    Actually the Left isn't unhappy at all these days...as it looks like their worst enemy has been caught not only with his financial.pants down, and is looking at his whole financial empire crumbling into the slime he made of it ,AND  is being represented now by an even bigger fool than he is and she has an even louder mouth, though otherwise they are quite similar, both delusional and about to go down the financial drain together. 

    The left is in full on panic mode and as miserable as it gets right now,  and it looks like their worst enemy is probably going to win the upcoming election and be president again, pardon himself for all his crimes, and continue to get even more filthy rich.

    IT's enraging them, it's leading them to make ridiculous statements and become completely desperate - all of which drives more voters into trump's camp.

    I'm simply reacting to the prevalent 'it's not 100% so it's no good", "not perfect right f*cking now so don't even think about it" attitude

    Name one.  Show one person here who said anything like that. At worst people say it's not ready for everyone yet or it's not good enough for them personally.

    Again - you have to lie and make shit up to try to prove a point that doesn't exist.

    The only thing you react to is your tribalism and bigotry. The rest is a conjured fiction to support those.

    Everyone says if it's good for you buy one. Everyone says it's good for some people.  But anyone with a brain can see it's not remotely close to ready to replace ICE just yet.

    You would think, with our hardier strains of wheat and other crops created by Canadian agri-tech decades ago plus the use of greenhouses.  However, our amount of arable land has declined, I’m guessing partly due to development. It sometimes increases year to year too.  I don’t know enough about why it shifts.

    Canada arable land for 2020 was 38,235,000, a 1.07% decline from 2019. Canada arable land for 2019 was 38,648,000, a 0.11% decline from 2018.”

    Well i don't know about that but i'm fairly sure it's harper's fault.

    There you go again with your exaggerated perception - recall the references to Tienanmen Sq when the EA was used. It's no wonder your sorry assessment of my perception is even more ridiculous.

    dude - it's the same damn thing.

    Either there is a line or there isn't.  Either rights are respected or not. And you're the guy who got his panties in a knot screaming trans kids should have a right to privacy - but the right not to have  your bank account and property sized against your human rights is fine and 'why are you making this a big deal'.

    As i've said frequently one of the favorite leftie debate tactics is "it's no big deal, why are you even talking about it".  it's utter bullshit.

    You're all over the right to protest - but if it's illegally taken away from people you don't like you're fine.  Yeash. Mr "i want transparency" as well as "lock up my political opponents'.  Give me a break.

    Yes but Legal  Immigration  is not what Trump on his own decided, he decided without Congress that he would just close our borders  to anyone coming here,  people coming here legally were also prevented from entering!

    Dude that's not true.  Legal immigrants were, by definition, legal even under trump.

    Honestly - why are you like this? You know i'm going to smash that lie in two seconds. Are you SERIOUSLY trying to pretend there were no legal mexican immigrants under trump after the time he passed his laws? You're going with that? How many seconds do you think it'll take me to make you look stupid for saying that?

    Just be honest - these discussions will go much better. There's enough wrong with trump to not need to make things up.

    American industries rely on cheap immigrant labor even resorting to bussing known illegals here to.pick crops

    Ahhh yes.  I believe the last slave owners used the same logic.

    Fix it. "We Need Slave Labour" is not acceptable as a reason to allow illegal immigration.

    So they literally admit they're NOT solving the problems with this, this is an ineffective bill that is at best a stop gap according to him. They say now is not the time to solve the problem.

    His logic is  "“It’s a complex issue. I don’t think now is the time for comprehensive immigration reform, because we know how complicated that is,” Johnson said."

    He's not clear why it would be LESS complex in the future.  AND - he admits he hasn't even read it yet. Aperently some republicans and all democrats don't do "complex". 


    And trump disagrees.

    Again - what's the big crime here?

    The truth is that most of Canada is very hard to inhabit, and we’re developing over our southern arable land at record pace.  It means that Canada’s usable land mass is around 60 million hectares.  Britain is about 25 million hectares, not all of it usable (69%).  Britain has about 67 million people and must have strict land use regulations to manage its densely populated north and Greater London, which make up a huge chunk of England.  I don’t know what the magic highest number is for Canada’s population in terms of quality of life, but I bet southern Canada would feel quite crowded at 67 million.  Of course it wouldn’t just mean an increase of population by around 68% evenly dispersed, because the biggest and most popular areas would increase to a much greater extent.  For example, 70% of immigrants to Canada settle in the Greater Toronto Area.  Imagine adding around 18 million people to the GTA, and that’s just if Canada reaches the 67 million mark. There’s also the matter of food security, since we need arable land for a reliable local food supply.  On that basis alone I wouldn’t seek to increase Canada’s population beyond about 55 million.

    Arable land (% of land area) in Canada was reported at 4.3532 % in 2021, according to the World Bank”

    And if we're being honest - a lot more of our currently "Unusable" land could be developed for agricultural purposes if we wanted. We just don't. 

    I'm told that with global warming that might become even MORE true.

    Do you think that Jan.6 is the only act of right wing violence in the last few years or what.

    You have something bigger than the left wing riots? Sure - lets keep going if you want to do comparisons :)    I think you're not thinking very carefully if you think you'll come out ahead in that area :)

    Ah yes the old "look at what you made me do" line, a favourite of wife-beaters everywhere.

    Ahhh yes the "lie and pretend it's all their fault and we did nothing" excuse - a favorite of terrorists everywhere. Gaza absolutely agrees with you - why are THEY being punished for nothing?

    I bet you think this sounded smart and insightful, which is fascinating.

    I think even you realize THAT sounded  desperate and hollow.  Try not to cry.

    I don’t think Trudeau, or the Libs, are seen as Mulroney and the Cons of the time. 

    Mulroney was seen in a more positive light. The polling is pretty clear. Hence the thread.

    Polling strongly indicates the libs are wearing this, not just Justin.  Which is why nobody's chomping at the bit for him to step down and let them take over.

    Again - a very sizeable portion of their current pathetically small support is only there to try to keep the CPC out.  When it becomes clear that this is not possible, those people could easily decide to stay at home and the actual voting support to fall to as low as 17 percent.  That might not be high enough to win any ridings other than a handful in toronto. They might very well fall below 20 seats.

    when election comes the cons will win 36-38% support and squeek out a   majority . i highly doubt they get above 40 once a campaigns starts either way they will have power for  4 years and destroy the country even more.

    LOL - man we can hear your desperation from here :)  You're obviously realizing he's going to win big and that upsets you.

    Fair enough. But i think you better start steeling yourself  for more like 8 years at least.

    Can you?

    People keep talking about this magic bill but no one is actually telling us what is actually in it and I cannot find anything beyond rumors about the contents of this bill.

    Bipartisan in politic speak means they have like one Republican guy in a blue state on board.

     

    I haven't seen it either but i understand it does nothing to actually stop people coming across the border.  Just more cops to pick them up and release them into the country on a 'promise to appear' which few do.

    trump required them to wait in mexico.  Biden could bring that back tomorrow and that would solve much of the problem.  But he won't.

    The Senate passed an immigration bill that the President will sign. The House Republicans are refusing to take it up.  Cause Trump told them not to, because politics matters more than solving problems. 

    Wow - this is the very first time i've ever heard of the house republicans refusing to pass a democrat bill. Will we be having a small statue made to commemorate the day?

     

    Seriously this is starting to get tedious.  What the hell is even your point with this? The republicans want more and they don't want to settle for this and trump has expressed his views -  this is all perfectly normal, what's your point?

    If Abbott creates his own military politicized, Biden will take him to court and let the courts decide. If Abbott remains in violation of a court order, Biden will order his arrest. 

    Well the military is already there, texas pays for and maintains it's own small army on top of the guard.  But - if biden creates what would amount to a constitutional crisis in Canada (not sure what it's called in the states) then it's not as simple as arresting Abbott - who's pretty popular btw.   It would be a political disaster of epic proportions in many of the southern states politically and he would look like a failure to the rest of the nation.  How can you lead the union if you can't keep them united? Trump would eat him alive.

    So - it's going to be a little more of an issue than that.

    gee, everything i can look up about the "texas military" has "national guard" in the name. and Abbot himself appears to know that he's not in full control of the national guard.

    Abbott: Texas prepared in ‘unlikely event’ Biden federalizes National Guard  (note Abbott does not mention how he is prepared)

    so i think this is more internet dream theatre.

     

    No, texas has a military force seperate from the guard.

    the video of the "confrontation" appears to be border agents attempting to get to a mother and two children who were drowning. Texas militia just looked on.

    Video shows Texas National Guard soldiers appearing to ignore a mother and baby’s pleas for help in the Rio Grande

    sends a message i guess. the screams of the children are horrifying.

    and Biden says he will shut down the border on day one if given the lawful ability. GOP... meh.

    Biden says he’ll shut down the border if deal gives him authority

     

     

    Biden has already let in more people in 2023 than trump did in his entire term.

    Sorry, NOBODY with a brain is buying the idea that biden is the great defender of the border :) he wants it open, he likes it open. he wishes it were more open  :)

    How about we subject everyone in Canada including citizens to the same values test and eject anyone who fails?

     

    You realize you'd be one of the ones leaving right? :)

    I meant we’ve seen at least SOME Canadians on this forum support massacre of Palestinians as punishment for Oct7 and that’s really not so different when you consider that those who support Oct 7 consider it punishment for earlier Israeli misdeeds.

    Hogwash. This isn't some punishment for some percieved injustice some time ago etc. this was an act of war and now the two groups are in conflict until someone loses

    And i don't recall anyone saying it's 'punishment' - people say they are getting what they asked for by allowing hamas to hide behind them. I think everyone would be just as happy if hamas came out into the open and let the citizens live but  they don't. And this is the price you pay for attacking civvies like that and then getting in front of your soldiers.

    Lastly I’ll say that most Irish, along with Southern, Eastern and Central European immi , if they came here prior to WW2 or even shortly thereafter, were similarly seen as poor, primitive, crude, unfamiliar with our democratic principles, etc. And they also brought their ethnic identities and w them and had demonstrations and riots and so forth.

    Severely stretching the truth there  and i think you know it. Especially 'riots' - which year were the great irish riots again? And yeah those russian mennonites are such a roudy violent bunch...

    Here's the real difference. All of those groups agreed to put their own cultures on the backburner and integrate as best they could as fast as they could. And they did.

    this is the problem. nobody supports BLM protester violence. nobody.

     

    Sure they do. And they egg it on.'  Hell one of the squad even raised money to get their leaders out on bail.

    When they call it a 'mostly peaceful protest' they're supporting the violence. They're downplaying the violence and they're saying 'ohhh weelllll'.

    When AOC says 'Protests are SUPPOSED to make you uncomfortable" she's supporting the violence. 

    When they say "it's wrong to attack the police like that BUT  we undrestand why they would" and words to that effect they're supporting the violence. 

    Sorry but the dems had very little problem with the violence  or egging it on or ratcheting up the rhetoric.

    And these same people who spent a whole year egging those people on have the NERVE to say that j6 was trumps fault because of his rhetoric.

    You'll get no argument from me unless it looks like they share their supporters respect for the Tucker Carlsons, Jordan Petersons and Conrad Black's of the world. Mostly the Black's of the world though. For reasons that should be obvious.

     

    LOL - we will absolutely get an argument from you.'  Lets face it - 'must be left of castro' is also one of your requirements. Thats why you support justin or the party that keeps him in power.
