Well they have taken it upon themselves to be the improvers of mankind. Post national stuff arises from here. It may all seem good and well to you to be post-national state, but it might not be good for us since the rest of the world are all still national states. That's why I said radical experiment. I couldn't care less whether they are attended by conservatives or not. I am the only true liberal.

Not sure why there would be confusion. It's about the WEF meeting. You know, where Canada has sent our FM. She's on the Board of Trustees. Here is your linky-dink https://www.weforum.org/people/chrystia-freeland

The real problem is that Canada has signed onto this group's agenda, making us part of an experiment by radical "progressives" which ignorant Canadians know nothing about. We re-elected a total loser.

First a trickle....Now a flood
OftenWrong replied to Goddess's topic in Health, Science and Technology
Of course they're overwhelmed, and it's been explained to you before. Only a stupid ninny would keep repeating the same ridiculous accusations. You think anyone wants to see people suffer needlessly? And die? Why don't you people get a life. Fook off I say. -
First a trickle....Now a flood
OftenWrong replied to Goddess's topic in Health, Science and Technology
Yeah, you've missed the point entirely. The cart is before the horse. I've said none of those things. No one else here says them, as far as I see, except you and a few other bogus zealots. Funny not, because the numbers could be real. But I question- -Their accuracy -There is no comparator. Since never before have we monitored the number of people being infected with these test kits, we have no idea how prevalent flus are during a bad year. There could have been other years just as bad. People die, all the time. -
Ford government increasing private health care

Hint: Doug Ford has not dealt with anything much before. -

You can be delusional if you want, it's a free country. But people like that usually don't last long. A little old thing called reality eventually comes and slaps 'em up side of the head. In other words, you can goof around with fake science but eventually you might win the Darwin award. The truth will out itself in the long run. We can just go by the body count. -
More Race Baiting Fake News from CBC and Desmond Brown
OftenWrong replied to Bill67's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
It's a complex issue. I remember one Toronto councillor taking flack some years ago when she said "80% of the crimes are being done by 20% of the population." This roughly equates to the figure estimated by the OP (10% of the population causing 50% of the crimes). But statistics can be insidious liars if we try to draw a conclusion. For, looking deeper we find it is not the 20% of the population causing crimes at all, but actually a smaller percentage that often do repeat crimes. Therefore "Blacks" in the statistic is a misnomer. I believe poverty is a better discriminator, as a baseline for where these 80% of crimes are coming from. There you may see some whites in that group, too. And the occasional "other" visible minority, the brown and the yellow man. .... Article sums it up quite nicely. https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/goldstein-policing-report-exposes-flawed-logic-of-race-crime-statistics- 46 replies

Do you believe that Jesus really existed ?
OftenWrong replied to Jean-Kevin's topic in Religion & Politics
I wonder though, who Jesus would have voted for. -
You people are looking at this from a geo-political perspective, which is at the top level and most obvious. Yes, we all know about those things. What I'm suggesting is from a very personal individual perspective, especially for people who are raising families, they of course just want the war to end. It may not matter what flag is flying over their parliament, to them it's an abstract concept. They need safety and food, basic necessities. I bet many of them are willing to even learn Russian... But not die for some ideal, that is largely important to whom? I told you whom. More than the Ukraine. More than their own interests, force-feeding them on war because it benefits the great powers. Is it right for other nations to involve themselves in such as way as to keep elevating the conflict, or should they be only involved in doing the opposite? That is, f*ckin de-escalation.

I concur with this attitude, in principle. We don't need rules, or moderation because we are intelligent adults. But that is just you and me. Human beings on average are too stupid to be reliable in any way. So what I said earlier. We need a policeman, and to be routinely culled.

Not overtly, but it benefits the US. Classic superpower war by proxy. They can keep the war going for years.
-
Is it really? I already explained why I think it's different this time. Kinda like the US taking a back seat during WWII, but happy to provide enough resources to keep the fighting going.

My message about Covid measures, masks, the impact it will have etc. has been consistent from the day it began. Questionable decisions and mistakes have been made, and in some cases we should have known better. The big respiratory outbreaks that occurred in Canada and worldwide is a clue to how its been wrongly handled. Thankfully those outbreaks have started to subside. I hope everyone takes note. I have no answer as to why we took these steps. The most baffling is the shutdown of essential diagnostic services, creating a backlog of undiagnosed cancer patients and thus, death.

Much of this is off topic. Prove I've only lived here my entire life. My message is primarily to protect Canada from descending into Russia. Or the Ukraine, or China. Or America for that matter. Ukraine existed under USSR for a long time, and things were peaceful. If I lived there I might prefer that time to raise my family, better than what we have now. That could be debatable, but the constant influx of cash and weaponry certainly ensures a prolonged war.
