They also don't control the price of oil, now you reply with the 'eggs in one basket' fallacy, we can see how far we go round the mulberry bush from there.

60-70% of the country votes center left or left, yet it is somehow unlikely that the majority of those who attain a liberal arts degree in journalism aren't at least as much left as the country in general? Or that on an individual basis, if one of those 60-70% who are left leaning, and lets not kid ourselves, it's probably higher than 60-70, was to stray a little into personal bias and present the news from that biased pov, are they likely to suddenly lean right, or even more left? Of course this isnt even to mention that women now dominate on air and in journalism schools, and women tend to be more left leaning than men. So of course our media is left leaning, and its only getting worse, but if you are one of the believers you don't mind, they are parroting your world view after all, and left is easy, left is nice, and we wouldn't want to appear as anything but that in Canada.

Sorry, you used to have somewhat of a rational opinion on things, but not so much anymore. You're too busy trying to justify your vote and not nearly as concerned about the results so far, we told you so. O, and yes, as an ideology the left is far less consistent, and this is a left wing liberal party, so you choose, either they can't reconcile their beleifs with their actions, or they lied to get elected. yep. no better than Harper. Why don't you comment on that rationale, how logical is it to have a hate on for our previous 'dictator' PM, and in defense of the the new guy claim he is just the same as the last guy everyone was afraid of. Or don't bother, the explanation won't make any sense anyway, and that's the point.

Trudeau, same as Harper, someone so evil, so vile, and the best you can do is say Trudeau is no worse, cognitive dissonance is a disease of the left. You can see it in almost any thread, there is no logical consistency in almost anything they argue, the liberals got elected, they lied to do so, they always do, and the same people always beleive they did it for the right reasons.

"conservative regime" Credibility 0, you would be in the negatives if that was possible.

Yes....that's what they should do, and while they are at it they should tell the government to allow silk road to thrive since if it wasn't for the government 12 year old's wouldn't be trying to by heroin on the internet, surely.

So, people don't notice that we already curtail our freedoms with the net benefit to society in mind?

I doubt that things you imagine are very easily explained by anyone.

Perhaps 30 cents would be better, think of the green jobs that would be created.

Sure, keep flailing around, whatever you need to do to convince yourself, but if you can't hear and see how dull Trudeau is, you are either at best his equal, or blinded by your partisanship. There has not been another PM in my lifetime that appears so inadequate for the task and so beneath the office, perhaps the number of people of his type has increased to the point that fewer seem to notice how short he falls. Honestly compare him to his peers, if you can, but perhaps that is the problem, as your post is about as empty as his head, whatever Peter Kent had to say was just an excuse for you to deflect away from his failings by attacking those who notice them, a sad, small effort. Maybe Mr Butts is the real brains behind the curtain, he's just smart enough to be dangerous. Mulcair was leading the wrong party.

The dreamers serve at our convenience so long as living is relatively easy.

Im betting a lot of things look strange from your perspective, considering how ridiculous your opinions are.

Is every post you make just as unserious and disingenuous as this one? It sure seems like it, why do you even bother?

Perish the thought. I can only speak for me, but im happy i my kids didn't have to live in an area frequented by prostitutes and their customers. Im sure most of those people who don't have that option wished they did.

Well, it might be two faced, but it's hard to complain if it's the sensible thing to do, id rather they get it right (if it is, idk) than do what they have done with the jets just for the sake of being different than the last guy.

I made one of those deals with the pictures and string on the bulletin board that you see in crime movies, it really helped me see the light

Not nearly as wasteful as the empty rhetoric you so desperately cling to. hey did you hear, it's also his fault that we have oil, the world wants it, and companies were willing to invest into extracting it, i've heard that around here...somewhere.

So a prostituion law that almost no one cares about, C-51 that the liberals are probably not getting rid of, and a law that most people probably agree with, very, very evil.

In my opinion, you are wrong about everything, also, how exactly do you run a country when each new goverment repeals the legislation of the prior government? Also, which specific laws were "ideology-based stupid" and exactly what effects did they have that we can see actual evidence of, i mean real, not imagined things that actually happened as a result. Just about every act of the new government, in it's efforts to simply repeal everything the conservatives did, is far more ideologically driven than simply writing law from a marginally conservative perspective, it just so happens you agree with the ideology, are you reallu so arrogant to beleive that everything you believe in must be the correct thing?

Im from there, grew up there, went to university there, all of my family is still there, and while not everyone fits into the box that Argus is presenting, a great many do, there is a belief among them, one that has been fostered by handouts, that they shouldn't have to move away from 'home' or family, to find work, it is a belief that only exists because politicians have been buying their votes with handouts for a couple of generations now. Harper actually dared to speak about it, he dared to suggest that living your life in a place that can only be maintained through the forced generosity of others was wrong, and look what he got for it. So i dare say that I know at least as much and likely a lot more about how it works out there than you do, even the vast majority of people who went out west to work didn't actually move out there, and now that the jobs are gone they will stay back home doing what they always did before. One of my family members who does work in Alberta, still does, because he has an uncommon skill, but he has given up his job several times, in between bouts of home sickness (he's almost 40), he could easily have his own home by now, or have started his own business, but he like many out there have been trained to believe that they are special, and it's really not fair that maritimers should have to move away to work, of course the entire culture they live in was built by their ancestors who moved much farther and much more permanently than that to do so. There are some like me who don't want to live like that, there are many, many more who are fine with it. Of course they can only be fine with it because someone else, people like me who actually moved away to do better, are paying for it. They don't see it that way, EI is a right, not a privilege. Now tell me I have a 'disdain' for Atlantic Canada, take your cheap shot, i love it out there, it was my home, but I won't live a marginal life, nor make my children do the same just so i can be 'home'. I haven't seen some close family in years, compared to others who moved across an ocean and never saw family again it seems like a smaller sacrifice so that i can take care of my own. We can't all be on EI six months of the year, Harper made it less of a formality to get, and the entire region went after him for it.

It is the same thing over and over, people who show no willingness to actually debate things honestly, while trying to score points in a fashion that they think they can get away with and you dare not respond in kind, and certainly not in plain language, sure, you can play their little games but life is to short. And yes, the post you are referring to is a prime example of the MLW way, an obvious underhanded insult, and it's ignored. But then maybe no one reported it! Perhaps even having a mod read it isn't enough for them to have 'seen' it. The Mlwway™
