Merlin

The real point is that we need to buy the very best aircraft that will serve Canada for a long time to come and is affordable. The new aircraft should also be compatible with our allies planes. For things like refueling, parts etc. It doesn't need to the F35 but it should meet these needs.

The only side that brings up race and talks about it constantly is the left side. The left is constantly trying to make many issues about race. The left seeks to point out how different we are instead of looking for ways we are alike. I'm not sure if they do this to force a wedge between sides. Is this the same ploy used to show how unions are different from management? I don't know but it wouldn't surprise me.

And a outright ban of fire arms would end gun violence is what you're suggesting. That is extremely naive. The majority of the people who are doing the gun violence aren't registering their guns and are obtaining them illegally.

The chiefs are afraid to open their books. Their books which is all money paid by our government from our taxes. the Indians pay no taxes but the rest of us do and should be able to see how our money is being spent. We have a right to know. if they don't want to tell us then we shouldn't have to give them billions of dollars every year. Why don't these people look after their own people? They're very poor at doing it.

It's absurd to be repeatedly beaten with this white guilt stick. I didn't do anything wrong to the Indian people of Canada so why the hell should I pay for it? Whatever happened happened many generations ago and has nothing to do with me. If they didn't like the treaties then they shouldn't have signed them, simple as that. Billions of dollars are given to the Indian people every year yet since the bands are corrupt very little gets tot the people who need it. Again, not the taxpayers problem, that is a problem for the bands to sort out but they won't because they will not open their books. What do they have to hide? So again what will it take for the Indian people of Canada to stop crying constantly? How much money will it take? This is about money. They want more money, it's always been about money. The public is being duped hopefully yhey will wake up before it's too late and these people take us for everything we got. No amount of money we ever give them will ever make this stop, they will simply invent something else to be in protest about. They are a people who must be victims all the time.

First of all, she's letting herself die. PM Harper has nothing to do with it. She's making that decision herself. The Indians are given Billions of dollars every year which they squander and waste.This isn't about Mother Earth, it's about money. It's always been about money and always will be. Indians are the ones who are racist here not the other people of Canada. We need to abolish the reserve system and treat everyone the same. All Canadians being equal. Not one group being treated as special and different.

Sweatshops are good for the nations that they are in. The people who live in those nations aren't asking the sweatshops to leave, they are asking that more be built. These sweatshops provide wages that are much higher then the national average and much more then can be made by farming.

Atheists are beheaded in Islamic nations.

if PM Harper gives in, he is sending the signal that anytime a group wants to get their own way all they have to do is cry a lot and go on a hunger strike to get its own way. Let her die, she is the one making the choice to not eat, no one is forcing her to do that, no one is starving her. Who cares.

For everyone who is against this proposal I'd like to know what makes you all experts on this matter. Or is it a case of believing what the media tells you and swallowing it whole? We need to trust our governments, that is what we elect them for. They are experts. We are just armchair critics with mostly zero expertise and training on these matters.

What about people who are 100% guilty? Bernardo or Picton types. You think that these people deserve to live?

To all the people who support the Indians at all times. What do you propose we do give the Indians everything they want every time they protest? It will never end, so giving in will do nothing to stop them they'll invent something else to whine about.

Brampton population in 1975 was closer to 100k. But the racial make up was much different, whereas in those days in was almost entirely white and now it is almost entirely non white(60% non white). Highest South Asian population in Canada and second highest proportion of blacks for a town in Canada.

Did the Liberals include the Tories in every decision made in a Tory held riding? Did the Liberals make sure the Tory Mp was on hand for every single spending announcement? I don't remember hearing about it myself. Hrm, seems to me that the Tories are held to a different set of rules then everyone else is...peculiar isn't it?

Nice ad hominem.

Some members here are so rabidly left wing that they cannot even admit when one of their faithful do something wrong. How can you seriously defend this MP's actions? Mp's should set the example, is this the example young Canadians thinking of joining politics should follow? I don't recall the Liberals including the Tory MP's in every decision and announcement made in their riding's yet the Tories should? Why the double standard?

Roughly 4/5 people in society are Christian, coincidence? 100% of the people who are jihadist suicide bombers are Muslim.

Yes we should reserved for special circumstances. Bernardo and Picton come to mind.

300 million guns in the US weren't used to kill people in Newtown so lets punish those people. Great idea.

I am anxious about it. I hope it doesn't end but if it does, I will try to remain happy in the fact that I have tried my best even though my disability has hampered me much of my life.

Sorry but it's true. Lay a gun on the table and tell it to kill. It's the person who does the killing, not the tool employed. He could've just as easily used a knife or a sledgehammer.If his guns were registered under Canada's old registry would the people be any less dead? Will bad guys stop having guns because the government bans them? edit - we don't need knee jerk reactionaries wetting their pants every time something happens.

Guns don't kill people, people kill people. Would the people be any less dead if he had registered his firearms? Plus bad guys will always have guns no matter what the law is.

Uhm, no he isn't. he's criticizing the groups involved.
