Chimpanzees are not hominids; a person is a human or organization with legal rights and duties, any judge who rules in her favour belongs in an institution.

European Court agrees to hear chimp's plea for human rights The Leftards living in Yesterday's Continent have outdone themselves.

Leftards have difficulty understanding politics.

Police arrest 22-year-old after explosion in Exeter shopping centre Man injured after nail bomb explodes in city centre restaurant Apparently the bomber went into the washroom of a packed restaurant in a mall to arm a nail bomb, and the detonator went off in his face without actually detonating the bomb.

There have been far too many questionable antics by members of the CHRC over the past several years, poor leadership, and lack of accountability are the probably causes, had the Liberals been in power, I would have wrote that they would have to had to do a major shake-up of this organization.

Harper has all the evidence he needs for a shake up at CHRC.

Mikel Duffy Live Be careful what you write on line, it may come back to haunt you. The title of this thread was changed to RCMP Investigates Human Rights Commision, alleged hacking by CHRC employee. It used to be: CHRC | Do as I say, not as I do. The thread has also be moved to the Federal Politics section. It was originally placed in the International Politics > The Rest of the World section.

The silent majority is now calling the shots; attitudes towards patriotism will change for the better.

They should be charged with treason. They are Canadian citizens and owe allegiance to this country, but have betrayed us by committing or supporting overt acts against Canada.

Combatants fourteen years and under are considered child-soldiers under international law; Omar Khadr was fifteen when he was captured and charged with murder.

Khadr was an unlawful combatant, he was not a member of any nation's military force and, therefore, should not be entitled to prisoner-of-war status, nor is he entitled to child-soldier status as our liberal press would like everyone to believe.

She should be sitting in a cell next to her two brothers in US custody.

We also have a permanent military base in the UAE, the price one pays for being a G8 country, it's time we start pulling our weight in the world.

They could be off their meds.

If we don't we lose the expertise; this is exactly what happen when the Avro Arrow was cancelled, many of our best engineers moved to the States to work in the space program.

The military no longer has an age restriction; thirty and forty-year-old in good physical condition are being recruited and proving to be excellent soldiers.

Chretien went to the ends of the earth for Khadar's father and used his influence to have him released from an Egyptian prison. Had he not the Egyptians would have probably executed him and save the world a lot of future grief. Our Left leaning press likes to paint a picture of poor Omar Khadar the child soldier; a person is only considered a child soldier if they are under the age of fifteen. Omar was fifteen and an active member of al-Qaeda as were his two brothers and father. I hope he is eventually sentenced to the supermax prison in Colorado and lives until his nineties. Seventy-five years of twenty-three hours per day in solitary is what he deserves.

Ten years is not considered old for a warship, these are not GM built vehicles.

Canada has 3 Iroquois class destroyers (280's) that were built in 1972/73, these are similar to the American Spruance class destroyer still in use today; we have 12 Halifax class frigates that were built between 1992 and 1996; 4 Victoria class submarines the Liberals purchased from the RN built between 1990 and 1993; 12 Kingston class coastal defense ships built between 1996 and 1999; 2 repleshment ships built in 1969/70 (replacements are on the drawing boards); auxilary vessels: HMCS Quest built in 1969, HMCS Orca built in 2006; and 21 tugs and diving tenders that are relatively new. Equally important, both coasts have modern dockyards with top notch facilities. Where are all the 40-year-old rusted out destroyers? What the Canadian military needs is modern aircraft.

All new ships have design flaws that are eventually corrected, why would be give up well paying jobs to the US or Britain?

I'm retired from the Navy, most of our newer ships were commissioned in the mid 1990's. Three 280's will be 40-years-old in 2012, the Americans are using similar type destroyers that are nearly as old. When I was in Australian in 1986 we tied up behind the USS Missouri, a WWII era battleship, it was armed with cruise missiles. It's is the equipment in a ship that matters, not the ship's age.

Canada has been designing and building its own destroyers for the more than sixty years, when the American Spruance-class destroyers was launched it looked a lot like our 280-class destroyers built in the 1970's.

Why would be buy ships from another nation when we have the ability to design-build ourselves. In the early 1980's the Americans offered us its Spruance-class destroyers, we turned down and built our own destroyers because had we accepted the American offer we would have had to do all refits in the US at the cost of Canadian jobs. Halifax, St. John and Quebec city have world class ship building facilities.
