  1. The hypocrisy and hate on full display yet again. How did the left become so radicalized?
  2. Can you name some examples of white privilege?
  3. Search Recent Findings on Somali Cash Movements from the US Federal investigations have uncovered significant amounts of cash—approximately $700 million—being flagged while leaving the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport over the past two years, much of it connected to members of the Somali community. Probably just one source of Al-Shabaab's funding.
  4. Is this how Somalis normally travel? https://www.msn.com/en-us/crime/general/suitcases-filled-with-millions-in-cash-flew-out-of-msp-airport-ex-tsa-agent-connects-dots-years-later/ar-AA1Sa7DD Robo, how do people that are far more likely to be collecting benefits than have legit jobs manage to acquire millions of dollars in cash?
  5. What do Somalis pack when they travel back to Somalia?
  6. You couldn't be bothered to even watch the video posted above? It's only 32 seconds long. But your mind was already made up wasn't it?
  7. The Supreme Court of Canada has ruled in cases such as R. v. Pham that courts may consider the immigration status and potential deportation consequences when sentencing. This ruling has led to instances of non-citizens receiving lighter sentences, which critics argue creates a "two-tier" justice system, favoring non-citizens over Canadian citizens. https://torontosun.com/opinion/editorials/editorial-non-citizens-get-out-of-jail-free Canada is just like the UK when it comes to two-tier justice. Number of non-Canadian federal inmates continues to rise While Public Safety Canada's data was incomplete, Jamaicans and Indians were the largest reported non-citizens in Canadian custody While the numbers of Canadian citizens held in federal prisons continue a downward trend, populations of non-Canadians behind bars continues to rise. https://torontosun.com/news/national/number-of-non-canadian-federal-inmates-continues-to-rise
  8. I think I have a right to complain after ten years of mediocrity and scandals from this government. Slogans? BUILD CANADA STRONG! ELBOWS UP!
  9. This would not have happened if this person had simply stood where he was instead of aggressively running right up to an officer. That's it.
  10. In the video, the guy ran right up to the officer and for obvious reasons, that officer is on high alert. It is not in any way, shape or form, a good idea to run up to a law enforcement officer at any time, especially while they are conducting operations. His actions clearly pose an immediate threat.
  11. I'm Donald J Trump and I approve this message.
  12. Ok. Let's compare Canada to India instead............now we look pretty damn good! (India, our number one source of immigrants who integrate seamlessly with us) Yes, things could be worse, but they could also be better. I am one of the fortunate one's. There has been a 17.5% increase in homelessness in this country over the last ten years, try telling them how great things are.
  13. There is some new audio where Renee Good's partner is heard to cry out after the shooting "Why did you have real bullets?" and "It's my fault, I made her come down here! It's my fault!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvkgR7-XdJI (17:28) It is tragic that Good lost her life of course, but how on earth could someone think that ICE agents would not have real ammo in their firearms??
  14. Lack of alternative policy? It's there, you just dismiss all of it outright even though you can't seem to grasp that the policies of the current government, which has been in power for 10 years, are failing. Conservative policy Policy Focus Details Fiscal Responsibility Emphasis on balanced budgets and reducing the national debt through controlled spending. Taxation Proposals for tax reductions, particularly for small businesses and families, to stimulate investment and consumption. Free Markets Support for free trade agreements and reducing trade barriers to encourage international commerce. Economic Growth Investment in infrastructure and technology to boost productivity and job creation. Energy Policy Advocacy for energy independence, supporting the oil and gas sector, and promoting energy exports. Regulation Reducing red tape and regulations to promote entrepreneurship and business growth. Welfare Policies A focus on reducing welfare dependency and promoting employment through targeted support programs. The debt has soared under the Liberals as have certain certain kinds of crime, homelessness. But you choose to ignore all that
  15. Mark Carney moved Brookfield headquarters to New York as I'm sure you are aware of. The list of his Brookfield shares is publicly available. Blind trust? Carney knows which companies he has shares in and which policy initiatives will make him a lot of money. Heat pumps, modular homes, nuclear reactors, rental properties etc.
  16. Is there much difference between Clinton and Trump on the subject of illegal immigration? Why is Trump deemed hateful for his stance while Bill Clinton never was? How about this Democrat?(Senator at the time)
  17. The illegal immigrants would tend to go where the sanctuary cities are, would they not? It's a pity that Democrats did a 180 on border security over time because most of this entire illegal immigrant mess might have been avoided.
  18. When I made the comment about which country Carney is placing his bets on, obviously I was referring to the fact that he has over 90% of his Brookfield investments are with American companies. And I believe his main focus is growing his Brookfield investments.
  19. The presidents radio address which seems pretty reasonable. "This morning I want to talk with you about the problem of illegal immigration. It's a problem our administration inherited, and it's a very serious one. It costs the taxpayers of the United States a lot of money, and it's unfair to Americans who are working every day to pay their own bills. It's also unfair to a lot of people who have waited in line for years and years in other countries to be legal immigrants. Our Nation was built by immigrants. People from every region of the world have made lasting and important contributions to our society. We support legal immigration. In fact, we're doing what we can to speed up the process for people who do apply for citizenship when they're here legally. But we won't tolerate immigration by people whose first act is to break the law as they enter our country. We must continue to do everything we can to strengthen our borders, enforce our laws, and remove illegal aliens from our country." "Now, let me talk a little bit about increasing deportations. We want to focus on the criminal population or on those who are charged with crimes but who are here illegally. Every day, illegal aliens show up in court who are charged. Some are guilty, and surely, some are innocent. Some go to jail, and some don't. But they're all illegal aliens, and whether they're innocent or guilty of the crime they're charged with in court, they're still here illegally and they should be sent out of the country. If they're sentenced to jail, they should go to jail. But then after their term is over, they should be removed from the United States." Bill Clinton https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/the-presidents-radio-address-317
  20. It was a shameful action. Canada also had internment camps for the Japanese during that time and it lasted until 1949. It was Mulroney that issued a formal apology in 1988.
  21. Isn't it kind of obvious which country Carney has placed his bets on?🤔 Which countries should we be comparing ourselves to since we don't stack up too well against our geographical neighbor too well, certainly in terms of per capita GDP?
  22. Poilievre helped start a company in 2003 called 3D Contact. Was there any difference between O'Toole and Justin Trudeau besides the hair? People keep saying Poilievre is unelectable, and in a sense that's true as long as leftist focus only on personality instead of actual policies or heaven forbid, the poor record of the Liberals since 2015. But PP did get much better results than the red tory O'Toole did. O'Toole vs Poilievre election results: Election Year Leader Seats Won Popular Vote Vote Percentage Seat Change 2021 Erin O'Toole 119 5,747,410 33.74% -2 2025 Pierre Poilievre 144 8,113,484 41.31% +25
  23. Comparison of Canada and U.S. Economic Performance Since 2015 Since 2015, Canada's economy has generally lagged behind that of the United States across multiple metrics, particularly in terms of real GDP growth and GDP per capita. I don't expect any positives from Carney since basically, it's the same team with a new coach. By and large, the policies are the same. The debt will continue to soar. Unemployment will be higher than in the US. No signs yet that grocery prices are coming down. Carney doesn't seem to be even slightly concerned about getting a deal done with the US. (maybe that's because he is personally so heavily invested in that country?) But as long as there are just enough voters who vote based on perceived likeability of the opposition leader, while they ignore our mediocre economy, Carney will stay in power.
  24. In a nutshell, the fact that Renee Good wasn't black really makes it hard for the left to create a new George Floyd.
  25. That's a really long list. And yet, for all that... Canada's economy contracted in 2025, experiencing significant fluctuations throughout the year. Economic Performance Overview Q1 2025: The economy initially showed some resilience, with positive growth. Q2 2025: There was a notable decline, with the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) contracting by 1.6% (annualized) due to sharp drops in goods exports to the U.S. and weakened business investment. Q3 2025: The economy rebounded somewhat, experiencing a growth of 0.6% over the previous quarter, but this was still reflective of previous contractions. Q4 2025: Early signs indicated that the economy was likely to shrink slightly again, mainly due to a 0.3% contraction in October, marking the steepest decline in nearly three years.
