Remember when the -obviously- Muslim mayor of London, Sadiq Khan declared after another killing made by Muslims in his own city that this was just part and parcel of living in a big city? Where did this rhetoric go when a white guy did the same thing?

Muslim? He said it has nothing to do with Islam. Of course. It's just part and parcel of living in a big city. Oh wait, no terrorist attacks happen in Tokyo, 30 something million inhabitants? Oh true, there are no Muslims there.

It has nothing to do with Islam, of course. You're really a Saudi paid agent. CSIS and RCMP should investigate you.

Where were you when 120 Christians were killed by Muslims and Nigeria in the last 3 weeks? Where were you when a Filipino Church was bombed last week and killed 20 people by a Muslim? Where were you when the almost daily stabbings that occurred in London by Muslims, who also threw acid in the face of unbelievers of Islam? Where were you when we found out collectively about the paedophilia rings organized by Muslims? Where were you when a Muslim man decided to shoot 50 gay men and women at a club in Orlando? No where. You probably were one of those saying those were not real Muslims. But those two isolated incidents; it's clear, there's a rise in right-wing terrorism according to you. Disgusting and despicable.

I avoid social media at all costs since a couple of months. I even deleted my Facebook and am not using apps to talk to those I care for. But to the title of your thread, even if I know your intentions, it seems like you're asking for a snitch fest. People may speak whatever they want and as a free speech activist, I won't provide you with names of websites or social medias that are invested by extremists. This seems like a snitch request.

What I'm going to write is very politically incorrect. But when Putin took back official power in 2012 after a break with Medvedev who had the official status (but was just a puppet of the Putin's regime), one of the first thing he did to lower dissent and bring social order after the big protests against him in Moscow and St Petersburg was to ban NGOs, especially those who were American funded from the country. The reasons the regime stated to ban them was because the NGOs were actually a tool of propaganda from foreign agents. At first, we may have thought that it was all just paranoia, and just a tyrant trying to get a grip on its population by repressing dissent, which it was partly. But the official reasons given by Putin at that time were right. NGOs, especially the environmental ones, are ironically funded by the governments, including the federal government of the US and corporations that are close to the lobbies that pressure Washington D.C. and its deep state. It's no surprise to see that these NGOs, but also other lobbies that are 'environmentally driven' are in fact foreign agents who cash in a lot of money to create dissent in our society about projects that emit CO2, especially the projects of oil exploitation, that are very lucrative. How could Suzuki for example have 2 or 3 huge domains for himself? Wasn't he an environmentalist driven by principles? Shouldn't he be practicing what he's preaching, since the 'environmental catastrophes' caused by 'global warming' would be imminent according to him and all his subordinates? I think the RCMP should investigate thoroughly the NGOs and all environmental activist groups and convict those who have a link with either a foreign oil company or receive funding from a government. And I mean it. Put to jail the foreign agents, and ban activists who are proven to be dissenters. It's our national interests who are at stake and it should be mandatory for the foreign groups to be investigated thoroughly to see if their pretense is legitimate, or if they have other goals in mind.

Not saying that I'm doing something illegal, but I'm not paying taxes. So while your pension remains flat, I accumulate wealth.

Look, I'm not personally involved with the tragedies of the Inuits. I wasn't even born, I'm only 23 years old, and I know no one close that was affected by this. I'm not inconsiderate to their suffering, but when I'm being asked by someone 'WhY woULdn'T YoU CrY yOu ArE sUcH a ShiThEAd fOR NoT CrYiNg' like Queenhead says, I'm sorry, but fu** off.

No, the system is rigged and oppressive to the people. I never judge the whole population as being stupid.

Codewords for discriminating white men.

How about I pay no reparations, don't declare all my income so Trudeau doesn't take my money to pay for useless things and I laugh at you for virtue signalling?

This is mostly a Protestant thing. The Germans apologize a lot. The Swedes too, even though their past colonialism is quasi nonexistent. The French in Paris do that too. In the US, self loathing protestant whites are like that about slavery.

You might need to take your medications, in what way would you think I should cry about the tragedies that happened?

With airstrikes please

Anyone has had enough of his crying hysterical fits? Another day, another news of Justin Trudeau crying like a little b that he is, this time for the Inuits. Why is such a mentally and emotionally unstable child running the country, again?

Once again, I'm not at all for gun control. Don't put words in my mouth, I never addressed this non issue in my posts but you did and I answered about it, and I will repeat it; I AM NOT FOR GUN CONTROL. Is that clear enough? I don't care about the gun violence statistics whatsoever and never brought it up, so stop talking about a non issue which I was not discussing. What I am talking about, is the fact that in the US, there are literal slums which you can find yes in the Native Reserves, but not in the cities. Look, I live in Montréal. It's considered as a poor city. Yet, we have no slums. In LA, you have tents and caravans of homeless people, cities of homelessness that are enormous. The people that are at the extreme lower end in the US are not taken care of, in Canada they are and it shows. We have almost no crime, even in big cities. In Montréal, we have almost no shootings except from the mob from time to time or a school shooter once in a decade or so. It's not unsafe almost anywhere in Montréal. But take Chicago, San Francisco, and you may be in a very bad neighborhood with people doing heroin literally on the sidewalk with needles everywhere. We have that on very small scale in Montréal, very small. We do recognize the existence of people who are simply losers and take care of them pretty well I would say all things considered. In the US, the losers are left on the streets and dying in abject poverty. This point, you never bring it up

Yes, but let's agree on this one thing; the Americans living in Canada recognize themselves as way much more of Americans than Canadians recognize themselves as Canadians living in America, which means that Americans live in Canada way more than Canadians live in the US. In fact, not a lot of Canadians really cross the border to live in the US. The CINO (Canadians in Name Only) are abundant near the border. What you failed to address in your whole post is the slum issue. You talked about gun violence in Toronto and Winnipeg and I totally agree with you, it happens. But I was specifically talking about the fact that in Canada, there are almost no slums compared to the richest and most populous States of the US. In California, just in LA you have way more slums than there are in Canada. It's the same thing in San Francisco, nothing compares to the dangers of living there compared to any other Canadian cities. You cited Toronto as a place of gun violence, well look at Chicago for a minute. I don't agree on gun control at all, but there is a huge problem in the US in the fact that the losers of the system are left behind and not taken care of. Yes it rewards the best, but the ones who are not on the top of the pyramid in the US live like utter shit, especially compared to Canada. It's a shame that parts of LA look like Caracas.

Yes far more Canadians cross the US border because the cartels of milk for example and other products that are much cheaper in border towns in the US. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_diaspora But as a whole, there are about 1m Canadians in the US, while there are 2m Americans in Canada. The two countries are very good, I like the US, but it's not because it is a superpower militarily that it is that good of a country to live in. It's not that easy to get by in the US, it's not as unregulated as some people think, it's certain that the standards of living in the US are good, but there are lots of hidden fees and obstacles for living a great life. Many people live very poorly. You have ghettos in your big, richest States like California. Even in Montréal we don't have that much abject poverty. Yes there are homeless people in Canada, but in the US you have entire slums. The poorest and 'most dangerous' part of town in Montréal is called 'Montréal-Nord', and you see no slums like in California, and no shooting, no violence. People are poor, some people are drunk late at night in the streets, but it isn't that dangerous nor does it feel that much of a ghetto. In the US, if you're ambitious and specifically want a white collar job, you have to live in a big city, where the rent is enormous. In San Francisco for instance, $100K a year is considered poor. Yes the white collar workers make a lot of money, but they spend about half of it on rent in the hopes of maybe making it, which most of them wont, and will spend years and years trying to catch a carrot they won't be able to reach. For the rural areas, white collar jobs are scarce. So the blue collar jobs are there, they pay well, but are mostly short term. You have the habit to live a certain lifestyle, then realize that you lost your job and have to figure out how to pay for the credit on almost everything you own. The entrepreneurial route though is very good in the US. There are many advantages to be your own boss and to also own your employees, who also are ambitious and want to perform so they will get a promotion or something in return.

According to the Canada 2006 Census, 316,350 Canadians reported American as being their ethnicity, at least partially. There are also between 900,000 and 2 millionAmericans living in Canada, either as full-time or part-time residents. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Canadians This goes both ways, I don't think USA is a bad country at all, but it isn't as wholesome as some would make us believe from A to Z. There are problems in the US, and it has to do with its governance.

There is the USA we imagine and there is the USA the Americans live. Even in Louisiana, where the taxes are almost nothing in comparison to Québec, Louisiana is one of the most corrupt shithole in America (to use Trump's wordings). It's even worse than here, imagine, and we're going to pay at least 600M$/km for the new metro stations (5 stations total for $3.9B). The State, and I mean by all levels and all accounts, Executive Power, Legislative Power and even Judiciary Power is corrupt. Everyone has an election in the upcoming year, the House, the Senate are always shifting, even Judges are elected so instead of having a huge government that decides everything, the three branches of power try to appeal to their base as much as possible for the shortest gains possible. While the United States take less money from corporations and even small businesses and wage earners than most European and Asian developed countries, it has one other issue. The oligopolies. The lobbies and oligopolies pay the politicians and they give back to their donors.

Canada.... Is BACK!! Said Trudeau 4 years ago when elected. Or was it going backwards from then on?

One more mouth to feed but two hands and a brain to work with.

Look, Montréal has been struggling all season with their Power Play. They suck at it, let's put it that way. Still, Montréal is a decent team. It has good offensive players in it, but they are not in any way close to the skill Mitch Marner or John Tavares of Auston Matthews. Montréal can't compete with teams like Pittsburgh who has Malkin, Crosby and Kessel. The Eastern Conference has all the studs it seems.

That's effing unfair dude

Tavares is filthy, he would be the best player for the Habs if playing for Montréal. He's your third or tied to second best player. Old school hockey that we all like;
