Impressive. Mexico pushing back. -

The Democrats should have forced Biden out in early 2024, held a primary, and selected a competent Presidential candidate. Kamala was never a winner. -

This time it is different. All the democratic safeguards have been removed, and he has surrounded himself with horrible, yet unqualified "yes" men. Trump is going to do whatever he wants, and nothing is going to stop him. -

I read a couple of paragraphs, and died inside. Kamala should crawl under a rock, and stay there. I could have have a better job. I mean I certainly would have not been the first President with a DUI. -
Pew research reported that Hilary Clinton was the most unpopular First Lady in history, back in 2001. Yet the Democratic Party rigged the Primaries so she could beat Bernie Sanders, a much more popular candidate, who would have beat Trump. Then the Democrats chose Biden in 2020, someone the party should ahve went with in 2000 or 2016. Considering his age, it was unlikely he would finish off two terms with full cognitive abilities. Only COVID prevented Trump from serving two consecutive terms. The party was probably well aware of Biden's cognitive decline by 2022. They should have forced him out. However, I guess they thought anyone could beat Trump at that point, and gambled on a loser. Then instead of having a proper primary, the party chose Kamala Harris, who was even worse than Hilary. All they had to do was go with Pete Buttigieg, and goodbye Trump. If there are still elections allowed in 2028 (there is always the chance that MAGA can outlaw elections by then), let's hope the Democrats chose wisely.

It would be wonderful if you could share a source, or link with us about this. I have no idea what you are talking about, and my assumption is that I am probably not alone. -

The playbook is already out on Trump. Act like a tyrant, then when meeting with Trump, stroke his ego, then negotiate. Trump only seems to respect autocratic leaders. Narcissistic people that have remarkably thin skin (for a World leader) can easily be manipulated. Putin, Xi, and Kim Jung Un are well aware of Trump, and will play him like a violin. Ukraine, Taiwan, and South Korea will suffer. -

At this point, I think we all need to come together as Canadians, and do what is right for our country, and only our country. Screw partisanship at this point. I am niot a big fan of Trudeau, but the alternative is far worse. Trump will not respect PP, and he will walk all over him. We need a man who can stand up to Trump. -
Who will Make Canada Great Again?

Canada's Black population is just under 5%. Our Native population is also just under 5%. Combined, that would be roughly 9% of the population. In America, the Native population is 0.9%. Native Americans have been found to ahve similar incarceration rates with Black people. The combined Black/Native population in America is 14%. In other words, it's only 5% higher. in the United States. However, in Canada, the population of Black/Natives is catching up to America on a per-capita rate, and may equal it within 20 years. However, Canada's crime rate dropped for 23 straight years (1991-2014), while the Indigenous and Black population of Canada rose dramatically, so that kind of raises questions about your theory of race and crime. That's strange. between 1991-2014, the crime rate in Canada actually fell dramatically, while the Black population of Canada more than doubled, and increased from 1.8% to 3.5%. The change is even more dramatic in most Western European countries, yet in UK, France, Germany, and Scandinavia, the crime rate is even lower than Canada. -
It goes both way. It's hypocritical to complain about Canada, and lump us with Mexico, when we have had roughly 1/200 of the amounted of undocumented migrants from Mexico, and 1/10,000 of fentanyl exports. The onus is also on the Americans to catch the Indians crossing the border. Canada had the reverse problem in 2017 with Somalians, and you do not hear us complaining about America, or threatening the US with tariffs. People have, in insignificant numbers, crossed both borders illegally for decades. In fact, Canada has more of a right to argue illegals threaten our national security than the Americans do. Serial killers and wanted criminals often come to Canada, with disastrous results. IN Calgary alone, two serial killers ended up in the city less than a decade apart. Charles Ng murdered over 20 women in California, and shot a security guard in 1985 in Calgary. Another serial killer fled America, only to murder four young women in the late 1970s. The case was just resolved last year. Perhaps Americans should look at themselves in the mirror, but with Trump at the helm, we know that is not going to happen. I always found it ironic that Trump painted Mexican immigrants as "rapists and violent criminals," when Canada could say the same thing about dozens of Americans who have fled to Canada after committing horrific crimes.

I find it ironic, and somewhat amusing that in 2017, hundreds of migrants (mainly Somalian), fled across the border to Canada in freezing cold temperatures from America, and attempted to seek asylum here. It goes both ways. I suppose the only difference is, many of the Somalians had criminal records, and were going to be extradited. The situation for the past 18 months, has been quite different. The border crossers are mainly East Indians, who are not Canadian citizens, and trying to find employment in America. There is no "national security" issues. It's more of a matter of eradicating immigration from South Asia for a few years.

Alan Dershowitz, Physically and mentally abused his first wife, which drove her to suicide. Dershowitz was a very good friend of Jeffrey Epstein, and was a regular visitor to Epstein Island. Years later, he was accused by numerous women of sexual abuse, when they were underage (usually at Epstein Island). It's almost comical how no men of honour, would ever defend Trump.
