliers account for 70% to 80% of Walmart's general merchandise
  9. Today
  10. Maybe next time elect an educated person to be President. Just throwing it out there.
  11. The Right are not 'Reasonable people' on this issue. And apart from washroom use and sports, what is there to accommodate? There are stalls in washrooms, and I don't think men that transition should be allowed in women's sports as most men carry so much more muscle mass than women. Apart from that: Live and Let Live. Every citizen should have the same rights. But I agree with the gist of your argument.
  12. Trump could not even fly home from the G7 without insulting and making a complete ass out of himself by insulting and going after yet another Ally with petty lies and bullshit. Because he lost his manufactured war. Time to put him in a home.
  13. Yep. Grievance, Entitlement and Victimhood. Lot of that going around these days.
  14. So was I, but I don't live in a fantasy world of nostalgia, or just look for problems, or blame my bad feelings on other people just because they don't look like me.
  15. This is a personal decision for yourself and your care givers. Not the internet, not the politicians, not the people who insist on sticking their noses into other peoples affairs. And certainly not the religious folks. If I might need or want to use MAID. That is my decision, and mine alone.
  16. American have know all this about him for years and years. And yet they voted for him. TWICE! And now they are whining. I don't feel a damn bit sorry for any of them.
  17. What does any of the above make him a lefty?
  18. Sorry but you Canucks have NO BUSINESS telling Americans what to donate their money for. The Obama Presidential Center is A LOT MORE than just a Library. It is a COMMUNITY CENTER for recreation and many other things in an area of the city which contains very little of those resources. And if you weren't a Canuck who never visited the South side of Chicago (where I went to college), you would know how starved that area is for such resouces. IOW, your IGNORANCE has revealed you to be a FRAUD.
  19. It's unfortunate that you cannot comprehend the difference between a defensive alliance like NATO, and a demand to join in to aid an OFFENSIVE WAR OF CHOICE. NATO members NEVER signed up for the latter. Now you know.
  20. Some arrests for unrelated things in CA and "I guarantee you this has been happening for a long time" is NOT EVIDENCE of CA election fraud in this election.
  21. I gave you evidence and you can't refute it. DUH
  22. Define help? Do you mean the ground troops required to achieve total victory, annihilation or whatever it was that Trump had in mind?
  23. But what about using support for Israel to stick it to Libbies? What's really funny about this, as far as you're concerned, is that you're probably past the point of no return of being cancelled as one for losing faith. You can take the boy out of left field but you can't take left field out of the boy.
  24. You're right, the US committed its regional partners in the Gulf to come up with the money. Let us know how that works.
  25. Just to summarize because nuance can be lost in these pages, there is no doubt in my mind that MAID should exist for those with agonizing medical conditions like MND. That’s not a debate we need to have in Canada again. A personal nightmare of mine is to be stuck in a situation where I can’t breathe properly. Nobody should be made go through that if they don’t want to. On the psychiatric side, I fully understand the concerns and would accept if MAID did not apply to them. I certainly don’t want to see it used for young people with psychiatric conditions at all but would like to put the case for those older people who have already been through a great deal of anguish and have decided after reflection that they have no desire for more of the same.
