  1. Sorry but then I guess the "diagnosis is wrong as she has been able to eat jello and take water. As for your morphine to regulate her breathing???? that is a new one. It was said to regulate her body temperature or that she showed some discomfort.
  2. I my dear Kimmy am not a "leftist" thank you. I am a more balanced and do not appreciate the cold hearted money motivate extreme right that you adhere to.
  3. So, they are not states either. Who cares. They are inhabited by tax paying Canadians on Canadian soil. Their vote should be just as important as any province.
  4. No they are not our ally and protector. The p[resent administration is our biggest liability and their trading practices do not meet international or NAFTA standards.
  5. Now that is a dumb idea. Why should we sell off land that is rich in resources and sandwich us in by the USA.
  6. What IS the point????? I see nothing to be gained for Canada or the territories.
  7. The territories have been there all along. Those who have the vote for the territories are just as knowledgeable as any provincial representative. What next; let's take the vote away from PEI and Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland. They are pretty small and a drain on federal coffers, too. Only the "have" provinces get a vote???
  8. She is a cold nasty twerp. The lady has parents that deserve a little more compassion and respect. Terri deserves better than a slow death by starvation and especially denial of water.
  9. Kimmy you are an arrogant ignorant twit. You think only your opinion matters. You don't understand the word courtesy. As for the father of Tom DeLay; he was on a respirator and in a coma; a much more severe condition that Terri. His death was almost immediate after turning off the respirator and all family members were able to accept the outcome.
  10. I certainly hope so. The USA needs to be counterbalanced by other superpowers; The EU would be probably much preferable to China. It appears that the Bush administration is spending the USA into oblivion and may not remain a superpower for too much longer.
  11. She HAS been able to eat jello. She certainly could take in water or to have an icecube placed against her lips. Why the morphine if she feels no pain.
  12. What really bothers me is that they are not only removing her feed tube; they are refusing to allow her to be given food or water by mouth. Regulating religious services. WHY? Control is the big issue by the husband's side with little compassion for the parents. Now before the poor lady is even dead they are discussing who and when an autopsy will be performed. Planning a quick cremation. No input from Terri's parents are accepted.
  13. I wish I could find the report from the USA Congress complaining that Canada was "Too democratic and had too many rights"
  14. I read enough to know that you do not listen to any REAL news sources. You explained his reasons for always changing his reasons for his illegal invasion of Iraq. I did get my information from many many sources; Canadian, British, and American. I did serious research during that period as I was on a serious, well moderated forum hosted by Canada's Foreign Affairs Dept. I did read articles suggested by those supporting the Bush lead illegal invasion of Iraq. You, my dear Hawk, should take your own advice and find your information from a variety of sources. Don't just read and believe that which suits your narrow outlook.
  15. This is not a leftist attempt to dispose of Terri. Bush despite his "attempts" to "help" Terri passed legislation in Texas to allow the removale of life support to patients despite the wishes to the contrary of the family if they didn't have the money to pay.
  16. Only according to Michael after getting a big settlement and new girlfriend.. That is still in hot dispute. Courts be damned. This would not be their first big mistake.
  17. What a dumb idea. That area is richj in diamonds and fuel for the future. Plus it is essential to our sovereignty and security. Why do you think Denmark and the USA would like to get their hands on the territories; a tax write off????? get real
  18. Yeah; he had to keep inventing new "reasons" whenever the previous ones were proven to be nonsense. Control and oil
  19. There is plenty of proof; unfortunately the UN agreed to allow ?Americans to escape liability for international war crimes. ?????? Fortunately, that will soon come to an end. Never should have been allowed. We do want an international organization to curb the aggression of nations. The USA was instrumental in setting up the UN which it now likes to ignore when ever it disagrees; yet still ask for financial and monetary assistance in cleaning up the mess it made. Invading Iraq has nothing to do with USA security. Iraq posed no threat to the USA. What we don't want is one nation ruling the world. That is a global dictatorship.
  20. That is a very bad and unfair idea to not give representation to our territories. The territories are very important to Canada; holding much of our resources and northern security. No taxation without representation. Who cares what the USA does; this is Canada.
  21. I suspect that this "evidence" has only been considered once and then rubber stamped. I would accept this "evidence" from Michael that his wife wished not to be kept alive in this condition if he had put forth this position prior to finding another love and prior to recieving funds that finally allowed him to be financially independent from the parents. Something he never was during the marriage. Living with her parents or in an apartment provided by them. This should have been a family decision not just the husband"s. Terri's parents provided support financially and morally to Terri and Michael BEFORE and after her health problems. It seems that Michael was quite willing to accept their assistance before he became financially independent because of and after Terri's health crisis. I would agree more with cutting off "artificial life support" if it were simply that; and if she were on more sophisticated life support. How can cutting off artifical life support include denying giving her water or jello by mouth which is possible and whch her family is forbidden to do. We cannot end a loved one's life when they are suffering and in great pain and consciously ask for assistance in allowing them to die. We could be prosecuted for doing so. Terri, from all reports, is not suffering any pain prior to removal of the feeding tube.
  22. It is not misleading. It is a long shot but others with the same or worse CT scans have survived. I would like to see this "evidence"; it all comes from the husband's side and not until after the cash settlement and his finding a new girlfriend that he even mention her wish to be kept off all types of life support. The lady is only on a feeding tube. This type of long drawn out death seems to be cruel and painful; for Terri's parents, for sure and quite possible Terri herself.
  23. Bull s to you to. Open your ears
