  1. That's what I figured.
  2. Of course you get to decide who is normal.
  3. Really lucky the centre stayed offshore. The island only got Cat 1 hurricane winds, it was Cat 4 at the centre. It could have been much worse than Freda
  4. I don't have a problem with a buy nothing day. Putting reins on our rampant consumerism isn't being ant capitalist.
  5. The USD has been on a tear against other currencies since 2022. not an excuse for our governments policies but we are not alone.
  6. I certainly don't think she is a Russian operative but you just have to look at the positions she has taken on foreign affairs, NATO and Ukraine and not be an id*ot to realize Putin will be quite happy with this appointment. Whether he will when she is actually in office is another matter. Nothing to do with being in a cult, just actually taking what people say literally, not making up your own meanings.
  7. More like her stated opinions on foreign policy, NATO and Ukraine.
  8. No reason to think she is working for the Russians but considering her stated positions on NATO and Ukraine, they will definitely think her appointment is an asset
  9. The real oil production was in the Caucasus and Ukraine was in the way. I'm sure Ukraine knows all about fracking and they still only produce 1/10th the oil.
  10. Vichy France didn't border the Atlantic, Germany occupied the whole coast from 1940.
  11. Alberta alone produces ten times as much oil per day than Ukraine. To make room for Germans under Lebensraum, he had to get rid of the locals.
  12. There is plenty of evidence and Hitler laid it out with a whole chapter of Mein Kampf dedicated to Lebensraum. Vichy France was a puppet state that covered only a third of France. In 1942 the Germans ended the farce and occupied the whole country. They forced French police to round up Jews and kept 2 million French POW's. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_prisoners_of_war_in_World_War_II
  13. Is X a step away from becoming just another far right echo chamber? https://www.ctvnews.ca/business/guardian-quits-x-social-media-platform-citing-racism-and-conspiracy-theories-1.7108510 https://www.straitstimes.com/business/companies-markets/bluesky-gains-over-a-million-members-as-users-flee-elon-musks-x-after-us-election https://www.theverge.com/2024/7/3/24191074/meta-threads-users-mark-zuckerberg
  14. Politicizing cupholders. What's next.
  15. We remember Trudeau Sr giving the people of Salmon Arm BC the middle finger.
  16. We aren't that great but nowhere near as bad as our southern neighbours. We also have 4 year greater life expectancy than the US.
  17. Don't know where you got that bullshit. I'm Canadian and less than ten lbs overweight, sometimes only five according to my BMI and every doctor I have had tells me to push the table away.
  18. Sure is. 335 million people and those are the best they can do. Pathetic.
  19. Due this month, will ge it.
  20. Either one, you still chose the dumbest.
