So you feel that all political leaders should be required to go to gay pride parades? Have I got that right? What about Muslims and Hindus and Orthodox Jews? What else? Attend BLM protests and bend the knee? Is that a requirement too? The Harper government DID, in fact, fund contraceptives, just not abortion. And I'm still waiting for you to show me how they forced their religious views on you.

I don't always agree with Coyne, but I do with this. O'Toole, after tracking to the Right during the election for leader, seems to have dumped everything he said overboard and is now tracking strongly to the Left. In fact, he reminds me very much of the PC leaders of the past. No vision, no ideology, no goals other than power. He's trying to be Liberal Light, just like the PCs did. But as Coyne points out, that has never worked very well, and has left the PCs/Conservatives with little success over the decades, and even less influence. Can anyone point to anything Stephen Harper's nine years in office changed or accomplished? Any legacy? Any shifts in the policies or governance of this country not immediately reversed by his successor? I can't. Stephen Harper ruled with one goal in mind, to stay in power. That's all he cared about. And it seems to be all O'Toole cares about. The Conservatives would seem to occupy a unique position in Canadian political life, combining (as I’ve written before) the commitment to principle of the Liberals with the electoral success of the NDP. The party has taken each new defeat as a signal to reinvent itself yet again, jettisoning policies it had only recently adopted and adopting new ones just in time to toss them aside. It is perpetually dismayed to discover the public does not find this approach terribly persuasive – with the result that the party has neither governed much, historically, nor been particularly influential. So unsuccessful has the party been that many Conservatives have convinced themselves the problem is not with the messengers but the message – their inability to persuade Canadians to support either their principles or the party has not been because they have generally not had any principles and done a miserable job of selling the ones they had, but because the country is innately hostile to both, party and principle. “Canada,” as more than one Conservative has put it, “is a Liberal country.” Which is, at least, a belief system, even if it’s one they share with the Liberals. https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-the-tories-reinvent-themselves-again-only-this-time-as-more-of-the/

No, they are just Canadians. Is Trump a traitor for evacuating Canadians from China before their own government could do so ?

Canadians are weaponizing healthcare benefits to stop snowbirds' travel.

TDS is real.

We're arresting the poor buggers that get caught trying to wiggle their way to Alaska... Yeah...we have our priorities straight. You have reached the Blame Trump Hotline...your wait-time is 30 minutes. (YMCA starts to play)

Biden has already said he will break off the KXL pipeline in Canada's ass, and the Democrat governor of Michigan just pulled pipeline easement permits from Enbridge. Ontario won't like that. Canada is America's closest AND oldest enemy.

It's all good....Canadian snowbirds are flying south just like they always do, giving Trudeau and his government's no travel recommendation the finger while doing so. Trump's Florida is very popular as usual.

So much anger. Don't riot...

All the trimmings...love it. As Shady points out...investing the pensions of Canadians in the Communist Chinese coal industry. They hardly ever use slave labour. And they're totally in line with environmental standards and practices! Tiananmen what? Isn't that a sort of tasty Oriental pastry? Yeah...don't be trustin' us (collectively) for sheet, my friend. Our Canadian holier-than-thou criticisms are those of chumps who know hockey only matters so much...but want to feel big...as long as plenty of other holier-than-thou types have one's back. All while harkening back to D-Day or some other ancient history like it was today's policy. And that slippery little f***** will probably die in office, too...or replaced by a clone. We rule for life here...father to son. Hope your weekend is productive. New big-azz gas guzzlin' vehicle here...it's like Christmas.

Republicans flip another house seat. Now at +8.

Just spent the last 10 minutes yelling at my grandma for voting for Joe Biden. Then, after leaving the cemetery, I went and had a spot of breakfast. ---YouTube Comment

At First Bull Run, there were no standard uniforms. While many Federal troops had received the Springfield musket, most still used a variety of less modern firearms. On the Rebel side, the hunting musket and shotgun were the common weapons...though some better units had been armed with the Brown Bess...from the 1700s. Zouave mercenaries fought on BOTH sides and refused to fight each other. Cases of friendly fire were rampant...entire regiments engaging with other friendly regiments....ooops. By Second Bull Run...about a year later...they had all that sorted out.

The real scandal is Conservative politics destroyed an effective Canadian charity that helped young people. FriendsofWE.org

Biden is apparently thinking of making Hillary Ambassador to the UN. Make War not Love... This is just Obama's Third Term...providing the instigators manage to finish this coup.

Under Trump there is motivation to get the vaccine distributed as soon as possible, to those who need it most. Certain Democrats seem like they want to wait until Joe Biden is at the helm. Politiciing the virus, and now the cure.

Charlie Angus NDP Liberals are now arguing about underwear as part of their 33 hour filibuster to stop investigation into the WE Scandal. Underwear. I kid you not.

Yes, and they all worked together in mathematical impossibility to bring about the outcome that is statistically impossible? 0% rejection rate? I suggest you give this some more thought. Maybe check out a video by Dr Shiva doing simple data analysis on 4 Michigan counties that had their voting outcomes do what is impossible without tampering of the electronic voting systems.

Comrade Argus ? Of course. We took a blood vow to Stalin together at the Tim Hortons near the Milton Enroute.

Apparently ALL for Biden...which is just impossible statistically.

Democrats fear nobody will attend a Joe Biden inauguration...

Oh, there’s voter fraud alright. The only question is can they get the evidence. Here’s one simple fact that proves it. Every election there are mail in votes, and the historical rejection rate is 1%, for various legitimate reasons. in Pennsylvania, there were a little over 2.6 million mail in votes. The usual rejection rate would mean about 26,000 votes got rejected, and since a lot of first time voters used a mail in ballot, it would go above 1%. But the official number of rejected ballots in PA this election was 951. That’s .00036%. The numbers don’t lie.

Well, regardless of your personal opinion of him, clearly his racist blackface past is acceptable to millions of Liberal voters. I guess "homophobic bigots" are just lower on the political food chain ?

Where did I say I support the Liberals? The Liberals are vile corrupt traitors. If there were an election today i'd likely vote CPC. That doesn't mean I like religious nutters.

This one's self-explanatory. Compilation of Voter Fraud Videos:

But racist blackface PMs are OK ?

Dow hits a record in response to Trump announcing the distribution of the coronavirus vaccine.

You just don't get it... Nobody on the Right trusts numbers or counts or polls or anything MSM... We should...but that confidence was destroyed. That YOUR confirmation bias allows you to still trust the numbers...polls...MSM...is not unusual. But the day will come...you're nothing special...remember that.

The way to talk about management is to use dashboards. That's what they use in business. A newspaper story of a think-tank is an old way. I didn't see some metrics I would expect but if they had a dashboard you could look up anything. I think the only way to talk about this is to not be partisan and to acknowledge our common 'values' then drill down on what that means. We all want 'fairness' 'value' 'efficiency'. But how to measure and what does it mean ?

Westcan, I get all your sentiments, I'm just saying the timing is not good. You can say the same thing on Nov 10 or Nov 12. There's a time and place for everything. Veteran and defence issues are at the bottom of Trudeau's priorities for this country clearly. If you actually read the budgets this gov will dedicates 70 pages to gender (feminist) issues and 3 pages to veteran support issues. I mean literally the last budget I read it was 3 pages. People risk their lives for this country and then live the rest of their lives with mental and physical injuries, we can give them more than 3 pages.

This is false....President Trump obviously deserves some credit for supporting and funding vaccine development, testing, and manufacturing on a very large scale, including Pfizer, so much so even Canada jumped on board and placed orders. Further, it is the Trump administration's FDA, CDC, and other regulatory agencies that provide the government framework for actions in the United States.

Welcome to the New America. It's like the Old America.
