Memes are uninteresting. Use your words.

Without Trump, there is no Republican Party. They have no other figures as powerful with as strong a message. And with another Democrat, there won't be an America. This place will be Venezuela with a multi trillion dollar national debt. What America should be saying to Republicans is GET YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASSES AND PUSH THE MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN THEME AND QUIT TRYING TO BE FRIENDS WITH THE DEMONAZIS. Trump is the best president of the 21st Century. He belongs in that office. Get over yourselves, Romneys.

'Life only as a burden.' Pre-WW2 propaganda in support of Nazi Germany's new euthanasia program. The claim being that it's all done for humanitarian reasons...and at the request of the suffering...of course. Mention of the financial savings it would provide Germany was touted, as well. Doctors involved were legally protected from any form of prosecution if 'mistakes' were made. But this time it's totally different. Right?

I believe it's both richer and more rewarding to come to one's own purpose in life. The only people who need to imagine a heavenly father to assign purpose and meaning to their lives are those who think like children. Which, again, I'm okay with. If you need the crutch, by all means lean on it. Just don't use it as a bludgeon against the rest of us. The "truth" you imagine probably feels very real to you, especially after long exposure, but it's not truth for the rest of us, so don't force it's precepts upon us.

I read it the day it was published, and what I remember from it was that absolutely nothing in the article would lead a rational mind to the hysterical thread title you posted here. Nobody here is surprised though, because you just can't help yourself.

Well that’s pretty heavy handed. Perhaps you could link to where this was said if you’re so adamant about it. All those Canadians who lost their jobs because of vaccine mandates would suggest a conspiracy to force people to knuckle under, when we’ve been taught all our lives in Canada ‘my body my choice’. Which obviously demonstrates the double standard pushed by our government, because either it is my body my choice or it isn’t. And stats clearly show that if you compare all deaths nation wide or world wide, in years before Covid to the Pandemic years, no jump in deaths occurred in 2020 or 2021. Plus, nations like India and several in Africa successfully fought off Covid waves using alternative medicines, and this happy news WAS suppressed by media around the world. And disputed, and ‘fact checked’, but the raw numbers, or what we call the science, clearly demonstrated the success. Drugs like Ivermectin were and are helpful against Covid. Horse Dewormer, the media shrieked. Yet Ivermectin’s use on humans won a Nobel Peace Prize in 2015 for the saving of human lives. But that’s suppressed because it goes against the narrative. Same with how useless masks were. Useless, but they made you feel safer, like a security blanket. But they don’t stop the virus, it’s too small and gets sucked right through the masks most people were wearing. Yet I see people today, walking around outside alone, wearing non N95 masks because they believe in a conspiracy theory. Want another conspiracy theory? Our government was saying you should still get a vaccine even if you already had Covid and carry the antibodies. Because the vax would still protect you more than your own antibodies. That us out and out bull sh*t. But you won’t believe in antibody protection because you’d rather believe in a conspiracy theory.

Trudeau's solution to the mentally ill's strain on health care is to kill them. What kind of sick society are we turning in to? https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-maid-canada-mental-health-law/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter

I don’t think that’s a positive message at all. It might work for him; I mean, calling Mexicans rapists worked for Donald Trump. But there’s absolutely nothing positive of unifying about being “anti-woke,” because when you’re anti-something, you aren’t “for” anything. We need racial harmony, not division. Yes, the message could work but it’s not one I’d get behind because it is divisive and negative.

Too bad YOU and Trump (as usual) have NO EVIDENCE to prove "illegal" votes were counted. Trump tried 60+ times to prove that in court AND FAILED. When you have NO EVIDENCE of FRAUD, all you have is the CERTIFIED VOTE COUNT. But I am smart enough to know that FACT makes NO DIFFERENCE TO YOU. You will just keep making EVIDENCE FREE ridiculous claims here.

Lord love a duck. It was Trudeau’s soft on China approach that got us in bed with China, including on 5G. The US move on Meng forced the issue on Canada’s loyalties. Harper was wise to be hawkish on China. Trudeau is the teacher who starts off too permissive with the class then realizes he has to tighten up, but he doesn’t have China’s respect. Harper did.

You’re like many Canadians who don’t know just how permissive Canada is on abortion.

Babies are. For embryos it's up for debate, but the one thing that is certain is that a woman's rights supersede the embryo's. For fetuses it's a much greyer area. Nobody said that. There's quite a bit of legal precedent ruling in favor of an unborn fetus. The embryo is another story. This is an example of hysterics and hyperbole. ?

Proof? There’s no legal requirement not to abort in Canada up to the delivery date. Canada never drafted abortion legislation after the Supreme Court legalized abortion. What’s more, Trudeau requires all Liberal party members to be pro choice under these extremely permissive conditions. He also claims to be Catholic. What a terrible, hypocritical person. Anyone who supports such a ban on people voting with their conscience is a terrible person. Canada’s assisted suicide, soon to be the most permissive in the world, is emblematic of the same nihilistic and unethical culture. To think Canada once had moral authority in the world... Watching our government pontificate as though it still does is painfully embarrassing. Even sadder are the delusional fans of this government who cheerlead the grotesque charade.

No reason to believe ^this I DIOTIC OPINION. Sure we.do. For example, I think you're an I DIOT because of the stupid name calling you post HERE. That would be YOU. Conservatives are actually a MINORITY here. Proof is the last election. ? And that Trump lost in 2020 by 7 MILLION VOTES

NATO is the only reason Russia lets us pretend we own the north. We certainly have no military which could do a single thing to them if they decided they wanted to start drilling for oil there.

So you’re fine with running an 8 and a half month old “foetus” through a rotating slicer. Evil and disgusting.

A baby has Charter protections, a foetus doesn't.

So babies aren’t humans and aren’t entitled to Charter protections? So even when it’s clear that a premature baby can survive outside the womb that baby has zero rights or protections? This is an example of the moral repugnance that’s the norm in Canada today. Zero protection for unborn babies up until the expected delivery date.

Why can’t each individual come up with their own purpose?

You just confirmed how evil and corrupt the system is. The Charter is not protecting all people, but you somehow try to justify it.

Yes, abortion is genocide. The unborn are people too and under the Charter Section 7 that you referred to, the unborn should be protected. Their life is just as sacred as other people who are already outside the womb. Unfortunately, human life is not respected in the government or legal system for all people. Human life begins before birth. This is biblical as well as historical. Our system is evil and corrupt. Using "capacity" is just an excuse for a major failure in the health care system. Ask anyone or any politician and they will tell you the health care system is failing. Putting thousands of people on waiting list is not treating everyone equally. It is discrimination against people with serious medical problems such as cancer or heart conditions, etc. Liberal and Socialist governments promised public health care for everyone, but failed to deliver. They did not put enough resources into it long ago and it is failing. Their solution is to discriminate against certain classes or age groups of people.

This is a necro of a 16 year old thread and likely a phishing attempt. ?

Abortion = genocide? ? Abortion rights are protected by Section 7 of the Charter, protecting the life, liberty and security of every individual (including WOMEN). Fortunately for us, the Bible isn't the final legal authority in Canada! C A P A C I T Y

What lies? The experts I follow have been right about everything. The experts you follow and support have been wrong and they permanently damaged and killed people who had no risk of covid. I supported none of the madness because I followed science. You supported and cheered on all of the madness because you were too intellectually lazy to check things out. Why would I need amnesty?

Your indictment of white men is RACIST. You are a racist. (We all knew that. Wokeism is basically RACISM.)

Very true.

Sadly, you are absolutely correct. "It's a place where people who aren't of sound mind are empowered by the state to take their own lives and is labeled healthcare." The moral and political landscape of this country has changed so dramatically over the last few years that it's almost impossible to see the remnants of what used to be.

I grew up in a religious household and did seminary training, scripture work, etc. I was probably 12 when I realized the whole thing was an exercise in circular logic and couldn't stand up to even the slightest logical probing. I realized that the world was full of people of differing beliefs (thousands before Christianity and there will be thousands after) who all think that their god is the real deal. In the best case scenario, one of them managed to get it right, but the odds aren't good. Far, far more likely that *none* of them are right. As is often said, the difference between an atheist and a devout believer is just one religion. The believer thinks all the religions of the world are false except for their own. The atheist has that one is as false as the others. You deal in feelings? If you want to feel "proof" that there's not divine being shepherding the righteous, go visit a pediatric cancer ward. Look those kids in the eye and reconcile your loving father slowly, painfully torturing and killing the most innocent among us while their parents sob and pray quietly in the corner. All part of His divine plan, and there's a quota for the misery and suffering of children.

We have an option. The cheapest and likely the most effective is a nuclear deterrence. My point above was that there are so many demands on government resources, Defence is a lower priority. We may become involved in a war at some future date, but people need healthcare now. Mitigation of climate change needs to happen now. So, do we pour money into a defence budget for a hypothetical war and triage healthcare and say to hell with our future generations? That is a question voters will answer, as they have in the past.

There are a LOT of religions in the world, all claiming to be correct, and viewing those outside of the faith as blinded, lost, etc. You know what none of them have? Any evidence whatsoever. Just multitudes of credulous people banding together because someone told them "this is the real truth." Your faith is not special. You haven't been selected by a divine being as one of the chosen few with the right answers to the meaning of life, the universe and everything. The universe is a mostly dark, mostly empty place and the only thing in it that cares about humans are other humans. There's still time for you to change and get past the hokum and start living life for your fellow human beings and not for books or pamphlets idolized by simple men seeking easy answers.

Saved from what? Do you understand the difference between faith and science? Science is universal because it is based on testable empirical evidence and PHYSICAL LAWS. Religious FAITH has no such immutable foundation. There are MANY DIFFERENT such belief systems and there is no reason to believe YOURS is superior or more correct than any of the OTHERS.

Obviously they don't, but I don't think Canada really needs to worry about the puerile perceptions of poverty stricken and backwards dictatorships and third world crapholes. Nope. It still doesn't. Getting stoned kills you. Showing up to a drag show, at worse, looks odd and weird. If Trudeau brought an entourage of drag queens to Saudi Arabia, then their opinion would matter. Outside of that, their fragile moral sensibilities couldn't matter less to what we do here in Canada. They certainly don't give a shit what we think. Perhaps you haven't noticed the changing times. There's a code of conduct, for sure, but it is fortunately not based on your vague personal judgements of what's "appropriate". So far the only consequence for this that you've been able to offer is that the Supreme Ayatollah might not respect us as much. As I said, perception isn't everything. Putin spent the last 10 years cultivating a culture of machismo and genius. Through his poor decisions, he's upended that perception over a few months and is now widely considered a paranoid, lame-duck President on a ticking clock. His decisions were what mattered. You know what had nothing to do with it? Cringe-worthy photo ops of him riding horseback and topless, showing off his saggy man-boobs.

taxme never posts links, wonder why. Maybe he doesn't know how.

Not saying that at all, I have reservations about it myself. If you read all my posts from the beginning you would understand that. I'm just saying it is worthy of discussion. Linking Trudeau with the Final Solution is just ingenuous BS that means nothing.

Once the wall is built i think the US will solve most of that problem for us. Thats a myth, all these pay increases are going to be passed on to the consumer, how does that decrease the price of goods. That and let's remember out nation is driven by the old almighty dollar, it rules everything, it is our built-in greed that prevents us from being completive with 3 world countries. Another myth, already proven in Afghanistan where just over 10,000 terrorist gave the entire NATO armies plus a few others a run for their money. 1000 determined troops could bring Canada to their knees in less than a week. The last ICE storm in Ontario and Quebec took all of the Army, 1/2 the air force and a great big handful of the navy to contain...Winnipeg floods were the same, these are domestic operations, turn all of that into a shooting match and poof total panic, total failure. if it has worked in dozens of other nations, why could it not happen in Canada. Canada has regulated the Army reserves to defend our north, thats should tell you how much priority we place on our Artic sovereignty, The liberals are going to spend money on Artic defenses, sometime in the future the last time they were upgraded was in the 80's. Put that into context the Russians have spent hundreds of billions modernizing their northern military presence. Even the Chinese NAVY has more ice breakers than we do, seen any ice burgs in Chinese's post cards. This is a typical Canadian attitude when it comes to defense, 1. Nobody is going to attack Canada; the US will protect us... 2... The only nations capable of attacking us is the US, we don't stand a chance. If the US does start pouring in defense dollars into Canada's protect then you can bet, we will lose our sovereignty pretty fast it is also a cope out because we are to cheap to even protect our own borders, thats something to be proud off, considering NOV 11 just past and they died defending this country form enemies foreign and domestic. i know F*** them right it all comes down to money right. Once again we in the last 3 years have doubled the national debt, well over 600 billion ,nobody blinked an eye except conservatives, budgets balance themselves, and we can print money until we break the glass ceiling. another 600 bil will buy a lot of healthcare, education, security apparatus but all those words taste like *hit, even thinking about it taste bad for Canadians. We don't need a huge Military, what we do need is one twice the size of our current one, with an overseas presence or major base like German for a staging area. well-funded so they can train often, and train with the best equipment available in the free world, Canada use to have one of the best trained militarys in the western world, now our guys are lucky to fire their personal weapons once or twice a year.. hard to become an expert on that level of training. i'll translate that for you back in the day we used to train 8 months out of the year...Those days were away from your family, actually doing combat training. does not include personal trades training courses for yourself, nor holidays, or leave/ holidays. now today soldiers are lucky to get 1 month a year to train, on average, some are receiving much less. And on a last note todays military you can wear a dress whenever you want, wear a mixed male and female clothing, you can have multi color hair ,wear it as long as you want, short as you want, including in a man bun, you can wear as much make up as you want, no restrictions clown faces are allowed if you want, jewelry as much as you want, want a huge gold chain to be gangster go for it, want multi piercings again go for it, and that's just for the men, the women have no restrictions as well including beards, Todays military you can be anything you want, when you want. Add this to cancel culture and poof you got a military that anyone can do whatever they want to, as supervisors are afraid to discipline anyone becasue of the fear of getting canceled... Army guy your full of Crap, this is not what is happening, ask any one with 10 or more years in, ask them how moral is, and what the release rate is, why are units below 60% manning in some cases well below that... The media has already been screaming articles on a regular basis and the majority of Canadians either can't read or are to stupid or there is nothing in it for them. This is the military that Canadians want, but hey, your sons and daughters are going to have to pick up the slack, and like any conflict before they will pay the price in their blood, but shit there is always NOV 11 to remember them right. Pay now or later, either way there is a price to pay.

In infallible because I say I'm infallible. This logic is airtight. And infallible.

Both the EU and UK data are showing a 16% increase in excess deaths, mostly from heart-related issues. The excess deaths are amongst young adults and working age adults, who faced statistically zero risk of covid death but are now dying from....what? - truly terrifying. This is now being investigated and questioned. Not in Canada, of course. The UK Parliament lumped Canada's covid response in with China's. This is now our international reputation. It's embarrassing. Trudeau can't stop embarrassing us on the world stage.

So, he is embarrassing because he appears on a comedy show, like Harper, Wall, Clinton, and Nixon. Was President Trump am embarrassment? President Reagan? Governor Schwarzenegger? Lets look at the leaders our Prime Minister is supposed to impress. President Biden? President Putin? President Putin is a man living in fear. Who is he afraid of? He is frightened of the President of a little country on the western border of Russia. Ukraine has a slightly larger population than Canada, but it has put the fear of God into the mighty KGB wannabee President Putin, who commands one of the most powerful military forces in the world. Who is the President of the Ukraine? Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a comedian, like Brent Butts, Rick Mercer, RuPaul, or President Reagan. Yet, President Zelenskyy is one of the most respected leaders in the world today.

I have the solution right here, and most accomplished teachers would agree with me. Dismantle the Department of Education in Washington. It is a HUGE waste of taxpayer money. It does not educate ONE CHILD. It merely vomits mandates and clutters up the landscape. And thanks to this unelected senile pedphile, the Department of Education now is saddled with someone who believes school discipline is racism. That is an indictment, a bell that cannot be un rung. It is wrong. It is ignorant. Oh, and only about 7 percent of all education funding comes from the DOE, but most of the mandates do. The lion's share of educating funding occurs at the county level, through property taxes. That is why Orange County in Florida could have so many dysfunctional ghetto schools, while neighboring Seminole County (with affluent neighborhoods like Heathrow and Sweetwater) have brand new schools, including Lake Brantley High, (one of the top high schools in the country, in terms of college placement.) There's NOTHING that can be done on a national level. But when you have clowns there saying that school discipline is racist, it hurts EVERYONE, especially the blacker schools.

Veterans Affairs offered a wounded veteran medically assisted suicide as a "solution" that would never have been considered in the Canada I grew up in that would never have even been conceived of in the Canada I grew up in in the Canada I grew up in, this 2022 we live in now, would be a dark dystopic future

Maybe stop relying so much on anti-western propaganda. Putin can’t be allowed to invade and conquer Ukraine at will. People tried making the same arguments as you when Hitler invaded his neighbours also. History has proven those people wrong and Putin’s invasion of Ukraine to forcibly unite people of similar ethnicity and for the glory of mother Russia is no different

He's the avocado toast sorta fascist.

Why you take his persona so personally is a head shaker to me. These politicians are figureheads. If you dislike them so viscerally, do you like some of them too? Strange. As for global trade, the centrist parties embraced it for twenty years for good reason. But they're now "friendshoring" for good reason. One thing that stands out for me is smug second guessing mixed with economic nationalism. That ere are trade offs to everything. What many anti-globalist types are proposing, in effect, is increased government intervention in the economy.

Nobody HAS to lie. It's just a choice you've made. I gave you the chart directly from the FED. The other is simply because I don't trust that you know who was president in a given year. Because it's factually correct that Democrats reduce deficits over their terms while Republicans generally grow them. Clinton turned the Bush 1 deficits into a surplus. Obama (the biggest Democrat deficits) took office amidst the economic crash of the great recession and after the Bush 2 deficits from his first year, decreased them over the next 8. Trump grew the deficit again over his years and Biden is again reducing Republican deficits. This is all easily verifiable fact if you simply look at the data from the Fed or CBO or anywhere else. You're welcome to debate the "why" of any given point, but the facts and figures are simply what they are. And your buddy Reagan, despite preaching fiscal responsibility, ran huge deficits and is the first modern president to blow up the national debt. But hey, at least his term coincided with a robust economy (for which he should've thanked Carter and Volcker.

"Quit the UN" .... "Quit NATO" What is the vision proposed for us ? I just don't understand... it sounds vaguely agrarian.

Let’s recap your arguments in this thread: Fag means cigarette, so you can call gay people fags. Everyone in history was a bigot and racist, so it’s ok for you to be a bigot and racist. Gays call each other a fag, so it’s ok for you to call gay people fags. I’m a bigot for being intolerant of racists and bigots, and that is the exact the same thing. So, you can be a bigot and a racist. Democrats were racist, so that’s an excuse for you to be one. Did I capture all the lame excuses @reason10 used for being a bigot? Please add to the list if I missed any.

Do you not understand context? Do you think they would find it acceptable if you called them a fag?

Greta should come try and survive a Sask winter without the use of fossil fuels

Must be a slow day in the media, when what's her face makes the news once again, this time promoting her new book, and her new direction in life. Shes pretty much pissed off with everyone in the world, The best thing the west could do for this chick is to get her some help for her mental issues, instead of using her to promote a climate crisis that not many world leaders or nations really care about in the first place.
