Quebec anglo students denounce discrimination
Leafless replied to Leafless's topic in Provincial Politics in Canada
If the majority catered to minority demands, you would have a totally chaotic state. And that is what we have now, a totally chaotic state. The horse is riding in the cart! -
Quebec anglo students denounce discrimination
Leafless replied to Leafless's topic in Provincial Politics in Canada
I would say any language law dictated or allowed by any Canadian government that overrides the majority language of the country is racist. Not only that but presents a great burden on the Canadian economy to support yet another culture and all the legalities that go with it. It seems that the Nunavut are not happy with their own proposed language laws and want something that the French language in Quebec enjoys. http://www.nunatsiaq.com/archives/2007/706.../70629_253.html You can check out the proposed language legislation, Bill-6, Numavut Official languages Act. http://www.assembly.nu.ca/english/bills/current.html -

Well I am waiting , prove me wrong. What I post is factual information. If so, why is Quebec not officially bilingual. They started all this language crapolla. -
Duceppe to make French his priority in Parliament
Leafless replied to Leafless's topic in Provincial Politics in Canada
Israel is a country, Quebec is not. Besides, not even our own federal government recognizes French as being 'official' in the province of Quebec. -

These hospitals are provincially funded for a reason as originally they were paid for by the English and privately funded. Quebec has taken them over and these hospitals also serve the general French population of Quebec. Good deal I would say, after the English built them. They have forcefully become bilingual hospitals, where as English speaking nurses cannot work there unless they pass Quebec official language proficiency test. They are originally English hospitals taken from the English and transformed into bilingual hospitals to fill the needs of French Quebecers. Well, Ontario cannot steal French hospitals from the French in Ontario and make them bilingual because there are none to steal. Even the one Francophone hospital ( the Montfort) was constructed thanks to the majority English tax paying residents of Ontario even though it also serves as a teaching hospital for QUEBEC DOCTORS as well as serving QUEBEC PATIENTS. English patients are welcome but from the complaints I have heard about staff unable to communicate in English adequately, what English speaking person would want to go to that hospital. Besides, neither Ontario nor Quebec are 'officially bilingual provinces' although Ottawa hospitals in Ontario thanks to a forced municipal bilingual, undemocratic language policy as transformed virtually every Ottawa hospital into a bilingual English/French hospital. Quebec is the more racist naturally, because they do not only steal English hospitals in Quebec, they force hospital staff including English speaking nurses to speak French or be fired. -

And the English paid for these schools and hospitals. That is because they are obliged to by 'Charter Rights'. No they have not. Other provinces are also bound by 'Charter Rights' to provide a French education but where 'Numbers Warrant' and Ontario provides Cadillac services for francophones all paid for by mainly by majority Ontario tax payers. Your dreaming! Quebec is more racist as they are also bound to provide an English education where 'Numbers Warrant' but also add the discriminatory factor that if the parents of the children were raised by a French education anywhere in the world, they MUST send their children to a French school. Its still Nazi Germany in Quebec. -
Canada blocks Commonwealth climate-change deal
Leafless replied to trex's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
I suppose like some U.S. citizens Australian voters are fed up hearing about Iraq and think PM Rudd is going to make the difference. And how did Rudd pull this off: But PM Rudd himself, could closely resemble our own nerdy opposition Liberal leader Stephane Dion: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml...1/24/woz524.xml This of course mirrors faulty Federal Liberal ideology here in Canada and we should be glad we currently have A PM that will not sell out Canada's economic future. -
And the proof is in the pudding with the NCC, playing politics, excluded the face of Lord Durham from the Sparks Street Mall. http://www.canada.com/ottawacitizen/news/s...51-dda722306005 To bad Lord Durhams recommendation failed, which was: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Report_on_the..._America_(1839) If Durhams recommendations succeeded Canada would have not have the English/French conflicts we have to-day with everyone in Canada speaking English in probably a more advanced society then we currently have. Most Quebecers do not realize that it was the 'Quebec Act' that partly legitimized their culture, a culture that did not exist prior to that, since France gave away all rights to the British from the previous French North America.

Who knows as it was never explained other then the fact the country existed from 1867 to 1965 with NO national flag and this represents an acute embarrassment, to all Canadians, who all along thought they were living in a country called Canada.

when will Canadians vote to ratify a constitution?
Leafless replied to no queenslave's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
So, what must do we do to realign our current dysfunctional political system to include a ratified constitution? I can think of nothing short of a revolution. -
And we wonder why third world countries despise the West. People like Dancer and his common denominators.

The Physical Decay Of Christian Churches
Leafless replied to Oleg Bach's topic in Moral & Ethical Issues
Christianity in Canada is basically worn out, degraded in our modern society, mostly, by science and technology Islam on the other hand is still right out of the stone age with its imported followers also from countries with few diversities and not bothered or influenced by modern society. This in my mind creates a potent combination of old time religious values and believes vs. Canada and Canadians, a modern society. I believe Canada will pay dearly for allowing this type of immigration. -

Federalist vs. separatist? Quebecois vs. federalist? I always assumed it was Canadians that the country consisted of and if you refine that on the basis (culture) and in the case of Canada's perpetual conflict, language, it is indeed majority English Canadians vs. minority French Canadians. This of course is what I have always said, brings us back to the continuation, of the 'War on the Plains of Abraham'. -
No it is not. It has 26 seats more than Quebec's guaranteed 75 seats. When they should be getting 21 more seats. http://ottsun.canoe.ca/News/National/2007/...675440-sun.html

Absolutely! Can anyone explain how and when the Quebec standard ( one MP for every 105,000 Canadians living in Quebec came from), a standard B.C. and Alberta adhere to or are allowed to so. http://ottsun.canoe.ca/News/National/2007/...675440-sun.html NO.

All criminals are mentally ill or they would not be criminals. Mentally ill is no excuse for breaking the law. No one enforcing the law has the capacity to determine at an instant who is relatively harmless criminal ill, or who is violently mentally ill. The law simply must be enforced, at all cost, for the protection of members of society and the police officers themselves.

And what does the Maple Leaf stand for? Tolerance and the land of third world immigrants. Selling out the Queen and our beloved Canadian history for Quebec and third rate immigrants. WOW!

You say Canadians born after 1960 have no connection to Canada's British heritage, FALSE. Then those Canadians must be totally ignorant of the fact Canada is STILL a Constitutional Monarchy and Queen Elizabeth is STILL the Queen of Canada and has participated in the significant events in the life of Canada. http://www.parl.gc.ca/information/about/pe...narchy_15-e.htm

Generally speaking, after the buyer is finished paying all associated municipal & school taxes taxes, maintenance and home improvements and depending on market conditions, equity is simply getting your money back for the fruits of your labour and paying your taxes and sometimes this sum is negative. Even in a time of rapid growth one might think in terms of great profit after selling their current home only to find out the new home they intend on buying cancels out this profit ratio and again the buyer is faced with another mortgage.

A sect holes up in a cave waiting for the end of the world.
Leafless replied to Moxie's topic in Moral & Ethical Issues
Gee whiz, that is really chancing it, Borg. How old are you, 85-90? -
How is that? The buyer owns absolutely nothing until every red cent of the mortgage has been paid off. It is? Then it sounds like somebody's getting shafted if you own 'nothing' initially, and it isn't the bank. The bank owns everything initially and did not take any risk. All the risk is with the borrower who owns nothing and pays back a extremely healthy return to a institution that uses other peoples money to finance THEIR GREAT RISK! This is not a business transaction, it is next to gangsterism.

TASER- A SAFE FORM OF POLICE INTERVENTION?
Leafless replied to Sam Steele's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
The company that makes the weapon says it is safe: http://www.canada.com/ottawacitizen/news/n...12-8fe695f6757e I have also seen video productions of individuals self administrating taser shocks, even to ultra sensitive parts of the anatomy even the testicles, albeit with a great amount of pain and squirming in pain on the floor but with no long lasting effects. -
No apology from liberal MP sued by Mulroney
Leafless replied to Leafless's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
It was a forced decision if anything by both Mr. Schreiber and Mr. Mulroney. Shreiber has been calling for an inquiry for years: http://www.mytelus.com/ncp_news/article.en...ticleID=2798392 And Mr. Mulroney applied pressure tactics for an inquiry, leaving Mr. Harper little choice in the matter: With Mr. Dion's desperate attempt to gain credit for the inquiry: http://www.thestar.com/article/276355 -
Mr. Mulroney is suing for $2 million in damages and punitive damages because Mr. Thibault said this: And Mr. Mulroney denied these accusations saying: Is Thibault simply a trouble maker reiterating unproven stale news for political gain? http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/stor...?hub=TopStories

Your definition of 'mainstream' is being a lackey to the 'politically correct' versions of federal/Quebec definitions of meanings to words that already have official meanings that are recognized world wide. Lord Durham was right that Quebcers do not have a culture or history stemming from the existence of a real country with the proof being with the feds and Quebec changing the meanings of words to accommodate Quebec's 'no history or culture'.
