Israeli raid on Gaza aid flotilla broke law - UN probe
scribblet replied to naomiglover's topic in The Rest of the World
What else to expect from that anti semetic group which lives to demonize Israel. I'll wait for Israel's own internal report. http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/israel-presses-un-to-stall-debate-on-biased-gaza-flotilla-report-1.315463 http://elderofziyon.blogspot.com/2010/09/new-turkish-book-on-mavi-marmara.html this is what Israel is up against http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3947257,00.html 10th rockets for New Year http://www.jpost.com/Israel/Article.aspx?id=187904 -
A Carleton U. Prof. has released a report which suggests that a nationwide free drug coverage plan, or Pharmacare, similar to medicare, which he says the government can afford by making changes to the current system including national bulk purchasing of drugs. What do you think, can we afford it, and how will we pay for it. One of the questions on the CARP site is Some people suggest that a government run national bulk purchase program would put too much control in the hands of the government, and be bad for the private sector. Do you agree with this concern? My answer is yes, too much power to the gov't. http://www.carp.ca/advocacy/adv-article-display.cfm?documentID=5077 cont...

It's just an automated response, bet it wasn't even read. I don't believe the CPC vote was whipped and neither was the NDP although pressure was definitely applied. Of course after after Ignatieff accuses Harper of being a maniacal micro manager, now he whips the vote. No pressure on the NDP tho LOL http://thechronicleherald.ca/Front/1203438.html

It was done through a private member's bill because usually they are free votes, and not whipped.

And you thought the Tories were going to use the issue hmmmm didn't take long for the Libs to get at it. http://thealbertaardvark.blogspot.com/2010/09/that-didnt-take-long.html

Israel's atrocities - oh right - gotcha - Hamas and other terrorists haven't committed any or attacked Israeli citizens with impunity... naw, never of course.

Yup, but I wonder how much money they get for Canadian issues is from Canadian donors, registered third parties have to use Canadian donations. The Harper haters are only parroting the media narrative on whatever the issue of the day is and Harper's reactions etc., they repeat it so often they come to believe it. Some of the stuff I read on a particular radical left wing sites has me wondering if they are living on another planet (and some on here). BTW, I started sending out emails re: Cukier and grants etc. this is the only reply I've received so far Le français suit. Cute eh... bet it was never even read, it's just an automated response.

Ignatieff needs lesson in statesmanship
scribblet replied to capricorn's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Done like dinner - as in Ignatieff I'm surprised they haven't turfed him out yet and anointed Bob Rae - -
Doubt it, he'll wait until spring, when I think there has to be an election ?
-
I put my money where my mouth is a couple of weeks ago LOL One thing that really disgusts me is the spin Ignatieff is putting on this, ergo if you want to do away the long-gun registry you are condoning domestic violence. Really, what a croc of you know what !!!

Three time loser , is Smitherman done forever ?
scribblet replied to Dog's topic in Local Politics in Canada
I doubt he's done, if he loses I bet he'll run again, maybe Federally this time. -
There's a good piece here which says it better than I can. And the beat goes on. http://www.stcatharinesstandard.ca/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=2767975

scribblet replied to Radsickle's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Did anyone see this today, no big surprise, the CBC's agenda is showing again. http://www.torontosun.com/news/canada/2010/09/21/15430071.html http://www.torontosun.com/news/canada/2010/09/21/15430071.html -
Wouldn't surprise me either.

Toronto Municipal Elections 2010
scribblet replied to August1991's topic in Local Politics in Canada
LOL aw come on, it would be worth anything to get the lefties in a snit. Don't forget he's only one vote, he can't do too much without councils's co-operation - so won't it be fun watching this if he gets in LoL -
Is Avaaz An Unregistered Lobbiest
scribblet replied to scribblet's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
LOL gosh - may be it is he, trolling on MLW - say it isn't so -
Symbolics - sheez thanks for an explanation I should've read more closely, although it isn't clear. Yechiel, who said, “I accept upon myself the lashing for my sins,” was ordered to stand by a wooden poll with his head facing north (“from whence the evil inclination comes”), his hands tied with a azure-colored rope (“a symbol of mercy”), and served his “sentence.” I suspect this entertainer was going for some publicity LOL ( is that a wooden pole? ) or where they taking a poll LOL

scribblet replied to capricorn's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Seems so, one would think he could get over his partisanship and welcome this seat. Considering Canada is earning more respect and attention internationally he's shooting himself in the foot LoL -
Is Avaaz An Unregistered Lobbiest
scribblet replied to scribblet's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Untruthful - To say the least. It's quite plain that they are not Canadian so their involvement in such a petition is a puzzlement, unless there is a something else at play here. Are they now sending in their American representatives to troll on Canadian forums? Isn't moveon.org an agency of Soros - a joint venture so to speak, which is involved with Avaaz ? One has to question the motives of American orgs. such as these getting involved with Canadian politics and why Americans would be so interested ! -
hmmmm
-
I too would like to know if this was in Israel and if it is within Israeli law, if it is, I'm surprised.
-
They should've made the registry a confidence vote then they could've put up or shut up.
