    I expect Romanists will downvote and disagree with my views on Romanism, but I am simply stating the facts of how I see it.  If you can produce any reasoning or evidence on how I am wrong, feel free.

    You're not stating many facts here, Father Brimstone.  You're just obnoxiously mouthing off.

    From what I understand so far, the dam is only partially damaged.

    Oh gosh, partially damaged?

    Collapse of critical Ukrainian dam sparks region-wide evacuations. Here's  what we know - CW Atlanta

    That ain't partial my man.  That's a full and catastrophic failure.

    The reservoir apparently provides fresh water to Crimea. Now why would the Russians want to cut off fresh water to Crimea?

    They don't want to cut off water from Crimea.  They want to keep Ukrainian troops from crossing the river, and also the dam (which was also a road bridge).  Tucker didn't talk about that, did he?  

    As for Ukraine, if they wanted to cut off fresh water to Crimea, they'd blow up the fresh water channel to Crimea, not the bridge/dam.

    HIMARS doesn't carry a warhead anywhere near large enough to take out a concrete dam.

    Operation Chastise.

    I was going to say something about that, but figured it was going to be wasted on anyone whose knowledge of history and whose reasoning skills are poor enough to believe Russian propaganda.  
     

    The Allies needed 9000 pound special-designed bombs that detonated underwater and had to be carried by converted super heavy bombers.  
     

    The HIMARS payload is a precision weapon with ~200 pound warheads.  If you needed any proof that Russia is lying about this, it’s that they are claiming a weapon that can’t do the job, did the job.  
     

    A dam is a reinforced concrete fortification meant to hold back millions of tons of water.

    The "value" here, is the potential for Singh to finally make a real statement and be taken for more than Justin's lap dog. But he missed the boat.

    I would like to see an inquiry, and the argument that it can’t be done without giving up state intelligence secrets is bogus.

    That being said, Singh holds the balance of power right now and that’s the best position the NDP has ever been in.

    I mean you're funny - but you're just kind of slow.  He actually performs on command :) and he always knows to come when you call. it's like having your own pet monkey

    Yet we can type one-liners to elicit multi-paragraph rants about how intimidating you are and how crushed and dejected you've decided your opponents are. 

    Hate to tell you, but you're the one performing on-queue.  👌

  6. If the dam had been blown in Spring 2022, the Ukrainians would have been a fair guess.  Today, at the beginning of their counter-offensive, it's exceedingly likely to have been the Russians.  You blow up dams to keep people out and/or cover a retreat.  That's land-war 101.

    "One" is not a lot :)  Unless we're talking about murders.

    Wooopsie - triggered leftie got triggered :)   I know how much you hate being shown how ... ummm.... less than smart you are.  I really shouldn't do it to you so often.

    But - i do find it highly amusing that you missed the clueless irony of accusing me of clueless irony for pointing out your clueless irony LOL!!!!!!

    Stay classy big guy :) 

    Triggered?  🤨  There's that projection again.  

    The only thing more pathetic than a no life loser wasting his day trolling internet forums is when he's not even good at it.

    Not them! You wanna pay for this insanity...do it. But I think every dime spent on this fiasco is dumb dumb dumb.

    Ahhh!!! Russia's comin' to destroy civilization! Ahhh!!!

    Pfft...

    Thankfully nobody gives a shit what a deluded smooth-brain thinks or says.  "Aaaah! Make-believe bioweapon labs!  Tucker Carlson said so!  Europe's going to freeze!  Neo-Nazis AAHh!"

    All we need to know about your viewpoint on this is right there, clown.

    Yup...I knew you'd fail, because I have said over and over...I have zero affinity for either of them. All I care about is that thousands don't die and thousands more don't get their limbs blown off...for some farce of a war.

    Yet we'll always have this to go by:

    It's comically dumb to have you say shit like this, and spend as much energy as you have criticizing all of Putin's enemies (while offering not a single criticism for him) and then tell us that you're impartial.

    Biden keeps throwing billions at it and the course never changes. Why? Because its a real military facing a bunch of neo-Nazis and kids they grab off the streets or right out of classes now.

    You talk about reality and then natter off deluded nonsense like this.  🤡

    But you're to simple to fathom that. To a simple mind...its a simple choice. One side or the other.

    Your 10-IQ take.     🤡

    Thanks for the laughs, you absolutely mind-warped clown.

    OK...you peter off and come back with a quote from me that says "Putin is the good guy!"

    I don't need a direct quote.  The fact that you've spent the last year blaming everyone but Putin for his invasion of Ukraine, parroted his absurd propaganda and gleefully cheered for Ukrainian suffering is all we need:

    That you're too much of a coward to actually admit it is on you, but it does match your ignorance and foolishness with an obvious weakness of character.

    Or...trash your account and leave with your lyin' ass tail between your legs.

    Lets see if you have even an ounce of honour.

    You don't even know what honour means, clown.

    Ya...I realize that dopey simpletons might not be able to distinguish between facing reality and simple binary choices. But hey...y'are wut y'are...right?

    Reality?  What does that have to do with your worldview?

    Trump won the election!

    Putin is the good guy!

    Bioweapon labs in Ukraine!

    Syrian, Iranian and Lebanese news are reliable sources of information!

  12. Statistics Canada reports are not usually to be relied on for these sorts of things.  Leading private/corp economists may look at the data, but they're always digging deeper.  Statistics Canada is not the one to call a recession.  Look at this:

    PMI.thumb.png.8a4ae68566f1ab1e10f41f1140c6e021.png

    TLDR of this chart is the outlook for corporate executives on whether they expect to be expanding and hiring in the near future vs the opposite.  Green is good, red is bad, and if we're not in a recession already we probably will be soon.  

    That being said, it's probably going to be a really light one.
