The optics are likely reality with this one...corruption laid bare. I'm sure the Conservatives are going to push it come fall. And why not? If you're going to be self-serving crooks in Ottawa...learn to hide your crimes. Stupid Liberals...

Butts couldn't even lift Cheney's jock strap.

We all know that SNC-Lavalin is shady...that's a given. Canada wants to have its own Halliburton too. What Canada lacks is its own Dick Cheney.

You've gone too far n. Ease up. You and I know many Canadian war vets who would disagree with the above. Don't white wash them all as idiot puppets. Tell me if I am wrong if you want but Rear Admiral Murray and Commander Prentice were no puppets and neither was Air Marshall Edwards or Maj Gen. Hoffmeister for example. Yes the allied forces were loyal to the British command to an extent but come on we had some powerful men who did their own damn thing when they had to. I also think and you are well aware we considered Churchill our leader and our military was genuinely an admirer of Churchill and King George nnot McKenzie King who was an embarrassment. Back on topic our country was founded by people who wanted to keep paying taxes to King George. We rejected the gun in favour of North West Mounted Police with no We are a nation that went so far with Lester B. Pearson so as to reinvent the gunless soldier, the peacekeeper. Hell we love leaders that lisp like Lester and Justin or are close to their mothers like Justin and Willie McKenzie King. Hell our first Prime Minister was a projectile vomiter in Parliament-that's the only thing he shot off. Diefenbaker damn near striked out over John F's missiles. We do not embrace gun swagger. I think if anyone analyzes our military history, most of our generals and military leaders of W2 who made a difference never cared to suck up to anyone but did have a chain of command they honoured yes. I think you mistake our loyalty with sucking up. That was a genuine loyalty. No one told my father and his peers to suck up to any Brit. They genuinely admired Churchill and felt a genuine loyalty to the King. It kept some of them focused on what they were fighting for. The King of England was another understated quiet leader but he was a leader. He showed up in the bombings and he carried the weight his brother abandoned not with swagger but with quite dignity. Say what you want about Churchill but his persona was not flashy it was rough, brash, crude, but always respectful of the life of each soldier. He drank himself to oblivion worrying over how many people he was getting killed...and people knew that beneath the brave façade was a caring man a true antithesis to Hitler and Stalin.

Oh come on. Get with the paranoia. Smoke one of those legalized cigarettes. Z-man is smoking too many Liberal doobies.. Its clear Trudeau tried to pressure Judge Jody and she balked and walked. I doubt she runs next election. Watch her get a judgeship somewhere. I also think people need to take a long hard look at this elitist privileged snot Lord Justin of True-dough and toss him out on his ass next election. The pathetic attempt to pander to Chinese in BC on the weekend was about as pathetic as it gets. His pandering comments stereotype to such a degree I can not imagine how any person at his rally could have stood their grinning along with this idiot for photos. I am astonished after that last smiley idiot routine on Sunday China did not invade. Hell even Taiwan would have been tempted. He is the worst ethnic panderer I have ever witnessed. He makes the late Linda Lovelace look absolutely shallow.

I said that no one should fuck with a people’s self-determination and I stand by that. My statements were basically Canada’s official positions and historical record. They’re broad strokes positions. As always the devil is in the details. That’s where it breaks down into particular party or individual stances. Canada’s official stances have changed little from Mulroney to Trudeau.

Happiness is a warm fire and a comfortable chair when it's -25 out.

Well even a very scaled down US military combined with the UK, France, and other NATO members is plenty formidable. Canada is upping its military spending and should go further. I agree that Canada can do nothing to prevent US domestic gun purchases. We have our message and example, which does carry weight in media and statistical analysis. Data is powerful and America’s number of gun related deaths speaks volumes. Canadians respect that Americans choose their own reality.

Perhaps Trudeau will not tolerate uppity "aboriginals", considering how much the Trudeaus have done for them. /s

No, allowing our corporations to wheel and deal with dictators was the mistake - this is blow-back pure and simple, with a blast radius that leaves our entire country looking like the sap who lit the proverbial exploding cigar. We're all getting what we deserve.

Anti Semitism on the rise and also is now in U.S. Congress https://www.apnews.com/3778f241925f4df8816f5827cac2d19a

In my earlier post I asked if you were going to have a whip. You evaded the question that tells me the answer is yes. Making you no better than the garbage we have now.

People/stalkers are free to assign terms and impute actions/thoughts that are not there - it's a free country - more or less.

I mean, you've kind of outed yourself as being some sort of miseducated Millennial if you don't even know that Canada fought both world wars under British command, and the British fought the Second World War from 1943 onward under the American Supreme Allied Commander. Never mind your ridiculous assertion that Canada was somehow represented at Yalta by anyone other than Winston Churchill.

Third largest navy under British Command, the RCAF did not have any forces deployed to Europe, all Canadians airman deployed to Europe deployed as Royal Air Force. All Canadian squadrons in Europe were RAF squadrons. That's why all the squadrons are "400" prefix, 400 was the number the British applied to Canadian units in the RAF. Canada's lack of debt had nothing to do with Canada's total reliance on the Americans for Canada's economic well being, which preceded 1945, Canada made its peace and became a protectorate of the Americans when the Americans shelved their plans to invade and annex Canada, which they maintained until 1925. The Americans were of course totally capable of going it alone, they were not actually planning to occupy Europe indefinitely after the war, and in terms of the Soviet threat, America went with the hydrogen bomb as the solution to that. Which worked, except for the part where they almost destroyed themselves for West Berlin in October of 1962.

Far as I can tell, it's not Wall Street who are calling for Morneau to raise taxes, it's Occupy Wall Street which is demanding that. Trust me, Wall Street would be happy for Canada to massively cut taxes, that would incite Wall Street to invest in Canada, rather than now, where they are decamping to Mexico.

1775 was not a war against Canada, 1775 was a war against Westminster in London. 1812 was the war against Canada, but your armed brothers jumped to their deaths from the Heights of Queenston rather than be taken by the Grand River Mohawks.
