and yet that's still the number of Canadians who'd vote for Biden over Trump. Trump, the man who called US service members who get captured/killed/wounded "losers", and who casually suggested we might be able inject bleach into our blood to cure COVID, is the man you consider more presidential. SURE.

The "right-to-return" for the descendants of Palestinian refugees going back to the 1940's is something that most of the Arab peace proposals demand of Israel. If it were allowed, it would make Israel an Arab-majority state. The whole purpose of Israel, as they see it, is to have a Jewish-majority place to live where they're not at the mercy of the whims and attitudes of other ethnicities/religions. That historically hasn't worked well for them.

Still the writer. Anyone who's not mentally disabled should be able to see the problem. If you don't, that's just comedy-fuel for the rest of us. I'd have a problem if a grocery store required me to scan my driver's license and submit myself to an AI facial scan just to buy booze. I'm not too worried that the 19 year old at the counter is going to remember all of my personal details after a quick glance, and then record it in all in a database. 🤡

Well there aren't really any other choices. Trudeau was terrible, Mulroney was less bad, Chretien was okay, Martin we can't really say, Harper was alright and then (for the repeat) Trudeau was terrible again.

He reduced taxes, and expanded spending. We didn't really see much from Harper either. There's no doubt he was miles better than Trudeau, but he was hardly an austerity PM.

and you tuned out, like everyone else, and got on with your day I imagine. Yes, I think so too, but I roll my eyes once a year and move on. I don't come to the internet and talk about how we need White History Month. 😆
-
What does that look like? There are black people on the home screen of your office computer? An email goes out that says, "Something something, black History month"? I think it's a nothingburger.
-
Is anyone forced to celebrate Black History month, or even pay attention to it for that matter? 😑

He's calculated, but operating within a dictatorship where the information that flows to the top has been what Putin wants to hear, rather than the reality. He'd never have invaded Ukraine in the first place if not for the misguided belief it would be over quickly, that the Ukrainians wouldn't resist tooth-and-nail, and that the Russian "bear" was even remotely as capable as everyone had previously understood. Exactly. Whoops. The self-serving delusion that democracies are soft and incapable of showing resolve or defending themselves is one that has led many dictators to their doom.

The $0 product doesn't exist.

The one you mentioned was retarded, and the problem with it is obvious. My idea is for parents to pay attention to their kids, teach them right, and put porn blockers on their and their kids devices if they're convinced that Johnny seeing lady parts will him turn him bad. As Michael said earlier, you don't have to worry about this sort of thing anyways, do you?

He couldn't even get to page 2 of the thread before he busted out the Hitler comparison. Amazing. 🤣 -
Canada Falls Out of Top 10 Freest Places On Earth

Wait...just telling someone they're crying or having a hissy fit online doesn't make it so? Imagine that. 🙄 If only you had any self-awareness.... -

Wait, isn't that called the "Moonbox made me cry support group"? You have the self-awareness of a 10 year old. 🤣 -

and does nothing for the vast majority. I'm not saying I disagree with it, but borrowing and spending with abandon is easy. Of course it's the Liberals, but overspending on frivolity and the worthless enlargement of our public sector bureaucracy (with zero improvements in service levels) has nothing to do with taxation. -

Minority governments are better sometimes, and then sometimes they're not. The NDP spent the recent years enabling bad Liberal policy. "Bb-b-but dental plan" isn't much of a counterweight, because that's just extra emphasis on their biggest failing (spending). -

What's most likely to happen is that the NDP and the Libs will split, and the CPC will get their easy majority. Jaghmeet Singh is a cinderblock anchored to the NDP, and whatever accomplishments he figures he can brag about with pharma and dental, he's still a lousy public speaker, he's still wearing a turban, and he still spent the last number of years propping up the Liberal government.
