Ya can we get a real news source besides some guy tweeting something? Regardless, even if alive the fan could possibly sue for trying to incite violence on him. And the rapper could sue the fan for trying to steal his shoe lol. What a horribly irresponsible entertainer. I don't think i've seen anything like that in my life.

Trump exposed most of the US mainstream media as subjective and unreliable garbage. The amount of anti-Trump propaganda the US media has put out 24/7 for the last 6 years is extremely disturbing. And it was great for ratings so they doubled-down. American journalism is a joke run by corporate whores.

If the POTUS and his campaign folks are chumming with Russian contacts with links to its government, it would be wise for the FBI to investigate. It's also a fact that most of the mainstream media hates Trump and has been out to undermine him politically since the beginning. He has every right to dislike many media outlets. Funny because he's increased the viewership for many of them and made them a lot of money.

Freedom of Speach Long Gone - COVID
Moonlight Graham replied to cougar's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
"In today's constitutional monarchy, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is Queen of Canada and Canada's Head of State. She is the personal embodiment of the Crown in Canada. In Canada’s system of government, the power to govern is vested in the Crown but is entrusted to the government to exercise on behalf and in the interest of the people." By constitutional convention, the representative of the Crown does whatever we tell them to do. The Crown has no power by constitution, just reserve powers, to act on our behalf. -

Who owns the CBC? It's owned by us, funded by us. It's OUR website. The CBC is the national public broadcaster of Canada, maybe they should start acting like it. -
Liberals to open borders to all refugee claimants
Moonlight Graham replied to Argus's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
The Liberals are idiots if this is true. This country is going straight to hell. -
Democracy in danger in Canada.
Moonlight Graham replied to CITIZEN_2015's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
I'm fine with it as long as they aren't harassing people or blocking emergency vehicles. -

Well either way it doesn't make sense. They should go somewhere political, like city hall. -
Federal Election Poll Tracker.
Moonlight Graham replied to CITIZEN_2015's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
The People's Party are up 2-3 points the last couple of weeks, taking points away from the CPC and making it a statistical dead-heat with CPC and Liberals. But Liberals are still leading in seat projections by about 15 seats: https://338canada.com/ -

I don't understand why you would protest a hospital because you're anti-vax. -
CBC's Rosemary Barton most blatant Trudeau fan!
Moonlight Graham replied to betsy's topic in Media and Broadcasting
She thinks she's so tough and no-nonsense but she's just an arse. -
These are all chidish insults and ad hominems, and reflect a lot more on you and I. They will all be ignored. 1. Just because they don't bend on every demand doesn't mean they are listening. There's 2 french language debates before the election and only 1 in english. They aren't ignoring Quebec, far from it. How many debates are they holding deep in the heart of Alberta or Nunavut? 2. Ridiculous. Why do french or bilingual Quebecois vote for Trudeau over the other non-bloc parties? 3. It's not just money, it's political favours. Remember the Jody Wilson Raybould disaster? 4. What school are you referring to? Also, Ottawa has just made its city officially bilingual inside an unilingual english province. Has Montreal or Gatineau done the same? 5. I don't have any hatred for francophobes/Quebec. But I know a spoiled entitled child when I see one that whines and cries whenever it doesn't get its way until mommy caves. That's not all francophones btw, just you and certain people like you. Thankfully most Quebecers are fairly reasonable.

Misappropriation of Funds and Racist Favour
Moonlight Graham replied to Zeitgeist's topic in Federal Politics in Canada
Affirmative action is a protected right under the Charter. That's right, racism and sexism is specifically protected by the constitution. -
My point was that the Feds don't ignore Quebec, they're constantly kissing their butts. Most of our Prime Ministers are from Quebec. Trudeau's electoral district is a short bike ride from the SNC Lavalin headquarters. The feds throw more bones to Quebec than any other province without a doubt. Francophones get a vast disproportionate # of federal jobs. Virtually everyone in the country living outside Quebec or French New Brunswick would need to spend years in french school to be able to run for PM. "We just want to be respected!". Give me break, all we do is bend over backwards for Quebec francophones. Quebec is treated better by Ottawa than any other province by leaps and bounds. We just want you guys to be happy but you never seem to STFU, you're always whining about something and then hate us for it. I could even stand the whining but then having a province filled with people who hate you, that's annoying. I don't hate francophones at all, but a lot of them walk around with a big chip on their shoulder. Put yourselves in our shoes for 2 seconds, we've been putting ourselves in yours for the last 60 years.

4000 people in Quebec work for SNC-Lavalin. It doesn't matter if this doesn't affect you personally. They're a major corporation that helps the Quebec economy. Oh shut up you whining fool. Ottawa, including opposition parties, is busy right now bending over backwards for Francophones in Quebec over french language laws. But you'll say "that's a good start" and then start whining about the next thing Quebec francophones aren't getting because "Ottawa never listens to us". https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/liberals-table-bill-to-protect-french-in-sweeping-update-to-official-languages-act-1.5471189 https://montrealgazette.com/news/quebec/protecting-french-is-our-job-but-quebec-says-it-will-study-ottawas-plan

Oh STFU. Are you kidding me? Ottawa does more to bend over backwards to Quebec than any other province by orders of magnitude. Quebec is not being ripped off, quite the opposite. Much of the corruption in Ottawa even involves politicians funneling money and favours to Quebec corporations and whatnot. Trudeau dumped his own attorney general to butter the coffers of SNC-Lavalin. How much has Ottawa given to Bombardier? Chretien put a CRA tax centre in his hometown of Shawinigan. Do you remember the sponsorship scandal? The entire federal government bureaucracy in Ottawa (and Gatineau) is a giant job factory for bilingual Quebecois. Quebec politicians have controlled the country for most of the last 50 years. Give me a break with your whining. Imagine if you lived in BC or Saskatchewan how much you'd be whining about being ignored by Ottawa. When was the last Prime Minister from BC?

3 of 9 Justices coming from Quebec is never going to happen and is totally unreasonable. You can't have an equal number of french and english on the SCC, there's 9 justices and you need an odd number to avoid ties in the voting. Quebec should not get special treatment, anything that applies to them should apply to the other provinces.
