  1. I'm still trying to work out if it's carbine or carbine, don't screw with my head like that. (those who know will know.)
  2. That's true of most terms, especially ones involving politics. I mean, what's the absolute definition of 'conservative'? Or liberal? Conservatives like balanced budgets right? Chretien ran several balanced budgets so is he conservative? It's always shades of grey. It is generally widely accepted that "woke' refers to political ideas (or people who espouse them) that are considered to be of a more extreme left wing persuasion, often characterized by ideology rather than practicality or common sense. Being supportive of the trans community is somewhat left wing. Requiring people fly a trans flag on their property during pride month or face jail time would be woke.
  3. I suspect the next leader is going to get clobbered regardless. Most Canadians are pretty done with the whole liberal concept and it's bled over to the NDP as well. That's not going to change just because they swap leaders. And quite likely we will see a change in NDP leaders right around the same time we're seeing a change in liberal leaders after the next election. What the liberals really need is someone who can rebuild the party as the next leader. They were already divisions in the party that were significant and I expect that there are a ton of tensions under the surface right now. Canadians faith in the party has been shaken to the core and that doesn't just change with a leader. They are also rudderless and directionless and Canada is absolutely fed up with the whole woke thing. They need to take a long hard look at themselves, have a long leadership race which really explores who they are and where they're going to go, get the party to buy into that and then move forward. Otherwise they could very well find themselves Out of power for three or more terms.
  4. There's probably not much of that going on. Not to say that it's implausible but it just doesn't seem to be the case in this particular instance. Her letter leaves no doubt. She is calling Justin out and saying that his actions only serve himself and not Canada. About the most you can say is she's trying to distance herself from him so that she still has a leadership opportunity later but to be honest this seems to be more along the lines of he wanted her to take the fall for all of his bad economic policy and then bring carney in and she decided she did not want to take that fall and punched him right in his face instead. This was done in a way that very much targets just in himself, rather than just distancing herself from him. The letter was very harsh, and while some of it is possibly open to interpretation there are clear phrases calling justin out that leave no doubt. If i had to guess, justin has been talking to Carney and he went to her and wanted her to get demoted and then he'd blame her for 'bad budgets' and promote carney as the second coming who'd save us all. There's a percentage of !diots out there who'd believe that. Just as they did with Ignatieff. The "white knight appearing " concept is a popular one for liberals. I would bet she's been arguing with him that his policies were flawed for ages, was probably furious he made her do the 'gst holiday' thing which has bombed, and is now angry at being tossed aside because his policies didn't work.
  5. Looks like it's legit Nathan Wade, special prosecutor in Georgia's case against Donald Trump, met with Biden officials - Washington Times Well that's kind of a big deal. This has been handled so poorly. There are so many red flags that even if everything they have done is completely innocent and they are following the law the public will still look at it and say it's complete bullshit. There is no way to make this look legitimate anymore. In their desperate haste to try and convict trump of not only anything but rather everything, any legitimate charges or issues that he should have been held to account for if any are now completely in the garbage can
  6. LOL sure it is You've really got me on the ropes! I'm writhing in the grip of your unassailable logic Keep it up, you've almost won!!! 🍿🍿🍿 [munch munch] 🍿🍿🍿 oh , and i looked this up for you. Autism Care Network - Autism Speaks Canada
  7. Freeland wasn't the only one to jump ship . Housing minister Sean Fraser will also be announcing he's stepping down and won't run in the next election. He was a massive defender of Justin and it puts his atlantic seat up for grabs at a time when the CPC is surging in the atlantics and the libs could lose their hold. This is a DEVISTATING blow for Justin. She just threw him entirely under the bus, this is a huge embarrassment for him, and it's going to seriously impact his ability to keep his cabinet in line. As things stand it would not surprise me to see the entire liberal party start to come apart. There's going to be horrible in fighting. Trudeau is desperately trying to get mark carney to come on to give some legitimacy but that guy would have to be completely brain dead to tangle his name with this mess
  8. Yeah well, a lot of those voters are getting red pill pretty quick now that they can't afford food or lodging or a future.
  9. there is no chance that it gets done for $800 million. Every single gun law and gun program the liberals have ever brought out has exceeded its budget by 10 times and they are grossly underestimating the number of guns and they are not including a number of costs involved. And they're not just going to randomly send the guns to ukraine to dispose of them as Trudeau suggested. You can't just give every soldier a different type of gun even if they're similar models. That's just not how armies work
  10. Ahhhhh - this is stimming isn't it? You're autistic. Psychiatry.org - Understanding Stimming: Repetitive Behaviors with a Purpose Stimming Repetitive behaviors that can include flapping hands, rocking the body, or repeating words or phrases. Stimming can be disruptive or socially inappropriate, and can sometimes cause self-harm. Well at least we've identified one of your mental health conditions.
  11. Hard to say, you clumped so many Quotes together I'm not even a million percent sure who you're talking to. Is this your very first time on a discussion forum junior? No you don't. You've already dismissed people's opinion is being utterly irrelevant as long as you don't like it. You started off with that at the very beginning. Your whole point is if you decide what you should call me then I should accept that but you should have a say in what I call you. You're the disgrace here you narcissistic uneducated talking point robot. Respect and civility is earned. you are NOT respectable. And you've been rude as hell. In my day you dealt with bullies by punching them in the face. And seeing as i'm still alive it's still my day. So if you don't like it then don't be such an unmitigated ass and maybe people will treat you better. A lesson i suspect the whole trans community is about to learn over the next few years.
  12. Legato is a Canadian. Soooooo However regardless it's still a joke. I agree that it's a joke and horrible taste and might be slightly amusing if he weren't the president and Justin weren't the Prime Minister, but it is not funny at all between two nations. But that doesn't mean it's not a joke. If you're going to get mad every time trump tells an inappropriate joke it's going to be a very long 4 years for you But regardless, we do not have to act like children back and cut our own throats with the American public. Justin was very clearly not joking
  13. You've been dishonest. A number of times. And we don't have to provide proof. That's the problem that you don't understand, if you discredit yourself nobody's interested in proving it to you you just have no credibility anymore
  14. No No... let him talk. If the dems and the left keep going like that they'll lose the next election too and likely the one after. Please herbie! Do continue and enlighten us as to why the left feels the american voters are all terrible people? (This is the humour section after all, and in 4 years the joke's going to be on them )
  15. That's only because you don't have a secret Herbie decoder ring. Here, let me run it through mine for you "Orange man bad, capitalist bad, communist good, you go away now" Hmmm Why is it ALWAYS the same message?
  16. You've already got two accounts here, you certainly could start a third and just go with that if you wanted and shut this one down. It's not like you've had it here for years or something
  17. Oh look you're having imaginary conversations with yourself again 🙄 That's probably a sign of good mental health right? You're getting upset because everybody's looking down on you and commenting on it and your efforts to make me even a little bit angry aren't going anywhere. If anything you're making me slightly bored. Your life must be exceptionally lonely and full of fear. I wonder if that's why you're so full of hate and bigotry?
  18. Oh look, you're so mentally broken and buthurt that your misquoting me and having weird little fantasy conversations with yourself. Let me guess, when you get yelled at in the real world as soon as you get home you take out your little dolls and imagine yourself saying something really witty back to the person right? And you wonder why nobody respects you and people think you drink
  19. No, for example I never mentioned it to anybody other than you unless they are obviously drunk. It's pretty obvious when you've had a few Oh, and it's pretty much just you. The only other ones are those who are equally mentally disturbed and will frequently freak out and go on for pages and pages and pages posting ass porn Or childish memes thinking they're doing well One of the many reasons I was voted poster of the year You remember that right? Look kid, it's clear you still drink. It's also clear that you have no morals or sense of decency, I have seen with many posters you claiming to be shitty** in their mouth, you made suggestions about convictions for child molestation that were untrue, you frequently misquote me and others and pretend they're legitimate quotes, you freak out and lose your mind every time that you are proven wrong and 3/4 of the time it's you who prove you wrong. You're just a garbage person. You are entitled to your opinion but you are not entitled to respect and Most of the people have made it clear that they do not respect you here. And that's no wonder Why don't you consider cleaning up your act and actually earning respect for a change. You can't go through your whole life being that miserable and worthless of a person.
  20. Yes, so why in the hell would you feed them ammo? If you know someone's going to mug you, maybe don't buy them a glock!!! And while i appreciate your instictive lefty desire to say "why are we even talking about this" with any subject you can't defend, the fact is we need to be talking about this. Why in god's name are you standing up for Trudeau and his stupid antics when you know it's going to hurt Canada? This is a very bad thing and your instinct is to try and protect the man who is all but destroyed our country while he's in the process of doing additional damage! I don't care if you are a liberal, even you with your head stuck firmly up your echo chamber have got to realize there comes a point when even a liberal has to look at this behavior and say this guy has to go or we have to at least condemn him publicly for this in the hopes that it will deter him from doing it again How low does this guy have to sink before you say "Enough"? You absolutely did see me saying that! I specifically said out loud that even if he doesn't like Trudeau that it is beyond disrespectful to Canadians to insult the position like that. But here's the difference, canadians opinion of what trump said will make no difference to anything anywhere. Trump certainly doesn't care. However the American opinion of Canada will make a huge difference if we get into a trade war which seems imminent. If people are less approving of Canada it will give political capital to trump to be more abusive. If Americans are more sympathetic to Canada then pressure put on trump to end a conflict sooner. So Trudeau should have been out there appealing to Americans and saying hey, thought we were friends. Why are you letting this guy bully us? Instead he's out there saying you guys are a bunch of useless scumbags and should be ashamed of yourself for how you voted. That will definitely p^ss off a huge number of Americans. But I guess you are much like Trudeau, you care less about Canadians and our welfare and more about virtue signaling and the like.
  21. You run around making false accusations about people, editing what they say, and behaving in an utterly disgusting and reprehensible fashion, act happy about a person being shot because you don't like their politics and then claim to worry about democracy That rings pretty hollow.
  22. MAID in the Great White North: Canadian per Capita Euthanasia Deaths Now Beat U.S. Gun Deaths – Twitchy Back in March, Canada added mental illness to its list of MAiD-eligible conditions. What's MAiD? It's Canada's 'Medical Assistance in Dying' program. It was meant to help patients with terminal illnesses die with 'dignity' and now it's devolved into being used to off the poor, Canadian military veterans, the disabled, and the mentally ill. FIVE PERCENT of Canadian deaths were medically-assisted suicide last year. The story this writer is reacting to is this one: She sought help in crisis and was offered MAID instead - BC News - Castanet.net This spring Mentler found herself in crisis and took herself to Vancouver General Hospital’s Access and Assessment Centre to get help. “That day my goal was to keep myself safe. I was thinking of maybe trying to get myself admitted to hospital because I was in crisis,” she says. Mentler says she told the counsellor she was scared she’d “never not feel horrible.” She also disclosed her history of mental illness and self-harm. Mentler says the counsellor then told her the mental health system was “completely overwhelmed,” that there were “no beds” and that the soonest Mentler could talk with a psychiatrist would be in November. Or she could talk with the on-call psychiatrist, get committed and end up stuck in a holding room, which she wouldn’t be allowed to leave, while she waited for a bed to become available. Mentler says the counsellor told her the whole system was “broken.” “It was pretty disheartening and made me feel helpless,” Mentler says. “I’m coming here because I’m looking for help and you’re telling me there is no help.” That’s when the counsellor asked Mentler if she’d ever considered medically assisted suicide. Just to be crystal clear, I am in favor of people having the choice to commit suicide if they wish. What concerns me is that this option is being put in front of people at a time when they are extremely weak and emotionally vulnerable. This includes veterans and people with mental health issues. But because our medical system is broken the system is finding it easier to offer a suicide option rather than treatment This is pretty horrible
  23. For sure. You've been land deserves every opportunity to profit from its hard work and resources, same as any province, and that has been denied to them up till now. I show genuinely hope that this goes through and that their future improves as a result. Perhaps it will be the beginning of a long growth pass for them, success tends to breed success and New Opportunities may appear as a result
  24. Sure boozer Those who's political leanings beliefs and ideology are on the left of the political spectrum. Wasn't that hard was it. Ok. How does that make it better? That's what you tell yourself when you do something stupid and i point at it and laugh but that's not projection. Belittling losers and the more retarded on the left is fair. LOL - so you were severely butthurt because you proved yourself wrong, you're further butthurt because i pointed out when you're drunk, then you're mega butthurt because your sad assed attempt to call me a russian blew up in your face and now you're following me around just crying like a baby about how terrible i am LOL Ahhh such a class act you are Maybe but that will be long after a trade war with us. In the meantime we don't need them hating canada. 1) Saying that trudeau should not p*ss off the american people just before a trade war with the us is not siding with trump LOLOLOL 2 ) I thought i was a russian?!? You can't make up your mind about anything can you Go have another drink kiddo and they're looking at getting rid of some of their problem people there too I hear So I take it you agree with trump's deportation plans? I don't feel like you really thought that through.
  25. 70 cents is TERRIBLE. It is very bad. Once the dollar goes below 83 cents us we get a diminishing return quickly moving to a negative in the upper 70's. 70 is very bad. We don't import lumber. We export lumber. What we import is things made with lumber. So we sell the supplies cheap and buy the finished product back expensive when the dollar is low. You literally got that backwards. With a low dollar we cannot generate enough revenue to afford new machinery. Nope. That's auto only. Every other industry of which there are hundreds it's a straight increase for us. I cannot stress this enough, you are so wrong and backwards in this that it's actually scaring me a little. We don't sell more just because the dollar is low. Very quickly we hit market saturation and the dollar being lower doesn't mean more sales, it just means it's more expensive for us to buy what we need. And WORSE, it drives up the prices locally. We sell a lot of wood. If the us is willing to pay 10 dollars us per board of wood, and our dollar is 90 cents then we pay 1.10 for the wood (more or less, you get the idea). If the dollar falls to 50 cents, then the wood manufactuers can STILL GET 100 from the americans, so we have to pay 2 dollars cdn for that same wood. So it shoots up our inflation, reduces our ability to buy products outside of canada and it does NOTHIGN to increase sales. Forestry companies are already cutting as much wood as they can for example. The dollar at 70 cents is TERRIBLE for us. It starts getting 'bad' at around 78 75 cents. IT only gets good for us at around 83-86 cents. And above that its' often still good, we did great in harper's time when our dollar was above the us's..
