  1. Says nothing about Carbs or refined sugars. They're taxing all forms of proteins. It'll end up just being a tax on the poor. Lean proteins are more expensive. I bet they won't lower the price of healthier foods. Totally wrong-head approach if you ask me. Won't ever happen in North American, I don't think.
  2. I'm so glad that seat count didn't hit 54. I couldn't bare to see Daddy Dalton have another 4 years of unfettered power. At least now he sort of has to listen other people and can't just lie without accountability. If Hudak wants to win he needs to move to the right.
  3. IKYABWAI! BTW if I was Bill Blair, I'd probably quit. I disagree with how he's being treated, it's not his fault his departments budget is 85% salary and bennies.
  4. Didn't take long http://static.fjcdn.com/pictures/Steve+Jobs+casket+Idk+if+someones+already+posted+this+or_ae822e_2700224.jpg
  5. I use both. I own a PC at home and work on a mac everyday. Mac's are very user friendly but the price doesn't justify the ease of use and the awesome OS. People who think Apple's are the greatest thing ever just drink the koolaid. I'm looking at getting a new puter to do Graphic arts at home. I just looked in the Staples flyer. They're selling an All-in-One Acer (similar to an iMac) with 6 gb of Ram and a Tb of HD space. A base model iMac with 4 gb and a half a T of HD space costs upwards of $1,500. I'm sorry but re-sale quality doesn't make up that difference in price. I give mac it's due, but these people that think anything that isn't mac is crap are tiresome.
  6. Hank Williams Jr. makes an unfortunate comparison to Obama and Hitler and his long time jingle for Monday Night Football is immediately yanked. How many times has the previous president been compared to Hitler?
  7. And McGuinty's word is about as good as what? Bre-Ex Stock?
  8. I would think a Coalition would be a real possibility. Say Hudak wins a minority what would stop McLiar from forming a coalition with the NDP? It's happened before.
  9. So they want to try this in Toronto. Who wants to bet that CUPE is going to lead the rallying cry for Occupy Bay Street? Which is hilarious that public service unions who are among the more privileged people in this country would protest. The people who really should protest are too busy working. I understand why they're doing it in the US where poverty and unemployment are far more systematic as well as the fact that the Super Rich have far more influence. Not so much here.
  10. Sorry, lost in translation. Saying "This" meant to indicate I agree with your post.
  11. This You telling me a degree in Art History or Communications makes one somehow a better contributor to society than a construction worker, welder or even an electrician?
  12. Being a Kittens ERRRR Lions fan has clearly made you very sensitive.
  13. You're assuming Ontario voters are rational people. The polls would indicate otherwise.
  14. Didn't stop them from signing that idiotic Samsung Deal
  15. I don't hear anyone defending Dalton McLyingPoopface. All I hear is that Hudak will be worse and stupidness like that. He's Mike Harris 2.0
  16. And vegans are bullshit.
  17. I think it's Dougie that's the veggietarian.
  18. Well the ban solves two problems posed by the burka. 1) Women who refuse to show their faces in order to reveal their identity. 2) Also if they are banned then perhaps it's less likely for a women to be a victim of an honour killing for not wearing it.
  19. I seriously doubt that a woman wearing a burka is doing so because they wish to. This is the Burka, not a Hijab or a Turban. Also The Burka has little to do with Islam, It's a cultural symbol of domination over women.
  20. Clearly to deny that employees at malls, government establishments etc are told to say "Happy Holidays" and not "Merry Christmas" is denying the obvious. It does happen. BTW to respond BD's remark earlier about religious vacations, there's a difference. If a Muslim wants to take Eid off that's fine. This memo is implying that everyone must change their work habits in order not to offend a Muslim. BTW Muslims have been working along side Christians and Jews in the country for awhile now. This is the first we've heard about these kind accommodations being offered. I doubt they are needed. As a side note, I wonder what people would say about what's happening in France right now, a country that has the largest percentage of Muslims in Europe. They are planning to bad public prayer because Muslims are shutting public streets down by doing mass public prayers. Is that a reasonable response by the government of France? They've already banned the Burka a move I 100% support.
  21. Some clarifications should be given. I'm sure government employees have 2 breaks and a lunch break the entire day. They should be able to do their prayer at these times and before and after work. If they are being given additional time off for this, I'm against it because it is pandering to Muslims. I'm also against allowing for cigarettes breaks every hour, on the hour,which I'm willing to guess, government employees get, just to be consistent. Then again I'm not a fan of government employees in general.
  22. This is similar to the burka issue and women that refuse to show themselves even when in court. How many religious considerations can be made. At what point is Sharia Law the next logical step?
  23. Doesn't make it right though does it?
