The Dems broke from norms of adulthood 30 years ago and they never looked back. Their attacks on Bork, Kavanaugh and Thomas were the absolute worst of human behaviour. The Dems can't give anyone anything right now, but seeing as they already opined that maybe there need to be 6 more judges on the SC, what if the GOP wins the election and keep control of the senate? The SC could be 12-3 in favour of the GOP. How do you like them apples? The Dems are worthless scum.

The people under duress in a country are usually the ones suffering from things like genocide and enslavement. Not the ones inflicting those things on minorities. If we could go back in time to WWII and rescue some refugees from Germany, should we take German refugees or Jewish ones? Im asking for a Liberal friend, because he is retarded.

It was favouritism. That's what it was. Not just a bit of favouritism mind you, it was a lot of favouritism, to a lot of people, and it came at the cost of our safety. People have been assaulted and killed as a result of this mere "favouritism". That's why it's a real topic.

Doh!

Everything you say is just laced with CNN-level ignorance & idiocy. FYI Trump and the other pro-lifers don't have ulterior motives for stopping abortions. Trump isn't any more in favour of black abortions than white. The mother of American abortions, Margaret Sanger on the other hand, actually was. Hillary Clinton famously said of Margaret Sanger: "I admire Margaret Sanger enormously. Her courage, her tenacity, her vision". FFWD to 1:45 to hear Hillary gush about Margaret Sanger: https://247sports.com/college/west-virginia/Board/103782/Contents/Hillary-Clinton-admires-eugenist-Margaret-Sanger-71651706/ If you don't know who Margaret Sanger is, here's a description of her from a leftist source: https://www.usatoday.com/story/opinion/2020/07/23/racism-eugenics-margaret-sanger-deserves-no-honors-column/5480192002/ Sanger's own words, from the article above: This is literally the worst and most disgusting form of racism ever. That bitch wanted to kill black babies before they were even born, just because of her own racism, and somehow it's her 'vision' that Hillary admires. WTF? You really need a cite for this type of idiotic bullshit Argus. Once again, you're like Bill Buckner bragging about WS G7 lol.

The Dems are talking about the Constitution at the same time as they're discussing SCJs lol. This whole story is just dripping with irony.

I clicked on that link, thinking that there was some small fragment of a chance that it wouldn't be completely moronic, but it's from the CBC. I've got no excuse.

Name a really decent country for us csn. A place that you'd be proud to call home.

On Global today they mentioned that 4 yrs ago McConnell wouldn’t let Obama pick a SCJ in an election year. They apparently didn’t know that the Dems did it first. They need to hire you as a fact checker.

The fact that they did it isn't what's odd. What's odd is the fact that on March 15th people could fly into our country from covid hotspots by the tens of thousands, they didn't have to quarantine, they could ride our transit, swim in pools, watch movies in our theatres, eat at buffets, and our government was still telling us not to wear masks. Only 6 days later Canadians weren't even allowed to walk outside in a provincial park. How did we go from: "Covid is a joke, people who have it can fly here from other countries and do wherever they want" to "Healthy Canadians can't walk outside" in 6 days? It is a fact. Canadians are just monumentally stupid.

They don't want to know. They don't need the facts. They just need to control the narrative. That's why they exercise control over social media, that's why they invested $1.4B in media outlets that they like, that's why they only allow select sycophant media to follow the PM around, that's why Rebel Media gets thrown on the ground if they go within 100m of the dear leader, etc. This is an actual fascist country now. You know it's bad when our 'democracy' is being successfully trolled by the communist party of China's media: When the little potato said "The gov't can't interfere in the judicial process to intervene on behalf of Meng Wanzhou" all they had to say was "SNC" lol.

Really Argus? So what specific thing that the GOP did or what changes has Trump made, what things has Trump done that irk you so much? There's a laundry-list of things wrong with the Demonrats. They call for the harassment of government officials, they support BLM and Antifa, they support violent rioting/arson/looting and attacks on police, they support every voter-fraud-friendly reform known to man, they let Russians run rampant in Europe and did nothing, they blame terrorist attacks with vans on guns, they let Islamic State grow to the size of a large country and then pretended that they couldn't stop them for 5 years, they blame terrorist attacks with AK-47s on gun laws and AK-47s have always been illegal, they support blatant anti-Semitism and then when there's an attack on Jews they blame Trump, their nominee got caught cheating twice in the 2016 election and they act like Trump was the cheater, they are the biggest misogynist/hypocrites on the planet "all bitches want it from Bill Clinton", they lie about global warming, they lie about covid, they lied about Kavanaugh, they lied about russian collusion..... You want to talk about a bunch of sewer rats with absolutely no redeeming qualities it's the Dems. You've been drinking stupidity straight from CBC's firehose Argus.

I'm kind of shocked that they are talking about putting in a new SCJ myself, but in all fairness, the Demmies are talking about expanding the SC if they get elected which is even more bogus. Soon, every time the US has a new Prez with control of the Senate, they will just add more and more judges. 7, 21, 42, 84.......

https://globalnews.ca/news/3875716/syrian-refugees-gaps-screening-canada/ https://torontosun.com/opinion/columnists/malcolm-the-b-c-murder-and-trudeaus-rushed-refugee-vetting it took me two minutes to prove you're the one spreading misinformation. How can you possibly work in immigration services and not be aware of this? Ensuring the safety of Canadians is one of the main jobs of that department. We don't even bring people here from Australia without vetting them, and Australia doesn't have a terrorist population that's large enough to overwhelm their government.

Lol. If you recall, Russia was a minor player on the world stage before Obama got elected. They had gone from being a world power down to a country that couldn’t even keep their own shit together. Suddenly when Obama started dressing up as POTUS the Russians were bad-asses again, wandering around pissed drunk and stealing everybody’s lunch money. Obama just stood there with his pants down around his ankles, slack-jawed. He didn’t even have a half-hearted bloviating session. Putin laughed. Then he turned the Demmies into his useful idiots just by spending a couple hundred grand on FB ads. Dems have been dividing the country ever since. On the chess board of life, Putin has 16 queens and the Dems have a few broken pawn chains. He toys with them. He snaps his fingers and they dance like bear cubs. Your comment on China was extremely stupid Argus. You can trot out all the debunked accusations you want about Trump/Russia, but China actually does own the Biden family. All the Chinese have to do is threaten to show some video of what Hunter & Joe were promising the Chinese government back when Hunter was weaseling $1.5B out of the communist bank of China, and Joe is putty in Xi’s hand. Joe already lost a son. He can’t have Hunter rung up on treason charges. How hard do you think it is for a random westerner to just get the communist bank of China to do a $300K deal with them? What about a 1M deal? What about a $1.5B deal? ONE BILLION FIVE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS. That’s like a million dollar deal, 1,500 times. Do you think the Communist Bank of China just made some deal that was great for ‘Murica with no strings attached? How is a deal with China mutually beneficial with the Bidens or the US? Why did Joe lie about his knowledge of it if it was ok? It was not ok, and you know it’s not ok. It’s like the definition of what’s not ok for a politician and his family to be doing. Just like Hunter’s $30K/month job at Burisma was not ok. Joe knew it wasn’t ok and that’s why he lied about knowledge of Burisma as well. For you to bring up either topic is like Bill Buckner bragging about game seven of the World Series.

Ironically, the best reason that I've ever seen for a person to be racist is right in our Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

1) Really now. So it's ok to be racist, as long as there's somehow some profit involved? What if the gov't was to determine that there's actually more money to be made by investing that $93M in Korean Canadians, or MexiCanadians, or Jewish Canadians? Should we say screw the blacks and invest the money elsewhere? 2) FYI there wasn't somewhere else to invest the billions that went into the oil sands. In addition to being the largest export commodity we have in this country, oil is a strategic military resource, and almost makes us a useful contributor to NATO. Additionally, whatever oil we don't make we'd be importing from somewhere else (we actually are importing a massive amount of oil, because the Trudeau's have been pumping Saudi oil in their gas stations for three generations now), adding to our trade deficit. There's literally no comparison between tapping into our oil reserves and the racism that our government is engaging in. The connection is laughable.

1) Wrong again. Most of the kids who died, died from TB, and they weren't safe from it in their homes either. TB was killing everyone, but res schools were a ripe target for that kind of disease. 2) You're lying again. The difference between "their culture and our culture" wasn't "What name do we give our god and how do we pray" so this was nothing like what happens in the middle east. Do you understand that? This was the difference between a culture that was landing on the moon and one that wasn't smelting bronze yet. They didn't even have the fucking wheel. First nations children aren't apes. It wouldn't be ok to leave them in the stone age while the rest of the world moved into the space age. I'm not slighting them.... Just surviving 25,000 years on the frozen prairies was a cray achievement, surviving in the NWT is mind-boggling. But they just had to move on. No one ever said that being a luddite was man's highest calling. It's unfortunate that religion was involved in the way that it was, but FYI, from the early 1600s to the early 1900s religious schools were basically the only schools in the country. Go learn something dialamah. I'm not your tutor. Your blatant ignorance is only matched by your hideous racism.

No one will accept your sympathies as being sincere when they come hand-in-hand with your ignorant and idiotic assignment of evil intent. Bad things happened in res schools because when people are put in positions of absolute power, like they were in Res Schools, bad things are GOING to happen, always. (1) Not every residential school was run by rapists fwiw, but the impression given is that they all were (2) google "Stanford Prison Experiment" for a brief education on how bad things can go, and how quickly, when people are completely unsupervised in a position of power. Dialamah, if we were having this debate in 1955 would you honestly be arguing in favour of children growing up in igloos and teepees/longhouses, with no understanding of the english language? If you went to visit some first nations people living in the NWT on Jan 12th 1955 and saw how little children were living would that not melt your heart? Wouldn't you want to tell that child "there's a better life for you, with clean clothes and the possibility of being more than just a hunter/gatherer"? I bet you talk about 'the empowerment of women' a lot, and yet you're trying to act as though you'd let little girls be forced by their parents to live in the stone age in the NWT in 2020.... Come on dialamah, you just want to preach, you don't want to make sense. If you really gave a shit about first nations people you'd want to be involved in a healing process, not in a blaming process, and not in a contest to score political points for.... basically no one? Whose side do you think you are helping by casting a fake shadow on the people who set up the residential schools anyways? Are you just helping the people who are racist against whites? Honestly if that's not the case I don't even have a good guess at what side you're on. Obviously you're not just engaging in this debate out of a sense of altruism or you'd have a better understanding of why Res Schools were started, and you'd be focused more on healing than hate-mongering.

It's not fraud, the system is built that way so that they people in the 5 largest cities don't get to run the whole country. Regional economies are crucial to the overall success of the country and "the popular vote" isn't the perfect option. Literally 1% of the US land mass would run 100% of the country if it was done your way. There would be no such thing as 'campaigning in Wyoming'. Wyoming would STFU and do what they're told by NY, LA, Boston and a few other cities. Because of all the bitching I guess? Honestly we all KNOW how to have an election - you get people to show up at polling stations with ID and vote. The people who know that they can't win don't admit to that though. They say that system is somehow busted, and they have a series of voter-fraud-friendly options that they want to put in place.

You have a childish way of looking at things Marcus: "White people did this to the first nations and it was obviously because they're evil!!!!" Go try living in Alberta from Oct 1 to March 31 in a home with no insulation or central heating and then revisit this topic. I've used an outhouse in the prairie winter many times and I can tell you that you don't read magazines or scroll through FB there. Raise some kids in Canada, with no knowledge of the english language, and obviously no reading and writing skills, and tell them that they have no option to be a part of the modern economy, they'll be hunter gatherers for all their future generations - it's their only option. Would that be fair to your kids Marcus? Shouldn't they get the chance to be accountants, cab drivers, doctors, firemen, plumbers, etc, if they so choose? FYI native children weren't 'targeted' at all. What you think of as 'woke' terminology is actually just 'racist'. Residential schools were not devised as a form of torture. It was supposed to be for their own good. Do you know what the wealthiest people in Britain do? They put their kids in boarding schools, where a large percentage of them gain admission to Ox-'bridge. They don't put them there to be abused, or because they don't love them, they do it because it's what's best for them. Side note: it's also extremely expensive. I'll admit that residential schools were rife with serious problems, but they weren't built on bad intentions, they were just hounded by the failings of individual humans who were put into a position of having too much power over children. That's not a 'white' thing, it's all over the planet.

Why would I? They give a few billion and get 100X as much back. If they could invest money in Ontario and get it back many times over, should I object to that as well? Oil wasn't always at $50-100/bbl. When it was down around $17, quite a few years back, it almost cost that much to extract it in Alberta. Alberta isn't like some other places where you just put a pipe in the ground and pump oil out. It's an expensive, dangerous, highly-technical process.

1) Wrong. 2) First nations girls start off with actual, quantifiable monetary advantages over everyone else. 3) Children born with two married parents start off with a head start. That's an actual fact that far outweighs any other factor by a huge margin. 4) There are cultural differences which give people of certain cultures advantages over others. For example indo-Canadians are often comfortable living with large extended families. There are literally no white or black adults who live in the same house with multiple other adults from their extended family when they have a choice. I've been on this earth 52 years now and I have never seen it. That's almost normal for indo-Canadians. Sharing expenses like that is a huge advantage over other cultures where it's not even uncommon for a single mom to live on their own. There are several cultures in this country in which a large percentage of the parents consider a 'passing grade' for their children in school to be over 95%. Not even 5% of "white Canadian families" hold their children to that standard. There are actual reasons why black women or first nations women start off at a disadvantage compared to girls of other cultures, but the notion that 'police/white people are against them' is the cause is just pure, racist bullshit. The African American Family, from Wiki: This 'headstart' that you're talking about isn't the fault of white people Marcus. It's completely racist of you to blame the disadvantages of black girls on some imaginary thing that white people are doing to them. That's completely false.

Something big did happen before election day. It's called: "The easiest system ever created for voter fraud just went mainstream. It's called mail-in scamming." The Dems can wait 'til after the election to unravel their new plot. They only need 8 real voters and Biden will still 'win' the election. Honestly, there's a reason why the Dems are pushing for mail-in ballots so hard, and it's because they already have a scam working somewhere. Between all the different mail-in systems working around the country, the Dems found a successful way to run their scam.

It's just unbelievable what's going on now. "We can't keep people in jail, during this time of rioting and violence, because of C19. Large groups are banned. Except for the protestors who are also the rioters and looters. So when people are put in jail for rioting and looting, they get out of jail right away, to riot and loot some more. In a mostly peaceful way of course."
