  1. Accumulated sick days are a liability to the company, but this is a move other public companies are taking now. Toronto did away with it for new employees in 2009. There has been too much abuse of these sick days which is why the Ont. gov't ended the banking of sick days, so this isn't something new to the CPC.
  2. On this date 151 years ago the Muslim forces set siege to Vienna. They were eventually driven off, but they nearly took the gateway to Western Europe and all that lay beyond. They are trying the same thing today; ISIS is just the reconnaissance party. Once the ISIS or the group that follows it acquire Pakistan's nuclear weapons, Europe will be given terms they can't refuse. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Vienna

  3. Sounds as if you are projecting your own feelings towards a group of people you don't know at all.
  4. Lemmee see - clearly it is increasing the payments but just not as much as Ontario would like

      Ah, maybe go to the thread, read the posts, try to get a handle on the math. Especially that 3% thingy.

      According to the G & M et al sites, Flaherty said the gov’t will ensures transfers will not fall below three per cent during the period of the agreement.

      But Harper is worse than Hitler, so there.

  7. Exactly. Mulroney just said PM Harper should be re-elected based on his economic performance alone.
  8. Another 'deep and profound' comment followed this one... talk about sucking lemons if they don't like the news then trot out the sock puppet and paid trolls meme. <roll eyes>.
  9. Exactly, it's the red Tories who took over the party and destroyed any remnants of the Canadian Alliance, Reform was gone when it morphed into the CA. Mulroney was interviewed again on CBC and has come out saying Harper should be re-elected based on his economic record alone, he also noted “It’s interesting, when I make those complimentary references no attention is paid by the media, but anytime there’s a disagreement we get headlines" http://www.ipolitics.ca/2014/09/09/mulroney-retunes-the-harper-critique/ He also noted in the CBC interview that the cool relationship with the U.S. was pretty much the fault of Pres. Obama.
  10. He is not 'defunding' health care, that's a lie. Health care transfers are going up, just not as much as they want, this year it's up by y $1.8 billion Provinces are always asking for more, always will, nothing new.
  11. Which PM wants to sell out health care to private insurance, do you have proof ? So far the only people selling us out are (my province) Ontario Liberals with their slow but sure defunding of services, even as they receive more money then ever. ( even if it is less then what they want).
  12. Harper for the Nobel Peace Prize !!!

      B’nai Brith CEO to nominate Harper for Nobel Peace Prize - I'm writing to support it now.

      What the hey, Obama got it for nothing, Yassar Arrafat got it, at least this way it will elevate the credibility of the prize.

      I get why fossil fuel companies want people to deny warming evidence. I get why some politicians deny. They need the donations. I don't understand why regular people play this game though. Most of the deniers on this site are bright enough to know their arguments don't hold water, yet they still parrot them. It seems that the studies that show conservatives choose ideology over facts and evidence are true.

  14. Even labour leaders are agreeing that the left wing political correctness lead to ignoring the abuse http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/labour/11065878/Labour-MPs-Left-ignored-sex-abuse.htm A culture of Left-wing political correctness led politicians and officials to ignore the plight of young girls who were being sexually abused by Asian men, Labour figures have warned. http://www.express.co.uk/comment/columnists/leo-mckinstry/504104/Leo-McKinstry-Multiculturalism-to-blame-for-Rotherham-abuse The authorities in Rotherham failed to act because the race-fixated dogma of anti-discrimination meant that they had completely lost their moral bearings and every last vestige of compassion Since the publication of the report, the media has been full of bewildered cries asking why this scandal was allowed to happen. But there is no mystery. The fashionable political orthodoxy that has gripped much of the public sector, especially social work, holds that, in racially prejudiced Britain, ethnic minorities are perpetual victims and white people their oppressors. Immersed in this doctrine the social services and police shamefully refused to confront the reality of predatory Muslim gangs attacking white girls. This week's report admits that dark truth.
  15. I guess the moral of this story is that it is more important to help the victims than worry about accusations of racism. There was a documentary made on this subject in 2004 but was cancelled over the same worries. Maybe if they had shown it then it would have helped stop the future abuse.
  16. It's pretty widespread. Maybe the UK needs a royal commission on why the U.K. police let political correctness stop them from investigating Pakistani grooming gangs. http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/Sixth-man-charged-Bristol-child-sexual/story-19989717-detail/story.html ETA: More raids coming in Manchester http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2738773/Police-plan-mass-raids-sex-gangs-Day-reckoning-hundreds-child-abusers-180-mainly-Asian-men-targeted-Manchester-alone.html The scale of the operations being drawn up across the country is said to be ‘almost beyond comprehension’. The number of victims will make the Rotherham child abuse scandal – in which 1,400 children were abused over a 16-year period – look like the ‘tip of an iceberg’.
  17. Other aboriginals who only want to get their way.
  18. Maybe Triage as in the Groningen Procedure. http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp058026 Dilemmas regarding end-of-life decisions for newborns with a very poor quality of life and presumably unbearable suffering and no hope of improvement are shared by physicians throughout the world. In the Netherlands, obligatory reporting with the aid of a protocol and subsequent assessment of euthanasia in newborns help us to clarify the decision-making process. This approach suits our legal and social culture, but it is unclear to what extent it would be transferable to other countries http://www.downsyndromeprenataltesting.com/gosnell-after-birth-abortion-and-down-syndrome/ A child born with Down syndrome was one of those killed by the Groningen Protocol ---- there are academics who have cited prenatal testing and selective abortion for Down syndrome to argue that not only are Gosnell’s actions not criminal, but morally justifiable.
  19. An article in the Star thinks Ford will win again !!! I just wanna see the Star go into mourning with black borders around the announcement LOL

      You seem to have forgotten to include the substance abuse thingy, which is RoFo's major stumbling block. Which is of course what he want's you to do. He should just stop getting gooned and stupid around people with smartphones.

      Conservatives just love Rob Ford and Rush Limbaugh. Fat guys with drug problems. Can't be a coincidence. Do you own any Chris Farley movies, Scribblet?

      Sure, they all do especially canadians ROTFLOMA

      Who's Chris Farley?

  20. Really - in Canada you say... If you are referring to what they call partial birth abortion which in Canada it's called a Dilation and Extraction (D&X) (intact D&E and only done in very rare circumstances. Have you heard of the Groningen Protococol - Euthanasia in severely ill newborns - well, there is talk about adding Downs Syndrome to this.. http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp058026
  21. Good reply Rue, and the previous one, I posted before I saw it.
  22. Here we go again ... what was that I said hmmm
  23. One would think that prior to the Tory gov't, none of this happened and if we get another Liberal gov't all aboriginal issues will magically disappear because they care - oh so much. Like the cared enough to shelve their own white paper and commissions on the subject.
  24. Rotherham is not an isolated incident, it's the tip of the iceberg, not just a phenomena limited to the UK . as similar incidents in Sweden for example have been highlighted but disregarded by the MSM. One wonders what other crimes have been overlooked for the same reason as p.c. has created a fear of speaking up for fear of being labelled. Tyneside also has a huge problem, 120 men (mainly Pakistani) have been arrested in Operation Sanctuary. They had no problem going after Saville, Rolf Harris and Cliff Richard, why not Rotherham crimes. http://www.northumbria.police.uk/advice_and_information/operation_sanctuary/info/index.asp http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/oxford-child-paedophile-gang-council-chief-joanna-simons-insists-shes-will-not-resign-as-seven-men-are-found-guilty-of-child-rape-trafficking-and-organising-prostitution-8616023.html Rochdale and Oldham nine men jailed - 2012 http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/oxford-child-paedophile-gang-council-chief-joanna-simons-insists-shes-will-not-resign-as-seven-men-are-found-guilty-of-child-rape-trafficking-and-organising-prostitution-8616023.html
  25. Yup... considering that no one has posted anything from Fox it's a weird comment, the BBC and the Times are respected media. I'll wager they haven't read any of it, they just trot out the the usual cries of indignation when someone posts about Muslims, guess we shouldn't post any stories that don't fit their narrative. Some of the earlier stories coming out of the U.K. are proving to be true, http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/crime/10060570/Oxford-grooming-gang-We-will-regret-ignoring-Asian-thugs-who-target-white-girls.html the BBC has been careful http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-22617339
