Your the #1 poster on this forum. All garbage. All the time.

If Elizabeth May cared about the Green party she'd go into hiding. Even I'd like to see the Green party have a better leader, if only to be less of an embarrassment to our country. It would be a bonus if they could siphon more of the 'tard vote away from the village ijjit. Do you honestly still believe that the covid "vaccine" prevents infection and stops the spread? Do you still think that H2H transmission of covid isn't happening, or that it was sensible for The WHO to tell us all to bet on that? Do you still think it was racist to block travel from China? Do you still think that the lab leak theory is hilarious? Do you still think that there was no gain-of-function research done on the virus? Do you still think that you can only get a bit sick if you vax, you can't end up in the hospital? Do you think it made sense to allow people from covid ground zero to fly into Canada and walk around freely until we were saturated with covid, and then stop Canadians from walking around outside in parks? If you're still answering "yes" to all those questions, or even 2 of them, then of course your IQ is low enough that you think right-wingers are conspiratards. If you saw through all of that shit in real time, and you've been shaking your head at leftists for 3 years now, then you know that leftards are the actual conspiratards.

“Stewart Rhodes, the leader of the far-right Oath Keepers militia, and one of his subordinates were convicted on Tuesday of seditious conspiracy as a jury found them guilty of seeking to keep former President Donald J. Trump in power through a plot that started after the 2020 election and culminated in the mob attack on the Capitol.“ https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/29/us/politics/oath-keepers-trial-verdict-jan-6.html 2384. Seditious conspiracy If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.

An interesting combination of articles written by the Kays today. Not a coincidence, I'm guessing. First, this one from Jonathan Kay mentioning how ridiculous our country has gotten over the mostly false allegations of 'genocide' against natives. The Left in Canada has embraced this story to such a degree it's become a religion. Anyone daring to contradict it is a blasphemer and guilty of 'denialism'. In many countries, such as Poland, Russia, and Turkey, it is considered bad manners (or even a criminal act) to speak candidly of such nations’ real historical sins. But in Canada, the officially sanctioned fictionalization of history now runs in the opposite direction—toward apocalyptic self-incrimination. Even as hundreds of thousands of immigrants and refugees flock to Canada every year, we are required to embrace the lurid conceit that our country may be described in the same moral breath as (actual) genocidal states such as Nazi Germany and 1994-era Rwanda. A group of scholars even tried to get Canada prosecuted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for crimes against humanity (with predictable results) Welcome to Canada the nation of genocidaires And then the second item, by Barbara Kay, details the attacks on a teacher for daring to contradict the prevailing 'wisdom', despite his remarks being brief and truthful. Here a school board is firing a teacher for telling his students, who were upset at the thought of all those children being 'murdered and tortured', that in fact, they mostly died of diseases like tuberculosis. Which is absolutely true, but apparently truth is not what Canadian schools are interested in teaching these days. In her above-mentioned report, Radomski concluded that, “regardless of Mr. McMurtry’s intent,” his expressed opinion that the deaths were due to disease was “inflammatory, inappropriate, insensitive and contrary to the district’s message of condolences and reconciliation.” Indeed, she found it inculpating that, “He left students with the impression some or all of the deaths could be contributed (sic) to ‘natural causes’ and that the deaths could not be called murder.” Her finding, therefore, was that McMurtry was guilty of “extremely serious professional misconduct.” Most unjustly. https://12ft.io/proxy?q=https%3A%2F%2Fnationalpost.com%2Fopinion%2Fas-this-b-c-teacher-found-out-even-speaking-the-truth-in-class-is-enough-to-get-an-educator-cancelled

A greeting card is due, as per social forum etiquette...

Because it was vetted and printed by a highly respected science publication. No you really don't know that at all and if you'd carefully and without malice and jumping 20' in the air read the Scientific American article or any other publication on the topic of base rate fallacy you might understand why.

Wait, tell us again how the brutality American slavery wasn't so bad, because Turkey hasn't apologized for the Armenian genocide.? You are whatbouting your arse off. Gross. I don't know Joy Reid. Maybe she's a racist. But that evidence is not on display. What she's said here about the origin of the country isn't racist. There are living grandchildren of slaves alive today. But aside from that, WTF is your point? Do you even have a point? Are you just looking for more ways to deflect from the brutal roots of the American experiment? It's small, petty and disgusting. We cannot hope to fix the problems we have today without understanding what caused so many of them. Yes, very stupid memes. You take a freeze frame of an innocent and very publick peck from a grandfather to a granddaughter and make it into something lascivious? You're disgusting.

I suggest getting the resources to market before China and Russia, as our resources will likely be so heavily taxed, regulated, and expensive to extract soon that no one will bother. Already happening. Just look at pipelines. Yes it’s all about the money because our government is thoroughly immoral and has no business pushing lifestyle choices on our vulnerable youth. Government is there to provide the essential unprofitable services and nothing more. Get government out of the way as much as possible. They are destroying the country.

YOU'RE an ADMITTED TROLL, and STILL at it. ? What goes around, comes around.

But YOU don't KNOW the details which would make that illegal. Just falling for more right wing propaganda.

People who die between casting their vote by mail and election day is NOT ILLEGAL NOR unethical. You've been conned, again.

Also #1 TROLL.

You're just sort of repeating your opinion here rather than taking in the information. It's not a "cover." Diverse organizations do perform better. And the reasons are pretty obvious why if you slow down and think about it. We, every individual, filter the world through our own experiences.For general purposes, I'm a first-class communicator. But the further an audience is from my experience the less successful I can be in reaching and serving them. In trying to understand and persuade a female audience I won't be quite as effective--I know less about the female experience. And if it's young women, it gets worse. And if it's young urban women, it gets worse still . And if it's young, Black, urban women I have even less chance of getting it right. But nobody does anything solo these days. What about my comms team? Well, if they are all like me then they are of no real help. But if I have a diverse team they can vet my work and craft broad messages that don't exclude anyone unnecessarily or to shape specific messages to target audiences outside of my wheelhouse. If I'm designing a car on my own, it's going to disproportionately reflect my experience in the world, my use cases. And maybe that's not as well aligned to the larger market as it should be. Do I usually drive alone? Do I have kids? How important are folding seats and cupholders? I'm probably not going to get it right on my own, but if I have a diverse team, my odds go up. Or how about if I'm a 20-something male running a software startup. I grew up on l33tspeak and touchscreens. Is my microcopy and user progression clear to the 50-something woman I want to buy my software? No, probably not. But, again, if I have a diverse team--a team that represents everyone--then we're more likely to be able to serve everyone. I'll give you a real-world, practical example. One of my teams is a small group of writers. I had two older women on the team who were elite talent with veteran experience. I had an open role and a good friend of mine wanted the job--also an older woman with serious skills. Her resume was hands-down better than any of the other applicants that I interviewed. On paper, she was the "strongest candidate"--and a friend. But she wasn't the "best" candidate, and I didn't hire her. Not because of gender or age or race, but simply because I already had two people with similar experiences and perspectives, and adding a third similar voice to the team wasn't going to fill any gaps. Homogeneity doesn't make a stronger team. Instead, I hired a young woman, early career, who had talent and a different experience and perspective. Her resume wasn't nearly as good, but she expanded the experience base of my team in a practical way. And every time she points out that the way something is phrased sounds anachronistic or that a phrase has a different meaning within her peer group I pat myself on the back a little, because even though I didn't hire my friend with the better resume, I know that the work that team produces is more effective for a wider audience. Do you see the difference? It's not about quotas or including or excluding any specific demo. It's about building diverse, representative teams for better success in a diverse, representative marketplace.

Donald lost by 81,139 votes. That's a hell of a lot of dead people casting votes.

Yes. But she would have to pay for that ID, and if the only reason for purchasing the ID is to vote, then the ID constitutes a poll tax, which is unconstitutional.

So, the TSB report on broken wheels is out and .... basically all wheels must be eventually replaced. The big news though is that Ottawa city manager Steve Kanellakos bails out 3 days before the LRT report is due to be made public. He says for personal reasons??? And that there my be speculation as to why he is leaving his $307K per yer job (highest pay in the city). Or, it may hit the fan and he want to be out of there?

So, you don't think the extraction of uranium needs to be governerned by any kind of rules? Or the forest industry and mining? Look at what has happened in the Amazon. The owner of the resources must have control over their exploitation. Viruses don't care how fit you are. For some viruses, the best source of immunity is a vaccine. If you do contract a virus, pharaceuticals may help alleviate the symptoms. You have a very simplistic view of complex problems.

If we scrap all of Trudeau’s special interest programs, carbon taxes, and lower taxes in general, people will have more disposable income. Also let those who want to set up private healthcare clinics and charge high prices to those who are willing to pay them do so. We can simply let all the immigrant doctors who are driving Uber finally become family doctors and join our universal healthcare system. They can prescribe Amoxicillin to half their patients like all of our current doctors. Oh yeah, and deregulate our natural resource sector so people can make real money and Indigenous can have good jobs near their communities without relying on paternalistic government victim programs. People need more rights and opportunities for real self-determination. As for your mention of the kinds of ailments we’ve been dealing with for centuries, incentivize fitness as Harper did and let people build up their immunity rather than trapping them in permanent masking bubbles and making them over-dependent on pharmaceuticals. Covid is now flu-like and flu is part of life. Get vaxed if you want but no one should make you. We need to respect personal discretion and rights. I don’t subscribe to Trudeau’s world views or values. He can go on all the drag shows he wants. Keep him away from my children.

Yes, really, you hapless troll. It's about numbers, not opinion. -- Hang on, maybe I can find a Pinterest post to meet your high standards.

What news? THE RACIST VIEW? MSLSD? CNN? You're a racist. Moroccan Jews have brown skin. El Salvadorians have brown skin (including the animals who violate our borders, bringing drugs and child prostitution.) Which Mexicans? Mayans? Aztecs? Did you even know they were completely different cultures? Or did your KKK mentality decided to name EVERY brown skinned person a Mexican? Did you know Puerto Ricans had brown skin? Did you know that if you are in the presence of a person from Dominican Republic and you compare that person to a Mexican, that person would probably slap you in the face? But hey, nose picker dem brown skins all look alike.

And it sure seems like some of the folks in this thread would be front row at the auction. After all, if other people commit evil acts it excuses what you do!

I replied 2 hours ago to your post with a short 300 word explanation of what the central message in the Bible is.

WCM certainly isn't the first one to ignore the fallacy in fact it looks like a fairly common denier/refuser tactic so surely by now actual scientists doing the research and studies and who prefer to read the data have come up with several papers on why the fallacy doesn't apply here. Do you have any? I'm assuming you agree with WCM it doesn't mean a thing here.

You're saying after almost 150 years as one of the most respected scientific publications on the planet they couldn't ensure an article on a well known phenomenon was correct? Okay let's see what others have to say. https://www.google.com/search?q=base+rate+fallacy+vaccine&rlz=1CAUBRP_enCA1026&sxsrf=ALiCzsahxnEuLzQcFazXgdnN-KR7hCZARA%3A1669689325718&ei=7W-FY6vDK5DL0PEPs4O_4AQ&ved=0ahUKEwjr7ZO5rdL7AhWQJTQIHbPBD0wQ4dUDCA8&uact=5&oq=base+rate+fallacy+vaccine&gs_lcp=Cgxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAQAzIFCAAQgAQyBggAEBYQHjIFCAAQhgM6CggAEEcQ1gQQsAM6BQgAEKIEOgoIABCABBCxAxANOgcIABCABBANOggIABCABBCxAzoICAAQFhAeEA86BwghEKABEApKBAhBGABKBAhGGABQ2g5Yh_sBYMv-AWgJcAF4AIABhQGIAcUfkgEFMTguMjGYAQCgAQHIAQfAAQE&sclient=gws-wiz-serp Right from the get go above starts with This next explanation of what this fallacy means fits WasteCanMan to a tee; It goes on and on. So while figuring out yourself what a base rate fallacy is, especially as it relates to vaccines, feel free to fInd anything in here or anywhere else that conflicts with what Scientific American said it means. I'll say right now that if whatever you come up with is alongside links to evidence of a flat Earth or protection from chemtrails that'll be our first clue that you're probably on LSD or something.

Slavery was always wrong and they knew it. It was about money, it always is and slavery would still exist if it wasn't illegal.

I did. Researched the mountains of BC and other places. It all seemed scarcely populated and I thought, must be better than Scotland. But that was a big lie - people were already everywhere, like maggots on a corpse. Never thought of earning a right to wine. I just express my disappointment with the negative aspects of our society As for the "share of the pie", I did not come to take a share. I came to explore and collect memories. Still, since I have been here for some time, I cannot help but notice how messed up the whole system is and how I am supposed to be a slave for life over a tiny bit of land and a small moldy wooden structure, be happy with a non existing culture and non existing quality of life, but be shown the door out every time I complain, or be reminded of some nation at war or some destitute nation in central Africa, and how much better my life is in Canada. So, I do not care about your past at all. I am just saying what I think. And this is why I still come here, because I can say what I think - wrong or right.

Are you saying you have proof of dead people voting in numbers large enough to sway elections? You don't have any actual evidence that it's an issue. Just your speculation.

I'd still know you're deflecting to avoid addressing your case rate fallacy and how Scientific American is in on the conspiracy to cancel you and advance the cause of Big Pharma, the World Wide Communist agenda and...fluoridation too for all I know. In any case I still say people becoming convinced that the right-wing is far far to saturated with dingbats and conspiratards to be trusted with our governance is why conservatives can't make headway. Thanks for being such an endless graphic evidence of why.

You just cannot restrain yourself from saying obviously stupid, obviously wrong things, can you, Trump Jr.? California on track to become the fourth largest economy in the world Golden State poised to pass Germany and sit behind only US, China and Japan

So one minute your advocating civil war if society doesn't tow your line.... The next, your faking an interest in "common sense" and government restraint..... I'm guessing the meds have kicked in?

Justin has no balls he is a trans athlete, i heard boxing but i seen her box it was a train wreck.

My current reloader is a Dillon RL550B. I've shot more rounds in a year than you'll shoot your whole life. Your posts are stupid and you sound like a dimwit.

A US funded biolab in China, releases...on purpose or not...a pandemic on the entire world. The US has biolabs in a war zone right now. This doesn't trip your danger signals?

Only a stupid troglodyte would compare the summer of love to jan6th.

So you are saying we should disband the Canadian Armed Forces, close all the hospitals, defund the police and so on. The reason the healthcare system is in difficulty is a deadly pandemic that perhaps you failed to notice. We now have the trifecta of JSV, flu and a new wave of covid for the system to deal with. You mention moving to the US or the UK. The UK has a covid death rate (deaths/ million) that is doulble Canada's and the US it it triple. If you reduce tax revenue, how do you propose paying for governimg a 21st century nation. We already have to borrow to cover the total cost already.

So you're just...being a Peanut gallery?

I see the liberals as creating Sodom and Gomorrah, not the kind of country any thinking moral person would want. Do you really believe you can fight against God and win? Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. "27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: 28 So Christ was4 once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation." Hebrews 9: 27, 28

On the plus side, Putin has done a brilliant job of destroying the credibility of relying on his energy supply businesses. He may wind up owning the gas reserves off the shore of Southern Ukraine, but have NO customers for that product.

Canadians are suckers who accept high taxes, including carbon taxes, that fail to reduce greenhouse gasses. It’s that simple. I’m currently visiting a U.S. state with no state sales tax. US citizen wages have grown at a higher rate than Canadian wages and they are taxed far less with better results for emissions. Nevertheless the Canadian government continues to fleece citizens to pay for stupid projects. The HST is another way that Canadians are mistreated. The rational for it was to throw a massive consumption tax at citizens to keep exports cheap. Basically foreigners can get Canadian goods more cheaply than Canadians. The tax burden in Canada has to be reduced substantially, but it won’t happen because Canadians have been taught that high taxes give them good services such as our failed healthcare system.

Karri Lake = Loser Maybe she would have won, if she weren’t batshit crazy.

Well, don't look now but this seems like a pretty massive back-peddle to me. I'm pretty sure this is the very first thing I've ever said here that hasn't been dismissed as a lie. It's like a paradigm shift.
