You said he was tolerant, which can mean almost anything. What was he tolerant of? Homosexuality, LGBT or what? Was he tolerant of sin? Stealing, murder, sexual abuse, pedophila? What do you think he was tolerant of?

I'm 100% sure he was nicer than me. He was God. I am a fallen sinner saved by grace through Jesus Christ. You are also a fallen sinner, but see yourself as someone who doesn't need God or the Savior or salvation. You have a serious problem. You are part of the corrupt, fallen world but don't even recognize your problem. Using the name of Jesus in a discussion when you don't even believe in God, Jesus or the Bible is pretty dicy.

We have all heard that nonsense before. Total nonsense. Since you don't even believe in God, Jesus or the Bible, how do you have any knowledge about such matters to begin with? You just use the name to try to score a brownie point with false claims.

Appointing Johnson as a "special rappateur" just shows how unethical Trudeau is. Johnston has known deep connections with China as do his children. Yet he was supposed to be representing the interests of Canada in investigating the Chinese interference. He was the last person on earth who should have been appointed to do that job. The local dog catcher would have been a better choice. Trudeau should really step down next. I don't see how Canadians could possibly trust him to protect our democratic system which already appears badly compromised by Chinese interference. How many other prominent Canadians or influential Canadians have deep roots in China? That is something that should also be investigated and reported to Canadians.

What we have been hearing about for months may be only the tip of the iceberg. Since Trudeau appointed the former GG as a special Rappateur, the debate has been centred on Johnston's connections with Trudeau, the Trudeau Foundation and the Liberal Party. This article points out his love for and ties to China over the decades. Yet little or none of this was mentioned by the media or journalists the past few months. How could he have possibly been an impartial investigator of Chinese interference with his affection for China? How could Trudeau have possibly appointed someone like this? Certainly Johnston's history with China would have been well known by Trudeau and his advisors. This raises a lot of questions. "“He’s obviously both in love with and infatuated by the PRC. When you are madly in love with someone, you want to be close to that person. You want to be loved by that person. You won’t do anything to jeopardize the relationship and you can’t see, or don’t want to see, the ugly side of that person.” Critics say David Johnston was compromised by his deep affection for China (msn.com)

This came as a welcome surprise to learn there is a national group which has developed some tools to fight back against the SOGI 123 education agenda and grooming of young children in sexual orientation, gender identity and everything that goes with it. The organization is called Action4Canada and you can read all about it and see some of their legal tools they have. Notice of Liability to Remove Explicit Books & Radical LGBTQ Learning Resource | Action4Canada These NOLS or Notices of Liability are legal forms that they make available. These are excellent tools and this has placed teacher unions, officials, libraries, and others on defence. The pushback is growing stronger and Action4Canada has the knowledge and abilities to press ahead. They should be supported in every way possible. " Action4Canada has created the SOGI/CSE Notice of Liability advising Trustees, Ministers, Teachers, Librarians etc, that they will be held personally liable for exposing minors to any form of pornography/sexually explicit material, activities or organizations promoting sexual deviancy and the exploitation of minors. Use the NOL and demand that; the SOGI-123/Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE) learning resource be immediately and completely removed from libraries and the education system; all of the books listed, including titles by the same authors, be immediately removed; and that all educational facilities including libraries cease and desist promotion of any and all activities, performers and clubs that exploit vulnerable minors. We also encourage you to further demand a Freedom of Information request for all the details (to include emails, attachments and any other correspondence of who approved these books, as well as the grounds for this approval, any instructions given from anyone else in relation to this approval, and minutes of all meetings in relation to all such approvals. Good News: As a result of Action4Canada leaders and volunteers serving the SOGI/CSE NOL and working to bring public awareness to the agenda to sexualize children using the education system and public libraries; the government; the teachers union; Reg Krake, Executive Director, of the ARC Foundation; the media (report 1 an report 2); the BCTLA and the Canadian Federation of Library Associations, are all publicly responding in an effort to defend their position, and thereby exposing themselves to greater liability. It is a criminal offense to sexualize and exploit children, and attempting to disguise it as anything other than this does not change the fact that it is unlawful. Parents and concerned citizens, we cannot ignore this message. Our children and youth are being subjected to twisted ideologies using social justice as a means to indoctrinate and groom them. From the highly politicized radical LGBTQ agenda to the made-up critical race theory, the government has a target on our children’s heads and we need to step up and put a STOP to it.

You and SpankyMcFarland believe the climate hysteria because you are sucked into the climate hysteria tsunami. NO other reason. You know nothing about any science around it. You are the type that just FOLLOWS THE HERD. " The video above is from Friends of Science, a Canada-based “non-profit organization run by dedicated volunteers comprised mainly of active and retired earth and atmospheric scientists, engineers, and other professionals.” On the same day last week that Greta Thunberg made an impassioned speech to the United Nations about her fears of a climate emergency, a group of 500 prominent scientists and professionals, led by the CLINTEL co-founder Guus Berkhout, sent this registered letter to the United Nations Secretary-General stating that there is no climate emergency and climate policies should be designed to benefit the lives of people. Here’s the press release, here’ the list of 500 signees, and here’s the opening of the letter: A global network of more than 500 knowledgeable and experienced scientists and professionals in climate and related fields have the honor to address to Your Excellencies the attached European Climate Declaration, for which the signatories to this letter are the national ambassadors. The general-circulation models of climate on which international policy is at present founded are unfit for their purpose. Therefore, it is cruel as well as imprudent to advocate the squandering of trillions of dollars on the basis of results from such immature models. Current climate policies pointlessly and grievously undermine the economic system, putting lives at risk in countries denied access to affordable, reliable electrical energy. We urge you to follow a climate policy based on sound science, realistic economics and genuine concern for those harmed by costly but unnecessary attempts at mitigation Here are the specific points about climate change highlighted in the letter: 1 Natural as well as anthropogenic factors cause warming. 2. Warming is far slower than predicted. 3. Climate policy relies on inadequate models. 4. CO2 is not a pollutant. It is a plant food that is essential to all life on Earth. Photosynthesis is a blessing. More CO2 is beneficial for nature, greening the Earth: additional CO2 in the air has promoted growth in global plant biomass. It is also good for agriculture, increasing the yields of crops worldwide. 5. Global warming has not increased natural disasters. 6. Climate policy must respect scientific and economic realities. 7. There is no climate emergency. Therefore, there is no cause for panic. MP: What about that “consensus” and “settled science” about climate change we always hear about? How can there be a consensus when there’s a global network of more than 500 knowledgeable and experienced scientists and professionals in climate and related fields who challenge the “settled science”? Actually, challenging the consensus among the scientific community is nothing new, but those the voices of those challenging the consensus are always drowned out by the tsunami of climate hysteria from the climate alarmists. For example, in 2012 a group of more than 125 scientists sent an open letter to the United Nations warning that scientific evidence refuted UN Secretary-General’s Ban Ki-Moon repeated assertions on weather and climate. Those warnings of climate hysteria unsupported by the scientific evidence were ignored in 2012, just like the letter from the 500 prominent scientists and professionals will be ignored in 2019. In other words, it’s “deja vu all over again.” There Is No Climate Emergency, Say 500 Experts in Letter to the United Nations | American Enterprise Institute - AEI

hahahahaha. Wow, what ignorance! You better do a little study before commenting. You just said the dumbest thing possible. You don't even know the basics of CO2 in the atmosphere. Dealing with you is child's play. Natural CO2 emissions caused by wildfires.

I just read a sentence on Wikipedia where it said CO2 has increased in the atmosphere by 50% since the start of the Industrial Revolution. Can you believe this? This is like saying the amount of oxygen or any other gas in the atmosphere changed by 50% in a couple hundred years. Or that the amount of water in the ocean increased by 50%. Total nonsense. CO2 is a trace gas in the atmosphere and 97% of the CO2 is there by nature or naturally. " This is an increase of 50% since the start of the Industrial Revolution, up from 280 ppm during the 10,000 years prior to the mid-18th century.[4][3][5] The increase is due to human activity.[6]" Carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere - Wikipedia If anyone wants to believe this, that's up to them. I don't. The truth is they should have said the amount of CO2 emitted by human causes increased since the Industrial Revolution perhaps by 50% but the total CO2 certainly did not. 97% of the atmosphere is natural CO2 and man contributes only 3% to begin with. But they conveniently did not mention that.

And you still think putting more and more carbon taxes on everyone and killing our vital energy industry will stop climate change and these forest fires. Sad. Climate change is natural and man cannot stop it any more than stop the hurricanes every year.

It is a Biblical fact that Satan exists and is a very powerful being in this world. Non-believers are unknowingly serving him constantly. But there is deliverance possible. Spending your life as a servant of Satan is a real waste of life and may have a very bitter, unhappy ending as well as disastrous consequences in this life as countless people have found. If you want to be delivered, the King James Bible is a good place to start. Satan is no match for the triune God and His Son Jesus Christ. There is no other way to be delivered. Serious questions welcome, but only serious. "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12 King James Version

You are dreaming in technicolour. You have a totally false conception of climate change and what it is caused by. Atmospheric CO2 is 97% caused by nature and it is an essential gas for life on earth. Man's contribution of CO2 to the atmosphere is miniscule. There is no proof man's small contribution is even causing climate change. There are many factors that contribute to climate change. There is no science that ever proved man is causing global warming or climate change. Canada's fossil fuel CO2 contribution to the atmosphere is a very small part of the whole of what man contributes . Man contributes about 3% of the total CO2. Out of that China contributes 28% and Canada contributes a tiny fraction of that. Climate has changed throughout history many times. The earth has had many hot periods throughout history long before the industrial age, that is before motor vehicles existed. Nothing to do with man. Quit smoking all that pot.

Good work!!! I was purely speculating but looks like I hit the nail on the head. Too bad Trudeau, minister Guilbeault and the rest of the war-on-climate-change clowns will never recognize it and admit they are wasting their time and our money. If that was it for 2021 imagine how much worse it will be for 2023 as the fires are much worse.

Just wondered how much CO2 all these hundreds of forest fires across Canada are emitting into the atmosphere. The forest fires probably emit more CO2 than humans emit in ten years with fossil fuels. But the climate change alarmists and fanatics and Trudeau will never admit that.

This news item gives a fairly good idea of the political beliefs of the present Pope. It reveals he is a progressive, Socialist, and his beliefs have nothing to do with Biblical Christianity. He is a kind of populist and believes and advocates what appeals to the heathen world. It is all about winning popularity with unbelievers or non-Christian heathen. That is what matters to him. Bible truth is of no consequence. He must actually believe that Jesus was some kind of Socialist or progressive, which of course is a blasphemy. Pope Francis: all you need to know about the Progressive Pontiff (msn.com) First of all Socialism or wealth re-distribution is contrary to the commandment 'thou shalt not steal". Secondly, his embracing all religions is exactly contrary to what Jesus would do. Jesus taught there is no salvation apart from faith in Him. See gospel of John for proof. Embracing people with unbiblical beliefs on sexuality and in effect, condoning it all is also completely contrary to what Jesus and the Bible teaches. The Bible says to have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness. He obviously rejects the Bible and believes acknowledging anything and everything as acceptable. This is secular humanism, which God rejects in the Bible. This is much like what Trudeau, Biden, and other Liberal Papists do. Trudeau said today to people who wanted pride flags at schools who rejected them, not to worry; the government will fly a pride flag on Parliament Hill. The Pope is the complete opposite of Jesus Christ and advocates and promotes everything that is in direct opposition to God and the Bible. He may win popularity contests in this world. Jesus took the opposite position as did his believers. That is why he was crucified and his followers were persecuted and martyred over the centuries. The same situation exists today in the world. If you want to be loved by the world, follow the Pope's example. "13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: {strait: or, narrow} 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it." Matthew 7:13 KJV

OK maybe I did. I might have made a mistake. I do admit I sometimes use the wrong word or words. Now, are you a Romanist or what is your religious background?

Yes, you are correct. I did use the word refugee because I was replying to you question. You said "Would you be in favour of allowing a ship of Muslim refugees to land in Canada from Iran who are trying to escape the Ayatollah?" You also referred to one ship of Muslim refugees. I answered accordingly. Not sure what you are driving at. I have clarified. A ship of Muslim refugees is not the same as mass immigration. This has drifted away from the topic quite far now. I think I have said enough on refugees.

Yes, I still am concerned. The white European founding people are a declining people in Canada. Refugees are not the same thing as immigrants. I was talking about immigrants from the third world who are growing at a faster rate and the European founding people are declining in Canada.

There is no change. You asked if am opposed to a boatload of Muslim refugees coming in. I told you I am not opposed if they are legitimate refugees such as Afghans in danger by the Taliban. That is different from mass immigration from the third world. You asked about refugees on an emergency basis and I said I support that depending on the circumstances. That is different than the Liberals plan to bring in half a million immigrants a year from the third world. I oppose that. The problem is not a small number of refugees who are trying to escape death by the Taliban; the problem is mass immigration of hundreds of thousands or half a million people a year from the third world which the Liberals are bringing in. Romanists beliefs in just getting rid of the border and allowing everyone in the world to come in. What do you think? Should we have borders and immigration restrictions or not?

Of course. Canada already allowed thousands of refugees to come to Canada, but it's record of helping them is not perfect. It seems to get tangled up in bureaucracy sometimes.

Then there is the question of why Romanist-controlled Canada refused to allow a ship of German- Jewish refugees to enter Canada and save them from the Holocaust. Just prior to the outbreak of WW2 in 1939, Ireland also refused to let German Jewish refugees and other refugees to settle there.

Here is another important fact of history that many are not aware of. The Republic of Ireland, a Romanist country, was neutral in World War II. While the allies and many Canadians gave their lives in the defence of freedom and to oppose the Nazis, Ireland was able to stand on the sidelines and do nothing. One of the leaders of Ireland said this: quote Largely forgotten outside of the British Isles, De Valera towered over Ireland like a colossus – not only did he found the Fianna Fail party and help to establish the Constitution, but he also served as prime minister and president on multiple occasions. Indeed, De Valera founded the modern Irish state, as much as Mustafa Kemal Ataturk created the modern nation of Turkey around the same time. Perhaps the most controversial episode of De Valera's epic career took place in 1945 when – in light of Ireland's neutrality and independent foreign policy during the just-completed Second World War – he, as prime minister, extended his condolences to the vanquished German people over the death of Nazi dictator and architect of the Holocaust Adolf Hitler. unquote The Irish Nationalist And The Nazi: When Eamon De Valera Paid His Respects To Adolf Hitler (ibtimes.com) Why is it heavily Romanist countries such as Italy, Spain, and Ireland seemed to be sympathetic to Hitler and the Nazis?

Romanism always was a threat to freedom and democracy. This has been the case for the past 500 years and continues to be true. Look how the Liberals cozied up to Communist China for the past 50 years. Notice how they are trying to maneuver themselves out of the spotlight about Chinese interference in Canada's elections. The Trudeaus have always had special affection for Fidel Castro and Communist dictators. Trudeau and Liberals thought they could make China become like Liberals. China laughed Trudeau off eight years ago. They must be still laughing at the naivety of Liberals.

Devout Romanists bow down to the Fascist dictator at his death. General Franco: “Hitler fought for Christianity in Europe” – Banjara Origin News (ivarfjeld.com)

There are mountains of evidence to show Romanism is not Christianity by any stretch. quote General Franco of Spain said: “Adolf Hitler, son of the Catholic Church, died while defending Christianity. It is therefore understandable that words cannot be found to lament over his death, when so many were found to exalt his life. Over his mortal remains stands his victorious moral figure. With the palm of the martyr, God gives Hitler the laurels of Victory.” Before World War II, there was an openly fascist political organization in Spain named Falange. The entire Catholic Youth Organization joined the Falange. General Franco’s brother in law, Serrano Suner, was the Catholic Youth secretary, and most of Robles followers also joined. The Falange employed the successful tactics of the Italian fascists and Nazis: physical violence. When the people of Spain resisted the fascist takeover, Pius XI spoke out strongly, calling everyone who was not a fascist a Bolshevik, and blessing “all those who have taken the difficult and dangerous task to defend and reinstate the honor of God and Religion.” Cardinal Pacelli became pope as Pius XII. He congratulated Franco: “With great joy we address you, dearest sons of Catholic Spain, to express our paternal congratulations for the gift of peace and victory, with which God has chosen to crown the Christian heroism of your faith and charity …. unquote General Franco: “Hitler fought for Christianity in Europe” – Banjara Origin News (ivarfjeld.com) But the main reason it is not Christianity is the Bible doesn't support it and if properly understood shows it is a false system.
