  1. I am a humanist and not an environmentalist. People over plants. Just because there are plants where there are people does not mean we stop development and building homes for those in need. Our needs are more important. You want plants, move up north, lots that no one wants.
  2. Well, the College of Physicians and Surgeons of BC and Alberta disagree also and pulled his licence to practice medicine. College of Physicians and Surgeons in BC and Alberta agree with the judge.
  3. Bottom line is the green belts are for future use, for whatever reason. The Auditor said a lot but proved nothing. It is easy to be a critic...whine and complain but never propose solutions. Also every piece of dirt can m]be claimed to be "ecologically important". It depends who is claiming and who needs that land and for what reason. Environmentalists, to me, are blowhards that cannot find real work. I am a realist that has a desire to deal with things today. Not philosophically but realistically.
  4. That all goes without saying but...to make statements without proposing or planning or indicating such development is just pi$$ing into the wind. Any politician saying something will occur 20 or 30 years in the future is just blowing smoke up our a$$es.
  5. Great! That will double the problem!!!!
  6. dougie, dougie dougie, posting pictures of murders and a soldier that shot one of his own and you defending them, only drives you further down the loser hole. Stop dougie, you are making a mockery of the Army and there are so many great soldiers.
  7. So, 3000 acres is 4.6875 sq miles in 2 separate and far from each other. The whole green belt for housing issue is old and ongoing. Some is taken, some is added. https://www.newmarkettoday.ca/local-news/ontario-opening-up-parts-of-york-region-greenbelt-for-housing-6059028
  8. Provincial. Well, the land is there and what is it there for? To be used in the future, when needed. So,a tiny part in 2 separate areas is now needed.
  9. You post photos of 2 discredited soldiers? One that attempted suicide for torture and murder and the other that was courts marshalled for shooting a fellow soldier and for wearing an Adolf Hitler shirt and making a nazi salute and??? These are you heros? You embarrass yourself more and more.
  10. So "think of them as humanity's offspring - that we invest all of our labour and resources in to ensure survival of the species. Corruption is probably the most efficient way of doing so." is everybody? All people? You have lost me now. Green belt intrusion. 14 0f 15 recommendations accepted. Minister of housing chief of staff? Don't know where you are anymore
  11. I think what happens is the military gets $xx funds and then prioritizes them. The Army, Navy and Air Force then takes its share and prioritizes what to do with that. The the government tells the military is must do something, be it Aid to Civil Power or NATO or UN support and the military has to take that money from within....then the military has to get the money from somewhere and you can imagine what falls by the wayside. Well, you don't need to imagine, you felt the lack of maintenance, upgrades or procurement of routine supplies and requirements. Major crown projects and procurement comes out of different pots (called votes) and cannot be touched for operations..
  12. dougie, just stop. You are a loser and proving it every time you post. No one cares about your repeated self promotion. You are wasting my and everyones time.
  13. The Military tried to develop it's own procurement department about 15 years ago but it did and could not find or develop or man the resources needed to do the job. It just settled for local procurement allowance with a certain dollar figure (cannot remember what it is now).
  14. The unfortunate thing with Generals is that they appoint themselves to the rank and positions. Generals make a list of Colonels and then decide which one they want in their club and then tell the Minister of Defence who get the rank. They are now 100% political. As for procurement. The military (Army Navy or Air Force) put together a requirement and spec it out. It goes to the various ministries and they decide how much they can get for themselves. Things change. A Request for Proposal; goes out and all companies that want to bid say so. We then have meetings with all those companies. They then tell us what is realistic and not. They submit bids with costs. Now back to the ministries and whomever the procurement is for. Decisions on cost and what can we add or what do they have to compromise. Someone is selected. Then the fun begins. There has not been on procurement where there has been no requirement/scope creep. The Military seems to think that once the contract has been let, it opens a door to get what it really wants. Little things pile up and get bigger and bigger and more expensive and take longer and longer. The truly sad thing is we do it to ourselves.It happens all the time. I have linked the supply manual several times. It does not matter if pencils or fighters are procured, the process is the same.
  15. More garbage and more useless videos. Stay away dougie, you are a scourge and embarrassment to the Military
  16. Now you are talking about politicians, not the top 1% earners.
  17. Solution to what??? Stop making babies? LOL Well, as i said, I agree that the housing ministers office is and in particular his chief of staff (an unelected employee of the minister) should be investigated... and with all the pressure, still may be. Lets stop with the 1% stuff. That only shows your envy of what they make or do. They are the ones that create employment so you can buy a house or food or cars or clothing. They are the ones who took the risks while you worked for them and sat in the homes they built. The rest of us are beholding to them that they keep us employed and not just shut down, live off their assets and put you out on the street. That is one way to look at it...just like your take is another.
  18. No, even the medical society cited his issues "A Discipline Committee Panel will be appointed to conduct a hearing to inquire into Dr. Nagase’s alleged misconduct, namely that, on or about December 9, 2021, while a registrant, Dr. Nagase contravened standards imposed under the Health Professions Act, including but not limited to the Canadian Medical Association’s Code of Ethics and Professionalism, by making public addresses regarding the COVID-19 pandemic and related issues that included his making misleading, incorrect, or inflammatory statements about vaccinations, treatments, and measures for COVID-19, including publicly expressing that Ivermectin is a safe and effective treatment for COVID-19; publicly expressing that the COVID-19 vaccinations are dangerous, or making otherwise misleading, incorrect, or inflammatory statements; and making at least some of these public statements while appearing in front of effigies of political figures who were hung from nooses. " And judge deemed him a "crackpot". "doctor Daniel Nagase ruled to be frivoulous, vexatious and an abuse of process" and "He has frequently repeated false and misleading information about vaccines, spreading untrue rumours of a spike in stillbirths at Lions Gate Hospital caused by the shot and giving an anti-vaccine speech in front of hanged effigies of B.C. politicians at the legislature in Victoria." and "he stood in the hallway and tried to address the judge by speaking loudly through an open door, despite a plexiglass barrier and about 15 metres separating the two."
  19. Who's and what medical discretion? The guy lost his licence to practice. He was discredited by the Judge.. He was even kept out of the courtroom. Did you read the article?? So, what discretion?
  20. Does not help the anti vaxx cause either
  21. Freeland has no chance to win Canada. Maybe the iberal party but the rest of Canada sees her as Justins hand puppet. Now, Melanie Joly, a good looking , soft talking, eyelash fluttering, blonde would just be the one liberals would and maybe Canada takes on.... Oh and she is from Quebec because we like Quebecers for PM's LOL
  22. I don't put much faith in polls so far away from elections. Daily news cycles can affect polls dramatically. Look at the last 3 polls just before elections, they all showed cons in the lead. I must admit, Trudeau is not popular and may very well have led his last government but polls now only are the flavour of the day and tomorrow may be a different flavour.
