    You'd rather have First Nations people on welfare than have them have the dignity of a good paying job.  As you people continue to ignore the biggest CO2 emitter in the world, and give them a pass to pollute for another 10 years.  But with the other sides of your mouth, proclaim climate change an urgent issue.  

    Five old men condemning the up-coming generations to all the wonderful benefits of living on an isolated reserve. The fulfillment of chronic unemployment, poor water and waste systems, the superb freedom from never knowing the meaning of 'work ethic', the exhilaration of dependence on money hand-outs, etc.  . . . . . the list is long.  Hereditary 'Chiefs' = selfish and stupid. Elected Chiefs = know what and how to truly help their folks to better themselves . . . Times have changed:  The buffalo are gone, they're not coming back - - - get over it. 

    Shady's post above nailed it.

    Sure, its putting pressure on governments to start talking and changing the status quo on how we do business in Canada.  It's an effective strategy.  I've addressed the topic of jailing them several times now but I suspect you've been to busy foaming at the mouth to have noticed.  The topic as it usually does in these threads has expanded to other issues related to it.

    Yup, I can spot a blinkered machine operator a mile away.  Hmmm a grader operator maybe?  Up and down the grade at 5 miles an hour for 43 years would give anyone tunnel vision.

    You have made a fool of yourself and insulted the logging industry.  

    Would like to see a few of these protesters singled out, convicted, and jailed. Everyday, arrest a few more . . . convicted and jailed.  Not the mass arrests that get all the media coverage, just peck away at them and deal with them harshly.

    This is why they flipped out on Mark Norman, he broke the code, he bucked the rider, what he did was not illegal, but it was defiant, and that, they will not tolerate.

    In your opinion, is there any way the taxpaying public could find out the details/payouts/greased palms/etc.of this sordid affair?  Was Mark Norman an honorable man - would it be dis-honorable to speak of his inquisition?  Just asking . . . .

    Yeah well, like I said you people usually only think about the small picture that's right in front of you in virtual isolation from anything else going on around you.

    Let me guess you're a hoe operator....I've had to chase more of those morons out of fish-bearing streams than I can shake a depth gauge at.

    You're making a fool of yourself, and you're off topic.  Care to comment on the back-up of commercial marine shipping and the consequences of the protesters actions ?

    Well in my 47 years on the coast I've learned enough working 9 years for Interfor including 4 in watershed/salmon restoration project management and environmental monitoring. Combine that with what I learned over 25 years of fishing/aquaculture 10 as an owner/operator and did a lot of log salvaging in those years too - its amazing how much loggers leave behind. Round that off with another couple of seasons of fisheries coordination and monitoring and some 16 seasons of wild life viewing.  I've also been involved as a volunteer in the governance of our regional district for some 40 years now.

    The most important thing I've learned is just how interconnected things are and yet just how isolated so many things in different sectors and at different levels are, especially their management.

    And then I have too listen to people who think they know everything they need to know about the government the economy and the environment call-out the scoops, wax longingly about filling ditches up with protesters and peppering just about everything they say with lol's, rolly eyes and references to Stalin et al. 

    You sound like a politician . . . this thread's about pipeline protesters, and whether or not they should be jailed.

  6. Quebec is the cancer of Canada . . . . 

    Manitoba west would be a very viable country in a decade.  Eastern seaport at Churchill for access to European markets, Vancouver & Prince Rupert for the Asian markets. Food and fuel . . . we have it all. With a 'tight' country as the west would be . . . investment money wouldn't be scared off or discouraged.  There'll never be anything as long as Quebec is involved.

    Lets Say that Canada had no debt, and we could agreed to lower our taxes, What precentage should our taxes be lowered by? How far could we lower taxes, without sacrificing our core values, like the right to an education, infrastructure, and safe communities?

    Canada will never ever be debt free . . . . so, the questions in the OP is as relevant as:  What color should we change the sky to?  Should we outlaw night time?   :mellow:

    We did leave him there, that's what got us into trouble.

    The trouble was what Trudeau inflicted on the Canadian taxpayer by bringing that criminal back here.  Spin and deflect that any way you like.  He should be in an American prison serving time for a crime against America.  Are you a part-time drama teacher ?

    Khadr was a terrorist with bomb-making videos on the internet, he was part of an illegal attack that killed an American soldier who was in uniform (and deserving the protection of the Geneva Conventions), Khadr pleaded guilty to killing the American and has never denied that he did it. 

    He should have been left to the Americans. His crime was against an American. Trudeau is the real criminal here.

    As much as I hate to note this, Queen Elizabeth II is on our money, coins - since about 1953 or so.

    The modern, post 2000 absurdity is that the Bank of Canada wants more women on our money!

    Problem solved . . . . .  Justin Trudeau's face on one side, and his other face on the other side. One face is white, the other face brown . . . . endless possibilities. Perhaps one side with his 'beard' and tears, the other side . . . . . . ?

    My goal in this thread is to get people to post here because I don't want to post on the regular forums and be subject to moderation I don't like.  I've been on a million forums, political and not political, I've never ever seen anything close to the moderation problems like I've seen here.  I come back for a month or two and the problems begin yet again.

    Agree . . . the moderation here is arrogant and overbearing.  Humour and sarcasm is not tolerated. The ebb and flow of conversation is stifled on a variety of subjects without any input from the moderator except his perceived 'thread drift' warnings.  Suspensions, points against, countless e-mail verifications, etc., etc. . . . . make this site ponderous and dull.  I'm talking about Charles Anthony.
