Sorry but that's bullshit. The law may allow for it but currrently depending on the province you will be destroyed financially and emotionally as you spend your entire life's saving defending yourself in court. And expecting people to wake up and experience the fear and terror of a violent home invasion with a person armed with a weapon to stop and rationally think "Hmm, whats a reasonable amount of force to use here" is insane. So what we have now is a circumstance where the home owner must PROVE he was reasonable in his defense. What they're proposing is that the court should have to PROVE the defense was completely unreasonable before charges are laid, and that the burden of 'unreasonable' should be high, thus preventing someone who defends his home from unreasonable and unfair charges that destroy his life So they understand the current law just fine. As always you're a lying sack of shit. Well done.

Exactly. 80 Million + Lawful gun owners and some nut job mental defect kills people and the liberals want to disarm everyone else. No thanks.

What philosophy do you speak of? The one that says people should pay for what they want, not borrow from future generations?

ExFlyer is a leftist troll. All he ever does here is whine and cry about conservatives, but yet, when i ask the fool as to what the lieberals have done in the past ten years, he remains silent or posts funny memes. The fool is not worth anyone's time here to try and debate with. Just saying.

When I asked you what deals PeePee knew how to do you said" Posted Tuesday at 12:35 PM (by C..ox) "Trade deals (mark's failed there) Pipleine deals (mark's failed there) Interprovincial trade deals (mark's failed there) First nations agreements (mark has REALLY failed there)" Are you a phucking goldfish? Do you think people can't read your posts? Now go scrape your leg.

A crazy-ass trannie opens fire in a church...one it attended before... And Libbies think guns are the problem. Have any of you read the profile on this bugger? Outcast...angry...sexually confused...man the guy's mom worked at that church as well. Robin/Robert was a product of social decay.

If you're one of those that actually believe that Canada was better some time before, then you are the problem. You have zero interest in making things better. Get out of the way!

Herbosexual: afraid of facts, conservatives, cisgender devils, white people, math, and girls.

Electricity Is Becoming Unbelievably Expensive as the US Power Grid Decays Into Ruin Shocking. Joe WilkinsAug 29, 3:19 PM EDT The US electrical grid is facing a stress test like never before. Thanks to a perfect storm of AI power consumption, climate crisis, crony capitalism, and a president bent on uprooting perfectly good energy infrastructure, the country's already-struggling power system is rapidly crumbling as costs balloon into the stratosphere. A recent analysis by Bloombergunderscores just how dire it's getting. In the country's largest continuous grid — a 13-state monstrosity managed by PJM Interconnection LLC — the media company notes that power costs have set record highs for two years in a row. Spanning from Indiana to eastern New Jersey, PJM's footprint includes some 65 million residents, as well as a constellation of tech industry mega-sites known as Data Center Alley. While the cost of electricity is expected to rise drasticallywith the growth of AI over the next few years, Bloomberg notes that, in PJM states like Michigan, Ohio, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, nearly 25 percent of residents already can't afford their utility bills. While PJM is a titan among US power suppliers, it's not alone. Across the country, Bloomberg notes that electricity prices rose at over twice the rate of overall inflation over the past year, putting the national price at a near-record high. As this is happening, the actual condition of the grid is decaying rapidly. A recent report by Bank of America found that nearly a third of transmission infrastructure, like high voltage transmission lines or substations, is already near or beyond its useful life span. Meanwhile, a whopping 46 percent of US distribution infrastructure, including utility poles and power line transformers, was found to be in a similar state. That makes it all the more baffling that US president Donald Trump is waging an all-out-offensive on perfectly good green energy infrastructure, the kind that experts broadly agree maximizes grid flexibility, reduces energy costs, and enables economic growth. Earlier this week, Trump's white house stopped construction on a massive wind farm in Rhode Island that was said to be 80 percent complete, as the president asserted that "wind doesn’t work." That project was estimated to provide enough juice to power some 350,000 homes across the east coast, and was just one of many imperiled by the returning administration. That said, while Trump certainly isn't making things any better, the current crisis is decades in the making. A major part of the problem is that the United States boasts the only macro grid in the world without a central plan. Unlike the singular grids managed by China or the EU, the US power system is a labyrinthian bureaucracy made-up of three separate grids, each a jumbled mess of various planning regions, territorial authorities, and public-private utility companies. To get out of this mess will require a comprehensive overhaul of the current setup — one that the current commander is chief is highly unlikely to authorize.. https://futurism.com/electricity-usa-expensive-decaying?utm_source=flipboard&utm_content=topic%2Fclimatechange

"Conservative Party Leader Pierre Poilievre is calling on the federal government to amend the Criminal Code to clarify the reasonable use of force in the face of a high-level threat, such as a home intruder." PP made an announcement yesterday calling on the Carney government to amend the criminal code to remove the long list of requirements placed on residents when defending themselves and their family. Apparently the present law is complicated and very involved and one must be some kind of lawyer to understand it. That must be changed to simplify it and make it understandable for everyone. When a criminal breaks in to a person's home, the victim just doesn't have the time to go through all the complexities of the law to figure out what to do. He simply has to act to do what he can to protect him and his family at that moment. The law presently doesn't work that way. Victims have been charged by police for defending themselves and their family from dangerous offenders armed with a gun or other weapons and have been put through an expensive legal system for many months. Or they have been locked up in jail before finally being exonerated. It is very expensive to have to hire a lawyer to defend yourself and your family just because you were trying to defend yourself when criminals invaded your house. This has to be changed. PP proposal will change the complicated laws that exist now to simplify it and make it more reasonable for someone to defend themselves and their family.

Add to this doubling housing, doubling homelessness and food bank use.

This. Also, @BeaverFever lied when he said most of our coal is coke. "Nearly half of the coal produced in Canada is thermal and half is metallurgical. The coal hub It's about 50 50. as far as how the coal is used. He tried to lie and make it sound like the vast majority is metallurgic but that's just not true. We tend to ship metallurgic but of all the coal we mine half is burned for heating anyway so he's wrong twice. Also: Canada is the seventh largest exporter of coal in the world. In 2023, Canada accounted for 3.4% of global seaborne coal shipments. Canada’s seaborne coal exports in the 12 months of 2023 increased by +9.6% y-o-y to 49.9 mln tonnes. This followed a decline of -0.9% y-oy in 2022, and a +7.1% y-o-y increase in 2021. In the first 2 months of 2024, coal exports from Canada increased further by +3.3% y-o-y to 7.4 mln tonnes, from 7.1 mln t in Jan-Feb 2023, and 6.7 mln t in Jan-Feb 2022.

This is precisely why we need better laws that give protection to people acting in self-defense, because malicious people like you exist in government who want to attack people defending themselves.

ExcessiveFlatulence . . . . gasbag extraordinaire. Endless stupid memes. The 'block' feature works well.

Would you think guns have enemies? Well yes they do, there are two, Liberals and rust. Oil can prevent one, common sense can prevent the other.

Harper did not leave in disgrace. Neither did Mulroney, though he was a thief. Chretien left in disgrace. The Trudeaus left ahead of mobs with pitchforks.

You. I already pointed that out. Odd you'd want to point it out again As always you lie and then when called on it and given real facts you have no rebuttal but insults. You know i'm right and can't say anything to defend yourself. Yawn

Sorry but that's just a lie. And having a picture of a stern woman with it doesn't make that less true LOL And no surprise, no source.

My taxes, my taxes! BAWW greatness is measured in taxes! You had more freedom in the 1950s.... what a stupid thing to believe. Absolute utter bullshit to even think such a thing. And if Ukraine was an independent nation Russia invaded in the 1950s we wouldn't merely be sending aid we'd be at Defcon 1 with troops on the way like Korea.

This is a lie, and if I had the search feature, I am pretty sure I have brought up a list of about 10 things I support doing. With how you act on here, I wouldn't be surprised to find you in those discussions. When people like you say "do nothing about it" what you really mean is that we don't agree with whatever hate of guns you have and across the board lets punish and target everyone else instead of the bad people doing bad things.

the part where you're so insecure that you need to try to slice it up like that. Conservatives have been in power for about 50 percent of the last 40 years. Pretty close to half the time. SO what does that tell us about you Sorry to hear you shat your bed again last night and need to try to make yourself feel better

Lol...yes dear....

The age of Trump is only beginning. Every Nevertrumper in this forum, every member of the MAGA Legion Vast that swept aside your electioneering in one night, was once like you. Fought as feebly as you. Every Trumper that lives today is a convert!

The Democrats only have a 24% approval rating. So they came up with a grand new strategy. A FIGHT SONG! Trump is negotiating new trade deals, ending conflicts all over the world, bringing down prices, deporting illegal aliens, cleaning up the worst cities and passing tax cuts that help the poor and middle class and the Democrats came up with a fight song. Great job guys. Great job.

Just another affirmation of why Poilievre turns people off.... Yes Pierre, you're a tough guy and everyone agrees we should be able to protect our families and homes, which our laws already allow for. This was nothing but a 'keep me relevant' proposal, if you can call it that. The guy was charged for a reason, and it wasn't because of weak laws. These guys knew each and I'm guessing that when the facts of the apparent break-in come out we'll hear about 2 troubled guys who had a disagreement and one of them using excessive force. Can't blame Poilievre for trying to stay relevant I suppose, but pick and choose better spots to do it Pierre...

The trick is to figure out what drove Robert crazy. This guy was fcked up big time. Adolescents is the most confusing time of life. Today our adolescents are told things like...sensuality is fluid...Gawd doesn't exist...we're all gonna die from heat...people are poisonous... All this exactly when stability is paramount for the kids. But to you, it's as simple as guns. Just another reason why the Liberal mind is way too simplistic and freaked out, to be given any sway on society.

Well, should lock everyone up in their homes just to be sure.

It seems pretty simple, you cross a legal line when you do more than you need to protect yourself and your family. In other words you can't take a bat to the back of some perpetrators head as they're running out your front door, nor can you knife or shoot them in the back.

I was with a CGA for 4-5 years, Asides from my computer mags the only stuff to read was her Economist and financial mags. She even bent me into supporting the BC Libs and joining Gordon Campbell's local campaign team. Until he began with the stupidity like selling off BC Rail. I made a living for years off Chinese suppliers, one saleswoman would always add some swag in with my computer parts deliveries, Even mooncakes and lucky red envelopes on Lunar New Years.

So a crazy guy with serious mental issues was allowed to own a bunch of guns and you think that is ok? Seriously.. get a grip.

Beauty is is in the hands of the beholder. On the other hand I think you need to wash yours.

You think this stuff happens over night? BC has had low carbon standards for fuel for several years. The feds are behind on this. What shovel ready projects are you referring to and who is building them? Are you suggesting the federal government build pipelines and LNG plants, go into the business of building homes? The building industry said Trudeau's home building claims were nuts because we simply don't have the trades to build them. That won't happen fast either. I'm certainly not saying he can't do some things better but they will never be good enough for you.

That's not true.. The 'think' part i mean. That's racist.

Tariffs stay in place while administration decides on appeal to the supreme court

Tomorrow is Saturday. The tariffs are left in place because the SCOTUS will likely rule in his favor.

We knew this would come back in February. We can’t control Trump’s bad decisions we can only decouple from usa as much as we can which will take time. US Courts just ruled Trump’s tariffs are illegal, the made-in-America problem will have a made-in-America solution especially as American job losses and inflation mount

Sure beats the hell out of being a comatose rightoid poopy-head.

So what do you suggest?

I am curious? Why don't you want to retire in the Okanagan? Is there something i am not aware of going on there? Sadly, BC, Toronto and the bankrupt lieberal Maritime provinces keep voting for the same gang of thieves and cheating lieberals who keeps making their lieberal lives miserable and broke. It is mostly the elderly white senile women and the white emotional young women in Canada who keeps on voting for the likes of communist Chow and the Marxist globalist Carnage the barbarian. It is still hard to believe that anyone in their right bloody mind would vote for the lieberals in the last election. But this is Canada, don't you know. Stupidity runs rampant here in Canada. 🙄

Streaming in Canada: Privacy section accidentally deleted? OTTAWA — The federal government says it’s “looking into” what appears to be the accidental removal of a privacy provision in its Online Streaming Act. Earlier this week, University of Ottawa law professor Michael Geist outlined in a blog post that a privacy provision in the legislation was removed only two months after the bill became law, through an amendment contained in another bill. ACCIDENTALLY my ASS!!! They knew exactly what they were doing and hoped nobody would notice. They just 'Happened" to "Accidentally" pass another bill that deleted the privacy protections for canadians for a bill that already has massive potential for overreach. And they're not moving right away to fix it, they're going to be 'looking into it', which means they have no intent of doing anything and hope if they delay long enough people will forget and they won't have to put the provisions back. This gov't is evil. How anyone can support these people is beyond me, but any liberal supporter who EVER complains about trump or any other human rights violation should be slapped in the face for their utter hypocrisy.

Like cheer how the worst of the worst were apprehended by stopping a fire crew fighting Washington's largest forest fire for several hours to haul away two people who 'might be' illegals as they didn't have or wouldn't show ID. Cheer you sick f*cks.

in your case @Legato seems that way because he's writing for his audience.

The age of Trump has only begun. 4 more years

And it happened the instant "elbows up" turned into "pants down".

That's not what you said. you said PeePee got trade deals done. Now you're weaseling out as usual. You're a three inch turd trying to fit down a two inch pipe.

- The Dollars has been mostly between 72-74 for like two years soooo. . . . - I'd rather our Healthcare than one that forces me to pay a deductible to access it. - I'd like to see a cite for this and over how long - Which drugs? please don't tell me it's Cannabis. - I'll give you this one. But it's not like any other large democracy is doing much better. Heck the US has a $30 Trillion debt.

What sort of amadán would believe such nonsense?
