  1. One thing almost all Iranian immigrants have in common. They wanted to get the hell out of Iran.
  2. If he is terminally ill, let him. Otherwise, no.
  3. Russia is doing what it always does when its army is losing, it goes after the civilian population.
  4. The West, not the World. Most of the wars between 1815 and 1914 were colonial. There wasn't a single day during Victoria's reign that British troops weren't in action in some obscure part of the world.
  5. So by that logic. Ukraine should be annexing Russia.
  6. The Supremes overturned a Quebec high court decision. Quebec never signed the Constitution. It ain’t going to happen.
  7. They ruled it “violated a woman’s right to life liberty and security of the person” How would any other law making it illegal not meet the same fate?
  8. Probably not. The Supremes said the existing law was a Charter violation, there is no reason they wouldn’t rule the same for any other law that restricted a woman’s right. What provinces could do is restrict access through the provincial health care system which some already do.
  9. Of course you do, that's why you are here. In Canada there is no abortion law but the CMA says a foetus is viable after 20 weeks (with a lot of help in a NICU) and doctors will not do abortions in the third trimester unless the mother's life is in imminent danger or the foetus is badly deformed. That's the way it is and I don't pretend to know better.
  10. The whole argument revolves around when and if a foetus becomes a person. You can "debate" this till the cows come home and I guarantee you, not one person here will change their mind.
  11. Not a big listener are you. Choice is not about imposing your views on others. My views on abortion are my business and not the issue, it's whether I have the right to impose them on others. I do not.
  12. Like I said, no one is going to change their mind on this.
  13. You don't understand what pro choice means. What I personally think about abortion is neither here nor there, I just respect the right of others to make their own choices.
  14. Everyone is worse off now. That the Trump Cult would prefer a dictatorship is not new.
  15. Firearms legislation Infrastructure Bill Climate Change Legislation Health care changes that have resulted in an all time low in uninsured Americans. Using federal buying power to lower the cost of prescription drugs. THE HORROR!!! Sure he had to compromise to get some things through but that is what it takes to get things done in the US system. Something Trump never did and still doesn't understand.
  16. In the last year, Biden has got more things through Congress than Trump did in 4 years.
  17. At this point, no one is going to change their minds on this issue.
  18. FFS, it's the home page of this website. ?
  19. The last series I really got into was Killing Eve. Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer are awesome, especially Comer. They got Emmy's and Golden Globes for their performances. Sadly its done now.
  20. No, I'm talking about the average citizens of Ukraine.
  21. It is your money but by law you have to contribute. All taxes you pay are your money. Not for me but for some, any laws that dictate behaviour are socialism.
  22. There are lots more. It went from 28% in 2012 to 69% in 2017. Bet it is more like 90% now. ? One thing we agree on. But this isn't being fought in Russia.
