....or, the "red necks?"

Jihad is an Islamic tradition based on religion. It is not an invention of the British Empire. https://academic.oup.com/ejil/article/24/1/343/438602 The British Empire though, was the circumstance by which many Muslims made the transition to modernity. http://www.oxfordscholarship.com/view/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780198205647.001.0001/acprof-9780198205647-chapter-17

That's another thing. We already have problems with our own kids getting sucked in through the media (look at school shootings) - why on earth would we want more of people (due to their religion/background) who would be more likely to be radicalized by jihadists? Why do you think those white kids got radicalized? You think white kids don't copycat? All you've got to do is look around you. Just look how many kids (regardless of race) talk like a gangsta? Dress up like a gangsta? How many kids (and parents) wear their ball caps backwards? Wear baggy pants? But those pale in comparison when they copycat blowing themselves up, or doing jihad. So....where do you think radicalization started for a lot of white kids? From someone they know. From someone/something they see. Some kids probably see it as shoot-em-up video games come true! Jihadists do it for religion. Lol. If white kids suddenly get into religion, why on earth don't white kids get radicalized into........Buddhism.......or, Christianity?

And, Democrats want to copy us! Anyway....if Ford will require employers this sudden overhead of extending benefits to their already retired employers - how many busineses can afford it? How many downsizing will there be (which will amount to lay-offs), just so the business can still compete and make a profit? Again, I ask - what's the point of doing it for people who can afford it? Just so they'll have the extra money to go to the Bahamas? Or, take a cruise? In other words, taxpayers subsidize their lifestyles? Being retired is not an automatic gold pass to entitlements. It shouldn't. We've got to make do with what we have - for a lot of us, it means downsizing and a change in lifestyle. Subsidies and any extra financial help by the taxpayers are meant to cover the necessities for those who cannot afford it. That's another point. We already give a universal old-age pension regardless of whether we worked or not. And, who do you think will be the first ones to get a drug benefit from Ford - it'll be those who rely on only this pension cheque, and others who qualify (depending on their earnings). Universal this-and-that, that's socialist mindset!

The answer, I don't know if there'll be major changes. But I do know that he promised dental plan for the low-income seniors. No....it's not to have white teeth. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/ford-dental-seniors-income-low-1.4660745 But, just last March, https://news.ontario.ca/opo/en/2018/03/making-prescription-drugs-free-for-people-65-and-over.html My questions: why does a seniors' drug plan have to be UNIVERSAL? Why should taxpayers pay for those who can afford to pay for them? Why shouldn't we look after those who can't, instead? To pay for everyone isn't sustainable - especially now that Ontario is deeply buried in debts! Lol, we can't even say for sure if we'll have OHIP at all in the near future - never mind universal this-and-that. Wynn was selling a dream to a socialist-bent society, whose heads are in the clouds. The reality is just too alarming to contemplate.

Terror-related charges laid on minor in Kingston, Ontario. Came in as refugee from Syria in 2017. Another man is also under investigations. Didn't take too long, huh? Kingston youth charged in alleged terrorist bomb plot https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-kingston-youth-charged-in-alleged-terrorist-bomb-plot/ Allegedly "vetted" - lol, whatever that means. How many "sleepers" came in from Syria?

JULIO! dancing to this:

Heart-melting lyrics of yesteryears......

Nice try, Kerf....except that you quoted this part....therefore your response was to this:

"you can pray to your god that it dosnt happen again"....... Lol. hahaha I missed this: What do you mean, "again?" It didn't happen with Harper.....but it's happening now! Review what you wrote before you post it. Your'e still stumped.

Give it some time, and I seriously think - what with an apathetic attitude, politically-correct climate - if the mindset of Ontarians don't change (and we keep dumping refugees in Ontario) - Islamic Party will become a major party in Ontario.

Irrelevant. Anyway, what are you on about, "pray it doesn't happen?" Don't you get it? What do you think this thread is all about? It did happen. The gates are open! UNDER JUSTIN TRUDEAU! The evidence speaks for itself. Trudeau is the problem. You're stumped. :shrug:

Nice try. Harper had never done this mockery! Under Harper - we didn't OPEN THE GATES! He was more into efficiency than eye-candy fluff! What point is having a security process in place, if Trudeau disregards it? Didn't he just appoint someone to be a so-called border security minister? What's that position for? Another nonsense spending? https://nationalpost.com/news/politics/appointment-of-new-border-security-minister-meant-to-shore-up-liberal-vulnerability-political-observers Trudeau had caused irregular migration with his tweets! Now, he caused another irregular migration by simply favoring this Saudi girl and disregarding the process that's supposed to be in place. Now, all you got to do is be a social media sensation, and Trudeau will bite like a fish to hook! You think she's the first and the last? TRUDEAU IS THE PROBLEM!

.....deliberately or not, Marcus is wrong trying to compare Trudeau's reckless decisions (refugee/asylum), with the Harper government.

Yes, you are. You not only admit problems with the liberals, but you debate FOR them. Just look how you try to defend and make excuses for them! You may not be a Liberal member - but, yes you are a Liberal supporter!

Whoooooosh. There it went - sailing over your head.

That's why I seriously oppose universal daycare. They wanna get their hands on them kids - as young as they can get them!

You have to wonder why indeed they broke that story. Must be the CBC is getting quite concerned, too! If the CBC feels they have to break this story - Canadians should be truly alarmed by this.

WRONG! Was there ever a time when a person that's considered a concern to our national security ever granted permanent resident status? Was there ever a time during Harper's government wherein this same thing happened? Did Harper government ever make a mockery of our national security? yes, they are! One terrorist is too many. Go ahead, why don't you ask people who'd lost loved ones, or survived a terror attack!

And here's the latest mockery of our security system! https://www.reddeeradvocate.com/opinion/speedy-acceptance-of-saudi-shows-refugee-systems-flaws/

Botched handling of gangster refugee claimant exposes Canada's screening weaknesses https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/gangster-refugee-canada-immigration-screening-1.4943292 Boy, considering these expose' comes from CBC......... .................................the reality must be much more serious than this.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/cbsa-permanent-residency-error-1.4978765 This should be chilling enough. I'm beginning to think like a conspiracy theorist - suspecting a collusion between Trudeau government and Islamists!
