Ha, you don’t know what I do or what I have handled, but that’s fine. None of the discussion about Indigenous injustice is about me or what I want. My only concern is getting it right. When I hear inaccuracies and the inevitable painting of some people as angels and others as demons, when I know there was plenty of bad behaviour to go around, I have to call it out. You don’t get to wear the victim shirt unless your individual story warrants it. More often than not it isn’t as simple as good guys versus bad, and it often turns out that the wolf versus grandma show is a distraction from what’s really going on.

Excuse you. The MSM is all fake news until it says something I want to hear. Then, it's reliable, but only for this.

If you read the story those Canadians who like socialism want someone else to pay for it, not them. That is not new. Canadians love government programs; the more the merrier, just as long as someone else pays for it.

It's not relevant. It's no more relevant than ice cream or computers. It's religion based bigotry. You don't want gay people to marry because your cult is against it, so you come up with desperate ideas to try to prove your point.

I see you're playing that old trick of trying to flood people with mulitple responses in the hopes one gets missed and you can pretend you "won" or whatever LOL I'll deal with all your ...er.... 'thinking' in one spot Facts. And no it would save us nothing. The fact that there are issues on the first nations side doesn't change anything we'd owe. I've explained this to you. I know it's difficult but try to pay attention. Ummm - you realize what i originally believed was that you thought the res schools were a bad thing. Soooo - believing you thought they were bad was 'retarded'? You don't spend a lot of time thinking before you type do you. ROFLMAO Is THAT why you're posting multiple posts? Hoping i wont' be able to find where you were being stupid? Bad news ... they're all pretty much you being stupid God you REALLY REALLY aren't very good at this It's like having my own trained monkey to watch

Sure. Drink this kool-aid.

Trump lawyers try to ban ‘Access Hollywood’ tape from trial Wonder if the jury will buy Trump's (always) belated clean up attempt. FWIW, I never heard anyone in ANY locker room bragging about sexual assault.

Can't stop laughing my ass off at this one. https://redstateobserver.com/article.asp?id=213767&fbclid=IwAR30FY2GTqG0j49vUrJvQaKeD8fxPFj8x4Uep83IUEUMZwhYZU8mL8cAj_U ‘No, No, No, No’: Radical Black Activist Angela Davis Learns She Is Descended From A Mayflower Passenger Radical black activist Angela Davis was visibly shocked when she learned that she was a descendant of the pilgrims on the Mayflower.The self-avowed Marxist feminist and former black power activist in the 1970s appeared as a guest on the PBS series “Finding Your Roots” Tuesday. During her interview, host Henry Louis Gates, Jr. revealed that she is a descendant of one of the original passengers on the Mayflower, William Brewster.Gates shared a clip of the segment on Twitter. “Any idea what you’re looking at?” he asks. “That is a list of the passengers on the Mayflower.” Davis is in complete astonishment. “No, I can’t believe this,” she says, laughing and throwing her hands up. “No, my ancestors did not come here on the Mayflower,” she laughs again.“Your ancestors came here on the Mayflower,” Gates repeats. “You are descended from one of the 101 people who sailed on the Mayflower.” https://www.westernjournal.com/no-no-no-no-radical-activist-angela-davis-dismayed-learn-ancestors-owned-slaves-arrived-mayflower/ No No No No': Radical Activist Angela Davis Dismayed to Learn Her Ancestors Owned Slaves, Arrived on Mayflower

Trudeau wasn't elected. He was installed. Like a toilet.

Not if they really are. j/k Maybe the right word is "intolerant". They've got a zero-tolerancep policy, for intolerance. So does that mean the right has tolerance for intolerance? Possibly. But not when it comes from the left. So that's where we are headed as a society. Polarized out the nut, and I for one am getting sick and tired of it. I just want some peace and quiet...

Everyone came from somewhere, including Indigenous. Lots of invasions, wars, and displacements going back millennia. Guess what, the settlers keep coming, 500,000 a year. Do we require that they give stuff to the people who were born here? Are Indigenous designated as the “get free stuff” group ad infinitum? If you want to fund welfare prison camp two-tier citizenship, you can advocate for that while I advocate for equal treatment under the law and self determination without special treatment. The culture of “We’ll take care of you because we know what you deserve” has created dependency and dysfunction. That’s cultural genocide because it weakens peoples and puts them in human zoos. Nothing is free, and until Indigenous can both make their own decisions and pay their own bills, real progress won’t happen. Many Indigenous have already moved on from colonial arrangements and handouts.

Good point little herbie. We all need to keep it a bit more on topic. In some cases, alot more...

And our institutions are having account for their actions. Why? Liability for our institutions is a collective one we're all responsible for. If anything you people who seem to think you bear no liability should pay an extra penalty for helping to drag out the process. Remember what I told you about water under the bridge? Why should I have to pay extra for the cost you add you everything? It's the same with climate change.

NYP would NOT EVEN RELEASE the CONTENTS of the hard drive to ANYONE when the story ran. That alone makes it HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS. No one else is going to publish the story WITHOUT that HARD EVIDENCE. AND the UNKNOWN chain of custody means Russians could easily have modified the HARD DRIVE.

Abortion has Sweet F*** All to do with antisemitism on the Left. So STFU already, you're just incapable of discussing an issue without deflecting to an entirely different issue. Successfully draqged everyone into discussing an entirely different subject you think you have a chance of "winning" at.

FYI: The author you're quoting has no medical credentials to speak of, yet you're just writing her opinions down as if they carry weight - they don't. When a layman writes something like this about a Harvard-educated epidemiologist, you have to take it with a grain of salt: But how do you take it with a grain of salt when it's just her opinion? She has no stats or anything there. I don't really care what she thinks about Jefferson, Cochrane in general, or anything else for that matter.

Oh, sure. Everything you said was correct, if you ignore the lies and outright farking nonsense. No, Trump's FBI, led by his hand-picked director, Christopher Wray, didn't interfere in the election to help Joe Biden. They made a deliberate choice to remain professionally aloof and to NOT repeat the mistakes of 2016. You claimed the FBI made a statement about Russian disinformation in October 2020. That was an outright lie. You later claimed that the FBI organized a group of retired private citizens to make a statement about Russian disinformation. Which is preposterous. And in fact, the letter didn't make a definitive statement, but simply raised a warning. You claimed that retired individuals like Clapper and Brennan spoke with the power of the "FBI brand" (as FBI lackeys, no less) when neither of them was ever even affiliated with the FBI. In fact, of the 51 signatories to the letter, NOT A SINGLE ONE was affiliated with the FBI. You claim the FBI "primed" the MSM while you know nothing about the quality of the intel regarding a potential disinformation campaign. That seems sinister to you because you are desperately grasping at any straw to keep your conspiracy alive. Indeed, the Russians were engaged in shenanigans again in 2020. Honestly, your are just full of crap from top to bottom, spouting off about things which you don't understand, and making claims that are entirely unmoored from logic. I'm sure it all makes perfect sense in the conspiracy fever swamp though.

On my errands to town I usually had three - four stops at public places to make, post office, grocery store etc. the distance to town is 15 minutes but less than a minute between stops in town. I'd put my mask in town and leave it on when driving between stops because the mask's straps always got tangled up with my hearing aids and glasses meaning talking it off and on was a hassle. I had to spend a few minutes looking through the snow once for a hearing aid that flipped off when I took off a mask. If anyone laughed at me I found the best response was to just smile wave and say baaaaa! Saying baaaaa in someone people's faces seems get up their noses even more effectively than flipping them the bird. As for the effectiveness of masks and measures in general...I simply look at the levels of public disdain for measures and outcomes between the US and Canada where there was a clear unequivocal difference in attitudes towards the whole thing. It seems patently obvious that a lot more Canadians were willing to smile and say baaaaa than Americans and they paid a greater price in terms of deaths and hospitalizations full stop. Outcomes stemming from measures and attitudes were very predictable due to data from the Spanish Flu on these twinned issues and were why I said early in March 2020 that the US would fare much worse and I was right. Full stop. Betsey remembers that, ask her

There's no rational reason to stop gay people from getting married. I would advise people who want society to be run on religious grounds against using words like rational.

There is no way for someone to get pregnant accidentally. (Seriously, are you REALLY this fcking STUPID?) If you engage in the DELIBERATE activity that results in pregnancy, it is not an accident. The exceptions to this that reasonable people accept are (a) RAPE (where there is no consent) (b) INCEST (where there is no legal consent) and saving the life of the mother.

Do you just not remember what you claim from one post to the next?You don't seem remember lying about the FBI releasing a statement. You don't seem remember claiming that a bunch of retired intelligence officers who shared a warning publicly were "lackeys" for the FBI, (even though the individuals you called out had never even worked for the FBI)? Okay, so you've abandoned multiple claims along the way and you're left with... not much. If they didn't release a statement as you earlier claimed (they didn't) and they didn't organize a gaggle of retirees to release a statement as you earlier claimed (they didn't) then you've now twisted yourself around so much that you've arrived at the conclusion that the FBI interfered in the election by not doing anything to interfere in the election. Genius! A masterful move on their part.

Ah, so if someone gets pregnant accidentally, then abortion is okay? I agree with that.

And here's the thing. Appeasement never avoids a war, at best it deferrs it Saying "we dont' need to add ww3 to our problems" suggests that if we allow putin to have his way then he'll be happy and that will be the end of it. But history teaches us otherwise. Giving him Crimea did not make him go away happy, it emboldened him to invade Ukraine just a few years later. If we back down now, he'll know all he has to do is threaten ww3 to get whatever else he wants. Didn't work with hitler either. Just ask Neville Chamberlin. I can't think of a time in history that it did work. You beat a bully by ignoring his threats and smashing him in the face till he gets the message. THAT is how you avoid WW3, not by capitulation.

The whole point of the quote function is to be able to directly refer to someone's comments, and deconstruct their reasoning. You've a pretty goofy tendency to just sort of make up the other poster's argument to suit your needs and argue against that, rather than actually argue or refer to (or quote) what they're saying. That's undoubtedly why you think you're so smart. Winning debates is so easy when you're actually just debating with yourself. 🤣

Well we're talking about one here, so...ya. 🤡 We could also talk about Harper implementing the PBO, and then basically feuding with him at every turn. We can talk about the Senate expense scandals, the failing grades on transparency and access to information, the G20 debacle, muzzling scientists, pro-rogueing parliament, funneling something like 80% of infrastructure spending into conservative ridings, the in-and-out election financing scandal, robo-calls, contempt for parliament, and then (my favorite) - railing about Liberal Omnibus bills and snap-elections, but then passing omnibus bills himself as PM and calling snap elections after his Bill C-16 implemented fixed-election dates. You have a really bad habit of making up goofy strawmen to argue against. 🤡 Nobody said anyone was voting in FAVOR of actual corruption and bad governance, and nobody said anyone was forced to vote Liberal. My statement was that unless a superior alternative was presented (which in the case of Trudeau is actually a pretty low bar), he'll keep getting elected. 🤷‍♂️

You have nothing to subtract either because nothing private was confiscated to pay for land claims. The government was and still are buying back fishing licences from non-native fishermen, they're not just simply seizing the licences.

Once in awhile a hermetically sealed troll posts something that warrants response, even if for the subject line. 1. Descendants ? Meaning her children, or children's children, or later.... okaaaay. 2. Ancestors, I guess is what you mean. So you have now "discovered" that white slaveowners raped their slaves. Just brilliant. Really you should go away.

Yes, boys and girls. BLACKS OWNED SLAVES. https://pjmedia.com/columns/kevindowneyjr/2021/06/19/slave-stories-history-forgot-black-people-owned-slaves-too-n1455761 Slave Stories History 'Forgot.' Black People Owned Slaves Too Surprised? I'm not. After all AFRICAN BLACKS SOLD THEIR OWN PEOPLE INTO SLAVERY TO BEGIN WITH.

They are equal threats IMO. Russia has the natural resources and nuclear power. China has the manufacturing and the military size.

Why you...commie Nazi! There'll certainly be no discount waiting for you when you finally get around to visiting!

Banning Airbnb and presumably every other STR platform would also cause homelessness especially amongst seniors for whom Airbnb represents a viable occupation with the family home once the kids move out. Around here lots of 'kids' who do manage to buy a home can only do so because they run a STR to make owning their home more affordable. The key is increasing density often in spite of nimby's who've kept density low. Most of the old local nimby's have died or moved on and now in addition to my Airbnb I can legally also rent an apartment to a younger co-worker that was displaced from her old place to make way for a...you know what. I can also offer her some employment cleaning our STR and hopefully extend our means to stay in our own home for as long as possible. The demand for housing has been here ever since I came to the coast 50 years ago and built a driftwood shack on Long Beach. We're not all monsters and some of us do want to be part of the solution, I'm just thankful I can be and yes it is profitable. I'm sorry?

Don't have a clue what genocide means. Don't have a clue what racism is. Don't have clue what right and left mean politically. But can't STFU that they must be all connected because they don't like something. The Triumph of the Ignoroids.

So you're okay with a woman choosing to have an abortion as long as it's not just for cosmetic reasons?

Crushing a baby's skull and ripping his/her limbs from his/her body just to look good in a prom dress IS FCKING GENOCIDE. You make Adolf Eichmann look like a saint.

You don't speak for "everyone." Your goose stepping Nazi movement represents a minority of America, (even as you thugs send in illegal ballots to win elections you cannot win legally. Most people agree with me. Only the uneducated cretins agree with you.

Turpel was appointed a couple of years ago by the BC NDP government to investigate racism against FNs in the health care system in BC. Now we hear she was no native. The NDP fell for it and thought they were appointing a native to investigate the health care system. We went into the ER (emergency room) last fall and waited six hours to be seen while a young native came in half way through that time, sat in a chair playing on his smart phone, and was taken in to be treated after about 20 minutes. Didn't seem to be suffering or in pain in any way. I suspect Turpel may have instructed the health care system to give natives some kind of priority in ERs. The BC NDP seems to be bending over backward to look like they are giving natives special considerations. They passed UNDRIP and gave a large piece of land to natives up in northwest B.C. The NDP are giving natives their own justice council. Home - BC First Nations Justice Council (bcfnjc.com)

Not at all! What kind of tyrant goes around telling someone else who they can and cannot marry?

To be cool? Lying about white people is the easiest way to get street cred nowadays, and actually being white is bad for your brand. "I identify as someone with no DNA-based guilt, who is morally superior to everyone else."

and the Canadian Socialist healthcare system was invented by whom, again ? Pastor Tommy Douglas, ordained Minister of Calvary Baptist Church in Weyburn Saskatchewan follower of the Christian Social Gospel movement

There is no such thing as "unborn babies." Babies are BORN. Fetus are dependent on the individual woman. No ONE forces women to get an abortion. You NEVER answered whether you're willing to PAY to COMPENSATE women for WHAT YOU WANT. I'm guessing that's cause YOU WON'T. AKA, you want to enslave women.

Why waste your time with people so screwed in the head they equate birth control with genocide. And block headed enough not to distinguish criticism of a state's policy with racism.

Really? That must mean slavery is okay if it's good enough for 1st Nations. Closing Roxham Road is a big mistake, it should be turned into a auction-market don't you think? Hopefully they'll set up an online ordering system so I can get a couple slaves shipped to me.

Nope. I do however feel that rubbing salt in the right-wing's wounds is appropriate under a large growing number of circumstances - like the notion that the left is destroying Western civilization. 🤣

The abortion industry has decimated the African American community. It was no accident. https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/09/ruth_bader_ginsburg_eugenicist.html

There is an incredible amount of revisionist history going on here, as if all these things happened on day 1. Did you forget that the provenance of the information was so questionable and sketchy that the reporters at the NY Post wouldn't even put their byline on it? Seriously, someone at a two-bit tabloid like the Post was worried about damaging their credibility just by signing the story. The WSJ was working hard to establish provenance. It's not like this thing came with a certificate of authenticity or any chain of custody. It is NOT the FBI's job to go around correcting speculation about weird laptops and the jumble of claims around it. And to this day nothing incriminating about Joe Biden has come out of this laptop fiasco. Why should voters have gone to the polls with unsubstantiated speculation in mind that bears the imprimatur of the FBI. That's EXACTLY what the FBI did in 2016 with the effect of tilting the field and EXACTLY what they wanted to avoid in 2020.

If religious people really believed that a God has given us free will they wouldn't complain about anything. Obviously, they won't ever bloody shut up, so we can assume they don't believe the free will garbage. Or at least, if they claim they do, they are hypocrites.

In rural places, cows tell people who to vote for. In urban places, avocados tell people who to vote for. Flora vs fauna, the age old battle for supremacy. I fully believe in this conspiracy theory, and you should too.

I fear that the new military doctrine is to destroy/make non functional . Post: 1991 Serbia? No bridges. Chechnya? Destroyed. Post: 9 Sept 2001 Iraq? Internal mess. Libya? Uncivilsed. Syria? Civil war. Lebanon? Dysfunctional. ======= As the US has done with other places, Russia has decided that Ukraine will no longer function.
