What ally will Trump go to War with next?
herbie replied to NAME REMOVED's topic in Canada / United States Relations
Elon's sizing up the UK for him. -
In the land of the brave, the Fanta Fascist is cowering from Jag's kirpan. oh.. and May's fishwife screeching

Claiming he is joking is denying the Fanta Fascist is clearly suffering from dementia. Someone about to take over the White House does not "joke' about taking over or buying their allies land by armed or economic force. Goes beyond simple boorish behaviour. His supporters are ashamed they chose senile dementia over Biden's forgetfullness and are simply so damn stubborn they can't admit it. But then again they're the same ones who think tariffs will make things less expensive...... I wish I could see their faces when they tell their own kids they must go pick lettuce to pay off their student loans. BTW the tariff on EVs was complete suckage to the US overloards. We could considered going full Aussie and stop subsidizing domestic auto production. Then given the choice of a $25,000 EV that costs $2 to charge or a $75,000 US pickup that get 15 mpg we'd cut CO2 faster than Norway without need of either a carbon tax nor EV buyer subsidies. Hurt the US far more than us.

Are Nfld and Quebec Sustainable?
herbie replied to August1991's topic in Provincial Politics in Canada
Perhaps we should sell provinces that aren't "sustainable" to the USA? Quebec, the Atlantics , Sask and the Territories. Then we could all be happy that govt was run like a 'real' business. -
You have been TOLD by the Trumpsuckers and AxeDUHtaxers. Now OBEY and vote for what's in your worst interests so you can be as miserable as they are. Schadenfreude and all that.

A Macbook Pro Air, eh? Upgraded from Windows 97 did you?

Boor. Pitiful that the man pretending to be a leader can't rise above that. But of course those choosing a rapist liar with a criminal history as leader will overlook being an insensitive lout as a minor transgression.

You have to scroll down a bit to see them. Scroll wheels on the mouse are too modern and progressive for Dougie. He still likes his 9 pin serial one with a cord on his 286.

Never mind the potholes, look at that foreigner picking your blueberries! Never mind reading your pay stub, the guy in the next cubicle is allowed to have an ear ring! And soon you too will believe you can buy a house in West Vancouver if only we cut pensions, got rid of universal health care, the CBC and cut corporate taxes.

Today mustve of been rough for Kamala Harris
herbie replied to Fluffypants's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Yes some of the locals seem surprised that the confirmation went normally as it always has except for Trump's one assholy display of storming the Capitol. Completely violated their perception that they are the true patriots. -

herbie replied to Fluffypants's topic in Federal Politics in the United States
Why was it rough? Cuz she didn't whine and carry on like a baby, foment a riot to storm the Capitol or simply deny the fact for5 years? Goddam revisionist asses. -
Spoken like a true dinosaur, mouthing the attitudes we heard around the dinner table in 1972. Usually from the weird uncles that told us Mussolini made the trains run on time and how BC Premier Dave Barrett was 'one clever Jew". As we're all aware there are many fellow retrogrades that can't cope with modern life and praise the 'good old days' of hangings, strap, the Lord's Prayer and Narional Anthems in school, when slapping your kids and wives was acceptable. before they "let" Natives vote or drink in bars, 'allowed' gays to NOT be jailed and sent women in pants home from work or school. Oh yes, it's just so awful having to put up with someone's accent or turban instead of your own Mom or Grqmpa's German, Polish or Scot one at home every day. And dressing like a normal person when the Minister comes for dinner and SHE says the Grace beforehand. Yeah dealing with smog and being told not to pick the salmonberries in the alley because of the lead exhaust, septic tanks and party lines, dumping used oil in the ditches were so much better.

Good God some of you people act like if they restricted immigration to solely from the UK the planes are going to unload WASPs to fulfill your fantasies. It's 2025 well past the day you could look at someone and say they're this nationality and this religion. When I was in school in Burnaby 20-25% of the atudents were Chinese. Only they weren't. They were as Canadian as the rest of us, born here. The "immigrant' was the kid from Glasgow who's parents moved here when he was in Grade 5. Like my 1st wife did. When my kids went to school in the Fraser Valley, the same applied to the 10 or15% that were South Asian, born here or came as babes, Get used to it already. We're better for that fact.

Population of Metro areas in Canada
herbie replied to NAME REMOVED's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Does that mean the CPC proudly has zero interest in populating the other 99% of the country? The point was that over half the population lives in 9 major centres and only Edmonton is even considered 'northern'. Sweet F*** All to do with immigration but that gets mentioned by a resident redneck. -
On the contrary, when you pushed the landing gear down lever the plane didn't argue and make excuses about it for weeks. When we were kids my Dad thought the whole Mr Spock concept on TOS was stupid and referred to him as Leo Nimrod. Joked that Capt. Kirk was more likely to see gremlins out the window of the Enterprise than pointy eared Vulcans inside .

Its Official - trudeau is gone and the race is on!
herbie replied to CdnFox's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
No she's not. She was a Liberal that led the conservatives when that party name was dirt in BC. She's unknown to the ROC which is why she probably will be last. Besides, she wasn't a bow down and surrender money which is why the ultra-right on this forum would hate her guts. She is a fresh undirtied face federally that might appeal to many. -
Breaking News: Trudeau expected to resign Monday.
herbie replied to NAME REMOVED's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Interesting graph, But I think the level of non-information is the real problem. if the Tories would evolve past their reliance on simple chants and spell out their platform and intents, it would scare away a huge chunk of their support. 😝 BTW called out exactly what would go down didn't I?
