CBC? Why I am paying for death and destruction in Europe?

I quickly read through this thread. Wow. ==== I reckon Biden will do as LBJ. Johnson waited to New Hampshire - then resigned. Biden will wait to South Carolina.

I have nothing against either group. Duplessis avait tort. On est ce qu'on est. But I do not want to live in a society dictated by a small minority.

Woody Allen described life as distraction. Cruises, card games. I think Richard Nixon said the same.

The lie? As an individual, it is good to live in a society where people are honest.

In Quebec, the Caisse was used to build the REM. An APP would make the road between Edmonton and Calgary like Germany - three lanes, and like the 407., paid. On the left lane, drive as fast as you want!

At present, according to some calculations, the APP would have Cdn $350 billion. The Norwegian Pension Fund has about $US 1.5 trillion, In Quebec, the Caisse has about $300 billion. These are fictional numbers. They are paper claims on real assets. ==== There is a fundamental misunderstanding of current macroeconomic theory.

"Biggest lie"? Many people told me many lies. And many people told me many truths.

I generally think that individuals are honest. In my world, we get along. I trust others. ==== Religion and language have nothing to do with it.

This current Canadian federal government is not a majority. I am not wrong about its stability. Let's see.

We Canadians change our politicians every so often. I like our federal system. To me, I like the idea that a federal politician can speak to everyone.

NDP? You don't understand federal Canada.

We Canadians respect the minority. Years ago, a Protestant voted for a Catholic And perhaps more important, in American-speak, a black guy voted white. Myata, there's your answer. ==== I sincerely believe that Canada is a model to the world. Well, the Austrian-Hungarian regime was also .

Michael, we Canadians on average live better, Why? We live in a federal state.

Well said. ==== But the people in the NDP and the Bloc?

In Canada, we have two types of federal elections: fall and spring. We do not have winter elections - except when a minority government is defeated..

People forget that this federal government relies on two parties -BQ, NDP. Justin Trudeau does not have a majority government. ==== I reckon that his government will fall soon. We will have a winter federal election. Like 1980.

The BQ will vote with the federal Liberals. This vote is meaningless. ===== Soon, the NDP and BQ will vote against the federal Liberals. Take note!

We Canadians get along. Been there, done that. ===== Survive? No, we get along.

Episode 5. (The CBC must make this series available in high definition, with subtitles, without cost, to the world.) We paid for it.

Legault offers 15% over 5 years - more or less. But no COLA. https://ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/2022235/front-commun-syndical-lebel-offre ==== What a bun fight.

The federal government has the right to tax as it wishes. But Section 92 of our Constitution has always been a problem. ==== Quebec (Legault) may intervene on the side of Saskatchewan (Moe). What a country!

Disagree. 1. Europe? We Americans get along. 2. America is a large continent. And we get along. ===== If the cost of world peace is a few million more people in America, i have no objection.

I checked the data. Real GDP per capita in 2020 is about twice 1970. We Canadians, on average, are twice better off. And in Canada, there is almost no risk. ==== Imagine someone in Cambodia in 1970 Or China.

You current Americans are obsessed with "appeasement". You ignore how a civilised world collapsed in 1914. Previous presidents -guys (JFK, NIixon)) who fought in the 1940s- worried more about the former. ==== The war did not start in 1939 (Canada, Poland) or 1941 (US, Russia). It started in 1914. And lasted to 1945. Like the Thirty Years War.
