  1. Oh Jeez and I thought conservatives were stuck in 1953. Now they've progressed to 2015 an Hillary's e-mails. By 2147 they'll believe in Climate change too!. My sincerest apologies. [/s]
  2. It's children that would rather honk horns and rant and blame anyone else for their self caused problems. Us adults went to work and fed our families. And got the jab to ensure we'd be there to keep feeding them. But we'll keep up this freedumb, sovereign person, someone's trying to 'control' me bullshit, won't we?
  3. Yes. Everyone else is insane. We're being trolled by 21st Century Schizoid Man. Ba-da-da-da-dah!
  4. Obviously it was more important HOW it got passed than IF it got passed. You just stated exactly that.
  5. White conservatives remain completely unaware that when Reagan banned welfare funding of abortion back in the 1980s, that the majority of people denied access lived in the inner cities - and that those unwanted kids have now grown up living disadvantaged and some have passed that on to the next generation. Drugs, crime, violence yet all they can see is the colour of their skin as the affected were predominantly non-white. They're also unaware that this will continue as they refuse to believe in economic class structures, systematic racism and anything that indicates the fact whites are wealthier per capita therefore able to easily go somewhere else to obtain an abortion. It's only going to get even worse and more divided for those stuck in an 'America is a white society' mindset.
  6. Imagine how much evidence you'd have to submit to get a warrant to search the home of an ex-President. Imagine how much of an utter lowlife douchebag you'd have to be when you spent years unsuccessfully trying to get the DOJ and FBI to harass your opponents and then claim it was Biden's call they came for you.
  7. It don't matter in the black or white of the extreme right even if you don't like Trudeau, have and never would vote for him if you don't join the chorus of hatred, you're the enemy. Like you can call someone a fascist dictator all you like, but can't explain how the leader of a minority gov't can be one. You can sit there all you like and believe Justin just spouts rules at whim as it only shows your own ignorance of both fact and how our political system works. Just as pointing to desecrating war memorials, Terry Fox statues and disturbing the peace for weeks on end was 'only a few'. You can continue to insist the protest was about freedom in spite of all evidence then and until now it was an anti-Trudeau, anti-gov't rally. A "Diet Pepsi" version of Jan 6th Go ahead, continue to believe you have the support of more than a small number, that making sure the most extremist Conservative leader will be the best. Trudeau won't need to crown himself Emperor, he'll get democratically elected forever.
  8. Breaking News: Trump’s personal library just burned down The fire consumed both books and he hasn’t even finished colouring the second one yet.
  9. Don't worry. The GOP at least made sure insulin hawkers could keep hosing diabetics. And made them refer to it as an Inflation Bill so a couple Dem climate deniers could be fooled. Maybe you should invest in roubles or renminbi if the dollar turns to shit
  10. WTF are we wasting time with one stubborn recalcitrant ox for? If you so much as point out that acceptance isn't the same as encouragement he'll go off on a dictionary discussion on the meaning of the word "as" and call YOU the deflector. Time to let him live in his Old Testament fantasy and move on to discussion with people capable of rational discussion.
  11. Still waiting to hear how it's all Biden's fault, asides from the usual repitition cheapspeak. Trump hands out trillions in incentives, that's ok. Biden does and everything's all his fault. No one can even suggest an alternative once it's all ended, because even they know they were all for worse for the economy. Just think, if we'd elected O'Toole they'd be just now finishing the list of everyone who didn't qualify for a Covid benefit and the paper cheques would be coming out by mail in time for this Christmas.
  12. Well after the Kansas vote, it sure looks like GOP picked the wrong group to pander to, doesn't it?
  13. Only if the mob is a significant voting bloc. Not just a clot of loud morons who think they are.
  14. The US has backed down on it's EV grants, EVs built in Canada and Mexico are now included in the program. Someone may have pointed out that it was a gross violation of the Trade agreement. Feel free to whine about Biden's wishy-washy reversal typical Libbie policy of not sticking to your ideas no matter how wrong they are...
  15. Doing anything at all that they don't like. Same as their definition of "leftist"
  16. It's the Fraser Institute - if we listened to them we'd be still in a recession since the 1980s when they began. Haven't issued a single thing that would benefit taxpayers. workers or consumers since the day they were founded.
  17. We don't want it either. Nor do we want a woman wrinkly as our own scrote.
  18. Texas Court Rules 9 Year Old Must Bring Alien To Term If she was impregnated by an alien, that is God's Will and a preborn baby is a life, says Supreme Court Judge Luther P. Butticks
  19. And you're saying Biden is the cause of inflation? Do tell us how. We're ignorant Libbies who know The Orange Asshole would be well on his way to turning the USA into a World Class Shithole if he really won the election. THe alternative to Biden has ZERO to offer.
  20. I will hereby attempt to correct my pronunciation on any further texts. That one would stoop to such absurdity proves they already lost the argument. Give it up. While you're in that same dictionary note that tolerance and promotion do not mean the same thing. I'm used to that. 30 years in customer service, the bulk of people think 'cheap' and 'good' mean the same thing.
  21. Cross the Canada/US border wither way with pot and you'll get busted too. Although for personal amounts the Canada Border Agency should just take iust take it away and force them to sit through a lecture on the common decency to buy it when they get to Canada. It's like smuggling coffee into Columbia...
  22. Not ranting out, just pointing out the old Conservative trick of replacing tax with fees and pretending you have a choice in paying them. Certainly a less serious error than picking up one single op-ed that was carried everywhere and pretending it's news and therefore fact. Like that more millenials than usual took out Tory memberships therefore millenials must be rushing to that side of the political spectrum. There's no membership drive/leadership going on for Libs, NDP or Greens so how do you arrive at that conclusion?
  23. Old school business types? Yeah they'll save us alright. The ones still stocking Diet Coke and DIet Pepsi when 1/3 of the population is diabetic and they haven't noticed in all these years men don't order diet pop in public? Two companies that make two products essentially the same for years now? Duh it worked for Chevy and GMC.... (uhh what happened to Mercury and Fargo?) The ones so technologically incompetent they buy cheap tech that doesn't work or hire the most expensive where the techs customize software that holds the buyers to ransom? That sold us until saturated with hi-fi, then stereo, then quadrophonic, then digital... VHS, CDTV, DVD, until you're like me with a $400 BluRay that hasn't even been turned on in 5 years? Who sold us cable and satellite with optional "bundles" and are now doing the same with streaming? Gotta have Hulu for this Disney for that, Netflix for another, Prime for a couple more shows. They know how to milk you, they're too stodgy and stubborn to know how to do it efficiently so you don't know you're being hosed. Can barely play their own game.
  24. I watch news on CTV mainly. It's not as good as CBC's coverage, less in depth coverage just 60 second highlights of more stuff and often wastes time on stupid meaningless crap like Hollywood controversies. I watch CTV for more news content, if I'm interested I follow it up at CBC online. And BBC online for events in Europe, Africa & Asia. In most smaller areas CTV and Global are on free OTA only because they had to to compete with CBC who was already there. Hell where I live CBC decided not to 'spend all that money' during the digital conversion and went off the air here, forcing the community broadcast society to pick it up and relay it. So that's my point, it's now funded through another grant from the same public trough in the end. Hell the CBC could broadcast 4 stations on that old digital channel for the same cost, but guess what? No corporate station would share. None. No way. Just like a bunch of GOP Senators, not gonna cooperate even if it costs us way more just to spite their faces. Canada's not big enough to have a PBS, we've got KNOW here in BC and it's damn good but no way it can scrounge the money to deliver news content or fund it's own productions.
  25. OMG you missed the point entirely. A fee is a tax, but some will argue it's discretionary. You can avoid the tax by not having radio/tv, which is part of my previous post about people whining about paying for rural Canada. Just like you could avoid the old toll on the Port Mann by not going to work anymore if you lived in Surrey! Or on the old Coquihalla Hwy by using the out of the way old Fraser Canyon when you went for your cancer treatments. It's the tired old American 'why should I have to pay for someone else' argument used against CBC.
