Ludes Tell me Steve doesn't look like he's fantasizing about Doritos most of the time...

You stole my line....only I was going to say Layton. Anyone ever seen "Boogie Nights"? Ya, he'd fit right in. I love the Count Chocula line. So true. Gilles looks like he's been eating bennys like they're M&Ms. Harper looks like he's been popping 'ludes. May looks like that aunt that you've never seen with a guy, but has a "friend" with her every time you see her.

I'm with Goat on this one. Gilles is by far the best politician out there. If he was for Alberta, I would vote for him.

I just love when people throw this one around. Would you mind adding "intolerant" so he can have as cool a signature as I do? I have my doubts if what is written is what was said, but on the face of it, he did nothing wrong. Posters here talk about stereotyping and making assumptions and then decry them as unfair and racist. Well, what if Whowhere was a muslim and the other guy was white? Ten bucks says your opinions would do an about-face in a nanosecond. He said nothing wrong. This is assuming that what is written is what was actually said. In large corporations, Human Excuses has a lot of stroke to run with things that don't matter and I can see this actually happening.

Congratulations on the new turn of events! It wasn't that long ago you said you were still a student (and student-teacher) and weren't paying income taxes. Welcome to citizenship.

I'm sorry. I should have been more specific. Income taxes.

You will once you start paying taxes.

I'm sure you do.

She is an expensive, useless figurehead representing an even more expensive, useless figurehead. If people like you wouldn't starve if Alberta took it's money and resources and left, we would stand a chance of being able to separate. Don't worry, you can keep the GG and lil' Omar.

As long as "justice" is a bullet in the side of the head for the little terrorist, I support it. And I care too.

Save the taxpayer's money that is wasted on the totally useless GG, and spend it on 50 top quality strippers going on tour for a month. Fine. Send a few male strippers too. Hate to be sexist.

I'd miss his oh-so-sincere, loving looks into the camera when he says, "an NDP opposition will fight for "Working Families". I always get this insane urge to go buy a used car. Hope Jack stays in the debate. Even Greek tragedies had comic relief intermissions.

No, I think he feels that the Canadian "legal" system is so weak that, regardless of his guilt or crime, he would be set free. A lot of people feel that very same way.

Wow. This whole thing sounds kinda familiar when you change just a few words. What's good as a defence for muslims should be just as valid for other Canadians, no? You still support the statement you made above, I assume?

Let's have "White History Month". Then we can get some beer and watch all the "protesters" come out and call us all "bigots", "racists", "bastards", "neocons", "Aryans", "crackers", "nigger-haters", "anti-Muslims", etc, etc, etc.

I was listening to an interview between Dave Rutherford (Corus) and a "representative" from Greyhound yesterday. Seems the problem is that Grey Dog wants $15mil from the feds to fund 50% of the unprofitable routes. Feds said no. It appears that Greyhound is mandated (in an agreement with Ottawa) to service these routes, and that was in exchange for exclusivity in other, more profitable ones. The rep from Greyhound refused to say which ones those were or how they would spend the $15mil. The other difficulty is that Greyhound, although a federal carrier, must apply to each provincial transportation board/branch before it can change a route or adjust a fare. The province has the final say on what changes the bus line can make, short of closing down in that jurisdiction. Dave asked the woman if they would be willing to open up everything to competition in order to get out of the requirement to service those routes. Dead silence. I agree with Dave in that, since Greyhound is a private-publicly traded company, they have the right to operate at a profit. The other side of that is they should give up the exclusive service rights in other areas if they want to pick and choose. This whole thing is starting to remind me of the Air Canada fiascos over the last 25 years.

Nah. Too easy. No trial. No sentence. We should take him to Afghanistan, buy him an expensive house in an affluent part of town, and leave right after having about a dozen Canadian and US soldiers shake his hand in broad daylight. Then we should be able to call it even.

By your definition, every Liberal, Conservative and NDP'r are "bigots". Did you maybe forget to throw in the "...against an identifiable minority" line? How about "...against an identifiable minority that isn't white." Yes. That's better.

C'mon. What are the chances of that? Just because he's white? When "we" do it, you call us racist and refer to it as racial profiling. That's the way the Liberals set it up. When "we" bitch about it, you call us racist. Yes. How do we know? If "we" ask, you call us racist. Ridiculously so. If "we" say that, you call us xenophobic.

There are other reasons why one gets beaten up than 'being black'. My point is ... do we know? There are other reasons why one gets beaten up than 'being muslim'. My point is ... do we know? There are other reasons why one gets beaten up than 'being Somolian'. My point is ... do we know? Apparently, it's only racist if the subject is not white.

How about we let her keep her citizenship card? That'd be fair I think. Watch this become a trend. Travel to a different country. Fabricate difficulty (or even report that you were tortured!) and then when you return (on the taxpayer's dime)...sue the Canadian government (and get paid by...you guessed it...the taxpayers).

And anyone in Canada should give a rat's ass why? If they don't like it, they should quit immigrating here. That'll teach us.

Wow... ...I agree. Weird.

This ought to be funny. Kinda like watching "Wipeout". It'll be a pleasure watching the Convenient Canadian head back to the States in early December.

It boggles the mind why these traitors weren't welcomed home at gunpoint. Leave or be shot for treason. Simple. Not liking the country, or the politics, or the military action is one thing. Actively firing on Canadian troops is not something that happens and should be viewed as okay (until someone yells "car!" and the fighting stops and is forgotten).
