The Greens also have a candidate who attended a pro-life rally... don't see any wailing and gnashing of teeth over that.

If the cultists achieve their radical goals, people will starve and die as society collapses.

Petteri Taalas, the secretary-general of the WMO, told Talouselämä magazine that he called for a calm and rational approach to the climate debate, and disagreed with those who are promoting end-of-the-world scenarios. https://www.theepochtimes.com/chief-of-world-meteorological-organization-castigates-climate-alarmists_3073666.html “Now we should stay calm and ponder what is really the solution to this problem,” Taalas told Talouselämä magazine. “It is not going to be the end of the world. The world is just becoming more challenging. In parts of the globe, living conditions are becoming worse, but people have survived in harsh conditions.”

Well, the prof. who wrote that could be losing his job, so much for freedom of expression, even for a Prof. Why can it not be discussed reasonably without fear of reprcussionsÉ https://www.thestar.com/amp/calgary/2019/09/08/heated-arguments-among-mount-royal-university-faculty-after-instructors-op-ed-opposing-diversity.html Part of the dilemma, Peacock explained, is whether or not the op-ed is covered under the principles of academic freedom. The concept came about as a means to allow scholars to pursue or critique controversial topics without risk of losing their positions. Except it isn’t clean-cut: disagreements exist within the academic community over whether this freedom applies just to a scholar’s particular field, or all scholarly material entirely.

A Muslim family that arrived in Canada in 2016 with 10 kids decided to marry off their 15 year old daughter to a co-religionist; in 2018, youth protection intervened following 2 reports of physical and psychological abuse" https://www.journaldemontreal.com/2019/09/09/une-face-sombre-de-limmigration

Hardly, but I'll let this just sit here because... I don't think I've every seen that complete denial before. oh yea what does Hamas manifesto say On the Destruction of Israel: ----------------------------- 'Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.' (Preamble)

The talk about rockets etc. came from a response to my post about Canada/U.S. agreeing to take in thousands of Palestinians which naturally evoked the usual 'it's Israel's fault' or some such thing cos you know, it's just the odd rocket. However, I do agree we need an some immigration based on skills, merit and Canada's economic needs, I disagree with the Liberal plan to raise immigration to over a million in 3 years as I don't believe we have the financial means to absorb that many in that space of time) Generally speaking new immigrants only pay about half as much in income taxes as other Canadians but absorb nearly the same value of gov't services so end of costing taxpayers around $6,000 per immigrant . We have a housing crisis now in Toronto where most immigrants go, shelters are overflowing so more people on the streets and illegal migrants are being housed in hotels. Not to mention our health care system is a mess and IMO is broken (speaking for myself a 15 month wait to see a specialist is unacceptable but that is Ontario reality). We just cannot afford that many more, and cannot afford the migrants crossing illegally, that needs to be stopped ASAP. I would like to see fewer international medical students so seats can be given to Canadian students who want to study medicine as we have a shortage of doctors. I wouldn't object to paying for the skill and certification upgrades to immigrant doctors if they agree to practice outside of Toronto for a min. of 5 years. I think most people are agreeable to a stable reasonable number of skilled immigrants coming in and IMO that would be around 150,000 per year.

Apparently the Editor took it down as he hadn't seen it before it went to print. So much for freedom of speech. archived link https://web.archive.org/web/20190907021958/https://vancouversun.com/opinion/op-ed/mark-hecht-ethnic-diversity-harms-a-countrys-social-trust-economic-well-being-argues-professor

The odd rocket - oh sure... not to mention the tunnels that Israel took down some time ago, no doubt they are rebuilding. https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20190403-hamas-weapons-are-the-focus-of-israel-and-the-regions-targets/ Well, there`s the Palestinian Authority Martyrs Fund operated by the Palestinian Authority (PA) which pays out to the families of Palestinians killed, injured or imprisoned for involvement in attacking, assisting in attacking, or planning to attack Israelis, etc etc. They just stopped heavily armed Palestinians,. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/attempt-by-heavily-armed-palestinians-from-gaza-to-enter-israel-thwarted-army-says-1.7655783 And Hamas spends millions on military https://www.timesofisrael.com/hamas-spends-100-million-a-year-on-military-infrastructure/

Sorry, it was there this morning, try this it`s dated Sept. 6th, 2019 https://theprovince.com/opinion/op-ed/mark-hecht-ethnic-diversity-harms-a-countrys-social-trust-economic-well-being-argues-professor/wcm/b5d62139-257a-41d0-a800-ecad6074340d strange, they must`ve taken it down but it`s still up on my computer so I copied it and attached a .doc It talks about Denmark and how they have had to make changes and requirements for integration. excerpted: Diversity can be a strength or a detriment depending on how it`s handled, it isn't good or bad for the most part, it`s how it`s handled. Canada handles it fairly well but there are challenges that Canada faces but not as strong as other countries. I`d say unity is better than diversity and it`s not racism to discuss all aspects of it. Ethnic diversity can harm social trust and economic well.doc

This article in today's Vancouver Sun took guts to write and is giving some people a headache because of it`s alleged racism Mark Hecht: Ethnic diversity harms a country's social trust, economic well-being - this takes guts. Many people probably agree but are afraid to say so. https://theprovince.com/opinion/op-ed/mark-hecht-ethnic-diversity-harms-a-countrys-social-trust-economic-well-being-argues-professor/wcm/b5d62139-257a-41d0-a800-ecad6074340d OPINION: Canada should say goodbye to diversity, tolerance and inclusion to rebuild trust in one another and start accepting a new norm for immigration policy — compatibility, cohesion and social trust.

They should appeal it, and as you say, it will never be enough and no one is willing to say, it`s enough.

Well, Bernie Sanders has a solution saying that he would support taxpayer-funded programs to provide abortions and birth control for women in developing countries as a measure to combat the climate crisis. Yikes - what`s next eating babies...

Well, these two upstanding males thought they would kill a female relative who left Islam, fortunately they were stopped. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/men-arrests-kidnap-murder-plot-woman-islam-london-coventry-a9093896.html Tarek Fatah a Muslim writer in Toronto has also had death threats against him.

Just because you don't like a source doesn't mean it isn't true, but you are now sounding a bit hysterical.

The page provides links to back up their assertions. just because you only like far left sources is your problem.

Now that is funny. Maybe if Hamas didn't spend all their funding on arms and ways to kill Jews there would emoney to make life better for the people
