  1. This article seems to show that social conservatives are the real defenders of Canadian democracy while centre conservatives, liberals, and the left in conspiracy with mainstream media have failed Canadian democracy. The Cultural Action Party (CAP) is one of the voices of social conservatives. Also read the articles on the right side of the CAP webpage called Recent Posts. Also read this article: Trudeau Re-Designing Canada Into 3rd World Dominant Dictatorship (capforcanada.com) "For Cultural Action Party of Canada, it’s nothing less than a social revolution on a scale of historical transition of nations from democracy to dictatorship. For mainstream media in our country, it is as natural as winter snow in Yellowknife. We speak of what is so obviously the current state of Canadian society."
  2. Perhaps. But don't forget the Liberals have been in control for most of Canada's history and it was PM Pierre Trudeau that was infatuated with China and other Communist countries. Turned out that PM Justin Trudeau was also infatuated with Communist Cuba and China. So the Trudeaus have a dark record of love of Communist dictatorships and Fidel Castro. The Bible says to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but this is exactly what the Trudeaus and liberals did. Are you being obtuse? "If you want to learn something even more bizarre, take a look via Google to reports about PM Trudeau's brother, Alexandre, who, according to the report in this link, has worked for the Iranian government. Most Canadians don't know anything about him. Many of us remember the WE charity scandal. But there is still a lot more things to uncover. "Welcome to the hidden world of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s brother, Alexandre “Sascha” Trudeau. Why hidden? Because if the general Canadian population understood brother “Sascha” political leanings, it would damage Justin’s reputation beyond what it is today." Buried: Justin Trudeau's Brother Alexandre Worked For IRANIAN Government (capforcanada.com) Since he is the PM's brother of course this is of interest to Canadians. Who knows, maybe he will run to become PM one day under the Trudeau banner.
  3. You are obviously just being contrary as you usually are. The 37 million Canadians who are not the political leaders have no control over the health care system. It is controlled by the provincial governments, led by Premiers and the federal government led by Trudeau. Since it is an emergency, they should not be jetting off for a vacation. That is a no-brainer. The federal government is a partner in health care funding and they have reduced their contribution significantly over the years to where it is now only 22%. There is a vaccum in leadership by the federal government. Trudeau is not fit for the job and should leave.
  4. Yes, we need to start reducing our dealings with China. It is going to be tough because the government, which has been mainly liberals, have deceived and led Canadians down the China road for decades and deceived us into thinking they were doing the right thing. China is Canada's second largest trading partner. It was known long ago that China was a human rights denier on a massive scale. Communist ideology simply trumps individual rights in China. Why would the liberals and left ignore that fact and cozy up to China? Money I guess. That is why the bible says the love of money is the root of evil.
  5. The government (PM and cabinet) are the ones that have been entrusted and highly paid by the people of Canada to take care of the health care system which is failing. So if they take off on holidays, they are not doing their job because they are the only ones that are able to fix the failing health care system. Yes, there are other needs, but health care for many people is a life and death issue and thousands could be dying because their cancer or heart issues are not being dealt with on time. So the health care issue is top priority and for Trudeau to take off on a trip to Jamaica or wherever he went is very disappointing. This attitude has serious consequences for thousands of Canadians who are waiting many hours in emergency rooms and awaiting essential medical treatments. This is not rocket science, but very simple to understand for most people.
  6. I heard Trudeau is off for a Christmas season vacation in the Caribbean. Hope it is a good holiday. In the meantime, the health care system is getting worse, nurses and doctors are struggling in hospitals and emergency rooms. One ER now on the CBC news is down to 50% of the staff they need. This is a crisis. How can politicians just take off on vacation and relax on Christmas holidays while the health care system is in a crisis. I just don't get it.

  8. Politics and biblical beliefs cannot be separated and locked into separate categories or rooms. They are inter-related. quote Two: God is calling us to participate in politics I have been privileged over the years to know several Christians in political leadership, both as their pastor and as their friend. One of the frequent concerns I have heard them express is the common misperception that Christians have done all they need to do if they elect Christians to office. The fact is, voting is vital, but it is just the beginning of our biblical responsibility with regard to politics. It is true that “our citizenship is in heaven” (Philippians 3:20), but it is also true that we are to be good stewards of our time on earth. The Lord told his exiled people in Babylon: Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not decrease. But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare (Jeremiah 29:5–7). As the “salt of the earth” and the “light of the world” (Matthew 5:13–14), the flourishing of our world is, in part, our responsibility. If I have the only light in a dark room, its darkness is my fault. Caring for our culture and engaging in its political processes is part of good citizenship for God’s people. unquote What does the Bible say about politics? - Denison Forum Bible believers are the "salt of the earth". Matthew 5:13 KJV There, that wasn't too big.
  9. I know its tough to hear that a lot of politics is godless atheism and immorality and should be exposed for what it is. I prefer to talk about politics in the light of the Bible. Light exposes darkness.
  10. It is peculiar that you would get choked by the odd comment I make related to God and the Bible and say it is thread Hi-jack, when in fact there are countless meaningless banter back and forth by other people that have nothing to do with liberal-rumours whatever that is supposed to mean. You said nothing to them. I think you are really revealing your bigotry against religion, the Bible, Christianity. You simply don't want to hear any of it regardless of the fact what I am saying is related to politics and politicians. The world is full of bigots that want to hear nothing about the Bible. That is just part of all the hate that is going around today. Its kind of like a library in the U.S. that tried to ban a Christmas tree but allowed pride events, and other religion's material. Until a public outcry caused them to reconsider their anti-Christian bias and back down and allow a Christmas tree. That is the times we are living in.
  11. 3 Reasons People Don’t Like the Bible (lifehopeandtruth.com)
  12. Of course my pointing out the depravity of mankind is Germaine to the topic. The topic is this government and speculation about whether they are going to continue. In addition my post was a reply to Contrarian who responded to a previous post about the depravity and corruption of man, which is especially an issue when electing the government. The government is corrupt as I pointed out. People who vote for such politicians need to give their head a shake, including yourself. Why do you not want to hear about the depravity of elected representatives? I assume you are ok with what is going on. People who do not believe in the higher principles of the Bible are opposing God and should not be leading anybody. Why vote for them?
  13. Democracy is not the be all and end all of everything. It gave many immoral laws and policies. However it is a reflection of the decadence of society in general. "1Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? 2The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, 3Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. 4He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision." Psalm 2:1-4 KJV The difficulty is how does one be respect those in authority, which we are called to do, while at the same time disagreeing with ungodly laws and policies that they advance? I think of many things such as questionable ethics, abortion on demand, medical assistance in dying, and other things. This would seem to be a difficult problem for a Bible believer. I think the answer is in Romans ch13. “Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God.” Romans 13:1 KJV We are required to be subject, be respectful, and follow the laws. That does not mean we have to agree with everything.
  14. The fall of man is a central part of orthodox Christianity and is referred to in many places in the New Testament. The truth of the doctrine is evident from the way mankind is. Other religions do not believe in it at all or do not believe the fall of man has corrupted the whole human race and that one needs a Savior to be redeemed. The best human being is still born with a corrupt, fallen nature according to the Bible and his best efforts and behavior will not save him. Everyone still needs to be redeemed. "The Fall of Man explains why sin and misery exist in the world today. Every act of violence, every illness, every tragedy that happens can be traced back to that fateful encounter between the first human beings and Satan. Scripture Reference Genesis 3; Romans 5:12-21; 1 Corinthians 15:21-22, 45-47; 2 Corinthians 11:3; 1 Timothy 2:13-14." Fall and other religions (creation.com)
  15. "Rather, the point is that we all possess (by the nature of being one of Adam’s decedents) the same depraved nature which produces those sins. Of this, R.C. Sproul writes, “We are not sinners because we sin. We sin because we are sinners.” And we are sinners because we are children of Adam. The bible teaches this in many other places as well. Jeremiah 17:9 The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately sick; who can understand it? Psalm 14:3 They have all turned aside; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one. Psalm 51:5 Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me. Ecclesiastes 7:20 Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and never sins. Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God…" The Nature of the Fallen Nature of Man | Grace Church Wyoming, MN (gracewyoming.com) No, I am not advocating for theocracy. Just pointing out the reality of the world.
  16. quote What is depravity? Depravity is moral corruption or wickedness. To be depraved, then, is to be morally corrupt or wicked—sinful. Although God created Adam and Eve with good natures (Genesis 1:31), when Adam rebelled against God’s command and therein rejected God as his God, his nature and that of all mankind after him became corrupted—depraved. This is Paul’s point in passages like Romans 5 and 1 Corinthians 15. Romans 5:12 …sin came into the world through one man [Adam], and death through sin, and so death spread to all men because all sinned… 1 Corinthians 15:22 …in Adam all die… Without a doubt Titus 3:3 teaches that mankind is depraved—still living with the effects of Adam’s sin. That is, to be “foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another” (which we all are by nature) is to be morally corrupt or wicked. unquote The Nature of the Fallen Nature of Man | Grace Church Wyoming, MN (gracewyoming.com)
  17. Not wrong. I did not blame the uneducated entirely for the corrupt system. The broken corrupt system is a consequence of the fallen human nature. The uneducated are just a corrupt, and have a fallen nature, just the same as everyone else. They are voting too and therefore are still accountable for the corrupt system. Without the knowledge from the Bible of good and evil, or right and wrong, society is bound to choose the wrong things.
  18. Truth is hard to bear or accept by those who reject God and the Bible. Never said I am trying to win a popularity contest. You can try for that if you want. The world is a corrupt fallen place. If you are not prepared to accept that fact, all I can say is study the Bible and the fall of man.
  19. Integrity, responsibility foreign to Liberals Letters: Mary Ng and Canada's self-entitled Liberals (msn.com) No, I'm not wrong. The world is a fallen, corrupt place. Just look around. I am far from perfect, but I admit that mankind is a fallen corrupt race and needs to be redeemed one by one.
  20. The major flaw in democracy is it allows the uneducated godless reprobates, and degenerates to vote and select the winners. There are no qualifications to be able to cast a ballot. The consequences are predictable.

  22. Actually you need to refine that. There are Absolute Monarchies and there are Constitutional Monarchies. Canada is a Constitutional Monarchy. That means we are technically a democratic nation, although in actual fact it has serious flaws because many of the people running it are of questionable morals. There is a lack of respect for the higher principles of righteousness as part of historic Judeo-Christian civilization in such areas as the sanctity of human life and sexual matters. The official rejection of our historic Judeo-Christian culture and civilization, along with the higher principles it held, in favour of multiculturalism is another major flaw. But these flaws and immorality are simply a reflection of society as a whole. That's what democracy means. The society elects the government they want and that means the morals of society in general flow into the government through the election process. But it is still a democracy according to the definition. Which only goes to prove democracy is no guarantee of being a country of higher principles or morals. It can lead to just the opposite as we see. quote de·moc·racy [dəˈmäkrəsē] NOUN a system of government by the whole population or all the eligible members of a state, typically through elected representatives: unquote
  23. Strange how democracy has brought us a self-entitled government in Ottawa. Letters: Mary Ng and Canada's self-entitled Liberals (msn.com)
  24. I'm not sure that sanctions will work. How is anybody going to remove the Islamic regime when they control the army, police, and all government and have the weapons and money?
  25. Good for you. Glad you get something out of it. Merry Christmas. I celebrate the birth of Jesus.
