US Supreme Court strikes down Roe V. Wade
Aristides replied to West's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Canada doesn't have any abortion laws but our professional ethics standards are much the same as Kansas laws. -

Kansas is about as red as you get. Actually Kansas abortion laws are not much different from established practices in Canada, so they are already on my side. -

Seems like the "radicals" are in a majority. The Kansas vote was supposed to be too close to call. It was a landslide. -

The state legislatures looking to ban abortions will never put it to a referendum and you know it. -

They will never put it to a vote and let the people decide and you know it. -

They will not put it to a separate vote. They don’t dare and you know it. -

Now that they have seen what happened in Kansas, they won't dare put it to a vote. -

Really? How many other states will be willing to put it to a vote like Kansas and let the people decide? -

Kansas voting overwhelmingly to keep abortion rights in state constitution. https://www.npr.org/sections/2022-live-primary-election-race-results/2022/08/02/1115317596/kansas-voters-abortion-legal-reject-constitutional-amendment -
!. you mean the economic advantages of cheap labour and no environmental standards. 2. We do? Where?

Basically you are talking about a race to the lowest common denominator. We can try living with an economy selling each other things made in other countries without having to create our own wealth.

Gee, I would have thought current supply chain issues and the risk of starvation in many countries because they can't get grain from the Russia and Ukraine would be a wakeup call. In my town, agriculture contributes 3.8 billion to the provincial economy with almost a billion in actual farm gate receipts, 16,000 full time jobs or 23% of all jobs in the city a good percentage of that is from dairy farms which contribute more to the local economy than any other type of farming because of the level of goods and services they require to operate. You go on about foreign ownership but the vast majority of Canadian dairy farms are family owned. You would rather give your money to foreign factory farms to save a nickel. Not everything is about saving you the odd buck in the grocery store at the expense of your own economy and access to a secure source of food.

No, the article used 2022 population figures, the homicide data was from the period 2009 to 2015. Read much?

Not really if you bother to check. Mass shootings among gang bangers aren't really a thing, with the notable exception of the Surrey Six, two of whom were not gang involved.

Most of Canada's mass shootings have happened in rural areas or smaller cities. At least three of them have actually targeted police.

I never said anything of the sort. You are quoting the wrong person. Yes, we agree.

Your talking point is out of date by 11 years and your so called data ended 7 years ago.
