  1. Isn’t that what the dyslexic agnostic said? Is there a dog?
  2. Canadians pay taxes based on their residency, not their citizenship. We could do like the US and make Canadians subject to tax on their world wide income regardless of where they live. Make Canadian citizenship something worth paying for. Betcha that would put a crimp in birth tourism.The point is, our system is being gamed by people who have no real interest in this country.
  3. The rich kid will come back to invest in real estate, then head back to Hong Kong where he pays 15% tax. His Canadian citizenship will just be a parachute in case things go south in China or where ever else he came from. He can then use that citizenship to get his parents into the country.
  4. When it comes to unconditional love, no human can match a dog.
  5. They aren't here to be residents and pay taxes, they came to get a kid a dual citizenship and go back where they came from. Nothing more.
  6. Trump tells troops how great he is on Thanksgiving
  7. 97% of the US dairy market is protected by an average 20% tariff. Over 10% of the Canadian market is open to foreign competition tariff free.
  8. The Canadian metal tariffs will be lifted a minute after the Americans lift theirs.
  9. Where does it leave the world? We dump all the dispute mechanisms when it comes to trade and it becomes a free for all? The WTO is going to review the US mental tariffs. If they find against the US will it get rid of them? If they find for the US, that means every country in the world will be free to use national security as an excuse to impose tariffs. Trump claims to want a tariff free world but his actions are achieving the opposite, which I suspect is what he really wants.
  10. Jordan Peele Fake Obama Speech
  11. I think it is odd that he was the only one to hear this and that it magically disappeared before anyone else did. Especially from the bunch that is continually chanting "FAKE NEWS". That's the problem with partisanship, critical thinking disappears.
  12. Ya, they are, now piss off Yank.
  13. Sure, Callesto, a GOP strategist was the only one to ask their Echo who Acosta was and the only one to get a reply that was magically fixed. Forgive me if I'm sceptical.
  14. If Trump didn't know who Duke was during the eighties and nineties, he was living under a rock. Duke was big news in Canada even. Of course Trump was full of shit because he absolutely did know who Duke was. 1991 2000 As soon as Trump announced his candidacy, his memory of Duke just disappeared. Trump lies so much he can't keep track of them, doesn't even bother because he knows his faithful won't flinch no matter how many times he is caught.
  15. Your opinion, I disagree. They both have their legit news people and both have their partisan show people. You don't get any more extreme than Hannity, Pirro and Co. and still be on MSM.
  16. That's the way it does work. BC does not use a ward system in civic politics so councillors are elected on their percentage of the total vote. More people in your neighbourhood means the more influence it will have in an election. Provincially and federally, areas with greater populations do get more seats, with the Maritimes being an exception.
  17. I don't agree that MSNBC and CNN are the same. MSNB is more like the left's FOX. CNN actually gives the right quite a bit of exposure on its panels and as contrbutors. Trumps new AG flunky Whittaker used to be one of them.
  18. The US credit rating is no better than Canada's. "Federalized debt" means print more money. That will only work as long as the US is seen as the worlds reserve currency. Funny how terrible deficits were under Obama but even bigger ones are now OK under Trump.
  19. I stopped paying much attention to Trump awhile ago so you may be right.
  20. Yup, seems to have dropped off Trump’s outrage agenda since the mid terms.
  21. Sure you try and get along. Your posts here are just one long continuing rant about lefties and liberals.
  22. The Big Show is a book written by a French WW2 fighter pilot. Where did I say anything about a book called Third Reich? I did read Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, I think when I was around 17.
