You're dealing the sandbox insults like a champ today. So, pray tell, what's the worst thing that Trump did to America since being POTUS? How does he stack up to Obama in your world? No more sandbox insults or empty blanket statements this time, just some facts if you could. That would be awesome. It's hard for me to bitch-slap baseless allegations the same way I can to CNN-toady lies.

A cult like the one where you watch riots, beatings, looting, arson and murder and call it peaceful protests? And where your handlers tell you the exact same lie over and over again for 3 years and then at the end, when you finally find out that they lied to you the whole time, you just dive right into their next bullshit story? A cult where your leaders are successfully sued for defamation of character by a high school kid? Nope. I'm not in the world's biggest, most idiotic cult. I'm not in a cult at all. When questioned, I can always answer directly and truthfully. What about you Argus? Still proud to call yourself a CNN toady?

He gets asked a handful of questions per week now, exclusively from friendly faces who no doubt warn him what they're going to ask him ahead of time, and he has to answer with things like "C'mon man! It's common knowledge that everything I did in Ukraine was legit, and that I didn't even know that Hunter had that job at Burisma when I fired the prosecutor."

That's a farcical, bullshit statement Argus. 1) If you want to talk about politicians enriching their own families the conversation starts with Biden and Trudeau, period. The direct path from government power &/or money directly to vastly increasing their family's fortunes is completely out in the open now. 2) If you're not aware of all the things that Trump actually accomplished for Americans by now, that's pathetic, and it's just a matter of intentional ignorance. The list of his accomplishments has been posted here before, there's no need for me to post it here again.

If by 'things' you mean: intentionally bring as much covid into the country as possible, rack up catastrophic debt and use the Bank of Canada like a personal chequing account, you'd be correct.

What a coincidence. 50% of the population drinks stupidity from a firehose when they watch CTV and CNN.

I'm not the one who started placing dollar values on human lives just to make Trudeau's deficit look good, I'm not really in the business of estimating the value of human lives.

This topic is just the Liberals trying to draw attention away from their laundry list of scandals. “WE’RE THE MOUSE THAT ROARED!!!!” Yeah ok, put a tariff on aluminum but don’t bother to stop our PM from treating the Bank of Canada like his personal chequing account, and don’t bother to stop terrorists from coming here to commit attacks, recruit, and retire with a pension. Chrystia Freeland can go to hell.

A Dodge Ram is worth $60k. Or at least that’s what it would take for you to drive off the lot with a new one. A rusty 1985 Dodge Ram that burns oil and needs a transmission has no value outside of a salvage yard. Likewise, an 85 yr old with two or more co-morbidities isn’t worth as much as a newborn, or especially an 18 year old immigrating to the country with valuable job skills. Instead of plus $10M, the old, sick people are actually a drain on the economy from the POV of a PM, or a Minister of Health/Finance. They use the medical system more than other Canadians and they’re usually getting pensions, plus no one in that demographic contributes to the economy anymore. Is that why our government had the policies of “Leave the flights from China open and don’t wear masks”? I’ve read that 81% of our deaths here were care-home residents. I have no way of knowing if that’s true so I won’t even bother posting a link, but the policies that Trudeau espoused from Jan 31 - March 16th certainly point to him not valuing Canadians’ lives at all.

Whether or not Chauvin went too far is a matter for the courts. The video conclusively proves that Floyd's death wasn't an example of police brutalizing a guy who didn't even need to end up on the pavement in the first place. They did everything right to give FG a chance to let hi arrest be conducted peacefully. George earned the first 5 -6 minutes on the ground. The other 3 cops are in the clear.

It looked that way until we learned that the police had no reason to believe Floyd when he said "I can't breathe", because he said the same thing when he was merely inside of a car. Some people 'can't breathe' with a mask on, some people 'can't breathe' when they're inside a car... somehow 2020 became the year of pretending to not know how to breathe.

Exactly.

I did two searches on Google: "leaked bodycam footage of George Floyd CTV news" and "bodycam footage of George Floyd CTV news" and neither one found CTV showing or talking about the recently-released bodycam footage. I did the second search for CBC as well, crickets. The fact that CBC and CTV aren't showing it, just because it doesn't fit their narrative, is the final bit of proof needed to conclude that CBC & CTV are pure crap.

The We scandal is a dead story now. If you look on CTV, our 6,000 covid cases still dominate the page and there's not a single mention of We.

I used to wear the cartridges too, I still have the masks, and I still have half-a dozen N95 cloth masks here too. I don't think they last forever though, mine are probably expired. I've worn masks for long days doing reno work and I've never felt faint, but It always does feel great to take it off and get a few breaths of fresh air. The main difference between wearing them at work or wearing them for covid is that when you're doing it for the actual health benefits, you tough it out. When you're doing it to contribute to C19 fear-mongering it's not. The time when masks needed to worn came and went in February. Now we know that Covid isn't a real threat to 99% of the population. Worldometer says that we have 6,000 covid cases in the whole country now. I won't be wearing a mask anytime soon.

Lol. He's the only person in the US that had covid but died of something else.

Even with the benefit of hindsight you won't admit to what everyone else has already admitted to. LMAO. Are you one of the people who walks around with BLM signs, and blocks trains? If you lived in the States would you be joining the looters?

The purposeful buriers are the same people who tried to act like Rayshard Brooks was just a cool, fun-lovin', family-man that took a nap in his car and then got shot by racist white pigs for no good reason. The same people who acted like they just KNEW that Trump colluded with Russia for almost 3 years when they KNEW for most of that time that he did not. The same people who act like Trump did a quid pro quo in Ukraine and Joe/Hunter Biden's actions in China and Ukraine were obviously above reproach. The same people that acted like a snot-faced woman from Berkeley just had to be believed even though she was caught on some lies and made a ridiculously vague accusation. The same people who act like SNC was no big deal, firing Raybould was no big deal, blackface was no big deal, the hijab hoax was no big deal, the We scandal was just a minor misunderstanding, but Duffygate was an apocalyptic scandal. The ones who act like the riots were mostly peaceful, cops are mostly racist, defunding cops will make society better, the NS shooting had something to do with gun control laws, the Danforth shooter was just an incel, the attack in Pennsylvania were inspired by Trump's blatant anti-Semitism, , Smollett was no big deal, Michelle Obama's hate speech is inspiring greatness in grads, the Pulse Nightclub shooter wasn't an islamic terrorist, brining in islamic state terrorists/war criminals and letting them go free while re-branding them as 'fighters' was a great idea, etc, etc, etc. No one has to tell the alt-left dolts at CTV and CBC to bury anything, they hire alt-left-brainwashed muppets with no compunctions about lying and they spend more time polishing the spin than searching for the truth. Honestly they spend more time talking about fake Trump scandals than they do covering up actual Trudeau scandals. When a news item makes the rounds on CTV, do you ever worry that they'll present it accurately if in so doing they'll discredit their alt-left narrative? Gimme a break. The only time leftists are ever honest is when the mob is at their own door. The epitome of leftism is the ESPN reporter, Chris Palmer, tweeted about the riots. When a low-income housing complex was in flames he tweeted: "Burn that shit down. Burn it all down." Then when the rioters were in his neighbourhood he called the cops [leftist hypocrisy] and tweeted: "Get these animals TF out of my neighbourhood. Go back to where you live". and then "Tear up your own shit. Don't come to where we live at and tear our neighborhood up. We care about our community. If you don't care about yours I don't give a shit." Soak it up eyeball. You've been on the wrong side of history regarding all of those issues, in grandly pathetic fashion.

FYI fitting a narrative isn't what the courts are interested in eyeball, courts need facts. Open-minded people want the same thing. FWIW, re: the scared part, Floyd tested positive for Fentanyl and for covid, two things which both cause shortness of breath, so it's possible that he actually was having trouble breathing when he was just handcuffed and put in the back of the car. I doubt that we'll ever know, and even if we do 'know' 50% of Americans will doubt the facts that come out anyways.

At the beginning of the outbreak, when covid was possibly a dangerous pandemic, it was extremely important to take serious common-sense precautions like blocking travel from infected populations & wearing masks. We did absolutely nothing for almost 2 months, and we got lucky. Covid isn't the kind of thing that you have to shut a country down over. Sooo...C19 is here, we know how generally-mild it is, the time for widespread & drastic action has passed. The most important thing to do now is remember how important PPE is for the future, and that blocking travel from infected areas isn't racist.

This is just disingenuous and accusatory/idiotic blather. The people that you are talking about are at risk every year from the flu, common low-level infections, or falling on ice, etc. Do you think that we can take the time to bubble-wrap our entire society to protect those people? If we burst our wallets doing that, then how can we afford to save the lives of people who get hit by cars, or get other diseases which are normally curable? There are 38M people in this country, it's impossible to make it so that everyone lives to 83. We already have universal health care here and no one is bemoaning the extra care that some people need for their entire lives. Don't act like we're not doing enough. Destroying the economy makes it so that we have no money to save anyone from anything. Wearing a mask on public transit or on an airplane is sensible but for life in general it is not. Some people need to take extra precautions and they already know that. I get that you haven't been told to care about mental health by CNN or CTV, so you don't, but you have no clue what other people actually care about, you can only guess. Considering how wildly inaccurate all of your other comments are your guesses probably aren't worth hearing. Feel free to stick to the facts of the matter. Facts are important and useful. Mental health issues are statistically proven to rise with jobless/poverty rates. That's a fact. I don't think we need to get into a discussion about the various ways in which mental health affects children or our society in general, but just understand that at some point a line is crossed where the damage done by lockdowns & covapidity vastly outweighs the benefits of overzealous actions. Blocking travel from China made sense. Blocking access to public parks and shutting down the economy does not make sense.

Morbidly obese, very elderly, people with respiratory diseases (CF, emphysema, heavy smokers, mesothelioma,....). Some of those people a lot more than others, but I think you must know the list. Some people need to take special precautions every flu season, and especially now.

I watched Global today :barf and they didn't mention it either.

Ellison unilaterally decided the fate of that video. That video had the power to shed a lot of much-needed light on a situation that was deadly, mainly because of the badly-skewed and misleading video that was already out in public. The BLMers who want to put an end to police video, just because it exposes their racist deception, all saluted the fact that Ellison kept the truth from America. Ellison is scum.

Nope. Read Ellison's own words Canucklehead. He spoke in plain English. If you don't understand what those words mean then it's really weird that you'd spend time in an online forum that has almost no pictures or video.
