Sure - same reason they understand why israel is bombing the crap out of gaza to resist their terrorist subjugation attacks on their civilians. Kinda sounds like you've got some moving goalposts there big guy. One set of rules for ukraine and one set for hamas.

Of course it's why you do it. And i hardly care what a left wing lunatic like yourself chooses to call me - people like you can't be taken seriously at the best of times . It woudl be like getting upset if a 3 year old called you a poopy-head. But it is very obviously your effort to dehumanize people so that you can justify not addressing their legitimate points. You literally just called people chuds and do so daily, and your discussion is very frequently unprincipled. I've noticed many have pointed this out to you. You engage in a lot of dodging of questions, comments that contribute nothing but are simply spiteful, dismissing people by dehumanizing them first, attempting to minimize and downplay issues rather than actually address them, and the list goes on. So. Seeing as you fit the definition nicely, it would seem you're a bit of a Chud yourself Everyone knows that's a lie, everyone points out it's a lie whenever you say it, and if your mental abilities are so weak that you cannot possibly fathom another way to refer to a group other than an insult even you struggled to define then frankly we should find you a forum for "special needs' people so you can be with your own kind

It's definitely not good when you've got a growing population and negative growth in the economy. That is presumably a temporary thing though. And realistically some would argue that the downturn would be worse without the immigrants thus the pie would be even smaller. I havent run the numbers for recent periods so i don't really know - i kind of doubt it but maybe At the end of the day tho, you're thinking about the pie but you're forgetting about how much pie it takes to live now. Inflation 'shrinks' the pie all on it's own and there's zero doubt that inflation in excess of our ability to provide new homes and services leads to severe inflation. And that's what we're seeing now. Immigration tends to cause the pie to grow, but if it's in excess of what we can cope with and absorb then it shrinks the pie through inflation. The pie itself may be bigger but you need more just to get by so effectively you have less

Funny enough i know of something similar, tho not so severe. When i was growing up there was a first nations kid in my class who was a math genius. We all agreed, the kid was beyond gifted, had real potential to be something special. He got pulled from the school by his parents because of prejudices about 'whitey' education. Which was very weird to me because the local band had up to that point been actually pretty involved and supportive of the school and the chief had come and done lectures on first nations history and culture and even held a mock potlatch. I think a new chief got in after he retired and was just racist towards whites and schools and the community changed and they pulled this kid who could have had a very promising future.

Well of course it's being warped. It's been deliberately misused and has been for 7 years now. Dems and their supporters twist the law out of shape to weaponize it to go after trump. That's beyond obvious - and the reports into the fbi activities show that clearly, and the current charges make that pretty clear as well. A small handful are legit, the vast majority are simply attempts to attack trump and keep him away from the presidency. Anybody with half a brain and a little neutrality can see that. And I would be surprised if trump DIDN'T look for payback if he gets in. Probably spend 4 years appointing people to investigate specific individuals for the slightest hint of wrongdoing and then prosecuting them. Which of course is what theyv'e done to him. I can see why the dems are petrified.

LOL - dude you are one hell of a hypocrite

Don't care - you've shown that you have no intent to be trruthful or honest. What value is the disagreement of the dishonest? You mean like the war of 1812 where they invaded us and we fought back in a series of bloody battles? Or perhaps you mean the plains of abraham? Could you be talking about the riel revolution and the metis war? Yeah - it's a lie you keep repeating - and once again you can't offer a single example as to why you believe that's true NOR can you address the dozens of points i've raised proving otherwise. Which means you're basically a serial liar and a bad person. That's too bad. But then - you are from quebec. China has over 300. What's your point?

Yes. Umm yes - was your account hacked by a parrot? Well you don't seem like the kind of person who believes much in free speech so that's understandable. We're on the same page there but this really wasn't about the gender wars the trans and gays have started recently. This was about a teacher who's served for decades who had legitimate concerns about kids in grade one being exposed to graphic accounts of sex and glorification of being transgender without context of the problems associated, and when she attended a school board meeting to discuss it (and was quite respectful, i've seen the vid of it) she was nastily dismissed and then the school hounded the hell out of her and mistreated her so badly that she retired. They claimed she'd violated the civil rights act and that they would seek to charge her if she didn't go away. Destroying someone's life just because they question whether a book involving sex and sexuality is appropriate for grade 1 is beyond inappropriate. She should have been allowed to raise her concerns for discussion and been treated fairly after. That's why this is a victory. It's sending a clear message - if you try to cancel someone and destroy their life for just discussing a subject you don't want discussed or questioning if something is appropriate - there could be serious ramifications. People should be free to discuss anything.

Nope - just split. Go away. We sure as hell didn't get to write the 'english' version. Just have a simple vote - go or stay - and get out. Quebec is the most ignorant, arrogant, narcissistic non productive province in the federation. Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out. Just be thankful there's no legal basis for having a referendum to kick you out. (yes - we checked.)

https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/court-victory-for-teacher-silenced-for-transgender-book-criticism An Ontario judge has declared that human rights legislation “does not prohibit public discussion of anything,” in a free-speech victory for a teacher who was shut down when she raised concerns at a school board meeting about transgender-themed books in elementary school libraries. “What happened here should not happen in a democratic society,” Ontario Superior Court Justice James Ramsay said in the case of now-retired teacher Carolyn Burjoski. “The Human Rights Code does not prohibit public discussion of issues related to transgenderism or minors and transgenderism. It does not prohibit public discussion of anything.” The judge was ruling on an attempt by the Waterloo Region District School Board to have Burjoski’s defamation lawsuit against the board and its former chair, Scott Piatkowski, thrown out. Burjoski’s ouster from a board meeting on Jan. 17, 2022 drew international attention. She was ejected after discussing publications she said are available in the libraries of kindergarten to Grade 6 schools. She had begun to argue the books made it seem too simple and “cool” to medically transition to another gender when Piatkowski cut short her presentation. She launched a defamation lawsuit, which the board sought to have thrown out. In a Nov. 23 ruling, Ramsay dismissed the bid and ordered the board to pay Burjoski $30,000 in costs. He said her claims have merit and should be allowed to proceed, adding the comments made against her were “defamatory.” This is a fantastic win. If you have seen what she said and the books she referred to and the passages in it she definitely had a point, and they threw her out and hounded her into the hospital for daring to stand up for children. This is a major victory against the woke hard left trans/gay community and their brown shirts who seek to silence anyone who DARES to even consider questioning their logic. 30 grand just for legal fees and the defamation suit is still to come.

Nobody really doubed he was correct - it was the going early part. And if anything this shows he was wrong not to wait - a few months and he'd have had all the evidnece he needed to back his claims. NOW - he picked that fight, hurt the economy and was forced to back down and look like an 1diot entirely. I mean seriously even on this board nobody argued he was not correct. So i doubt anyone's letting him off the hook. The stupidity was going early and now losing our abiltiy to do anything about it because we were already forced to back down.

Do it. You'd be one step closer to separating which most of the west would love to see, AND when your currency crashes we can buy up your stuff for pennies and own you. You realize that it's only oil and lumber and wheat etc that keeps the canadian buck so high right? Go on your own without that, you can call it the quebec peso

Well that's the biggest problem. So if anyone suggests any part of it including the 'permanent harm to future generations' part which they mention specificaly is not as severe an impact as they suggest then you're spreading hatred and should go to jail.

No, that would not be legal in canada. You can't even ride a bike drunk

There's nothing terribly remarkable. We had a lot of potential but that's largely gone. Now we're just an underperforming heavily statist country who will continue to underperform for 40 years at minimum and who has no clout in the world. We're pretty average if we're being kind to ourselves. How the hell is that an achievement. And really we have one language - it just changes breifly at one point then flips back. IN what way. Tell me how quebec gets along with anyone? YOu're just a loser who can't face simple facts and repeats a lie to try to get himself to sleep at night. Now - if we got rid quebec and people like you who refuse to actually face the issues and deal with them, THEN we might be a remarkable country one day. But as long as we have losers like you who repeat "everything's fine " as the house burns down, nothing gets fixed. You are literally why we cannot have nice things. Yay. And if the rest of canada did and quebec didn't - they would demand we turn it over. Have you looked at the power deal between quebec and newfoundland? The churchill falls deal? Tell me all about how we 'get along' as you rape those poor saps for the one thing they could have made money on all those years.

@I am Groot Of course it's undefinable. IT's simply a term that sounds bad intended to dehumanize people he doesn't like. It's no different than calling black people 'n*ggers' or the like. Take away their humanity and you don't have to face up to their viewpoints and arguments. That's how the left rolls these days, demonize and dehumanize, then dismiss them. You're a maga-cultist, or you're a chud etc etc. The left is about hate and anger. This shouldn't be surprising. Why would he need a definition?

I now see the folly of my ways Literally a person who can't figure out the difference between a round hole and a round peg

3/4 of canadians in a new poll think we have too many immigrants and that they're largely responsible for the housing crisis. Quebec, where you live, won't even allow immigrants in right now because they can't get along with them. It is the height of arrogance and lies to say we get along. YOU especially.

Sorry - they don't get to break it down like that. Darn near half the nation voted for trump in 2016. And that's who they insulted. But it's typical that you have to lie to yourself to try to live with your shame.

Which you state without any proof or evidence. RoboTop goes WZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz

That's not disagreement - it's delusion. We don't get along. For a while the east was big enough to force it's will on the west. That's quickly changing and as it does the disagreements get stronger and stronger. And quebec doesn't get along with anyone, as a province they're nothing but spoiled brats demanding all the other kids owe them their toys. For you of all people to say we 'get along' when you're part of a leech culture like that without at least the honour or dignity to admit it is disgusting. Quebec is living proof we don't get along. Also they're limiting immigration just BECAUSE they don't get along with most people.

Wow - looks like i hit closer to home than i meant to. You have a bit of a habit of talking out of two sides of your mouth. All i said was that as long as you're clearly separating history from hamas's decisions to start a war then that's perfectly legit. You seem to have a problem with that and freaked out. Lets keep this simple and eliminate any misunderstandings. I say the Gaza gov't, Hamas, was 100 percent responsible for starting this war and attacking israel. Do you agree with that statement or do you feel someone else shares responsibility for their actions?

Twitter was a cesspool of far left hatred that silenced the right regularly. So, now both sides are equal. And you absolutely hate that lololol

If you do it in the same breath, you're making excuses for hamas. Generally being critical of israel's gov't or actions is fine. But when you imply that those actions resulted in this war (the 'vacuum' excuse) then what you're saying is that it's "understandable" or somewhat justified that this happened. If you want to discuss israel's role in the whole peace process that's fine but it has NOTHING to do with the decision by Gaza to initiate a war by slaughtering thousands of civillians deliberately as a target of terror. Just so were' clear.

There was too much stupid to go over in that post but this deserves special attention You literally just said that the average of a group represents the group as a whole. That is just dumb. It represents the average of a group as a whole, not the group. You cannot say that the average can be applied to the individual components of the group, which whether you meant to or not is precisely what you just said. The whole group may average to be xxx - but that does not mean the whole group is xxx. Further - if we use your version of "average" - then one person who was REALLY low would skew the average downward, but the majority of the people would be above that average. FOr example if 9 people score 100 and 1 scores only 1 - then the average as you count it is 90.1 - but 90 percent of the people are above that. It's bad enough you don't know how law works. and you don't know how logic works. and you can't count without taking off your mittens. But for EFS sake if you don't even know how basic math works - maybe keep your mouth shut and let us wonder.
