In response to the AI crap posed by your favorite Tweenkie and mine... @robosmith. Libbies are in the grips of fear and loathing. This state of being is very unhealthy. https://www.takingcharge.csh.umn.edu/impact-fear-and-anxiety Digestive issues...heart issues...mental issues. All due to excessive and persistent fear. The Libbies now live in a world they're terrified of. Fear of germs from other people. Fear of the planet's climate. Fear of voting regulations. Fear of Caucasians. Fear of Christians. Fear of common sense. All creating psychotic freaks who are heart attack candidates who's guts are rotting. Then there's loathing...or hatred. https://drfarrahmd.com/2025/08/hate-hurts-the-physical-and-emotional-effects-of-hatred-and-how-to-overcome-it/ Oh my! Hatred is destructive too. In fact more destructive than fear. Orangemanbad. Closed borders. Deportations. Police. Opposing opinions and views. Their own flag and nation. Yes...Libbies are very unhealthy people in many ways. Their life of fear and loathing has created millions of physically and psychologically damaged people. Tortured souls. Terrorists. Traitors. Is that the type of person that should hold power? Not really, eh?

Hey TDS cultists - you lose, again.

Why Trump is now able to make a move in the Middle East? This infographic shows that North America is the largest producer of oil and no longer reliant on the Middle East for its energy needs.

The two mainstream leftist personalities with the ability to think/speak across party lines on occasion. In a world that's becoming FAR too polarized, at least those guys can sometimes sway towards reason and logic.

So are Cultist Colbert and Komrade Kimmel. So are CNN and MSNBC.

I always know that you know you've lost when you can't post anything but insults. 🤣

All of the anti-Trump cultists and hate-fomenting losers on the Left beware - your words can lead you to jail. Leftist extremism and violence from this horrible segment of society is the largest threat to democracy in Canada and the USA right now.

Tell that to Obama, I'm sure he will sell his oceanfront property.

I’ve never had anyone in my life or my close friends or family murdered…. Oh well, I guess murders don’t happen and are no big deal.

Give it up. Everyone agrees the climate changes.

Wow. Leftist calls for violence are quite frequent, and those calls are answered often, with no charges ever being laid. That guy must have been really specific.

Ignore the left4rd clowns.. This is just their usual bs: "EVWEEFING DAT BAD BAD TWUMPO DO IZ WONG, MOMMY 😭!!!" The US is even stepping into the insurance gig in the Strait of Hormuz, and that didn't just start yesterday. They were talking about Iran possibly mining the strait or attacking shipping there since the very beginning. THIS WAS NEVER GOING TO BE A PERFECT WAR WITH NO COLLATERAL DAMAGE OR CASUALTIES, dummies. But it's still going better than expected.

There was a poster on here, Argus, once posted a background on how Trump bought an airline with the intent of making a shuttle to his casino in Atlantic city. That was one of his bankruptcies. But the thing was, according to the poster he embarked on the whole venture based on a gut feel... No numbers analysis was done to see if it was work. It didn't. Trump seems to know that gas prices have a big impact on electability, so the fact that he's impacted gas prices for months based on this adventure should tell you that he is not a strategic thinker. Whoever made the Trump money in the first place probably was, but the progeny was not interested in math or listening to people who talked about math. That's pretty clear..

Can’t handle the inconvenient truth and you don’t even have an intelligent rebuttal, just a generic ad-hominem insult as usual like a typical conservative.

But LUser probably has no more respect for fallen soldiers than Trump. MAGA always looks to their leader for permission to show their vulgarity.

You’re so dishonest. You know the issue is 1) He refused to take off his nasty golf hat when honouring fallen soldiers. EXACTLY the kind of thing Conservatives claim to care about the most and shit their pants over when they think someone on “the left” didn’t show proper respect for. You people shit your pants when Biden glanced at his watch AFTER honouring fallen troops. You’re such dishonest hypocrites and 2) Fox News altering footage to hide this from the public. Didn’t you people just finish shitting your pants over CBS, BBC and other media outlets you claim altered footage and Trump is now suing them for jillion zillion dollars? You’re such dishonest hypocrites

Just disgusting fear-mongering.

He's the aggrieved party here. Those "losers and suckers" were delaying his tee time! That's the ultimate sacrifice.

It's been talked about countless times with countless scientific papers published.... It's unequivocal. You're part of that far right knuckle dragging crowd that is obliged to deny climate change anyway so it's a pointless and would be a wasted exercise trying to explain otherwise to you.

Not to belabor the point, but the article title uses the word "distress". To the point it affects their life decisions. And almost 40% say it affects their life negatively. I think that's a bit more than just "concerned", don't you? I see you think this is good thing. I disagree.

So what you're saying is that when US policy and auto industry decided to go down the EV path 5 years ago we should have just said 'no thanks' then.....right? Are you capable of commenting on ANYTHING without blaming the liberals? I'm curious....

Google says you're a lying sack of shit, you lying sack of shit In fact going back to the 90's we find papers and documents refuting the idea that 'climate change is a crisis" Many climate change scientists do not agree that global warming is happening - PMC So. what you're saying is YOU"VE never googled it and you're entire position is based on non scientific sources. Whether most scientists outside climatology believe that global warming is happening is less relevant than whether the climatologists do. A letter signed by over 50 leading members of the American Meteorological Society warned about the policies promoted by environmental pressure groups. “The policy initiatives derive from highly uncertain scientific theories. They are based on the unsupported assumption that catastrophic global warming follows from the burning of fossil fuel and requires immediate action. This trend continued with many scientists publishing data and peer reviewed papers questioning if it's a crisis (PDF) ‘Global warming is not a crisis!’: Studying climate change skepticism on the Web Seeing as you like non scientific links i''ll give you one, but even this one links to actual research Evidence does not support ‘climate crisis’ claims | Fraser Institute "other research suggests what most people intuitively know---because Canada's climate is colder, global warming could produce higher benefits and lower costs for Canada than the U.S. For example, Canada's agriculture and tourism industries would likely benefit from warmer temperatures." The link to that study is in the article There are dozens more. BUt i've given examples spanning almost 3 decades. So I've got no problem finding tons of stuff that says climate change isn't actually a crisis Isn't it interesting that you can't find a single bit of science that says it IS a crisis Well if you want to stay on topic why not actually post some scientific studies instead of admitting you don't have any

Okay.... and the point is what? Yes, common knowledge EV sales are not what the industry thought they would be and have/are pivoting accordingly. You're spot on by saying the removing of subsidies and buyer rebate incentives attributed to the sales decline in the category, but what do you think would happen if the next US administration thinking is similar minded to the Biden administration auto policies?

They make stupid voting decisions that destroy this country.

FIFY Nevertheless, YOU made a false accusation in this thread, regarding trans, so YOU STILL NEED TO BACKUP YOUR OWN FALSE ACCUSATION REGARDING TRANS. What's your new standard? Linkie: "You can lie about things that are OT in a thread, and then you never have to back your lies up, because people can never refer back to them"

Poilievre believes the gov't should support the free market by not over-regulating and over-taxing, but not manage the free market or pick winners and losers. They're clearly bad at it. It's not just the auto industry the Liberals lost investments in. It's been every far-left radical idea that's come along, including a cricket factory where 10s of millions went down the toilet, because they were sure we all wanted to eat crickets. Poilievre believes the government needs to stick to doing its job - managing the economy, managing the budget - and get the hell out of every minute detail of our lives.

Your comment: Again, you talked about people's rights being taken away, and you haven't provided any evidence of that. Put up or shut up.

Paid for by George Soros - King of Chaos.

If everyone had the luxury of hindsight there would be few to no miscalculations of policies. The fact though is that the NA auto industry is highly integrated and if the dog (US) moves in a certain direction the tail (Canada and Mexico) inevitably follows. Nobody ever said EV's were for everyone.... with maybe the exception of Trudeau. If the value of exiting an investment is the best long term move for a company they'll do it every day. To try and retain that business and the employment that accompanies it? Again, this is a hindsight thing so answers become much easier if you know the outcome. Do I assume you believe that knowing there has been a decline in Canadian auto sector for many years we should have just said 'to hell with it' and pulled the plug on any form of incentives years ago rather than to trying to retain that business? You can only dance with the girls you brought to the party....who actually were already there dating back 80 years or so. You'll have to pardon me, but this is freaking hilarious.... and not because it's Poilievre, but the clown does add more humour to it.... A tariff-free auto pact.... seriously! I wonder if Carney and team have thought about that? You obviously haven't been paying attention to what Trump has said about our respective auto industries and his belief the US doesn't need Canada or our cars. Read above.., This is the exact opposite path Trump wants to take. I'm sure Poilievre does, but do you honestly believe that the US would be on-board with more auto production in Canada so we can eliminate US tariffs and export more there? That's comical....and highly uneducated given the what we know about the current trade position of the US. I know you're seriously anti-liberal but do you not think for maybe even a second that Carney and team have been lobbying for the same? I do see merit with this. It's too bad though he's always a year behind and should have suggested this last year when the tariffs began rather than defaulting to his only schtick of blaming Trudeau and liberals for everything, or waiting until the he needed to pivot because of his political failures. Again, you're anti-liberal, who has been doing this exact thing for the past year. The challenge Poilievre has is that he's the forklift driver. If you want to discuss business partnerships you need to be talking to the principles and influencers, not the forklift drivers. Makes sense.... Sell more oil at a lower price to US customers rather than getting a longer dollar with other export partners. I'll defer to what I said a few times above....energy security has been and is a topic of discussion in the trades talks. Correct, the objective is to argue for free trade.... that's a no-brainer. I look at it differently.... Carney hasn't 'failed' to negotiate a solution but rather it's very obvious that he won't agree to a trade deal that doesn't benefit Canada. That's simple business you learn in class 101. "Orange man' is bad for Canada....that's become quite obvious hasn't it? And yes, it does benefit Carney because of his background that Canadian's far prefer over the alternatives background resume of....,???

Yup, it's a head scratcher. They hate the US too. It wasn't too long ago that democrats actually liked America.

Where do we get this from? Gee... who knows?! It is a total mystery... “Adults keep saying: “We owe it to the young people to give them hope.” But I don’t want your hope. I don’t want you to be hopeful. I want you to panic. I want you to feel the fear I feel every day. And then I want you to act. I want you to act as you would in a crisis. I want you to act as if the house is on fire. Because it is.”

1000% Exactly. They propped her up for a decade. Official Government Climate Change gatherings... you name it. She was the poster child for action, as she sat on the street corner like a dooms day carinval barker crying about how we were destroying her future. Now these guys on here, as they try to claim they are so reasonable, pretend they have no idea what we are talking about like none of this happened.

No, it was Iran. Why are you covering for them?

Stop weaselling. YOU turned this transvestite topic into a main thrust of this thread, no one else I gave you the opportunity to explain your "conservatives are stripping rights away from people" comment and you ran away screaming sandbox insults like a child. Just man up and admit that conservatives did no such thing and we can close off this side-topic.

No...not really

Why not? I didn't know there was a dress code. Was this just a new rule you made up because Trump did it.

Wearing a baseball cap PROVES he was NOT "respectful of the troops." Duh

LMAO I love how you are going out of your way to INVENT excuses that even Fox didn’t try to offer. They had the footage just like every other network did. They used old footage first amd then later when using the correct footage they edited out shots of Teump wearing his hat. Pretty pathetic attempt on your part. I am not inconvenienced by Trump amd Fox once again being exposed for what they are. I am very convenienced by it actually

No we are not destroying or even severely harming the atmosphere. Please get a grip on your fear-porn. I agree that Man will continue to research other sources of energy. But until we have a RELIABLE substitute...you have to stop advocating for financial and life-style destruction.

Better than nothing, but I think the whole thing needs a top-down culture change and a mandate review.

How Hegseth Came to See Moral Purpose in War as Weakness … For decades, presidents and their secretaries of defense have framed American military interventions in altruistic terms. Even though the truth was often more complicated, they cast U.S. troops as liberators bringing democracy and freedom to those living under tyranny and oppression. Mr. Hegseth has largely dispensed with that talk. His bellicose, at times vengeful, rhetoric reflects his belief that the United States’ lofty goals in Iraq and Afghanistan caused the military to lose focus on its main task, killing the enemy, and led to costly defeats in both wars. In his view, the U.S. military’s strength is not rooted in its high ideals, humanity or moral purpose, but rather its ability to punish adversaries. Anything that distracts from that singular mission, he has said, is weakness. “This is not 2003. This is not endless nation building,” Mr. Hegseth said on Tuesday at the Pentagon. “It’s not even close. Our generation of soldiers will not let that happen again.” Instead, he said, the U.S. military was pursuing Mr. Trump’s war objectives with “brutal efficiency, total air dominance and an unbreakable will.” .. Mr. Hegseth wrote in his book “American Crusade” that he initially “mocked” Mr. Trump’s presidential campaign in 2016, put off by his reality TV celebrity and his style. But after Mr. Trump was elected, the two men found common cause in Mr. Hegseth’s campaign to pardon three U.S. troops — two soldiers and a member of the Navy SEALs — who had been accused or convicted of war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan. In two of the three instances, the service members were turned in by their own troops — the men they were charged with leading in combat. Mr. Hegseth, then a Fox News host, cast the accused as victims of muddled military thinking and overly restrictive rules of engagement that had prevented troops from killing insurgents and defending themselves. The whistle-blowing soldiers said they were defending their honor and a moral code. On the day Mr. Trump decided to pardon the three men in late 2019, he called Mr. Hegseth to share the news. Mr. Trump ended the conversation with a compliment that Mr. Hegseth wrote he would “never forget.” “You’re a warrior, Pete,” Mr. Trump told him, adding an expletive for emphasis. “It was a hallowed night,” Mr. Hegseth recalled. As secretary of defense — Mr. Hegseth prefers to be called the “secretary of war” — he vowed to return the military’s focus to killing the enemy. “Maximum lethality, not tepid legality,” he said this year. “Violent effect, not politically correct.” His diagnosis of the military’s shortcomings is one that often emerges after a lost war. “There’s always someone who thinks that if only we were crueler, if only we’d killed another million Vietnamese, then we would have won this war,” said Phil Klay, a novelist and a Marine Corps veteran of the Iraq war. “If you reduce war to the satisfied feeling you get when you kill the enemy, it makes it a lot simpler and more satisfying.” Mr. Hegseth’s views also mirror those of Mr. Trump, who has consistently rejected the idea that the United States by virtue of its unique history and superpower status has a special role in the world with regard to spreading democracy or defending freedom. Mr. Trump’s and Mr. Hegseth’s views are reflected in the name they have given to the Iran mission. In the past, the Pentagon has chosen names that sought to send a message to the American people and the world that the military was fighting for some higher ideal, such as “Operation Enduring Freedom” in Afghanistan or “Operation Unified Protector” in Libya. For the Iran mission, Mr. Hegseth signed off on “Epic Fury,” a name that connotes retribution and rage. To the pilots flying missions and sailors firing missiles into Iran, the bellicose rhetoric is, for now, most likely background noise. They are focused on the immediate, and often dangerous, task at hand. But over the longer term, couching wars in moral terms, such as defending democracy or protecting civilians, gives troops a framework to understand why they are being asked to kill. “Moral language acts as a psychological scaffolding for service members,” said Michael Valdovinos, a former Air Force psychologist and author of the forthcoming book “Moral Injuries.” “When that disappears, it can leave troops carrying the moral burden alone.” One question is whether a war waged without a clear moral purpose and with mixed support from the American public will weigh heavier on the troops fighting it after the shooting stops. “Some might say at least they’re being honest about the fact that it’s just sheer brute force,” said Elliot Ackerman, who led Marines in the second battle of Falluja in Iraq and now writes novels and nonfiction works that frequently focus on the moral complexity of war. “But it’s also very dangerous. You’re asking people to die for the ambitions of a president and a moral calculus that’s no greater than might makes right.” Moral justifications and public support matter to troops taking lives on behalf of their country. “I can tell you from experience on the back end, it doesn’t feel very good to have participated in a war that everybody thinks was a disaster,” Mr. Ackerman said. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/03/12/us/politics/hegseth-iran-war.html?campaign_id=9&emc=edit_nn_20260312&instance_id=172378&nl=the-morning&regi_id=75993516&segment_id=216544&user_id=664847c7fcd4c2f213cbe5bb8a541805

"Suspected"? And of course there's no bias against brown-skinned people in Swedish police departments, is there? Does this include 'white-collar crime'? https://johnhoward.ca/blog/immigration-and-crime/ More immigration correlated with less crime Jung cites several previous studies that found either no relationship between immigration and crime or, in some cases, a correlation between increased immigration numbers and lower crime rates, using a variety of measures of population and of crime. Her study looks at 32 census metropolitan areas (cities) across Canada over 35 years.

Trump told you trans were taking over women sports and you believed him. Do you not have better things to be concerned about? Why do I need to define a woman... I married one.

All Republicans do? You are such an extreme partisan hack in your stupid comments here. Every Democrat in modern history has also engaged in warmongering. I think Carter is the only exception.

If you can't offer your own arguments or commentary, stop spamming here.

Where to begin...

LOL I love the Moose.

Saying antifa isn't a violent, extremist movement is just as absurd as saying voter ID laws are a form of suppression.

There are two visions for Canada and they are both very different: Poilievre: Approve energy projects in 6 months Export energy globally Remove energy taxes Carney: More taxes, More sacrifice More immigration More Net Zero restrictions
