I did and they gave me a coupon for free ice-cream. On the back of the coupon was a message "Use if it gets warm, if it gets cold, use at someone's birthday party".

House Nears Vote on Epstein Files as White House Calls Effort ‘Hostile Act’ A bipartisan group of House lawmakers is pushing to force a vote on releasing all federal files related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, despite fierce opposition from the Trump administration and GOP leadership. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., filed a discharge petition Tuesday that would compel the Justice Department to release all unclassified Epstein investigation materials within 30 days. The rare procedural move allows lawmakers to bypass House leadership and force a floor vote if they secure 218 signatures. …The White House warned Tuesday that supporting the petition would be viewed as “a very hostile act to the administration,” while House Speaker Mike Johnson called Massie’s efforts “meaningless.” https://thedeepdive.ca/house-nears-vote-on-epstein-files-as-white-house-calls-effort-hostile-act/

How Team Obama Justifies the Killing of a 16-Year-Old American

The TFW program has been badly handled but getting rid of it would be a disaster for agriculture.

There's still wood but the mills, holy shit. One modernized and cut workforce in half, another kist did and cut the workforce from 350+ to around 70 ppl. Used to be 350 loads of logs a day headed out of town for other mills, there's still 100 -120. But they 'centralized' the gas, phone, cable, forestry and hydro workers to deliver shitty service for higher prices - that hurt big too. But the Band Offices reopened closed hatcheries around here and that was 4 years ago. Guess what? Enjoy the fish! From what I've seen I think if you build up to a population of 10,000 towns become pretty much self sustaining. But you have a point, the fish and the wood and the mines don't last forever. Albertans look at your future FFS, We're not Voyager's Kazon that strip mine a planet and just fly off to conquer and strip mine the next one.

PP is a salesman like all politicians. In the real world the answers are never easy. Give us the hard truth you propose. Without a temporary foreign worker program, who is going to work in the the nursing homes, clean my house or make my sub sandwich and how much more is it going to cost if indeed somebody is prepared to do it? Before the recent group of foreign workers arrived our fast food restaurants were working severely reduced hours. Some were closed. In my town I see very few young Canadian adults around. Are you telling us Atlantic Canadians to move to where? Southern Ontario? Red Deer? I wouldn’t even dare suggest a southern BC city option.

A Honda CRV weighs 3600 lbs. A Ford Escape 3500 lbs. My Audi Q5 weighs 4200 lbs. EV's are heavier but not as much as you think. All cars have become bloated.

Did you expect different GDP data with the tariff and trade pressure Trump is putting on us? I'm curious what you think Poilievre would have done this quickly to get us a no tariff agreement?

It's all Trump's and Stephen Harper's fault.

Actually they don't.

And according to you those cartels are not violent, they have not killed or murdered any US citizens, let alone any other nations citizens....Mexican cartels are marked as the most violent on the planet....then add on to this the over 108,000 Americans that have been killed due to consumption of drugs...These guys deserve a dirt nap more than anyone on the planet right now...And some how we are suppose to give a crap about 11 guys in a boat....These cartels are like cockroaches and are spreading across north American because of our weak government and laws, and these terrorist are thriving in billion of dollars...You have to ask yourself how these guys rate any kind of pass....Your and mine country have a major drug crises which needs to be addressed....it is time for another war on drugs, and this time we take it to those drug nations who profit from our peoples deaths....... https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/mexico-americans-killed-1.5348041 https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/article/the-staggering-death-toll-of-mexicos-drug-war/

They have been declared terrorist long before they were attacking Israel or US interests in the area....this conflict is only growing bigger. But the fact remains they have been declared a terrorist group and can be targeted at any time by any means...And the US is not ther only nation to drop stuff on them, the British, US , Israelis , French have all had a go at these guys, along with a long list of coalition members that have provided anti missiles ships in protection of Israel...My point is, they have been declared a terrorist group, and that process is a long one, like you pointed out not everyone can be listed as a terrorist, so precautions have been taken....same precautions as the US and Canada took before labeling 7 cartels terrorist groups..

Your government has more checks and balances than just one guy...there are thousands of people providing advice and counseling before any decision is made.... NO ONE was at war with Afghanistan....there was a conflict there , US military forces were engaged with terrorist forces but no war or declaration of war....Just like no war declaration of war for the Korean conflict... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_war_by_the_United_States

IS the US at war with houtis in Yemen ? The US declared them to be terrorist organization, long ago... and US military forces have been bombing the crap out of them....with bombs and missiles.....I am having difficulties finding the difference between killing any terrorist group by any means...You say drug dealers are not terrorist, and yet, some how your president and my Prime Minister declared 7 drug cartels terrorist groups...despite all the legal advice they would have needed to take before such a declaration... I've given you many examples of US military forces being used to kill foreign terrorist on foreign soil, and yet your finding it hard to imagine your country has been doing this for decades...the fact that my country has being doing it since the war on terror started....along with most western nations....plenty of examples on goggle...all of them have been toughly vetted, by legal departments, inter national law, vetted through defense department, intel etc... all of this and much more happens before the military get the green lite to target someone or something.... this just does happen with a phone call from trump wanting to blow something up....

Like almost every thread @BeaverFever is in, he has already run away. Off to spam the forum with more BS.

A violent extremist gang known for its terrorist threats, a declared terrorist organization, was smuggling drugs as part of its funding operations that both directly and indirectly harms Americans. We blew them up for it. Did you miss that video? LMAO

Right? Carney: - Moves his business to the US - Drops tariffs on demand when trump tells him to - increases military spending comittments on command - Holds "executive order" signing press conferences (OIC's in our case) just like trump - Praises trump lavishly and embarrassingly so at G7 - Is praised by trump for being a 'good boy' - Invites an actual trump strategist to lecture cabinet LEFTS VERDICT: Carney is playing 4d chess in an effort to get into trump's head and lure him into a false sense of security and our crashing economy is all part of the trap carney will spring at any moment now. Polievre: - Uses slogan "canada first". LEFT'S VERDICT: MAPLE MAGA!!!! DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE!!!!!!

LOL awwww little guy You big mad that everyone laughs at you? Kid, none of your 'insults' are ever above a grade three level and literally everyone winds up doing better than you. Sorry you're just learning this now Seeing as Venandi was kind enough to give you one, i'll throw in a limerick myself Ex-flyer was very sad Beause he never knew who was his dad. "To make up for this gap I'll post endless crap And people will think i'm a Chad!"

I already made my point you illiterate piece of trailer trash. These were people who came to the US and then committed crimes before they even became citizens. How about don't get caught dealing drugs when you're not even a citizen yet? Beavey Boy: "😭 The poor guy got kicked out because of a little drug conviction 😭". FYI you don't get allowed into the country to "maybe deal a bit of drugs". They let you in based on the presumption that you'll be an upstanding citizen and contribute to the economy and your community. The problem is that when a credulous dolt like you sees a "Baaad, baaad Twumpy" smear-piece you get your little confirmation-bias boner and then accept every anecdote and multiply it by an estimated 80,000 cases, commit every bit of "sciency stuff" to memory (like a hockey-stick graph lol), and just believe every baseless accusation as if it's a conviction based on a confession and video evidence. Then you come here, run your mouth like a snotty 4th-grader, get humiliated, and then act like it never happened. Remember Russian collusion, dummy? You were totally convinced that some Trump associates were convicted of collusion-related offences because of a few misleading sentences in an article that you read, when nothing was further from the truth, and here you go again. Marijuana conviction... "Awwww, shuuuucks, is that all?" 😂 Play stupid games, win stupid prizes, jackass.

You're trying to tell me refugee and evacuee are not synonymous? There's some political or ideological aspect that turns them into opposite terms? Quit with the semantics, you're only fooling yourself.

When you defeated the Soviets, in the 1990s, you Americans became carpet-baggers. Yankees. Putin and Xi are the reaction. ===== We now live in a multi-polar world.

Your response was racist and applied double-standards you don't apply to any other discriminated race and I showed why. That's on you, not me. Do you agree with the contents of the letter or not? You already said no, but I'll give you another shot and give you the benefit of the doubt that you actually didn't read the letter. If you say no again i'm going to call you a racist again unless you can show me something legitimately wrong with the letter. If you dodge the question I will consider that a "no". The very fact that you're defending these cowardly Liberal MP's as you are is telling though. Jewish MP wants multi-partisan condemnation of recent anti-Jewish violence against Jews like schools, synagogues etc What's the conspiracy exactly? There's nothing political about Israel in the letter. If the letter was condemning recent violence against indigenous people or black Canadians the Liberal MP's would all sign. Those Liberal MP's aren't only cowards they're racists too. These are the people with racist double-standards running this country the last 10 years. We can all see the races the woke progressives are more eager to support or not. They've become the mirror image of everything they fought against the last 2 centuries. LOL i've never said that and you can't produce any quote showing such.

It is anything BUT in Canada. Get the f*ck out of the big city, the f*cking country is empty. Eby wants better controlled not ended. There are many jobs that shouldn't be filled with TFWs. Hand out some Trade School scholarships to high schoolers - get proactive.

Of course there isn't. But a LOT of young people won't take them. Only in the last year the local Subway found local kids. The TFWs were here for years and half them are now landed. Local teen won't mow lawns for ONLY $20. My Dad makes $40 hr. Told the kid these tiny city lots only take you 20 minutes, that is $60 an hour. Must still be busy scratching his head, never came back since June. This summer the kids are taking those jobs the talk on TV about it helps scare them into it. Wendys ot nothing. Like what is it now $17 something minimum? Ot ZERO. Choose. ( I have 2 friends with boys that graduated this year and last that just will not even look for work. Parents scared to boot them out thinking they'll end up street druggies Funny that all the girls are working. )

And you steadfastly insist on maintaining that the criticism of Israel equals anti-Semitism and hatred of Jews. It's bullshit.

Climate change refugees? WTF?

There are as many TFW's as there are help wanted signs out here. It's been like this for years. Housing is always a challenge but wow is all I can say to the numbers of old junky boats on their last legs that young people are buying up. Dropping anchor is like putting down roots hereabouts. They have a certain determination and old school way about them that I admire...my first place was a driftwood shelter on the beach...

LOL are you kidding me? So when MLK Jr criticized racism against African-Americans you disagree with the speeches where he didn't mention other races being discriminated against? And when indigenous people criticize the Canadian government's racism and mistreatment against their people you don't agree with their words either because they don't also mention the government's mistreatment of other groups? Sorry but your reply is absolutely racism and you've ventured into antisemitic double-standards here. Do better.

Unmanned drones will be a supplement rather than a replacement for a lot of manned vehicles but especially submarines. The ability to communicate with submerged submarines is very limited so data links needed for proper oversight I can’t see us allowing aan AI powered sub just sail wherever it feels like sailing and kill whoever it feels like killing Especially when talking about subs with ballistic and cruise missile launch capabilities.

Im not going to have this conversation with you....do some research what do you think our JTF guys do all day...they kill bad guys in many different countries, countries we are not at war with, countries that have governments of their own...who do you think authorizes those killings , i can tell you it is much higher than DND.... The facts are they were terrorist, as the US president declared them to be any member working for the cartels are Terrorists... Canada has labeled some of the Cartel networks as terrorist, yes your Mark Carney did that early in his negotiations with trump in regards to the border... My lack of respect for the law....first they are not my laws, i had nothing to do with creating them....second, do some research before flapping your gums and accusing me of something obviously you don't know nothing about...Most western nations use their SF units to kill terrorist, for the last couple of decades, don't tell me you cant find one example...Who kill Osama bin ladin, was he declared a terrorist....yes he was, did he have his day in court, who authorized that killing...the US president did....Do you really think trump is going to jail for this....do you think he is the first President to order a military strike on terrorist...how many times did the US media release footage of the US presidents and staff watching in real time operations like killing of terrorist... check out 5.44 and tell me there is no war on terror, "WE will come after you and find you" https://www.npr.org/2022/08/05/1115413454/biden-trump-obama-speeches-terrorist-leaders https://georgewbush-whitehouse.archives.gov/infocus/achievement/chap1-nrn.html Here is one about our own JTF, do some research on the guy that made that shot, tell me killing terrorist is not legal, because this guy killed a lot of them...Just because you don't see much of this in the media does not mean it does not happen...PS that guy has recorded over 200 kills welcome to the war on terror....Yes this guy served in OUR military, and he is not alone there are hundreds of soldiers just like him that have put an end to terrorist with out a court document, but rather a mission authorized by the highest level of government... https://sofrep.com/news/sofrep-exclusive-inside-story-canadas-jtf2-record-breaking-sniper-kill/

I saw Rempel trying to defend this populist move on Power and Politics the other day. Her heart wasn’t really in it, especially after Cochrane actually presented real world examples of Canadian workers being very hard to find in outback Canadian locales like his own province of NL which I can confirm right the way through the social spectrum. From Tim Hortons to the GP clinic we would be royally screwed out here without foreigners. They do the work. Meanwhile my taxes pay for a ‘local’ med school that supplies doctors exclusively for the city - apparently wifi not good enough here plus so much call sucks. Indeed, some of these precious darlings come with a long list of what they won’t do out in the sticks. Do you want us all to move to a shanty town around Toronto? Banlieue might sound better until you see it. If PP wants to MODIFY the program, fair enough, but he should do his homework first. National economic change needs to be carefully considered, sensitive to regional differences, and gradual. Do I have to say that?

Osama bin ladin...how did he end up dead....who killed him and who authorized that mission, he was Americas most wanted terrorist for a long time, wanted dead or alive...the list is endless... No they don't, but your president declared them terrorist which open up a whole new bag of options to target these guys... your an American FFS do some of your own research...American SF forces have been killing terrorist for decades now...are you suggesting they were wrong...

Are you saying that NO US president has ordered the deaths of terrorist, what happens to Osama bin laden...did he have a court date.... Yes they are , however it has already been discussed that cartels were now classified as terrorist groups , making them legitimate targets...Do you really think your military would not have researched the targets before engaging...i mean come on... Your right i don't know trump, buy don't think for one second he is the first President to have ordered the killing of terrorist... The US is involved in the war on terror, these guys are terrorist....you don't have to be at war to kill terrorist...why is that so hard to acknowledge...the US is not the only country that does this...

David Eby is in on the rage bating now.

Have fun making your kid work picking strawberries. Or working at Wendys. And if you even hear of a TFW making paid less tan a citizen YOU call the labour board. They're not only breaking the law they're driving every workers wages down. PP only says that to rage bait and you know damn well he wouldn't spend a nickel to investigate or enforce labour laws. Part of your "problem" is young people raised here have enough pride not to demean themselves by working for less than someone else and not enough sense to figure out why it's called a J-O-B and lots of them suck. That was a former supervisors tale: sure I'll hire a kid with2 years at McDonalds over one with the training an no work experience. They fully know why jobs aren't spelled f-u-n and how to eat shit from a Boss.

Ontario is the real economic player in Canada, with the population, tech, industry, minerals, and even energy. Ontario is 40% of Canada’s economy. Quebec has a more diverse economy than Alberta and is hydro power rich. BC and Alberta are also resource rich. Alberta is an oil powerhouse but it’s expensive to extract tar oil, so Alberta’s fortunes rise and fall with the price of oil. Saskatchewan is a breadbasket and potash powerhouse. The territories are full of resource wealth. The Maritimes have oil and fisheries. Canada is all potential and full of wealth, but the people are coming and everyone wants a piece. Canada is getting to a size where it will have the economy of scale to do just about everything affordably in-house. It’s interesting to see Canada striking resource/trade deals right now. A sense of urgency on internal trade, infrastructure and finding new markets.

Depends on the reason they're inviting them. Nobody but a fool thinks Carney is trying to make his party a bunch of far-right fascists.

and the goalposts they are a changin.....

I really hope so....before it is to late...

Pretty clear that means Trump will sic the DoJ on those who defy him just like he's doing to Cook who refuses his ATTEMPT to fire her (without lawful authority). And right wingers here DENY that Trump is a Hitler wanna be. 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮 🤮

That’s how it’s done. The submarine contenders were narrowed down to 2 finalists and they’ll be visiting the Korean facilities soon. No, you’re just so extremely biased you can’t discern reality. Lets just recap that they’ve held numerous full court press conferences on the international stage to unveil these military spending initiatives, announced by the PM himself while standing beside foreign leaders and citing very specific measures and hard numbers, and have reinforced and repeated those statements in virtually every public appearance. Sure, Governments don’t always keep all of their promises but most people understand that they sure wouldn’t ever make such a public commitment to the public and to other heads of state central to their entire agenda if they had no intention of following through. Most people understand the promises they walk away from are the ones that are vague, brief, distanced from the PM and senior cabinet members, and rarely mentioned in public But if you’re someone who believes every single member of the liberal party and anyone who’s voted for them boils and eats babies while raping their own grandmother then there’s no convincing you.

Premier David Eby is now echoing Pierre Poilievre with regard to TFWs. B.C. premier wants temporary foreign worker program cancelled or reformed https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/b-c-premier-wants-temporary-foreign-worker-program-to-be-cancelled-or-reformed-1.7625804

Agreed. That's something people should agree on left or right, the bigger the gov't the less we should be giving them power and money. Keeping it close to home helps keep it more accountable and more in tune with the actual taxpayer.

IT's worth noting btw that if Polievre and the CPC had done the same thing you and your leftist friends would be screaming till their throats were raw about how this is proof that PP is 'maple maga' and selling canada out etc. But when YOUR side does it... cunning!!! LOL please. The guy is basically trolling you and you're still too stupid to see the truth.

The problem right now for Canada is that the Canadian card is only articulated in superficial terms. I don’t think most Canadians know what the general direction of Canada has been or what the country’s core values were or even should be. That’s a problem. Our own federal Liberal government stopped asserting Canada’s cultural roots and decided that being Canadian means having a big expensive government that makes decisions for how people should think and live, and also decided that the population should stop reproducing itself and rely on immigration for the country’s survival. It brought us promotion of non-traditional families and assisted suicide, shaming of the country as settler colonial, and an anti-resource development philosophy that has handcuffed the sectors with the most potential.
