You make that claim that most people support abortion,.... etc. but there has never been a vote. The truth is you are just assuming or claiming that. Either way, that doesn't make it right. Right or wrong is not determined by votes or polls. If people were asked if they would like a basic income and it would pay for their accommodation, food, and other expenses, most people might say yes. But it would prove nothing. Same with everything else. Just pandering to the masses is not leadership, but that is what many politicians are all about.

Of course it is important. Canada is moving into some forms of neo-Marxism in various ways. Do you really think you can trust politicians who love Communist dictatorships?

Its simple really. Do you own anything? Would you consider it wrong for government to just walk in and take it away? Right to own means they can't do that. It Canada it is questionable because the Charter of Rights gave government every right to do whatever they want unless the Charter states otherwise. Its kind of a Charter that gives only those rights that are stated in the Charter and anything not in there is not a right. Sort of a negative Charter of Rights. Also any rights stated in the Charter are subject to the limitations stated in Supreme Court rulings. Do you think PM Pierre Trudeau knew this when he brought in the Charter of Rights? Of course he did. He would have had to know since he was the PM and supposedly knew what he was doing. Government has the power to simply take away from you anything they decide. They don't need to pass a law or go through a court or give you a due process to defend your right because in Canada in general it does not exist, particularly with regard to government action. Its kind of like a Communist dictatorship. Government can simply seize your bank account or anything you own. If you don't believe it, ask Justice minister David Lametti.

The question is not whether or not we had private property rights before or not. The question is that we do not have certain private property rights that other countries have now. "TRUDEAU’S JUSTICE MINISTER DAVID LAMETTI HAS JUST ANNOUNCED THAT PEOPLE DON’T HAVE AN “ABSOLUTE RIGHT TO OWN PRIVATE PROPERTY” IN CANADA. CANADA IS SLIDING DOWN THE SLIPPERY SLOPE INTO AUTHORITARIAN CONFISCATION OF PROPERTY, BANK ACCOUNTS AND MORE." Obviously this has serious consequences. The government has the power to seize bank accounts, which we saw last year, without any kind of due process and individual rights. The government can seize any assets or property of anyone in Canada without a person having a legitimate opportunity of defense in a court of law. This is slippery slope much like the slippery slope of medical assistance in dying.

The right to own private property should have been enshrined in the 1982 Charter of Rights, but I don't believe it was. Probably because of PM Pierre Trudeau's neo-Marxist views that the state comes ahead of the individual and that the individual has no sacred rights. We also have state provided medical care and private medical insurance and providers are not allowed in Canada. There is nothing in the Charter of Rights that says you have a right to timely medical care. What are the implications of that now that MAID is a reality in Canada? Government also tried to offer MAID to some veterans but was caught in the act. Since we are on the slippery slope of MAID and there is no respect for the sanctity of human life in Canada, what is there to stop the government from simply letting the public health care system to continue to go down the drain and simply make MAID more accessible for everyone who is desperate for help?

OK, thank you for clarifying your views. I don't have much trust in politics and politicians as I have explained before. I see the PC people as somewhere in between Liberals and today's CPC party. I think they support things like abortion, carbon taxes, same-sex marriage, etc. They really aren't that much different from the Liberals. I disagree with a lot of the CPC thinking. Politicians try to appease the great mass of people. That means some of us who believe in certain things like the sanctity of life are left on the outside. Political parties might be necessary in our system, but they fall short in many ways. I understand they are struggling to get the votes and win the next election. But thanks for explaining your point of view.

I don't think I said he "is" Trudeau's father. I simply pointed out the articles that say that and the evidence, which you chose to ignore. My thinking is he could be, but there is no absolute proof. There is a lot of circumstantial evidence that seems to point in that direction, which you choose to reject or ignore. You deny there is actual evidence when in fact I gave you the link that gives a long story full of evidence. No, its is not personal. I have nothing against the PM except I disagree with much of his views and policies and laws. That is a significant thing in my way of thinking. You as a liberal of course disagree and think everything is fine. I think his view of the world, of China, of Communist countries like Cuba are relevant and affect his thinking and how he governs Canada. Of course this is relevant. Only a diehard liberal would be in denial as you are. So go ahead and carry on in your make believe world of denial and narrow view of everything. You only accept what fits in with your world view and reject everything else out of hand. You have lots of company on here. Many think exactly like that.

Wikipedia says they made a trip to the Caribbean at the time in question. "In 1971, the Trudeaus took a second honeymoon in the Caribbean to Barbados and an unidentified nearby island then Tobago, then to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines (including both Bequia and St. Vincent) with Pierre taking a side-trip to Trinidad while Margaret stayed in Tobago." Margaret Trudeau - Wikipedia

Says who? "They recite the Canadian governments’ official travel dates to Cuba and painfully avoid the Trudeaus’ extensive personal trip to the Caribbean trip in Spring 1971. It is a fact the Trudeaus were in the Caribbean in Spring 1971. It is a fact they adored Castro. It is a fact the Trudeaus were swingers. This is what you need to know." Much more circumstantial evidence is given in the article. Of Course Fidel Castro is Justin Trudeau’s Dad. Nobody Has ‘Debunked’ Anything | by Karen Leibowitcz | Medium I will agree there is no absolute proof of anything. Of course anyone is free to believe what they wish.

Didn't you say you worked in law enforcement at one time? Wouldn't that mean you would understand that in establishing the truth of something fits into a couple categories: 1. Strong or direct evidence would be for events where you have actual eyewitnesses or video evidence for example. Is that correct? 2. Circumstantial evidence (indirect evidence). Most cases only have this type of evidence. Is that correct? And isn't it a fact most issues or alleged events are determined by circumstantial or indirect evidence. Courts, judges, and juries in most cases only have circumstantial evidence or indirect evidence. That is what they use to determine what they would call a fact. Is that correct? Therefore you seem to be obfuscating this issue by saying "not in evidence". Circumstantial evidence or indirect evidence is still evidence. That is what evidence is and that is how most facts are established. So lets be honest. There is lots of evidence (indirect) in some cases or events that happened. Others have little or scant evidence and some is questionable. But facts are almost always determined by evidence (circumstantial or more direct, obvious or clear). This article gives a lot more circumstantial evidence than the other one. Of Course Fidel Castro is Justin Trudeau’s Dad. Nobody Has ‘Debunked’ Anything | by Karen Leibowitcz | Medium

The claim that China is not a Communist country is ludicrous and dangerous propaganda. It is a single party, totalitarian state that controls everything and fits the definition.

"Premier Castro"??? Sounds like you admire him as if he is your Premier.. hmmm Calling the Communist dictator Premier sounds a bit bizarre. You say there are no Communist countries in the world now. Wow! You need to do some reading. You could start by reading the history of Fidel Castro on Wikipedia. Cuba certainly is considered a Communist country and it became so by a Communist Revolution led by Fidel Castro. He was taught and believed in Marxism-Leninism. Is this the new liberal ideology to claim that countries that had Communist revolutions are no longer Communist? Fidel Castro - Wikipedia

Good question. The article on the link I just gave you claims Margaret visited Cuba nine months before Justin was born. The article by Global News denies all this. But the article on Trudeau being his son claims to debunk these denials by mainstream media. Parliament denies he is Fidel's son but what would anyone expect Parliament to say about it if it came from the Liberal government. Does anyone really expect to get a true answer on that question from the Liberals? Also didn't mainstream media receive 500 million dollars from the Liberal government a few years ago? What would anyone expect MSM to say when they were paid off by the government?

Did you ever read the story that claims to explain how JT could be Fidel's son (or one of his sons)? Bombshell Evidence PROVES Justin Trudeau Is Fidel Castro’s Son - News Punch

God has already "come down and told us directly" with his written word. Its called the Bible. Get one.

Did you notice how the CBC, CTV news hosts and political pundits are constantly mocking or slurring the American GOP (Republicans) for the many votes they are casting to choose their house speaker? The Democrats and the mainstream media seem to be obsessed with trying to fault the GOP for not reaching an immediate majority vote and some even claim the democratic system is collapsing somehow. How ridiculous can they get and desperate to find fault with the Republicans? The media just prove over and over how shallow their thinking is and how little credibility they have. The sky is not falling and the American system will continue as normal. At some point the House will choose a speaker and they will move on. No need for all the chicken littles to panic and loose their marbles.

Buried By Media: How The Liberal Party Embedded China Into Canadian Society (capforcanada.com) It is quite obvious the Trudeaus and liberals have sucked up to Communist China for decades and they have become entrenched in Canadian society in many ways.

It was strictly an alliance of defence. QueenMandy mentioned it but it proves nothing. It certainly does not prove we need to be have some kind of close relationship with Communist China. So are you mentioning it just to be contrary or what is your point?

No. One could hardly call it an alliance. The west fought Nazi Germany from the west and Stalin fought them from the east because they invaded Russia. Both sides fought simply for their own survival to defeat the Nazis. It was a matter of self preservation.

No it is not. It is a disgusting view only to a heathen, depraved sinner who rejects God and his word, and has no respect for the sanctity of human life of the unborn child. The unborn baby is just as human as you and has just as much right to live as you. He or she did no crime and should not die. I think when God, in his written revelation, recognizes the unborn as human and knows them personally, it should tell us he regards them as persons the same as someone who is born. We should all respect God's view as he created us and owns our bodies.

I don't think anything Nixon said had any bearing on what former Commie lover Pierre Trudeau did. The proof is his visits to China before 1970 when diplomatic relations were established and his love for Communist dictatorships in other countries. But you should not listen to Canadian media to find out the historical truth on Canada and China's relationship because they are fronting for the liberals and keep the truth quiet. You have to read foreign media to find out a lot of things. You seem to think Canada can have some kind of relationship with Communist dictatorships that deny human rights. That is the kind of thinking that Liberals have that got Canada into the mess. "have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness" (Communist - Fascist states that deny human rights. "In U.S. backyard: How China embedded itself in Canada" In U.S. backyard: How China embedded itself in Canada - The Sunday Guardian Live "Canada has been making headlines in India recently, and not in a good way. There were Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s statements about the farmer issue, seen in New Delhi as interference in internal affairs. And then documents were released showing that as late as 2018 Canada was allowing PLA soldiers to observe Canadian winter warfare training, seen as of use to China in its aggression against India in the Himalayas—and when the Canadian military unilaterally decided to stop the training, some in Canadian foreign affairs hit the roof." This was very recent. It seems many Canadian politicians, especially liberals and left, are out of touch with the real world.

I mentioned Quebec's obsession with climate change or environmentalism in the context of their ignoring the failed justice system and the failed bail system. They should be more concerned about the failed soft-on-crime of the liberals. They are the ones that vote heavily federal Liberals. You are being dishonest there. That is not changing the topic. It was part of the topic.

Nonsense. Would you suggest mankind (the global order) should cull the population? We already have had massive evil with the Holocaust when one third of the Jews in Europe were murdered by the Nazis. We have abortion which has killed about sixty million babies since Roe versus Wade in 1973. Now we have doctor assisted suicide which is killing at least ten thousand people a year in Canada and likely kill far more when they start including those with mental problems or even depressed people. The world and mankind was created by God and it is in his hands. Man should stop trying to play God.

No, I don't think so. Pierre Trudeau visited China long before 1970 when he officially established diplomatic relations with China. Canada and its PM decide themselves what their foreign relations policies will be. Pierre Trudeau was the last person to listen to Americans, our allies. He reduced the size of NATO in Europe and brought troops home from Germany. He loved Communist countries and became a personal friend of Fidel Castro. "The elder "Trudeau didn't allow much politics to colour Canada-China relations. He took politics out of economic and trade relations," said Tang Xiaosong, executive deputy director of the Centre for Canadian Studies at the Guangzhou Institute of Foreign Languages. "The younger Trudeau, I think, will very much follow in the footsteps of his father. Because his father had a very positive stance toward China." The elder Trudeau's approach – and appeal – was cemented in 1973, on his landmark visit to Beijing to commemorate the renewal of diplomatic relations between the two countries. After a two-hour meeting with Mao Zedong that followed nearly 11 hours of formal talks with Premier Zhou Enlai, Mr. Trudeau offered flattery for his hosts, speaking of their genius in creating a system "that, in comparison with all previous Chinese social systems, is striving to provide human dignity and equality of opportunity for the Chinese people." Pierre Trudeau’s China legacy looms large ahead of PM’s first official visit - The Globe and Mail As a matter of the record, some churches in Canada had been sending missionaries to China since the 1800s. Some of them cozied up with Chinese leaders of political parties and movements. I believe a few were even closely associated with the Communist revolutionaries before the 1949 Communist Revolution. One must ask why they would do that. The Bible says have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness (Communism). Why on earth any missionary would become associated with a Communist revolutionary or far left politician is beyond understanding, but I believe that is what happened. I suspect, but cannot prove, some of these missionaries had connections with some liberals back home in Canada. I would like to investigate this further and will look at a book I have called "Claws of the Panda" and see if there is any other historical information on the internet.
