  1. The prosecutor (Shokin) that Biden got fired, was interfering with an attempt by the UK SFO to maintain a FREEZE on Burisma's owner's 23M pounds. AKA "under control" by Burisma. Getting Shokin fired did NOT SERVE Burisma nor its owner's interests, so if they hired Hunter for "influence" over Joe, it DIDN'T WORK. No "influence" was delivered.

  2. National Archives admits to having around 5000 emails from Joe's pseudonym. My theory is Donnie had these emails and is why Joe had his hit squad raid maralogo

  3. It's called "biased sampling" so proves pretty much nothing. With enough effort (and free dough, out of someone's pocket) I bet they could find a homeless who became successful businessperson. Hurray, positive result! I wonder who read the proposal and why it still got public funding.

  4. I think what really began with Nixon was to lay the foundation for the respectability dictators now enjoy and that puts the economy ahead of human been rights. 'Oh, but you lefties love being told what to do' ? The Democrats, like Liberals, are only lefties when they campaign for office.

  6. I don't think that the college could be so stupid as to be surprised with dr. Peterson's response. Their motivations seem pretty clear. Peterson will have to abide by the code and stop being such a special lil YouTuber or face the accountability he's always talking about...

  7. Unless I'm mistaken the criticisms levelled against politicians are to be taken as tacit support for other politicians. I take the view that when the quality of the criticism is questionable it says more about the sort of leadership you can expect from the politicians that critic supports. I think that behooves politicians to come up with a better program and get their supporters to get on the same page.

  8. Except "all" was hardly a perception, neither selection in the study is representative nor the interval has much meaning. What fraction of homeless population would be able to reach stable independence as a result of one-time assistance? No answer. How to identify individuals who will be more likely to achieve it? No. So throw a load of taxpayer dough at a meaningless question to produce a result of highly dubious significance. Great job. Give free money and some people will make use of it and others waste it. Is there really a great puzzle here?

  10. on the other hand, being a neutral would be a boon for HM Canadian Army can you imagine ? every Militia infantry regiment in the Order of Battle would have to be brought up to full battalion strength ah, that would be glorious Cuidich 'n Righ

  11. again, Canada has no alternate military strategy is the Canadian population willing to give up their social safety net in order to be a heavily armed neutral ? obviously not barely anyone in Canada is willing to serve in the military yet being a neutral would require universal conscription are Canadians willing to submit to that ? obviously not being defended by the Global Hegemon is the greatest deal Canada is ever going to get wishing the Americans away as the Global Hegemon is a nightmare scenario for Canada Canada is not just a founding member of NATO Canada conspired with the British to make it happen Britain & Canada dragged the Americans into NATO not because it was in America's interests, because it was in Britain & Canada's interests Winston Churchill went to Missouri and invoked the Iron Curtain to scare the Americans into it

  12. I don't view formal separation as a viable option there is no realistic alternative to Confederation I just want an actual federated state with vastly greater autonomy from Ottawa and I would return to the British North America Act with a Bill of Rights since the Canada Act 1982 with the Charter does not do what it promised the Canada Act 1982 is a poison pill which has wrecked the Confederation

  13. What a bunch of pure unadulterated hokum. The logo of FOX News in the upper left corner of course is there to remind the viewers that its all just fiction anyway because the whole channel gave up the ghost of its very distant pre Trump reality news reputation when they began being his mouthpiece.

  14. Upper Canada hasn't existed since 1841 LOL. Just like the Bloc you despise Canada and want to destroy it. Canadians have defeated both of you and will continue to do so. One of the few good things i can say about the Trudeau's is that they didn't believe in this group identity sub-nationalism BS, like Quebec seperatism or British domination, and both believed in a united Canada. Diversity is not our strength, unity is.

  15. Consider there wasn't massive violent uprisings during the Great Depression throughout most of the western world, people just dealt with it and demanded significant reforms to the system. No communist, no fascism. What's different now is that it's just a tight squeeze, over and over, on working people. I don't see any outlandish over-speculation. The only thing I see is the big debt loads people have, it's possible people just can't eventually pay and there's a big recession like 2008. I wish I could have invested in real estate development companies in Canada 20 years ago, i'd be rich.

  16. but the judiciary is not to be trusted because they have embraced the idea of a "living constitution" which is really just a euphemism for evermore unconstrained government interference in every aspect of life the courts in Canada only rule one way in this day & age and that is almost in every case in favour of the state against the individual unless it is an absolutely glaring miscarriage of justice, the courts will rule in favour of the government and so again, it's subtle, yet unyielding, your liberties just keep getting chipped away at incrementally and on the long view, it is only going in that direction

  18. indeed this is one of Canada's most crippling pathologies the fool's errand of trying to be the "honest broker" in great power security competition otherwise known as the Peacekeeping Myth which sadly replaced Canada's greatest myth, the Vimy Myth the nation forged in fire on the Western Front to win the Great War for civilization itself

  20. Looks who's droning the same agenda chug chug. Disarm, run to pick daisies in the meadow and face smiley-friendly Xi and Vlad, on each side? Some are just naive, but hard to believe in these cases. More likely, someone somewhere is pulling a string, or a few. The kind of patriotic new Canadians" we get by a shipload these days.

  21. it all goes back to 1982 the successful Canada as British North America was ended and replaced with a new state which is actually completely detached from our history & system of governance so this "Canada" you live in now is only forty years old this system of governance is completely unproven and is actually a radical experiment oblivious to the unintended consequences this is where you end up with what Americans call the "Fake Country" or as I call it, the People's Republic of Canada the Canada Act 1982 is a deeply flawed document full of poison pills which has resulted in the worst of both worlds, no public rule, but also no British rule of law from Jordan Peterson's Op-Ed in the National Post The decline and fall of Canada Why does the situation appear particularly grim, here in Maple Leaf Country? We were, for most of my country’s history, miraculously and thankfully dull: our constitution, ensconced safely under British authority until 1982, enshrined “peace, order and good government” as the most basic principles of our dominion. This was not the clarion call ringing out to rally our good friends south of the border, who aimed at the much more dramatic and libertarian “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” It was good enough, however, to produce a reliable, safe, secure and free state, conservative in the classic small-c sense, with institutions both predictable and honest, and an economy both productive and generous. That all started to change in the 1980s. Our dashing prime minister, Pierre Elliot Trudeau — father of the current Prime Minister, our current clown prince — was searching desperately for a legacy and for a solution to the chronic problem posed by the Quebec separatists, who were genuinely threatening the integrity of the country. Quebec was the last feudal country in the West: extremely traditional and dominated by a very small, tight, essentially hereditary elite right until the end of the 1950s. Quebec dumped all that in a few short years in a fit of 1960s freedom, also dropping its birth and marriage rate with exceptional rapidity (both are now among the lowest in the world) and abandoning the Catholic church in favour of a crude nationalism and a more-or-less socialist utopia favoured by those who pushed to also tear apart the country. Trudeau senior, constitutionally displeased with the fundamental derivation of Canada from Britain, seized upon this opportunity to make his mark in history, and began to agitate to “bring the constitution home.” He did so, rewriting our primary legal agreement, and appending to it his much-vaunted Charter of Rights and Freedoms, paraded before Canadians as the ultimate guarantee of the freedoms we had enjoyed anyway under the much more reliable aegis of British Common Law. But Quebec put up its middle finger, refusing to become a signatory to the new agreement – even after Trudeau’s government abandoned both its spine and its principles to include a poison pill in the very Charter that hypothetically protected our citizens: the clause in Section 33 of that document, indicating that those very constitutional rights can be abridged more or less at will by any government in Canada, federal or provincial, if inclined to do so. https://nationalpost.com/opinion/jordan-peterson-canada-is-trampling-on-my-god-given-right-to-free-speech although Section 1 is worse than Section 33 Section 1 is where your rights are rendered meaningless by vague & specious rhetoric what is "reasonable" in a "free and democratic society" ? that's actually subjective rather than objective this renders your rights into a matter of opinion rather than fact so you have no rights, so long as public opinion is against you which is actually the opposite of what a bill of rights is supposed to achieve

  24. There's a difference between being suspended for a month (as with Kempling) and being told to undergo social media training. Peterson claims he pays for this 'training' out of pocket for as long as it takes, until those administering the training are convinced he has been re-educated. This to me sounds a bit orwellian. Peterson also claims he is going to tape the proceedings and make them public. If not allowed to tape, he will make notes or do it by memory. If the goal is to make an example of Peterson, I figure they picked the wrong guy and instead may be creating a martyr. And according to Orwell... martyrs have always had the capability of destroying the things that led them to martyrdom. So stay tuned.... it ain't over yet.

  26. Well it shouldnt' be. Obviously. We don't teach the subject of heterosexuality or why that should be accepted. We don't teach that single parenting is ok and should be accepted. But it started off with 'exposing the kids to the idea that "some people have a mommie and daddy, but some people have two mommies or two daddies and that's fine too". Which - y'know, i guess... if they left it there..... But then they need to take it farther and discuss gay relationships and have sexy-dressed trans story time and discussions about their gender - with 9 year olds. It's just not healthy. There's a lot of works to show introducing the subject of sexuality and gender too early is harmful to kids.

  28. I don’t think it’s hyperbole at all. The Holocaust was one of the most evil things that’s ever happened, and it should forever be remembered as such. Over 50 million people died in WW II. Adolph Hitler was responsible for nearly all of it. The Holocaust times ten. Donald Trump threatened to drop nuclear bombs on North Korea. Donald Trump created an openly hostile relationship with China. Donald Trump rejected democratic leaders across the world. Donald Trump embraced the dictatorial, fascist leaders of Russia, Hungary, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia. Donald Trump asked the DoD to develop plans to invade Iran and the JCoS were very concerned that he would invade Iran to distract from his January 6 disaster. Donald Trump tried to illegally and violently overturn his election loss, for the only time in American history, and it would have been the end of democracy as we know it Democracy is a very fragile thing. Trump’s actions could have easily lead us straight into another global war, and if re-elected, we face the same instability.

  29. If you are curious, check any Youtube video about Nasser. He was an Egyptian, an Arab nationalist. He died in 1970. More relevant: the 1956 Suez crisis and Pearson's role.
