Who said it’s ok? Do you think Canada is one of the wealthiest nations on earth? Who do you think is wealthier?

So because there is poverty in Canada, that means we aren’t a wealthy nation?

Do you think people in the 3rd world should be left to starve? We’re one of the richest nations on earth. For you not to see that makes me question your actual sanity.

Repeat it all you want. You’ll still be wrong.

Why don’t they ever want to elect a government? I think PP is really happy to be in opposition.

Wouldn’t it make more sense that they aren’t mentioned because they didn’t exist?

Is everyone here with whom you disagree a troll?

As I predicted, PP found someone in a safe seat in Alberta to resign so he could run. https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/article/conservative-mp-gives-up-seat-for-pierre-poilievre-to-run-in-byelection/

Do Con supporters on this forum even know that an opposition leader that has a seat in the House will need to be selected? On a related noted, Poilievre has been told to move out. https://pressprogress.ca/pierre-poilievre-no-longer-entitled-to-live-at-public-mansion-privy-council-office/

You’re right. That was a bad example. There was trade reaching to India at the time. Why would the bible include names of countries that didn’t exist yet?

Pointing out your hypocrisy is not trolling.

What’s more likely… that highly respected, longtime contributor and past Mod @Michael Hardner is a troll? Or that you are having trouble justifying your positions and are hiding behind ridiculous accusations?

So tell us…. why should indigenous people be overruled by a majority, but not Albertans?

I don’t get the joke.

So the majority can overrule indigenous people, but the majority in Canada can’t overrule Alberta? Sounds like you have a hypocrisy problem.

Are you drunk or high, or somehow impaired? You said the Constitution has clauses that could be used for a province to separate. I showed how that was completely ignorant. Now you’re saying I said something else when I quoted the Clarity Act on how it has to happen. Go back and read the posts when you sober up.

No. I quoted the Clarity Act on how it could be done legally. 🤪 …an amendment to the Constitution of Canada would be required for any province to secede from Canada, which in turn would require negotiations involving at least the governments of all of the provinces and the Government of Canada.

You don’t seem to be able to read.

No. Of course they don’t. There would need to be a constitutional amendment, and that would require both houses of government to agree and 7 of 10 provinces with 50% of the population to ratify. So the rest of Canada has the ultimate say. https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-31.8/section-3.html?txthl=terms#:~:text=3 (1) It is recognized,would require negotiations involving at 3 (1) It is recognized that there is no right under the Constitution of Canada to effect the secession of a province from Canada unilaterally and that, therefore, an amendment to the Constitution of Canada would be required for any province to secede from Canada, which in turn would require negotiations involving at least the governments of all of the provinces and the Government of Canada.

You and @blackbird need to go back to grade 10 Social Studies class. I can’t even believe Canadians could be this ignorant! Where did you get the idea that the Constitution allows for secession??? https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-31.8/section-3.html?txthl=terms#:~:text=3 (1) It is recognized,would require negotiations involving at 3 (1) It is recognized that there is no right under the Constitution of Canada to effect the secession of a province from Canada unilaterally and that, therefore, an amendment to the Constitution of Canada would be required for any province to secede from Canada, which in turn would require negotiations involving at least the governments of all of the provinces and the Government of Canada.

Yeah, I’m tricking you into saying the myriad of incorrect things you say. 🙄

You’re so book-smart! You still think indigenous people are under the authority of provincial governments?

You said Alberta would decide. Did you realize how silly that was?

If it’s not the deputy leader, Melissa Lantsman, that would be quite a slap in the face to her. Make her deputy leader and strip it away when the time comes? Ouch. I don’t think it will be Lantsman. Scheer? 🥱 Thoughts?
