  1. We have no national church either. Her head of the Church of England has nothing to do with her functions as the Queen of Canada. They are totally unrelated. You really don't know much about Canada or our Constitution. I understand completely. That's your problem.
  2. Why should they? It's well known you would turn the country of so called freedom of religion into a Christian theocracy. What's the point.
  3. I'm not blaming Trump for anything. Any time you reduce the number of suppliers and concentrate production, you run a risk of bigger disruptions if one goes down. That concentration didn't happen under Biden, it happened over the past 50 years and every president since 1972 is responsible for doing nothing to reduce the chances of this happening. Do you blame Bush Jr for all the the events that led up to 9/11? I sure don't.
  4. You agree with them if they say anything that strokes your prejudice, otherwise they are just another bunch of Marxists in your book. Tucker is right that it is government but both you and he would dump everything that has happened over 50 years on the guy who has been in office 16 months. Where was the outrage during the 4 years Trump was in power? A plant was shut down because of possible contamination. If you want contaminated baby formula, move to China.
  5. Maybe, but the pro lifers here aren't interested in what happens to them after they are born. Nor are they interested in what happens to the women they force to carry them.
  6. Interesting how many photos you see of President Bone Spurs playing golf and tennis.
  7. Glad you have become a believer in NPR. When did that happen? As MH has already pointed out, the WIC program referred to in the article was implemented in 1972 under Nixon. Concentration of the industry has been happening over 50 years under both Democrat and Republican presidents. Another edit: If you were really concerned about a formula shortage, you would dig a little deeper than Tucker effing Carlson.
  8. The burden of proof is on Tucker. He made the accusation.
  9. Covid did Kenny in more than anything. Half of Alberta thought he was doing too much and being a tyrant (like west), the other half too little and being irresponsible. Notley picked a good time not to be Premier.
  10. The US was also notorious for engineering coups and otherwise interfering in Central American countries before Iran. They also backed the Pinochet coup in Chile.
  11. Actually he was suggesting a greater degree of violence in response to an act of violence, or do you not think a knife attack is an act of violence. It was still a dumb thing to say.
  12. He actually did and Dr. Brix looked like she just wanted to disappear. Have you ever read a label on any bottle of disinfectant that didn't say, don't take internally, or do you even read labels? What companies offered solutions that involved taking disinfectants internally?
  13. Trump suggested injecting disinfectant for Covid, FFS.
  14. Obama wasn't president when he said that but it was still a dumb thing to say.
  15. Trump was and is the king of saying dumb things. Kavanaugh lied under oath to Congress when he said as far as he was concerned Roe vs Wade was settled. You obviously like liars on supreme courts as long as they pursue your agenda.
  16. Hence the EU which is an attempt to make sure it never happens again. In spite of which, many on the right would like to see it fail.
  17. He was right. It's always but, but, Trudeau. Never been a Kenny fan but at least he has some integrity.
  18. It was a dumb thing to say but when did it ever happen? Democrats didn't sack the Capital Building with Trump, Giuliani and company egging them on.
  19. Actually Sean Connery first said it in The Untouchables 1987.
  20. US GDP per capita is #13, just below Norway. Still very good though. Canada ranks above every one of your list except the US and Germany. According to Forbes Hardly a resounding success.
  21. Kenny handled this disappointment with class. A true Trumpian would have been screaming election fraud.
  22. With the NDP having a decided lead in the polls, will a UCP that lurches farther to the right be handing them a majority?
  23. Muslims were quite tolerant of all religions until Richard III had 2700 prisoners beheaded after the siege of Acre. Saladin retaliated by executing all his Christian prisoners.
  24. Not my disappointment. Are you seriously saying the Branch Davidians, Timmothy McVeigh and the Weavers were all lefties? Just because they weren't Muslim doesn't mean the weren't disciples of the far right.
