  1. Yes, the only one that doesn't want to spread hate for everyone but the filthy rich. The one that wants to give tax breaks to the masses, instead of getting rid of tax to the multi-billionaires and foreign owned corporations.
  2. The a-team is self gratifying
  3. Trump is wearing a blue tie, what does that mean?
  4. Michael Chong is setting the agenda. He didn't even mention carbon tax in his reply to the crime question, but he got the rest speaking about it. WTG Michael.
  5. I will fix crime by giving everyone a can of mace.
  6. Why is Leitch wearing a lab coat to the debate?
  7. Not true, not even close, and a lot of buyers remorse to boot.
  8. You are on the right track, but even simpler than that.
  9. A new "69 story" tower opened in Vancouver today, but true to it's namesake it was a fake claim as it was only 63 stories tall. There is no 13'th floor, nor any floor ending in a '4'.

      I assume the ceilings are gilt with fake gold veneer and the elevator doesn't go all the way to the top.

  10. Steel. Slightly harder than construction grade steel, as it had about 2% carbon. Note that construction steel has more manganese which is even more flammable so the carbon content is irrelevant. You too can do this at home, chances are you already have everything you need.
  11. No matter how may billion times you repeat that, it doesn't make it true. You realize that only New Brunswick and the federal government translates its official record of the legislature (Hansard) into both official languages. There are countless other examples of lack of bilingualism in this country, but we keep hearing about this nebulous billions it costs to implement something that doesn't exist.
  12. I wonder where that plaque that Harry Truman had that said "The buck stops here"? Obviously it is not in the current Whitehouse.
  13. Careful, I said that before and my post got removed.
  14. If you think Elizabeth May shrieks, I can't wait to hear what you think of Kelly Leitch.
  15. I believe the statistic you are talking about is birth tourism. The number I saw was 700 in 2012. The other issue is there are many residents in Canada that are not Canadian citizens, and they are having children here. They may go on to later acquire Canadian citizenship, they may stay as permanent residents but never acquire citizenship, or they may leave (e.g. they were here for a short/medium term work assignment, or possibly here on a student visa). How many of those people are having children that automatically acquire Canadian citizenship? An interesting fact is that birthright citizenship (Jus soli) is fairly common in the Americas, but not so in Europe or Asia.
  16. Please be careful of the snowflakes, they could become President. ...too late
  17. I just burned/melted/vaporized some steel, and all it took was one wooden kitchen match. Blowing gently on this steel greatly intensified the rate of burn. Of course there are those who would try and convince you that couldn't even be done with tons and tons of burning jet fuel, yet I accomplished exactly that with a single wooden match. A wooden match burns at somewhere between 600°C and 800°C. How can I accomplish what others claim impossible? Perhaps they are not looking at all the variables.
  18. O'Leary chickens out of the next debate, but he does have a point. Having 14 contenders on stage at once does not make for a good debate, the format last week was better.
  19. Send the RCMP bill to the US for looking after Donald's two little kiddies.

      Send the FBI & police bill to Canada for looking after thousands of illegal Canadian overstays in the U.S.

  20. It has certainly been one of the conspiracy theorists suggestions, although there have been excellent technical analysis out there debunking that nonsense. Personally I think the many confirmations via radio, air phone, and cell phone that there were indeed hijackers on board the flights is enough to put that to rest.
  21. While I haven`t experienced the freezing problem you are talking about, I have noticed that this forum is very slow on some networks I use. Not slow enough to make it unusable, but significantly slower than I would expect relative to other websites I regularly access.
  22. Yes, Canadian drug companies are falling way behind in R&D investment. It is time to take away that intellectual property protections they want, although with NAFTA and now CETA that will be hard. I had a neighbor that was heavily involved in the industry several years ago and she said a lot of the focus was on clinical testing and not basic research, but even that was drying up quickly. The real leaders are Switzerland, Germany, Italy, the U.K, France and Sweden.
  23. My the entire future of the country based on a nebulous screening policy. It seems that hate is your only motivator. The economy, social issues, environment, Canadian Forces, trade, health care, etc. are all irrelevant, so long as you have some feel good policy about hating others.
  24. Lithium, gold, potash, iron ore, cobalt, copper.
