I guess he is if you look at it from the point of view that he is probably the biggest threat to the US and now your new presi. is almost in bed with him. Would you trust Putin? Or have you decided you like communism?

Trudeau probably doesn't like Putin (and therefore Assad) nearly as much as Trump does so he got out of the swamp.

Porcupine!..did I ever tell you about my time living (and driving) around Newfoundland?

Russia is not fighting ISIS anywhere near as much as they are fighting to keep Assad in power. And of course Trump has to kiss Putin's arse because he helped get him elected after all.

Trump hasn't done anything yet, so all we have to go on is what he says. And if he does what he says, he ain't gonna make America anything but a joke.

As much as I fear the narrow minded thinking of xenophobes. We have all seen how horrible that can turn out. Details have already been covered so I won't remind you.

Yet again a non sequitur.

And so have I, even within a single country, namely Afghanistan. Go to Kabul and women are walking down the street bare faced on their way from their tenure as a university professor. Move a hundred miles away and you will see veiled women. Go for the short flight to Dubai for a night and you will be sitting at teh bar chatting with locals, both sexes, sipping a glass of wine. And some of the nicest hotels I have ever seen. I doubt Argus has travelled much or his mind might be not quite so closed. And I'm letting him off easy with that description.

Once again I didn't weasel out of anything. I called you on your attempt to tar Syrian refugees and the KKK with the same brush. We have a lot of the former already in this country and I haven't heard of them nailing any gays or Jews to a cross and burning it down.

Nope. I answered the question by pointing out you were trying to conflate the KKK with Syrian refugees, so the question was faulty to begin with. You just didn't like being refuted.

I can certainly determine the ever more xenophobic content of his posts and it never seems to change and I disagree with that approach, so I point it out. It tends to worry me much more than does the Syrian refugee situation in Canada. Once upon a time it was the Chinese that were going to wreak havoc on this country. Then it was the Indians. Now it's the Syrians. Who next? The moral panic was proven to unfounded then and I am confident it will be this time as well.

Apparently you are.

No idea. I suspect you are a lot more qualified to answer that.

If you have to fly a patient from Inuvik to say Edmonton for care they can't get at home, that adds a lot of cost. And I don't think doctors are lining up to go live and work in Inuvik.

I guess they sent along the escort in case that finicky engine let go.

I suspect you are right. While he was rather conciliatory during his final speech on his "thank you" tour in Mobil, but I think most of us expect he will soon return to his buffoonery and bombast. Apparently he also confirmed his idiotic plan to build the wall during the same speech.

Apparently there was some problem with the canopy that caused injury to the pilot and a ground crew. Navy not releasing details as yet.

Is that an attempt at humor?

I got to try out the RV7 at the factory in Oregon. Had my own little airshow.

Well hopefully they get back to the table and not let that happen. I do tend to agree with the feds that it shouldn't only focus on dollars but also on finding efficiencys.

I guess if I cut your allowance in half you'd get it.

And where is the so called dishonesty?

And even if we maintained a zero population growth a high percentage of those already here are old and getting older, so the cut will be detrimental to their needs.

Trump doesn't have time for "intelligence" briefings, (and we all know he could use some of that_ so I doubt he reads much beyond comic strips.

Read your own post, especially the beginning.
