If this candidate is still representing the Liberals by the time of the Election then JT is a massive hypocrite. This post should have also sealed the race for Jagmeet Singh who actually needs some good news.

Same for Trump....and me. Let Chrystia Freeland fight Ukraine's battles on Canada's dime, not mine.

Ivan is contained for nuclear conflagration....eastern Europe is NATOs problem and overreach. Better pay up....

There was a time when Canada played the ideal Robin to the USA's Batman. Now Canada thinks everybody has the right to be Batman...

If it was that easy, then NATO/NORAD deadbeat Canada would be spending more on defense. Go find a new hegemon...maybe China.

As I said, there is no signal, signals can be imitated too. There is only one way, just be as unfailingly honest as you possibly can be. There's no quick fix or magic bullet, honesty itself is the answer to your question.

And a last one, the cherry on top. 'So this is what I got out of this video, 1. No man should ever try to approach a woman about anything or else some random man will jump out and shove you and be like "Not cool". 2. You should never try to tell a girl to just smile and have fun while at a party to try and cheer her up or else another man will jump out and call you out. 3. Boys should never be boys and wrestle around and have fun (I'll be sure to ask for forgiveness tonight since my brother and I did that a lot when we were kids). 4. It is never a woman's fault and women are never abusive to men. That is non existent. and 5. You should just avoid talking to women all together so you can avoid being on the toxic masculinity list. Okay, I got it. Now I need to go divorce my wife before I get accused on man handling. Thank you!'

I do for the most part. Every day I see something that tells me I should be ashamed to be 1) a man 2) white 3) whatever they can come up with

What about it? Did he ever suggest 'old stock' Canadians should vote for the Tories? He only ever used that phrase to differentiate between immigrants and those whose ancestry is here. And it wasn't done during an election campaign.

Polling shows that Trump is owning this Shutdown. Trump is actually the one that's rejected any compromise.

Only to some. As I previously asked, what purpose does it serve to not want to know the truth? Let's see how long it takes before authorities disclose the results of the police investigation into the shooter now that the SIU's limited role, which had effectively smothered public access to information for so long, has been removed from the equation. It will reveal the extent to which our authorities are willing to be transparent about such issues.

It's a fair question everywhere else. Here, it's a "racist" question.

Cite context? Harper certainly broadened the ethnic "Big Tent" element of the CPC. Any attack that it's a party of angry white men is just an old Liberal mantra.

Boges I love you but... why is Jagmeet running in his seat in BC? He lives two doors down from me in Mississauga. Why is he not running in my riding or in Ontario? He went to the largest Seikh riding he could find to guarantee he would be elected. Yes this Chinese candidate engaged in clumsy ethnic pandering. She is one of many who does. I don't excuse it but its so common why act surprised? All three parties pander and recruit candidates with profiles based on the ethnic ghettoes in the ridings. Come on let's get real. The whole system of elections is geared on ethnic pandering. It is a joke for Jasmeet to say he is running on behalf of all Canadians. Bullshit. He went to a Seikh ghetto to appeal to Seikhs to guarantee he gets elected, end of story. He's an ethnic whore. This is someone who said he would run in Quebec. Yah fat chance. Seriously, you don't think the Conservatives will run tokens in ethnic ridings? You thing only the Liberals and NDP do? Please.

Keep the government shutdown or we'll release the Pee Tapes.

FN wants to buy the pipeline! Whom are we kidding here? This is another shell game! Canadian taxpayers bought the pipeline - and, Canadian taxpayers will be the one buying it too for FN! Double whammy for taxpayers! Lol. Canadians are surely taking a terrible beating from Trudeau government! There's no letting up, eh......taking us through the grinder!

Yeah well your Anti-Hamilton tariffs hurt America even more than they hurt my hometown, suck it Yankee, shoot yourselves in the foot, enjoy those higher steel prices. Y'all did it under Bush 43 and the same shit happened, but America is a slow learner sometimes, y'all musta forgot.

Wait. Is he a right wing terrorist or a muslim terrorist? In the same article you posted: As police continued to search for a motive, the newly released details of the investigation show that police seized videos about Iraq and 9/11 conspiracy theories in Hussain’s bedroom. The DVDs included films by American conspiracy theorist Alex Jones such as The Road to Tyranny, which promotes the claim of government involvement in Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. A popular right-wing conspiracist, Jones and his Infowars show were banned from Apple, Facebook and YouTube last year. Other DVDs found in the apartment were titled Loose Change and 9/11 in Plain Site. Both also offer up discredited conspiracies about al-Qaida’s attacks on the United States.

There's a good column by Brian Lee Crowley on the G&M website that serves as an indictment of sorts of Trudeau's obsequious China policy, noting that China's current strategy directly relates to its perception of Trudeau's and Canada's weakness. This should be required reading for all voters in this election year. Now we know not only that Trudeau wasn't ready for the PM role but, even worse, that his weakness has seriously undermined Canada's reputation and interests. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-china-smells-weakness-so-its-picking-on-canada/

Simple maths really. Those who oppose Brexit oppose any deal because they dont want Brexit. Those who want Brexit dont want a crap deal. Hence the offered deal was rejected in parliament. May's days are numbered. Actually, all these European Ms, Merkel. Macron and May, are political corpses. At least Merkel had her powerful moments, which cant be said of the other two Ms.

There's a good column by Michele Mandel on the Toronto Sun site about today's revelations, which notes among other things that it's clear the police were (are?) aware of the possibility that a terrorist motive might apply. She points out that commentators who've raised the possibility of a terrorist motive have been demonized for so doing but concludes her piece by asking "isn’t there enough [evidence] here to also wonder whether there was more than mental illness at play on July 22?" Given emerging evidence, you've got to wonder why some apparently still don't want answers about the possible role of a terrorist motive. Rational, objective and inquiring minds would surely want to know, right?

The status which the Hegemon is trying to reclaim, is the status of a Flight to Quality constitutional Hegemon rather than a sad and failing Military Adventurist Hegemon, and that's a good thing, we should help them, because they are the only thing between us and the totalitarian abyss.

Actually, America remains the most desired nation for immigrants...for over 100 years. Try again....

Buddy, America is struggling to maintain its status and Trump is disliked internationally. Try bombing your way to success. Europe has nukes too. No one cares. It’s all about providing a better life for people. The rest is Cold War noise. Young families couldn’t give a shit. Run your country well and work with like-minded countries to create synergies that benefit everyone.

And Quebec is a Hydroelectric power whose interests actually conflict with hydrocarbons, because as the Enviromental Movement punishes Canada for hydrocarbon crime, Quebec is getting punished by that too, even tho their source of power, prosperity and interests is clean free running water generating power for the Hegemon in a contractual agreement with the Cree Nation under the Le Paix de Braves treaty.

No, not any more than was missing in the past. "Human rights" has often been a political football for more narrow and selfish interests.

Again, the guy who set this in motion is Roger Stone, Trump is Roger Stone's sockpuppet, and Roger Stone is the guy the Democucks are really after, because all of this is inclusive to being a Nixonian Plumber, and Stone is also paying them back for driving him out of power in Washington, just from the shadows using Trump as his proxy.

Trump is good for ratings. Entertaining but also dangerous. Ultimately he needs to go. You need a better president.

In broad strokes, it's a cultural difference, the Americans are gunfighters by nature, it's a gunfighter culture, their nation was founded and has grown to becomes the greatest Hegemon in the history of the world, largely as a product of gunfighting. To Americans, guns are simply tools which solve problems. Canadian gun control actually has its origin in America, because America invented gun control and is not actually opposed to it, they simply oppose federal gun control, see; Declaration of Independence Canada adopted American local gun control laws, but imposed them nationally, but not to disarm gunfighters, the purpose of Canadian gun control is to disarm the Indians, it has simply mission creeped from what it was adopted for in 1885

What double standard ? The United States executes prisoners for crimes, just like China. I already pointed out that Canada has refused to extradite criminals back to the U.S. because it has a "different" standard. As for this meth smuggling dummy, he will not be rescued by the ridiculous expectation that all Canadians should only be subjected to Canadian justice and punishments, regardless of which country they commit crimes in. Also, LAV exports to the Saudis appears to be more important than "human rights" for Canada.

Oh great...so now America is supposed to be the parental function for nations with less power and influence, like Canada ? American power does not exist as a force for good....it exists as a force for American interests, and that does not include stupid Canadian drug smugglers. The U.S. also executes convicted criminals....just like China.

And now Iran is even more of a third world shit hole. You think that was by accident? My beef is with people who criticize American hegemony and run to america asking for aid when the baddies bully them... like how hypocritical can you get.

People can post and debate things without being a total asshole about it ... that would be a good start. And I think that's the real problem with the debate here. There are some topics I want to get into but the quality of posts deters me from jumping in as the thread has gone to shit already at that stage.
