But such squaking shouldn't be dismissed out of hand. In the broadest terms we have two real choices with climate change - try to stop it or try to adapt to it. Those who wish us to stop it would have to demonstrate that their ideas actually would.

No i wasn't offended or anything - i thought it was a fair reply, i just think that giving it some thought we should probably be equally adverse to internal and external threats

Well not really. both are unacceptable. That's like arguing what kind of gun you want to be shot to death with. (who said that?) Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety - franklin. And a wise man always controls what he can control and then worries about externalities. I can't fix what china intends but I CAN fix what our gov't intends to do about it. Giving away power to the gov't is always a questionable idea

So as long as i can brand someone's speech as being an incitement to lawlessness i can ban it?

We know. That's how you started this off. It's about what the community expects from you. I was just saying, maybe try doing better? See how that goes?

The challenge, as always, becomes who gets to decide what represents 'misinformation'. The potential for abuse there is insane. As we've seen with trudeau, having 'control' over 'misinformation' just leads to the gov't pushing it's own msiniformation. Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?

You voted for him. That's about as strong an endorsement as you can give.

That's actually pretty massive. Pledging contracts to buy doses even before it's developed frees up billions of dollars in investment and allows a company to dedicate it's people to the research risk free. And they even offered direct funding if needed. There can be little doubt that without lightspeed the vaccines would have arrived much much slower. I didn't realize he'd held campaign event in Wuhan Sounds like you need your script tweaked a little there robo-bot

So you're an !diot with nothing to contribute? Oh - wait we knew that. Why don't you at least TRY to actually read what was written and make some sort of meaningful comment?

You have absolutely no sense of humour do you. Sigh.

If you think Eyeball has a soul you may be setting yourself up for disappointment

Sorry kid. It's there in black and white. You claimed you didn't say something - you did. People can read it. I get why you're ashamed of what you said. You obvoiusly don't want to admit you support the libs and everytime someone says something negative about them you go into a big rant about how you never said you voted for them when nobody asked. So you probably did and are feeling guilty. But lying won't help. Just don't vote liberal in the future. they're bad people and you're bad for voting in favour of corruption.

So you are of the belief that round objects can't have borders for some reason? I don't think you understand how 'round' works.

nope. Anonymous sources have been around forever. There's a problem when a media outlet makes a substantial claim based on 'anonymous sources' and the source hasn't produced any evidence. Or there's evidence they're wrong but the outlet keeps insisting it's true For example - recently the cbc claimed Smith's people sent emails to the justice department accordng to an 'anonymous source'. But - cbc never saw the emails. And when an independant audit showed there WERE no emails cbc didn't back down. Well in that case it's not even that the source was anonymous that was the problem - it's that the cbc is asserting something is 'most likely true" without any evidence at all. This is similar to their 'the us republicans are funding the convoy' claim that turned out to be false. On the other thand, global's posting of the CSIS papers proving justin knew about the chinese interference was backed up by documents they'd actually obtained. So while we don't know the source, we do know the information is accurate. So complaints have more to do with the proof than the source I don't think so - i think it's illegal to leak and that's a different thing Yeah - so this is actually canada..... And here it's the libs doing it. It's always the answer for justin

of course you do. I just posted it. You claimed you didn't say such things - i've proven you have. It's all there for people to see. You want a hankie now? You seem like you're pouting.

Well if that's what we're calling facts and truth these days, sure sorry it didn't mesh with your echo chamber bias Justin will probably lose the election and then he'll be forced to stand down. And then we'll see won't we

I wish you were joking. I'm pretty sure you actually think it'll work this way and you're glad.

Well then you haven't had much luck with this whole 'thinking' thing have you.

About what you said. You claimed you never said the very things i just posted you saying Everyone can see it kiddo. It's right there. So now that i've PROVEN you're a liar ... what were you saying before about liberals and ethics? Are you now claiming you didn't KNOW it was unethical to lie? Is that why you get angry every time someone points out the libs are liars... because you feel that should be socially accepted ? You lied - i posted the proof, now everyone can see

https://www.thefp.com/p/justice-is-no-longer-blind-in-canada Equality under the law is the cornerstone of liberal democracy. But judges across the country are now factoring race into sentencing. I obtained Smith’s IRCA from Smith himself. Oddly, the four-page report cites no concrete instances of racism—no violence, no untoward remarks, no employers or schools that turned Smith down because of his skin color. Not even any microaggressions. It also fails to mention that, in a separate incident in January 2018, Smith was arrested and charged with theft, robbery, and kidnapping. What it does say is that Smith had a rough childhood and adolescence—the refugee camp in Ghana, his father’s absence, immigrating to Canada, his early run-ins with the law. It further notes that “Edward identifies as an African Canadian” who is of “Liberian heritage,” and that he has “a feeling of disconnection with his culture.” The judge apparently sympathized with Smith. In February 2020, after six months in prison, he was allowed to go free with court-appointed supervision. If he’d been white, he would have been looking at eight years behind bars. “I didn’t face racism,” Smith admitted to me in a recent phone call. He’s now a sales representative at a debt-collection company. Referring to the IRCA, Smith said, “It was my only way out of this situation. I took full advantage.” TL:DR : People who are a visible minority can get vastly reduced sentences without ever having to prove that they were discriminated against or suffered And it's leaving victims of crime horrified and feeling like they got no justice. And the instances of crime are going up. I get that people's background should be a factor when considering their sentancing. But does this go way too far? Nobody cares that a white kid was abused when they're sentencing him. I feel like this could lead to a bad end.

Nope. Only hard core left wing liberal supporters see her like that. She blew the free trade deal with the us, she blew a bunch of other trade deals - and while she was able to hang SOME of that on justin, her budgets have been horrible and largely frowned on. She should never have taken the job as finance minister. Justin's policies force her to make horrible budgets that no one is impressed with. And her Disney plus comments ruined her in the eyes of the 'average person'. that was pretty much the end of her chances at pm. And she's a terrible speaker. And like i say - even the democracy-hating liberals will have to have a leadership race, and she'd be up against people who really can talk in public. I mean freeland would be an automatic win for PP and probably a majority, so i wish it were true, but it's just not going to happen.

Yeah thats pretty much the same as selling the country's democracy to the chinese and passing totalitarian censorship laws.

Well that's true

Easiest thing in the world kiddo. Here's your exchange with me: Where you claim i made assumptions about who you voted for and your morality ( all i'd said to that point is LIBERALS ) And here's where you did it with him. And my reply: So there you go. You're a liar. Plain and simple. I'm sure you'll now attempt some species of justification = "oh well it's not REALLY lying because today is opposite day" or some such stupidity. But - sorry kiddo, you did it, you denied it, now you're shown to be dishonest. But hey - go ahead and try to weasel out of it now, Show everyone what a dishonest poster you are.

They are related - but different. One is the disintegration of the social fabric. That is a result of justin spreading division and hatred as a political tool, which drives up anger and discontent in the country to record heights, combined with new laws that allow violent repeat criminals back on the streets, and a few other factors. Police aren't enforcing the laws as much - what is the POINT in arresting a violent offender when you KNOW he'll be back on the street laughing at you that afternoon. Recruitment and retention are down in the police forces and the people who DO sign up are the kind who generally speaking aren't getting into it for the right reasons, But the housing crisis will lead to actual organized blowback. You'll get demonstrations an eventually riots and civil unrest. You'll get people demanding that other people's property be taken away and given to them. And there just won't be solutions.
