Well, certainly within the boundries of the behavior of our political leaders if nothing else

I don't think that's possible. Without going into 1000 words, basically anyone who has the balls, the drive and the willingness to do what it takes to get to the top is going to be somewhat dirty. Good clean honest people go do something else. So - instead i think the answer is to try to find someone who's dirty for positive reasons so to speak. Or at least reasons you can live with. Harper was a good example - as cuthroat as they come but wanted to be pm for reasons we could live with. And he did a good job. Layton would have been another example, even if you don't like the man's poltiics. There are others. The problem is that the lib party has been around so long and has been so corrupt that in order to climb to the top in that party you HAVE to support corruption and being willing to accept it, too many of the party's mp's and officials are in on it. The lib party really needs to get blown up completely like the old PC was and rebuilt from scratch.

Well it wasn't ALWAYS this way - it USED to be that real estate developers were basically punished for building for future needs, they were only able to build for today's needs. So in a growing population that was not great but it was still manageable. Basically now they're only financially allowed to provide for YESTERDAY'S needs. Which means the situation is now getting worse and will continue to do so as long as there is ANY population growth. The population would need to shrink for things to get better and shrinking populations have significant problems of their own. So the challenge is that if we don't get at least back to providing for today's needs the kids may find that scrimping and saving doesn't cut it. They may have to go to alternate solutions like living in rv's on the street or the like.

So you don't need to do the thing you're actually doing. Gotcha And you wonder why no one respects you It's a mystery!

Sure kiddo What was that about going into hysterics trying to avoid your mistakes?

ROFLMAO - i'm literally replying to a post where you admitted you knew what i was talking about. Everyone knows kiddo. When you get caught doing something you go back and change your post to pretend it didn't happen. You're that kind of person But to be honest looking at people's comments everyone knew you were a liar and dishoenst person long before then. So i doubt it changed anyone's opinion of you. So, when you claim you own your mistakes we ALL know that's a complete lie. You will go to great lengths if you can to deny your mistakes. As i suspect your next post is about to do again But - we all know you and what you do.

I would argue that really there is no great divide - there is only a great divider. We all have differences, within the cities or without. THere's poor in both places, there are those who can't afford what the 'climate change' fight is bringing,etc. Our politiicans however find those differences and then weaponize them for political capital and power. The reason that the rural people will suffer more is because politicians do some math and realize that nobody in the vote rich city with tonnes of seats up for grabs is going to see the rural people suffering, so they tell the urban people that rural people are just too stupid and they're "hicks" and we should just go ahead with what we the enlightened KNOW to be correct and they'll figure it out on their own in time. THey do that with east vs west as well, gun owners and non gun owners, religious vs non, vaxxed vs unvaxxed. Etc etc. The only reason we have actual divides is because that's what our politicians want there to be. That's why they call them "wedge" issues.

Which is why the rest of us wind up having to live with their crap.

So you admit there was the one well glad we got that out of the way (gotcha ! ) So yeah - you're the kind of guy who'll go to THOSE extremes, So for SURE you're all about the hysteria But i see you're settling into your new self appointed job as a grammar nazi nicely at least

Sure - thats why i said they'd have had to target the brit navy, especially destroyers, earlier on. It would have been very difficult by the time hitler realized britian wasn't going to cave The problems were far from unsolvable. They just didn't try. They knew if they went to war with poland that france would declare war and fight, and they planned accordingly. Voila - victory. They knew that england would declare war - but BELIEVED they would make peace. So they didn't try to plan. And that was a problem. But they absolutely could have. Yeah... fun topic tho (and back on ground i have a little expertise in ) we should do that as a thread one of these days - the 3 or 4 pivotal points in the war and could they have reasonably gone differently and why they didn't. Or something. Well if history is true to form here, then one of three things will happen: 1 - somehow his forces gain successes that they can then reasonably declare as a win and he saves face and this ends. 2- This stays in stalemate forever considering the ukrainians don't seem willing to ever back down and eventually the strain on the russian economy and people becomes serious 3 - There's a successful counter offensive and at some point he starts to lose. For two and three there historically comes a point where it's just not possible to hide the fact you're not winning. So how does putin react in that case? When it gets harder and harder to convince him there's any victory, and worse the people are getting upset or his forces in the field are being pushed back and may actually be driven out? Start shooting commanders? What do you think we'd be able to see to suggest he's reaching that point.

You would think that intuitively but unfortunately no. It would help prevent it from getting worse in the SHORT term but wouldn't resolve it and the benefits would only last a few years. The reason for this is the way our systems are currently set up and operating the real estate construction will ALWAYS lag need. So if we slow population growth there will be a natural slowing of building which will happen a short time later. There are a number of things which will need to change before the problem can be solved, and every year we wait we get further behind, meaning it'll take longer to get back to sanity.

Oh look. Another lefty who has to redefine what other people say before he can make an argument. Yawn.

If your argument is that 'if gov't wasn't so stupid then it would be less stupid", then yes

Yeah, you know... it's not an organization, it's a movement. Like a bowel movement, but with terrorists. That totally makes it better.

Do you think it makes any difference? Supporting a violent terrorist movement is somehow better than supporting a violent terrorist organization?

Wow - still hugging that mirror i see Nobody believes you kiddo. Look around, everyone here makes fun of you and you radical bullcrap at one point or another. Sorry to see that caused you some emotional damage But denial won't help. Basically you're just a punching bag people here use for amusement. Nobody takes you seriously And why would they, You lie constantly about things that are easily verifiable, you constantly attack the jews, virtually all your arguments require you to rewrite what the person said.. you're a joke. You obviously don't even MEAN to be taken seriously - To the point where i genuinely do wonder if you're a false flag. account. The 'stupid' is just so over the top.

I specifically said they could do that now - so basically you feel the need to lie and be dishonest to try to make your point. And in fact they could vote before 1951. Not that they paerticularly wanted to or asked to. But there were various rules (actually there were for everyone). but there was never a time i'm aware of that first nations people could not vote at all. It was just very difficult in the beginning - you had to be a lawyer or the like Which some did become but obviously it was rare. And john a was going to make it legal for all first natiosn everywhere without condition till the uprising happened. THen it was legal for first nations in the east but not the rebellious west. And any first nations serving in the military during the wars could vote automatically. And it was a liberal - wilfried laurier (yes the same one who ignored the damning report about res schools and buried it) who set it back to the early conditions where you had to be a lawyer etc. He thought the first nations would vote conservative. Soo.. not exactly true. A first nations person absolutely could walk off the reserves, become "enfranchised", and vote and have a business or go to school wherever he wanted etc. But even ON the reserves they got steel tools and weapons, they got advanced medicine they got textiles and gear that made their lives a thousand times better. You have no idea how something as simple as a copper pot makes ALL the flipping difference. So - once again you prove you don't really know the history here. I told you who. Smallpox was first introduced into the americas by the Caribbeans. Not the europeans. Waves of it would show up later from europeans and russians and chinese - it made it's way around. But - if you think it was canadian settlers who introduced it you were wrong,. Both of those are flat out lies in Canada. In canada most of the first nations followed the caribou and still do. This isn't america. And the salmon on the west coast have been very strong for generations. More recently the stocks have suffered a small amount (first nations overfishing has been thoguth to be partly responsible along with climate change,) but the first nations still fish them plenty. I drive by a first nations fish processing plant regularly So more lies. That's american. This is C.A,N.A.D.A Buy a freakin' map and read a book You've shown quite clearly you're an uneducated sack of shit who virtue signals pretending to stand up for first nations without having done a single drop of homework. NOTHING you've said has turned out to be true,

Virtually all the ones raised. You refuse to address them and either dismiss them as somehow being nazi propaganda OR you do the "what you REALLY mean is" and then substitute your own discussion points and ignore what was raised. You think we don't notice? Nobody believes you "what you REALLY mean is... " Sigh - told ya

By saying that - but supporting rioting and proudly promoting the name of terrorists. And then pretending not to understand ';)

I don't recall you even saying that. truth be told i don't read all your blather. But i don't think there's a single person here other than crackho who thinks you do any kind of good work for the left And the constant jew hating is a bit of a giveaway - it's common knowledge that the left is seen to hate the jews and you lean into that just a LITTLE too hard No, but we all know that's not going to stop you from pretending I'ts just another for m of "so what you REALLY mean is... " - at the end of the day you can't address people's poitns so you HAVE to rewrite what they say and mean

Sure they could. Of course they could. Hell that wasn't even their biggest problem - they were seizing private boats sufficient for the task (although it ruined the herring harvest.) The british navy was the big obstacle and resupplying the army once it got there. Actually crossing the army wasn't a problem. And solving the other problems would have taken a little more thought and prep time. But absolutely it was doable. No, hitler listened to himself and was sure he woudn't need to invade. Thus no plans were made. Then it was on again off again every half an hour until it was abandoned. Their air force rotated between bombing strategic targets to force surrender, bombing the very harbors they'd need if they crossed, bombing airfieilds to wipe out fighter command, and occasionally trying to hunt down 'radar' stuff (they were sure the actual gear was buried and only antennas woud be on the surface. ) Nope. But it would have definitely required a couple of years of thought and planning. Nothing 'massive'. But some key things would have to be addressed. AND - it would have meant going after the british fleet more seriously early on. Especially the destroyer force, and subs if possible. It would have been entirely realistic - HAD it been thought of and planned for since the beginning. But - and here we get back to today's situation - i suspect that people told hitler what he wanted to hear. I suspect he said 'britian will fold the moment we start bombing" and everyone say Ja Ja Ja you so smart. THEN he listens to his friend to stop the tanks and let the luftwaffe handle the british on the beach. So they get away. And NOW he realizes he has to go after britian and he's got no way to do it. I wonder if Poutine said "we can take them in a week and america won't resupply them" and everyone say Da Da da you so smart. And then it went down hill from there and now just like hitler in the end nobody wants to tell him the real situation because it's not very good for them. And i wonder what he's hearing now from his people about what is and isn't possible.

By dressing up in drag or having their wee-wee's cut off? Not sure that's the answer we're looking for

Fair point. I mean - that's night and day too I will say tho, i heard an interesting comment when he was in the first election to the effect that his image was so bad that it actually worked for him because expectations were so low that whenever anything trashy came out it was like "yeah? So? It's trump. What'd you expect?"

Dude - you literally went back and edited your posts when you got caught trying to fake quotes from me. You are the king of hysterics I don't correct your spelling or the like (unless it's REALLY funny), i'm too busy correcting your "thinking". And of course i'm using that term as loosely as possible Sorry little guy - you'll have to find something else to pretend to 'win' to make yourself feel better about your poor thinking, low education and inability to defend your position.

Oh i don't think she's making antifa or the left look GOOD here I think if anything her interactions here with us pretty much scare any thinking person from ever having anything to do with those people, and i'm fine with that I have honestly no joke wondered from time to time if she's actually a false flag, and "AA" is actually a right wing person repeating left wing garbage to make them look bad. I can't say for sure either way. Which is a pretty sad statement about leftie positions these days i guess.
