Who said Trudeau can't keep a promise? http://www.torontosun.com/2017/03/03/trudeau-rewards-a-terrorist-with-citizenship

By fiscally incompetent and socially awkward I assume Impact is referring to the popularity of "libertarian" ideas among those who live in mom's basement. -k

CRA goes after low hanging fruit. It always has. Much easier to beat up on and intimidate middle class taxpayers than put out the time and expense of dealing with the high priced lawyers and accountants rich people employ.

Probably Obamas numbers included millions of illegals, as well as dead people.

Where is Trump's birth certificate... long form

That 47.74 million doesn't include all the space-aliens who tuned in.

America has been pushing it's fat carcass around the planet for decades now. It's a super-rogue, a Frankenstate, a monster that needs to be put down.

You know when you asked, why should we ever want to give you an up-arrow, +1 love points? This is one of those times...

It seems Trump has boxed himself in a corner with the allegations against Obama. There are three possible scenarios, listed from least to most likely: Obama illegally tapped Trump Tower; a judge actually agreed there was enough evidence to legally tap Trump Tower; Trump is paranoid and crazy. In any of the three cases, one would think that even Trump supporters would want to get to the bottom of it. The odds are that won't go well for Trump.

Truth can be boring, I guess. The reaction from the left calling for his resignation... that's a good one. The more the media goes on a frenzy, the better it makes Trump look. People know when their being lied to. Right wingers will not drink the left wing koolaid.

Sorry, which pussy grabber are you talking about

Comical how, the article begins with: A respected Canadian law firm Respected by who and for what?

All you're doing is deflecting. Refer to page 12 and 15. You can't refute them! You haven't even tried, because you can't.

Lie under oath about getting a hummer from an intern: "impeach! impeach!! impeach!!!" Lie under oath about meeting representative of a hostile foreign government accused of influencing the election, during your confirmation hearing: "meh, he probably just forgot." -k

Now it is 1984 Knock-knock at your front door It's the suede/denim secret police They have come for your uncool niece Come quietly to the camp You'd look nice as a drawstring lamp Don't you worry, it's only a shower For your clothes here's a pretty flower.

Give me a break.

No one is challenging or even supporting illegal immigration. That the cops arrest illegal immigrants, put them in cuffs and haul them off is just fine. They're illegally entering the country and so they get arrested. Thats all good. If folks from far flung lands wish to emigrate to Canada then get the paper-work done, get the visa's, make the declarations. Nobody is for illegal immigration. Arrest illegal immigrants. If they claim refugee status then hear the claim. This is how it has been done for years and years and nothing has changed. I am all for more immigration, not less and so conflict with those who want less immigration and not more. You accused me of favouring illegal immigration in an earlier post and told me I know nothing about how illegal immigrants live. You missed my point entirely. My point was that when the USofA cracks down on illegal immigrants, some of those said illegals, fearing deportation to places they definitely do not want to be, will flee to Canada. This is not rocket science. No tweets required for that to happen. You blame Trudeau as if it was some great secret that Canada accepts immigrants. You seem to think that illegal immigrants will be welcomed with open arms by me and trudeau. They won't. Such illegal entrants will be arrested and probably deported. You know this, because you told me all about illegal immigrants living in squalor. Not immigrants living in squalor. But illegal immigrants living in squalor. The illegality of them being in the country results in the squalid conditions in which they live. And you don't like that, naturally, so think we should have less illegal immigration (as if there was some policy in place for how many illegal immigrants we allow in the country alongside how many legal immigrants we take in!). Unfortunately, how many illegal immigrants enter this country is not up to us or Trudeau's iPhone but entirely up to how many folks decide to enter Canada illegally. To take one further whack at the dead horse; Trudeau's tweet has nothing to do with illegal immigrants and it makes no rational sense to blame him for illegal immigration. I did not realize that the minister of immigration sits on refugee boards. ... thats for good reason too, since he doesn't sit on refugee boards. I have not heard that refugee boards were tossed when Trudeau tweeted what he tweeted. I am quite sure that they are still in place and functioning. I am quite sure that the immigration minister does not yet sit on these boards and hear claims. In order for your Conflicting Intersest claim to be true there must be some indication that the minister would be in conflict with his duties. So far the only thing you have proffered is that , 1. He is a refugee himself and 2. He is Somali. This seems to mean that since he is a refugee he, the minister, will be sympathetic to illegal immigrants making refugee claims. I would agree with you if he sat on refugee boards, or reviewed the decisions of refugee boards and had the power to over-ride or reverse decisions of those boards He does not have such powers. The government can certainly challenge the decision of a refugee board but that challenge is done through the federal courts - not by ministerial waves of the hand. See the case of Ms Harvey who fled florida after being found guilty of rape in that state, entered and resided in Canada illegally then, when finally picked up by the RCMP claimed protected status. The Minister of immigration (RtHon Jason Kenney I believe) at that time was appalled at the decision appealed to the federal court for them to decide wether the boards decision was correct or not. The minister simply could not overide the boards decision on his own simply because he wanted to. As for point 2. He's a Somali therefore he must favour Somali refugees. The answer is the same as above; It's not up to him to decide. Its up to the refugee board to decide. Therefore I say there is no conflict with the Right Honourable Ahmed Hussen being immigration minister.

But he obviously used poor judgement because he knew better and then got hacked. But the bottom line is you refuse to address Trump's rule-breaking because you know it's not defendable and doing so would make you feel dirty.

Pence discussed terrorist threats with his senior homeland security advisor on an unsecured private email account and it was hacked due to his carelessness. Stop defending the indefensible.

Have you ever heard the justifications for the Holocaust?

There were. His latest initiative to crack down on illegals no doubt will trigger a new cycle but the movement has been there long before Trump. It slowed down quite a bit thanks to the third party rule initiated not just in the US and Canada but in Europe. Forum shopping slowed down until the Syrian civil war and Germany's extremely generous offer to take in the millions it did. Not just Syrians but millions from Africa flooded Europe seeking passage to Germany via Greece. That exodus continues. Most of the peope coming over are African, or Middle East migrants from countries with economic turmoil and famine. They of course see Europe as offering the kind of life no African country can provide not to mention the Arab States do not take in refugees as citizens. They refuse. They did imprison Palestinian ones and said they would showcase them as a reminder to the world that until Israel is disbanded they will keep the descendants of these people imprisoned in camps but Saudi Arabia, Iran, Egypt name the Arab state, it won't accept refugees. In fact Sudanese try to come to Israel which has no room for them and must turn them away at the Egyptian border. Israel interestingly takes in refugees-Jewish ones. It also takes in members of the Bahaii faith, gays and lesbians, and Arab Christians fleeing persecution. It at one point took in 10,000 Muslims from the Croatia-Serbia war. Not one, not one Muslim from that war was taken in by a Muslim country let alone an Arab one. You won't find a Somali a citizen of any Arab state. Europe is to Africa what the US has been to Mexico and South America. South Africa interestingly became a beacon for Zimbabwes, Somalis, Nigerians, Ghanaians, and all of these economic migrants have met with strong resistance but hey impact would never suggest South Africans have backlashed against so called refugees who are economic migrants, no no, that simply is something white racists do. Actually the back-lash in South Africa is producing street riots and attacks on the Somali community or one as South Africans accuse them of being rude, arrogant and refusing to mix into South African culture. You move people in mass amounts to different countries socio-economic consequences will arise. Dismissing it simply as being anti Muslim or anti refugee is a crock. The fact is Russia, China, and the Aran=b States refuse to take in Muslims and the people who claim Canada or the US is anti Muslim never acknowledge what I just said. They save their selective criticism for people like me who challenge immigration policies not being followed not people's religion Now with this thread lingering and Impact trying to act as if he is on higher moral ground as are the others who argue any challenge to illegal migration is racist I say save the politically correct crap. You put someone in the Ministry in charge of this subject who has a conflict like a Somali refugee who is now the Minister I would say the same about myself if I was offered the job. I don't see how as a son of a refugee like myself no different than this new Minister of Immigration could be expected to be neutral with such a sensitive issue and remain unconflicted about my people or his coming across the boarder. I would recuse myself because of that and also I would refuse to be used as a token. Interestingly I was told by the federal government during an interview for a security position years ago that I wasn't chosen because it was felt as a Jew I couldn't be used in certain matters because it was felt my ethnicity lent to an appearance of conflict and a predisposition to favour a specific nation. The point is its an assumption that goes on each day when people are screened for certain high clearance and security positions but clearly not with our Ministry of Immigration. I again repeat the person appointed is a good man and perfectly honest. He was put in a position of conflict that will send the wrong signal to illegal Somalis and Muslim migrants since he is both. It will put expectations in their mind as well as Africans, he will be soft on illegals. That is unfair on him and it will create backlash on genuine Somali refugees. It was not thought out. Right now the sad fact is most people leaving Somalia who can get to North America or Europe are economic migrants not refugees. They are escaping a failed nation with no true government or tax system or national enforced laws. The state is not persecuting anyone one people. They are all victims of a failed state equally. Thar makes them dirt poor and fleeing poverty. Poverty is not a criteria under the political refugee definition. If it was, then anyone from a third and fourth world country should automatically be given Canadian citizenship and our social system would collapse from the demand to provide housing, food, etc.

So what! He knew Hillary violated federal rules.....and he did not violate any law or rules.. That's, the difference. Bottomline: Hillary violated federal record rules when she used private email as Secretary of State! Pence did not break any laws, or rules, when he used private email as governor of Indiana.

The only pathetic thing I'm seeing is your sarcasm meter.

Won't be too difficult to find CPC leadership that is smarter than Trudeau....he is not the brightest bulb on the tree.

I take that as a "no, I do not care if Trump breaks similar rules. I only care that Hillary broke rules."

Everything is FINE in Sweden. Rinse, repeat.

Excellent point, we need some rallies with a poster of Pence in striped prison attire and crowds shouting lock him up.

Pence was using his private email for sensitive public business after he criticized Hillary for doing the same. So I guess he didn't think it was really a serious matter, after all, despite encouraging mobs to chant "lock her up!" (which is not a witch hunt at all). But once again, since Hillary is gone, do you have any concern for the conflict of interest rules Trump is currently breaking? Would it be a witch hunt to mention it?

Hillary using a private email server wasn't illegal either, and the guidelines were changing while she was in office. But at least she wasn't gullible enough to fall for a phishing scheme and get hacked.

Yes, the difference is clear. There is no evidence that Clinton's email was ever hacked, but according to Tony Cook at the Indy Star who broke the Pence story they have seen the email exchange between Pence and his top homeland security advisor discussing matters of global terrorist attacks. Pence was hacked.

Just one? I got another 20

That's not what people are saying about Russia at all but who cares given all the trouble the evil western Capitalists are causing anyway?

Let's hope it isn't a precedent: Passed Out = Consent

On topic? http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/clearly-a-drunk-can-consent-n-s-judge-acquits-taxi-driver-of-sexually-assaulting-woman-in-back-seat Oh wait....he was probably born in Canada....heh.

Maybe Trudeau is simply calling to recommend a better barber.

No, it's crystal clear you think understanding something is the same as supporting it. Stephan Harper did the very same thing when he accused Tom MulCaire of being with the terrorists.

I guess she just comes off sounding like a climate change activist that drives a fossil fuel burning car on their way to the rally/protest. You know how that goes.

This is a pretty valid point. Our hypocrisy is plainly evident when it comes to speaking out against tyrants on the one hand while empowering them with the other. Or is this as silly as pointing out environmentalists who drive their cars to climate change rallies?

Just like you I suppose.

C'mon, get to the point.

Not if they.counter with a tariff on US imports. I think the world should be rallying around Mexico myself. The thought that Canada might stab Mexico in the back sickens me.

I suggest we start using the word asshole in place of racist. Seems more to the point.

So Harper was planning on selling it to Blue China? The fact China is the likeliest market for any oil coming west is IMO the 2nd most important reason for not building any more capacity to do so.

That's not what your cite says. You got your alternative facts and then you got your alternative interpretations.

Don't send the bill to Mexico, it doesn't sound like they have any intention of paying for that f"°king wall.

Well, at least we have the benefit of more clearly seeing what's coming. Passes DOP some taco chips, and then belches.

No, I'll not be getting back to you, either you can think critically or you can't. Either you've made yourself aware of the fraudulent things members of the media and the Hillary team was doing, or you haven't. And sadly, most of the left is probably in the same denial condition as you. I thought they would have worked through the 5 steps by now, but we have mass dysfunction, clinging to denial like a warm blanket. But that will all get fixed soon.

It was all in the wikileaks headlines. So you're saying that the typical lefty has no idea what was in the Wikileaks? http://townhall.com/columnists/johnhawkins/2016/10/29/the-5-biggest-revelations-about-hillary-clinton-from-wikileaks-n2238298 http://observer.com/2016/11/new-dnc-emails-expose-more-dnc-media-clinton-campaign-collusion/ There's many more than that, but you'll have to read the links yourself.

A few people took issue with me, but my main points are not refuted. The MSM was colluding with Hillary's campaign to get her elected, and now cry foul about someone trying to do the same thing, since they were beat at their own game. Obama has been a pushover for Iran, Russia, China, Syria and Benghazi. Now in the twilight of his last days, he grows some cajones and wants a report of the hacking before he leaves office. Sound like an attempt to stay in office? Apparently there can be grounds for such a procedure. Obama hates the CIA, but then holds up their views on the Russian hacking as solid gold. What the hell is that? Now Congress is saying that their committee on the election/wiki leaks thing was never told by the CIA that Russia was the likely culprit. They've called on the CIA to come back and give another report, but the CIA is refusing! So this means that someone is leaking CIA inside info to the Washington Post. Folks, step back from your biases for a minute, and just take a look at the big picture. This could get really ugly. People trying to influence how the Electorial college votes, strategies to take it out of the EC's hands. More riots, mass unrest, etc.

Yeah, it's not easy for some lefties to stay on topic what with all the hand wringing. I think Trump may do this kind of deal periodically until he can get the tax rates and such adjusted. Sunny ways!
