So what? The letter does not reference wearing a keffiyeh. I don't need know the validity of every claim of hate. It's a letter condemning antisemitism. This is a no-brainer. Antisemitism bad, we condemn it. It's not a bill with a bunch of pork in it. It's a statement. All it requires is a signature. No time at all. You have to wonder why they won't do it.

But Housefather's letter says nothing about criticizing Israel. It talks about rising incidents of hate against Jews within Canada, referencing how Jews make up a little more than 1% of Canada's population but make up 70% of reported acts of hate. And it's a letter from one of their own MPs for crying out loud. Why wouldn't they sign this?

I sure hope you are right.

Liberal MP Anthony Housefather issued a letter condemning the rising antisemtism in Canada and only about one fifth of the Liberal caucus has signed it. By contrast the the entire conservative caucus has signed it. Shouldn't this be an easy one? Why are so many Liberals hesitant to back this? At this point, If they eventually do, it's just one more example of how the Liberals need Conservatives to lead them. Why don't we just elect the people who continually get it right the first time?

Well now that I have, I won't argue with you anymore.

If you can't beat em', ignore 'em.

Trinidad and Tobago leader praises strike and says US should kill all drug traffickers ‘violently’ https://www.cnn.com/2025/09/03/americas/trinidad-tobago-caribbean-us-venezuela-strike-intl-latam

Maybe he means you can't merely point a gun at someone. You need a 'lawful reason' like "I really wanna kill this guy." Once you've shot him it becomes ok.

His initials are PP, and if you say them outloud it sounds like pee pee. He smells like terds and farts all day long. He picks his nose and eats it and his nose shoots boogers and if you even go near him you get infested with Nazi cooties. He didn't get that security clearance that would have gagged him. He spends his time as opposition leader being critical of the government instead of agreeing with all the liberal policies leading to our decline. That's just really mean and divisive. These things are all more important than good policy.

So the best response is to comply with the criminals?? Welland man broke into a home and sexually assaulted a child, Niagara police say https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/child-sexual-assault-welland-1.7623874

This is another image from the guidelines the Alberta govt put out.

Here is just one image from one of the books actually referenced in Danielle Smith's guidelines. Pretty educational stuff, eh. The real question is why you two support this sort of thing.

Danielle Smith did not ban A Handmaid's Tale. One school board decided to, but classic books like that are clearly not what she was talking about. She gave examples of the books they did not think were appropriate in elementary schools, a lot of them graphic novels with things like fellatio portrayed. Do you think that is essential reading in elementary school? The only reason the bill is paused is because they have to revise it to make it more understandable to the people who are being (most likely deliberately) obtuse about it.

Total misinformation. @eyeball doesn't lock his doors so it can't be happening.

I think they should go even further, make it more complex, and turn it into a challenging and fun scavenger hunt. 20 signatures from unemployed transgender exterminators, 10 from left-handed lesbians with learning disabilities, a kiss from a one-eyed, two-spirit elder (video proof required), etc... Then, you have to hop back to NDP headquarters in a burlap sack and whoever gets there first becomes the new leader.

who supported moving Brookfield Asset Management headquarters from Toronto to NYC. As for Crown Royal, it's made in Canada and employs people in Manitoba and Quebec. So yeah, let's boycott them too. Elbows up!

He sure showed them.

Well at least when it comes to candidates collecting signatures. The NDP leadership is underway — and the party is limiting signatures from 'cis' men https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/the-ndp-leadership-is-underway-and-the-party-is-limiting-signatures-from-cis-men/ar-AA1LJO2y

And in each one of those it was a person that committed the crime not the gun. 😉

I'm not looking for anything, Robes.

Yeah, his earlier attempt to do so was shot down. So we will see whether or not this pans out. That said voter ID makes sense.

I don't think we have enough threads about this today.
