  1. Not really. There is no way to determine if man is causing global warming because man only contributes 3% of the total greenhouse (CO2) in the atmosphere. The other 97% of CO2 is natural. Therefore it has been impossible to prove man is the cause. Man is blamed simply because it is in human nature to blame mankind for everything and now including the weather and climate. Besides it is a good excuse for the U.N. to extort more money from developed nations to give to the rest of the world.

  4. That same girl got an education, she honored her fathers wishes, she made him proud...for me, that was worth 3 years of my life... Why would you know, the majority of Canadians tuned out of Afghanistan on year 2 , and for the more than 16 years that NATO was there then an entire generation of women got an education, got to do things you take advantage of every day, like TV , intra net, open a business, go to school go to university. Advance women's right by empowering Afghanis women...use cell phones, libraries, access to electricity, paved high ways, and a shit ton more.... all paid for with Canadians soldiers lives....there and here... Here is the rub for me, the majority of Canadians did not want us over there, to help a people who could not help themselves, they did not care when we where there , why would they care now... Canadians where happy when funding was cut, not just for the combat portion, but for everything including major projects like rebuilding the dam, schools hospitals etc...DND took all of that on and a lot of the small stuff like hospitals, ambulances, fire trucks was funded by soldiers digging into their own pockets.....not by Canadians back home, there are exceptions like the elderly women from Newfoundland that would knit thousands of pairs of mittens, from free and send them to soldiers to hand them out to afghans children...or the mountains of school supplies that clogged military aircraft every flight, but that was the minority...So why Canadians feel the need to complain or point out what we did or did not do is above me... Justin promised to return the 40,ooo plus Afghanis who help our nation take the fight to the terrorist... and todate we have rescued 10,000, of those numbers 5000 have been rescued by ex military and private donations....which kind of states we still don't give a sweet fuck we got another war to cheer for...sorry for the rant. ....but it is easy to quarter back after the game... Not attacking the opium trade was a political decision had nothing to do with grunts on the ground...but then again you don't seem to understand the economy at the time, farmers made a merger living off of growing opium and they had to feed families as well, it was that or go get paid by the Taliban to fighting us...

  8. If you care about the elderly and infirm, or the mental state of the guy with his hand on the nuclear trigger, you need to watch that video. At 1:20 you'll see what dementia looks like. It's no longer up for debate, it's a matter of who's going to step in and be, at the very least, the figurehead of the US gov't. By rights it should be Kamala, God save us all, but if it's not then there will be an even bigger shitstorm "WHY DID A BLACK WOMAN GET BYPASSED WHEN THE POTUS JOB WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HERS?!?!?". This is a very scary time.

  13. There’s no way of knowing how much of that change in PPM is due to naturally occurring phenomena such as sunspot activity, volcanic activity, orbital distance, whether we are moving towards or away from an ice age, etc. We are more impacted by climate phenomena due to our higher global population. Don’t worry about that, as world population is set to start declining sharply after 2050. Our decreased population and technological advances will reduce emissions. No need to crush families with the Existence Tax (carbon taxes).

  22. Huh...one of my sons tried this one on me. "I have anxiety! I can't get outta bed!" That lasted 1 week with me. I bought the lad Peterson's 12 Rules For Life, made him read it, spoke with him about that and his "feelings", et voila...he got a job, is doing well, found himself a little blond girlfriend, built up his self esteem, and now he still has short bouts with "anxiety"...which I think is simply the result of me spoiling him...but he's productive and now is considering becoming a cop or a fireman. We coddled our kids because we could. The 90's and 2000's were great for work and getting ahead. But we produced a bunch of weaklings. Kids who have no idea how to deal with the real world and are scared of facing it. To the OP: You are every bit as strong as the next person. You just don't realize this yet. Effort builds success builds confidence builds more effort builds more success builds more confidence. Everyone is afraid sometimes. But you cannot let that lead to paralysis of your own life. Face your fears head-on and conquer them. Only that will turn the tide of your life. And trust me...It WILL turn the tide.

  23. "Investigators found that acesulfame potassium and sucralose inhibit the activity of a protein in the body called P-glycoprotein (PGP). PGP pumps many foreign substances out of cells, according to health experts, and is part of a group of transporters that help cleanse the body of drugs, toxins, and drug metabolites. "We observed that sweeteners impacted PGP activity in liver cells at concentrations expected through consumption of common foods and beverages, far below the recommended FDA maximum limits," Stephanie Olivier Van Stichelen, PhD, who lead the research team, said in the release. .... You know how long this shit has been on the market? It's made by a buncha of alchemist tinkerers. .... Bring on the untested mrna vaccines, because "emergency". When are you people gonna learn. Stop trusting the government and their scientific mouthpieces. They're not your mommy.

  25. Some points first - as much for others than you. 1. You and I have a long history but whether we agree or disagree we will always have an honest and productive discussion. This makes me willing to put work into our discussions. 2. I am still researching the housing crisis and it IS a crisis. The causes are not well known, but these things can be established by looking at data. It's as important to solving our political discussion crisis as the housing crisis itself that we do so. 3. I am convinced it's not immigration causing the crisis, but that doesn't mean that I think immigration policies are fine as they are. I feel they are being abused to serve some sponsors,and that healthcare and urban planning are not being given enough care to manage our population growth. When you add to that the political scapegoating that happens with immigration, it means we need to take a pause and look at what is happening. Now - where I got my conclusion from is here. The number of housing completions is generally trending up as is immigration. https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=3410013501&pickMembers[0]=1.1&pickMembers[1]=4.1&cubeTimeFrame.startMonth=01&cubeTimeFrame.startYear=2012&cubeTimeFrame.endMonth=10&cubeTimeFrame.endYear=2021&referencePeriods=20120101%2C20211001 Given that the numbers aren't spiking anything like how home prices are, and given that the average home in Canada has 2.5 residents, and that that number may be more for immigrant families... https://www.oecd.org/els/family/47710686.pdf It doesn't seem that we are not building enough for immigrants. Here's a table I made of the annual totals. This, to me, seems totally adequate on the aggregate to house our immigrant population. What are some possible other causes ? I would estimate that Air BnB has an impact... This graph for NYC shows that they have been spiking upwards... to very high levels as of 2018. https://towardsdatascience.com/airbnb-rental-listings-dataset-mining-f972ed08ddec

  27. While I’m not sure how much these “leaders” realize how much they’ve hurt people, it’s their job to know and to have policies and approaches that are fair-minded and respect individual rights and freedoms, especially as these are constitutional. They crossed lines that make it impossible to respect them as our government. It’s as though a neighbour assaulted a family member or friend. That neighbour’s presence around family and friends is now too uncomfortable to endure. This three year pact between the Liberals and NDP, de facto coalition government, is an affront.

  31. Be careful of trying to lay that on the feet of the current government , they already stated it is not their fault. Population growth is now being driven by our current government, with no signs it will stop or ease up...according to their experts... other experts have been screaming we need to pause and get caught up in infra structure and new housing but the mighty dollar and greed is driving this now......But somehow it is good for the economy, more people mean more money, just in this case it is getting into the wrong hands, investors are making a bang, while the little people can not afford homes Somehow the government can't figure out how to spend on infra structure........Sooner or later this has to top out or crash... my bet is crash , everybody is greedy, and Canadians love dollars prices will rise above what the majority will or can pay for...

  32. I rarely use curse worlds with the people who are not politician, if I did so here, I'm sorry about that, but you really don't know anything about Iran, literally nothing, even me, as a proud Iranian can't claim I know everything about this glorious and beautiful country, and i'm everyday trying to learn more and more about my country and my history. We are all fellow humans, men, women, white, black, eastern, western, non of these differences cause we forget the part of "being a human with brain", you can never trust the Israeli's narrative about us, as you mentioned I24 once, you know why? Cause they're are trators, the Iranian king freed the Jewish slaves while they were attacked and many of them killed, the Iranian king could have not to do it, but he did for the sake of humanity, and after that, other than the jews thank the Iranians, they massacred 77 thousand Iranians, and now, they every year celebrate that day, the day they killed the Iranians who freed them from slavery, you can't trust the west's narrative for the reasons I mentioned in the previous comment, Iran has written the first human rights laws in the world, all over Iran is glory, I've been proud of Iran since I really came to know it, I'm proud of it, cause we've never attacked any single nation, because we are sanctioned only cause we disagree with the illegal occupation of the Zionists in Palestine, only because we want to control our country on our own. Long live IR Iran ??????, and yeah, long live other nations too, why not? Those Americans or Europeans in their homes aren't my enemies, most people want to live their lives, but your governments have never been our friend and have done so many many crimes so far, that's why they lie about us, and you can never trust their narratives. good luck to you and Nationalist and all those who take time and read this.

  33. I got the direct message by the Democrats. Yes, they would prefer I did not exist. The similarities between President Trump and President Biden President Trump agreed to withdraw US forces from Afganistan. President Biden followed through on Trump's commitment. President Trump was "America First." President Biden is "America First." President Trump tried to hold back the human tsunami crossing the southern border. President Biden is trying to hold back the human tsunami crossing the southern border. President Trump ran enormous deficits. President Biden is running even bigger deficits. President Trump fast tracked the developement of covid vaccines and has upset his base by telling the American people to get vaccianted. President Biden has been trying to get everyone vaccianted. There are differences between the administrations, mostly in style, but on the important things, they are quite similar. It just goes to show, governments only have a narrow range of options.

  36. Iran has a highly educated population. Literacy rate is close to 100%. Women in Iran are too highly educated and open minded and starving and fighting for total equality and rights. The Pahlavi dynasty ruling Iran for half a century left its positive influence on Iran society to make it very advanced, especially women who were granted total equality before the coup of 1979. There are few religious fanatics in Iran. However, regime supporters are estimated at around 25 to 30%. They are supporting the regime not for religious reasons but rather self interest. Those associated with the revolutionary guards, secret police and basij, and those clergy who are associated with the regime and their families. They are highly paid and well taken care of while the remaining 70% of population leave in poverty. For first time the absolute poverty is now a majority under this regime. Unlike other fanatical Islamic countries women in Iran enjoy lots of freedom to go to universities (majority being female), drive, work, even vote and be elected except being a judge, singer, dancer, clergy or president of republic which has no power anyway (the unelected body holds all the power in Islamic Republic) or appear in public without scarf as that would be against Islamic laws of 14 centuries ago!!!!That is why the backward regime has so much problem imposing rules or laws belonging to 14th centuries ago upon relatively advanced nation as the nation would fight back hard and disobey and the regime cannot kill or imprison everyone. If they could they would have loved to impose Taliban like rules in Iran but they can't. Thanks to half a century progressive Pahlavi dynasty.

If the vaccine were as useless as you claim ICU's would be overwhelmed with vaccinated people and as I've repeatedly pointed out in dying in the 10's of thousands and at the same rate as the unvaccinated.
