  1. But they need a sense of shared history, of pride in country. And when all they're being told every day is that the country's founding was illegitimate, that the land really belongs to the natives, that all our ancestors were scumbags, and that the country today is a racist hellhole, it's hard for the young in particular to feel any of that sense of shared history or pride.

  2. Because the PMO is using cabinet confidentiality to block the RCMP, like it said in the article, which I quoted for you, and then bolded. I guess that they can still do "an investigation", they just can't question the witnesses or look at evidence lol.

  3. I agree, when all you hear is the negative while the schools and media don't teach us or remind us of the positive, the only people making noise about history are those with gripes from the past. I don't blame those people hard done by for being angry at certain things, but what they need is justice, we don't have to feel shame and guilt for our entire existence, it's so dumb and destructive. Like a cancer. These people are out to destroy western civilization through their guilt.

  4. The MSM in Canada is so far left that they're officially a fringe group now. Canadians know more about the comical bimbo who accused Brett Kavanaugh of almost raping her than they know about our own PM's actual crimes.

  5. The person who can ultimately hold a majority government to task is the Queen. In Canada's case that responsibility is represented by the governor general. The problem with this is that the GG these days tends to be someone of little substance.. The exception being David Johnson. In order to hold the government to task the GG has to be a person of strength and confidence and a determination to embrace integrity. Romeo Leblanc was the last one before Johnson. I suppose ultimately the Queen can override the GG, if they won't do what is necessary and simply dismiss the government and call elections. Not something which can happen down south. It would have to be something of enormous consequence to cause her to do that however.

  7. The Prime Minister can be prosecuted for crimes. (S)he is simply a Member of Parliament who has been appointed to cabinet. It is essential to have Cabinet confidentiality. Cabinet documents and deliberations must remain confidential or government could not function. Don't forget that in the SNC controversy, the Crown Prosecutor's position was sustained and the Government's desire for a deferred prosecution was withdrawn. Former Minister Wilson-Raybould was re-elected.

  8. Some years ago, the Government was involved in the customs scandal. The Minister of Customs was accused of being "protectionist by day and a free-trader by night." The case was a smuggling ring that included the Minister. The PM faced a vote of censure that was likely to pass. He went to the Governor General and asked for a dissolution, but the GG refused, asserting the PM had to take his lumps in the House. The PM resigned and the GG appointed a new PM. The new Government fell soon after and the GG called an election. The voters had the opportunity to decide the issue and they sided with the former PM. 1. The police were able to investigate the Minister 2. The GG held the PM accountable. 3. The voters decided the issue.

  10. I'm sure he made his peace with dying, does not take long in an active war zone, where you see death and destruction 24 hours a day.. where you could die just taking a shit, or brushing your teeth... once you can over come the fear of dying the rest is easy, well it puts the little stuff into perspective like the dude in the grocery store "not worth the effort" besides you then you have the cops asking all kinds of questions "they don't understand" they see you as just another criminal with PTSD" charging you with assault, getting a criminal record, going to court ya not worth the effort. You can't fight city hall, or the will of the majority in this case the way the electoral system is set up... I've come to terms with it some what, we do have a voice but nobody is willing to hear anything from the right, and the right is not strong enough to take back this country... I hope and pray that one day someone with charisma, knowledge, common sense, takes the reigns and gathers the best minds this country has to offer and puts together a team that can bring us back from the brink...and does what is best for the country, not special interest groups, or people with power and money, or the power over the media. I wish you the best, my days of defending are over i have no time or effort to give this country any more.
