  1. 51 people deciding to kill the other 49 is also perfectly democratic. And you can blame the Federal govt for putting in that anti-democratic clause in in the first place. One province deciding to do something regardless of what the other 9 -plus 3 territories want is anything but democracy.
  2. And there was a milkman, a breadman, an eggman and a Chinese guy that drove a 1930s truck through the streets selling fresh vegetables. Fuller brush man and the Avon lady. Mom sent you to the store with a quarter to get a quart of milk and you got 6c to buy candy for you * your sisters. You could buy the world's shittiest built gas guzzling air polluting American car for $2000. Then you ran into evolution and just could not adapt, keeping your last row in the class "the teachers are all stoopid". "it's someone else's fault". "I shouldn't have to", "they won't give me a job" attitude intact. Let alone this snivelling whine that 40 million people is why you can't buy the same plot of land the other 39,999,999 people will bid on. The epitome of coddled, lazy, unadventurous, entitled malcontents or what? Self defined 'conservatives' that want the govt less involved in their lives but want them to control prices, production, 'purity' of the population and regulate thoughts of "others"?
  3. And I could buy a glass of beer then for 20c then too. What's that got to do with it? BTW average homes in Burnaby were about $32,000 when I graduated in 1970. In 1983 they were $65,000+ out in Langley, and 40 years later they're $350+ as far away as Prince George. No you're not gonna afford a home in Vancouver or Toronto or even Calgary unless you bought it long ago, Try Spuzzum
  4. Quit confusing the guy with actual facts. He's so deluded he thinks facts are lies and the shit that spews from Trump's gob is truth. Donald is counting on such people that can be fooled all of the time.
  5. You live in the best country on Earth. Sounds like many of you were so spoiled by that you don't know it. It used to be better, my ass.
  6. Voted once and there were signs outside and inside on the walls of the polling place, plus a notice right at the station you marked your ballot "this guy is dead, died after the ballots were printed". He came in 2nd. Last election we got 2 balots. One was for City Council & Mayor and the School Board was the other. One blue, one green went in different boxes. Both could have easily been on one ballot.
  7. Says the man supporting the guy stalling the bill that would fund the way to do such a thing......
  8. No you're not. Illegitimate ones are refused. You're claiming they're not. Along with not being a Judge or having the qualifications to be on the deciding board that you know better than those that do. You just don't "like" it that your opinion is ignored, uninformed, wrong and hateful.
  9. FTFY And you're under the mistaken impression Canada's "creation" is over and done. MCGA, eh? It used to be better....
  10. The Reverse Gish Gallop theory says you shouldn't reply point by point because if you make so much as a spelling mistake on one single point, the galloper will claim you lost the entire argument. Just as Gallopers claim if you fail to reply to so much as one single point they'll also claim you lost the entire argument. Same as if you rebut every single point perfectly, they'll claim that a specific point was about something entirely different and you're stupid or a leftist or a minority-lover and therefore you again lost the entire argument.
  11. Nice try. We're Canadians, not Brits. It's only a few old white Tory toadies that claim we must cling to tradition over using our own identity and pull shit like putting back the "Royal" into everything. Just as this thread demonstrates. Moving on equates to erasure in their tiny minds.
  12. Good drugs, eh?
  13. That person had a reason that was found valid. As for the rest of your fairy tale there are direct flights from Mexico to places like Prince George even. Some of those 'other Central American countries' are not listed as "safe" countries. Ever even heard of refugees from Costa Rica or Belize? "Immigrants" do not just come here and then apply. You sound like the typical rightwing blockhead that cannot distinguish between immigrants and refugees (let's just call them all 'illegals' when immigrants are not). Your proposals would work but so would machine gunning them if they approached the border just only one step shy of n East German border guard solution. Reneging on international treaties, closing the border and refusing refugees is a reprehensible idea.
  14. already do alreaady doing Hmm. You DO come up with the most deplorable suggestions.
  15. As if the idea that banning puberty blockers until people have already gone through puberty makes any sense either.... or politicians overruling patients choices supported by both doctors and the parents too.
  16. Well that was because MAGA's are so damn scared of a Woman President they elected and actual; c_nt instead.
  17. Except you forgot things like Blaxkberry and many others in your rant. I'm not talking about size or rank, I am pointing out that things would be far worse if govt controlled production and distribution. Like housing - do you actually want govt built Soviet stlye blockhouses on your street? Foolish enough to believe that if taxes and building red tape are removed the builders will sell for below fair market value? That if they were forced to by law, it wouldn't affect your home's market value?
  18. Mass protest? If the guy with the spiky white hair and leather jacket and the Lesbian Mothers Against The Budget weren't there I call bullshit. edit: and the girl called Tzeporah cuz "Debby" is just too "common" for hogging the spotlight...
  19. And the winner is the 326th repeat of the 3rd episode of that show they aired before Covid, before the writer's strike, before the actor's strike... 2018 or something. Documentary Award to How It's Made" wooden shoes, spats, mustache wax, for being repeated every three hours every day, all week, since 2003
  20. WTF has God got to do with conducting a ballot? Do you believe ballots aren't trustworthy now so therefore it must be true? Is your faith so blind you hope that you're not promoting the words of the AntiChrist?
  21. because that is ALL they can do... dabble. Or do you want the govt to do: control the means of production and distribution? THAT is the dictionary definition of communism, not take away your guns and the right to 'free speech' and repression of minority rights. Yet so many posters here are screaming for more govt control over the economy, unable to understand that is what they claim to hate.
  22. The dreams of the stupid on display here in this thread
  23. Australians upgrade old iMiEV (called worst EV ever made). Double the battery and range and keep more than a decade old EVs out of the landfill.
  24. For that matter when was the last time you heard of an Antifa or BLM protest, but these 'freedumb to do only what I agree with' ppl still carry on like their city's under siege right now. And those Palestine ones, why they've blocked the odd road for a whole hour or so sometimes. Punish punish and punish more!
