  1. Maple MAGA on Friday: Carney is ruining Canada. This will hurt Canadian jobs!!!! There's no reason to be this combative over a new tax! Maple MAGA on Sunday: WEAK!!!! What about elbows up Carney? He folded like a cheap tent!
  2. Iran's nuclear program likely isn't. The only way to surely end it is with war.
  3. But the solution is the same. War. Strikes like this aren't going to stop Iran, they're only going to encourage them. The only way to ensure they don't get Nukes is with boots on the ground.
  4. This is not a partisan opinion. There's a debate going on about what damage was caused. https://www.coastreporter.net/politics/trump-grapples-for-upper-hand-in-debate-over-damage-caused-by-us-strikes-on-iran-10860583 Sure. Again back to the 2003 scenario where you're being pulled into a quagmire that only leads to war.
  5. Maybe that's what they want you to think. The truth is, we don't know. Any definitive stance without solid evidence is only conjecture. Apparently both Iran and Israel were running low on missiles and didn't have the resources to continue on like that. Israel was paying a cost for this war too.
  6. Has it? There's no independent verification. Because Trump can't keep his mouth and/or social media feed shut, I'm sure Iran made sure to move important items away from these sites that Israel had no ability to attack effectively. Apparently intel reports say that this only delayed their program. Trump obviously creates his own reality so he's fine with this being a huge success and moving on. But Iran can now keep making those Nukes in secret.
  7. This sounds a lot like the WMD debate in 2003. The only way you'll ensure Iran can't make a nuke is to start a real war, not a covert B2 strike.
  8. I would expect them to be more insular. Hope everyone forgets about them, so they can achieve their goal. Does saying "Death to Israel" warrant a war? And some would say Zionism is religious zealotry as well.
  9. The entire Middleeast hates the idea of Israel. And that's likely only escalated seeing what they've done to civilians in Gaza. It doesn't mean that Iran would nuke Israel. But it sure would mean that Israel would think twice about attacking Iran.
  10. MAD is a thing. North Korea isn't nuking anyone. The one thing that's clear is that not having a nuke seems to make it more likely for the likes of the West to continue to bomb and/or invade them to prevent them from making a nuke. All these last two weeks have done is ensure Iran will be less transparent about their nuclear power.
  11. Yes, because we all know bombing a country is the best way to win hearts and minds. Iran's best course of action would be to develop nuclear weapons. North Korea has them and every leaves them alone. Trump denying his own intelligence reports is hilarious. This strike literally was just for show. Iran can continue to develop nuclear weapons without any oversight now. The word of Trump means nothing.
  12. I find having lower daycare costs and an extra few hundred dollars a month for my kids quite helpful. I guess it's just a perspective.
  13. Subsidized daycare Legalized MJ Increasing the Childcare Benefit Securing a trade deal with the US the first time I suspect the OP poster is AI considering he's taking about Kamala being elected POTUS.
  14. Lying in the coffin, just like Brian Wilson did. Too soon? 

  15. Do you not read? They're being detained while trying to follow the rules for being in the country legally.
  16. He campaigned on removing violent criminals, not this. That was the whole messaging around this gulag in El Salvador. Sperm-head Stephen Miller is moving to deport as many people as possible. He set a goal of 3,000 arrests a day. The ugly truth about the US, and Canada's economy for that matter, is its fueled by cheap immigrant labour. Who's going to make all these iPhones and clothing items Trump is trying to onshore? It won't be whitey with a liberal arts degree. This will backfire if the list of innocent lives destroyed grows. There are plenty of undocumented immigrants in Texas. What happens when they raid a Home Depot in Texas, will he send the marines to a Red State?
  17. That includes people who came here as children and people getting detained attending meetings so they can try to stay in the country legally. As this continues there'll be more innocent people swept up in storm to meet some arbitrary quota.
  18. I mean violent criminals, gang members and such. And these ICE agents seem to be rounded people up and asking questions later. They're breeding a culture of fear.
  19. Right out of the fascism playbook. I'm sure the ICE agents weren't trying to incite violence themselves.
  20. The stated goal is to deport 1 million people this year. It's quickly moved away from simply deporting criminals. Stephen Miller was angry that those goal aren't being met, he told ICE agents to go to Home Depot to try and snag day labourers. This is not about safety, it's about reaching a quota. So they're snatching people off the street and figuring it out later. Last week there was a report of ICE detaining a high school student that came to the country when he was 5 while he was going to a Volleyball practice. This is inhumane. If Canada was doing this, I'd be appalled. It's certainly a big reason why tourism to the US is down, and why I'm not going to be eager to give them my tourism dollars anytime soon. The US is going down a very dark path.
  21. You know you've won an argument when someone claims sealioning. The goal here has always been to prompt a violent response. ICE has been picking up kids going to school, separating families, arresting people on their way to immigration hearings. All the while they're wearing masks to hide their identity. When people stand up, Trump can set the precedent that he can send the troops in the incite more violence. This all is straight out of the fascist playbook. America is quickly losing any reputation of actually being a free country. "Conservatives" were appalled when law enforcement was carrying out federal orders in Ottawa during the convoy. They were allowed to protest for 3 freakin' weeks and wouldn't leave.
