  1. Craigslist couldn't care less. Have you ever seen him interviewed?
  2. [quote name="Second-class Canadian" post="1068438" timestamp=" Recognizing that our workforce is more internationally mobile than ever before in our recorded history, the Federal Government should negotiate common educational standards for various trades and professions with ministries of education at home and abroad. On the social front, we need to combat the sex trade and addictions. If possible, require internet providers to block pornographic websites, requiring anyone who wants access to them to contact the provider to opt in. Also, recognizing that prohibiting websites in Canada from advertizing sexual services is completely useless in the absence of international agreements, negotiate agreements with other countries to block such sites or at least regulate them by requiring educational advertising on pages that advertise such services. The educational advertising could include available government funding for trades and professional education, literacy education, crisis and addiction helplines, psychological services, sex addiction therapy, 12-step groups, etc. These are just some of the subjects that an independent liberal-conservative MP could present to Parliament free from the constraints of the CPC. And why would craigslist agree to this?
  3. That is my point. There are no negative externalities and for shady to suggest otherwise is insulting to every single human being.
  4. I did include this achievement in the other thread although it was added later.
  5. They have to start somewhere in opening lines of communication. The embassies will only add to the mix. I can't see how anyone would think this is a bad move.
  6. An Ontario court has upheld the ontario's law society refusal to accredit Trinity's law school. The judges slammed the covenant calling it discriminatory. I'd copy the link but not sure how to on my smart phone. It is on the Cbc website.
  7. You are simply too wordy for any meaningful discussion.
  8. America needs to think us for exporting such wonderful talent.
  9. Of course, Hawksley Workman!
  10. They don't have a seat at the feminist table when they are condemning feminists. Pretty simple. They have a seat at the opposite table.
  11. Blue Rodeo - Five Days in July Fantastic album. I've seen them live a few times.
  12. Gordon Lightfoot, A Painter Passing Through.
  13. I agree 'Arcade Fire'. What a fantastic band out of Quebec. This is the vid of them performing live on David Letterman: Watch the drummer.
  14. Feminists are devaluing men, thereby causing an indirect impact on suicides of men. Oh Please....... Do you honestly think that you can be taken seriously?
  15. Thanks BC! I can only assume it was easier for you to find this link than provide information on the other thread. Kudos to Kimmy for doing a bit of research to provide the information you neglected to provide.
  16. What does males of all races having a higher suicide rate have to do with feminists?
  17. What is completely wrong is associating individuals fighting for women's rights with a direct impact on male suicides, which is what you are doing.
  18. And I'm sure this is part of the agenda.
  19. It has been over 5 decades since embassies in the U.S. have been shuttered. It looks like a deal has been reached between the two countries to move forward with this (after 18 months of secret negotiations). Some Facts: Polls show a majority of Americans support Mr Obama's efforts to improve ties. The island is still subject to a US trade embargo put in place in 1962, which Mr Obama has called on Congress to lift. A Republican congresswoman from south Florida, said in a statement: "Opening the American Embassy in Cuba will do nothing to help the Cuban people and is just another trivial attempt for president Obama to go legacy shopping." (No surprise there!) The White House has said that a presidential visit is possible before Mr Obama leaves office in 2017. Latin American allies have hailed thawing US-Cuba ties as transformative for Washington's role in the region. It is really about putting an end to the last lingering vestiges of the Cold War, and it ultimately elevates the level of the relations between the US and the entire region. Is it a good thing? I believe it's a step forward to heal relationships between the countries. Why would it be a bad deal?
  20. Something along the lines of women should dummy down to nab a husband.
  21. You are all for it? Make up your mind? You know nothing about me.
  22. Ok, so individuals fighting for equal rights for women are the cause of higher suicide rates among men? Is that what you are saying?
