  1. Like I said the legion is a dying institution , todays vets are not interested in the legion as it does not represent their generation not because they are screwed up... There is zero active mining and very little exploration, if any,” says Leigh Fogelman, director at merchant bank Hannam & Partners in London. The bank’s founder, former JP Morgan rainmaker Ian Hannam, has been a long-time investor in Afghanistan through the Afghan Gold and Minerals Company (AGMC). https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-afghanistan-minerals-idUSKCN1B102L Lots of roads, dams, hydro, projects going on, dozens of Canadians have died assisting with the protection of these sites... but they had squat to do with all these new mining adventures you think are going on...there are to many factions in Afghanistan, security is barely existent, without security nothing is getting done with out a huge military presence on the ground...thats and how do they get these products out of the country.... You forget that this country has been at war for over 40 years, its infra structure is almost non existent, we built highways, and all the rest of it to start commence, expanded what once was goat paths into major road ways, we paved them so they could not plant IED's, don't take my word for it goggle that shit....until the country is secure all that mineral wealth will stay in the ground....
  2. The province is looking at widening the reversing falls area, but they have been studying this for decades, widening the falls would take care of most of the flooding that occurs...I grew up here as a kid, we have always had problems every year with flooding, always in the same areas, yes some years a worse than others, but most of those homes that are in your link have always flooded...and yet every year those home owners rebuild in the same place....every year they get hand outs, it's just another form of welfare...if they took it seriously they be gone by now.... I can remember getting 6 to 8 feet of snow every winter, shoveling roofs was a common practice, we had flooding back then and we have flooding today when we get 1/2 that in snow of rain....The dam controls the river levels here well that and the water flow restrictions in St John....that contribute to the flooding....you can call it what you want, We dammed up the river without really doing a full assessment.... and after 50 years they are looking to solve the problem...
  3. Thats reaching a bit is it not.. please provide a source that states this sentence is racially charged....other than the media, who are busting his nuts , mean while Justin gets a free pass for black face, out right lying to Canadians ,and thousands of other things but then again cheery did not pay them 600 mil did he...
  4. Not sure what Cheery statement has to do with India's contribution to WW1 Not sure what it had to do with India at all except someone got butt hurt and decided to have a penis measuring contest in the media.... But sine we got them out why don't we continue with your experiment....67,000 Canadians died in that conflict, 172,950 wounded , 600,000 men and women participated in the war by enlisting as nurses, soldiers and chaplains, with a total population of under 8 million people....to put that into context every town, village, city in Canada has a long list of those that did not return back home... India Over one million Indian troops served overseas, of whom 62,000 died and another 67,000 were wounded. well over 1,000,000 served, out of a population over over 390 million ….and while they did fight honorably no question, wearing the poopy in Canada has nothing to do with India........ The Canadian Poppy represents ALL Canadian soldiers who fought and died in both wars, and it is a symbol of the promise that Canadian citizens made , that we would remember them ( those that gave their lives for this Nation), once again for the snow flakes out there, Canadian soldiers today come in all colors. creeds and religions. now you can put your di**s away... The excuse that poppies are hard to find, is just that an "excuse" this event happens every year, since 1919....IF like the majority of Canadians , you buy more than one, one for your coat, your inside cloths, I'm always losing 3 or 4 etc, once your done with the parade or NOV 11 keep one in a safe place so you will always have one....Bet no one forgets Xmas do they... Anyways it a moot point, it's not forced on anyone, wear what ever you like....or not wear, give thanks or don't give thanks....comes right down to it, It not about Canadians citizens anyways it's about it's soldiers and remembering the fallen. It's a sign of respect, do with it what you want.... The legion is a dyeing institution, A lot of the old vets did not think Afghanistan was a conflict, or war and was not worthy of todays soldiers having the veterans status... had nothing to do with PTSD, as that has been around since man picked up his first club and beat someone with it...it's been called a few names over the ages...but it is all the same thing.. As for that conflict being about oil and uranium, thats a crock of shit....plain and simple, there is no oil pipe lines, there are no new oil wells being drilled or no new mines when we were over there, the country was the wild west show, it was not secure enough for any of that....maybe try another one of those conspiracy theories.... And just for the record, there is no glory in any war...but what do I know...your the expert...
  5. NO the river has been flooding here for over 60 years, it has nothing to do with climate change, during spring the reversing falls restricts the amount of water that can be drained from the ST John river....forcing it to flood up stream....since the reversing falls in a major tourist attraction they are not going to widen it.. Lots of people have been convinced it all is tied into climate change, so they have someone to blame.. so they can make their claims to have their homes repaired from flood damage....Some of these people have had their homes flooded every year for well over 50 years...How many times does it need to happen before the province stops giving these guys money and instead force them to move....
  6. It's not only you but some of the others that have crossed the line in this topic, the others we already know are racist.... second point is your name PPC2019, the PPC already have an image problem, and your racist comments are not doing the party any favors except solidifying their opinions we are ALL racist....we don't need any more racists in the party, your rants are only going to attract more racists, and wingnuts. I'm sure that was not the intention of Mr. Bernier. Nor was it the intent of his platform... 3 rd you didn't stop at racism , you had to throw in the pictures as well, crossing another line... I've read your postings on this topic and didn't appreciate them, and I'm not the only one... as evident by other comments on this post...grow the F*** up...
  7. Come on Reefer, are you now going to tell us all, that the Liberal, NDP , or green plan is going to fix climate change, or make a large enough difference to save the world....I don't see a whole lot of the world working together to solve this issue....lots of talking but no real action, unless you are talking about individuals making change, or taking action....So this is not about which party you voted for ...it's about showing leadership and taking action....and there is none of that here in Canada....
  8. WTF, does that mean, your a moderate racist ?...But this post is taking it to another level, break out the white hats and white blankets , where going to have a fire !!!! I was blown away by some of the remarks made on this post....their not moderately racist ….they are just plain racists to the core, but hey you guys didn't stop there you clearly had to cross the sexist line as well, as long as they are good looking you can tolerate them, atleast spend a week end with them..... And WTF is the white race is heading for extinction ? where in the blue blazes did you get that from Wikipedia !.......WOW even managed to through some science in there as well, should have said 10,000 scientist have signed a paper stating the white race is fu**ed ..... And then the bit about population control ya thats not over the top is it..., maybe we could build some concentration camps....and stuff people of color in ovens and shit... well not the pretty ones.....Thats not moderately racist thats full blown KKK quality right there.
  9. Sorry to let you down, I live in Fredericton NB , where the green party has elected, that should tell you everything..... the PPC party here picked up very little votes, I voted conservative to help to keep the liberals out of town. Who knew that everyone else was voting for the greens...… Had the PPC had a chance I would of voted for them.
  10. your right Marcus I was lazy, but I think you cherry picked your poll....you found one poll that was in line with your argument... but is one poll enough.... https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canadians-favour-limiting-immigration-1.5177814 (June 2019) 63% want government to limit immigration and Minister Ahmed Hussen says he's concerned by the trend http://charlatan.ca/2019/10/immigration-and-canadas-election-2019/ ( oct 2019) 39 per cent think they’re just right, and 40 per cent think that they’re too high.
  11. here are the results of 3 polls which show that in most cases Canadians do not favor higher immigration numbers , many feel they are to high... I think Marcus is being dishonest here with this post....or putting to much faith in them... https://vancouversun.com/news/staff-blogs/what-do-canadians-think-about-immigration-levels-three-poll-results
  12. Please , Lets be honest here we all are concerned with how much taxes we pay and where it goes, and we are already paying higher taxes that are not going to producing any viable results, we also found out that the carbon tax is not fully costed out to meet Paris accord agreed upon numbers , to do that we are going to pay out double of what the max figure was … according to Barbie.... so this is going to cost more than a few thousand dollars....and for the same result ….nothing... If Canadians wanted this climate emergency seriously they would have looked to the green party for results...but they did not, because it involves more sacrifice than they are willing to pay out..... I aware of what the above poll points to, but in reality that did not happen....the fact that the greens only have 3 seats is telling....or should I say the party with the best platform to fight climate change ""if this was a climate emergency" which it is not, life will be on this planet in 10 , 20, 30 years from now.. Until the current governments federal and provincial take climate change seriously , how can we expect the population to.. lets not even talk about all the other countries, that are not interested in doing the same sacrificing their current standard of living. How do you suggest we change minds when there is NO plan of attack, at any level of government there is no incentives for companies to produce in mass qty green tech...What we lack is leadership.... to deliver that incentive for everyone to jump in board....thats not defeatist attitude that is todays reality. what is it that my mother used to say actions speak louder than words, Canadians put their votes into action and quit clearly voted for Barbies climate plan, which does little for anybody....
  13. You can blame the MSM if you want, but , that fact is Canadians wanted Justin more than Scheer….thats the sad part considering everything Justin has done.... I think this election was all about how much can the tax payer pocket... liberals bought and paid for all those votes, in a few weeks we'll see how many promises he plans on keeping... Canadian tax payer is sooo gullible that way.. our memories are 2 seconds long, today they have the morals and values of a politician any ways.... Conservatives should remember the power of MSM, and once they do win, cancel CBC fat ass... buy their own media company ...
  14. Come on westcanman 5 more seats still give Scheer jack shit, 10 more seats would not have done anything …. your man was not up to the job...
  15. Not sure where you got this but as Argus said Total crap...Corporate welfare to the gas and oil sector across candida, was 2.7 bil this year, mean while the same sector had profits of 170 BIL close to 7 % of our total GDP....I'd say they are doing very well , but I'm no accountant....I did leave sources over on the post about Do you support Western Oil & Gas?
  16. If the cons had 56 percent of vote we would not be talking about Justin second term...… the conservatives would be ripping it up like if Toronto won the Stanly cup again.....so I would assume that some of the left thinks the same way. Thats one way to see it, another would be that Canadians do not buy into this climate emergency, and are not willing to spend a lot of time or money on it...the poll does not reflect the numbers of Justins carbon taxs already in place...
  17. There is not a whole lot that anyone can do, there are a lot of private organizations that hunt down posers, and turn them into to authorities , after they are exposed and embarrassed…. every year there are dozens that get caught, and every year there are dozens that take up the challenge... He is not the first RCR wannabe and I'm sure he is not going to be the last.. anyways what did this guy get a few meals, couple beers at the legion so be it...no real harm done.... Maybe instead of sending our tax dollars to other countries maybe we could invest it in the homeless, give these guys a sense of pride so they don't have to be wannabes. As for punishment perhaps he could spend some time volunteering in a vets hospital, tending or caring for some real vets... even if it was just to go in and keep them company , talk to them...I think all Canadians should do this right after the Nov 11 parades...they really enjoy the company, and you can pay your respects to a real vet, most of these hospitals have each vets bio on the outside of their door...it explains who he is , what they did, what conflict they were in, and what medals they earned....most of them are by themselves now, forced into a home, wife's are passed on... they are just waiting their turn....anyways.....find your local VA hospital, go on down ask if you can pay some respect to our nations vets ...bring a smile to someone face this year for remembrance day.
  18. Freedom of expression has it's limitations , leftist can pay to enter the event, but when they start to disturb or protest they are normally escorted out by security....and it does not have anything to do with your rights or freedoms , but rather just security doing what it gets paid to....ensuring the event goes on as planed , and everyone gets their moneys worth... mean while those that paid to listen gets a bonus , watching leftist make a fool of themselves, and then get escorted or dragged out...on to the street...either way I'm good.... Were not the ones enraged....it is the left, who are the ones foaming at the mouths over the very presence of a speaker from the right.... I mean why would you get dress up in ski masks , make up signs and travel out in the elements to stand out side screaming your heads off thinking your making a difference , lets not forget confronting the elderly because they are cowards....that sounds like enraged....while the right is inside, giggling how pissed you are....it's not the speaker thats the real entertainment it's the left wing nuts out side... So really all your doing is contributing to these events, you want in to protest you pay, don't pay your out in the street...
  19. So here is a real question to Canadians.... How much do we really care about climate change ? And while polls are not the end all to be all how much credit do we give this poll.... 50 % don't want to use tax dollars or added costs....only 8 % of Canadian are willing to spend a whopping $100.00 or more. WOW... I guess thats saying something, even the left does not really believe in climate change enough to pay for it..., let me rephrase that they don't care about climate change thats better... I say that because most of us say we believe in climate change, kind of like the catch phrase we support our troops during the Afghan conflict....you had to say that or be attacked, or not taken serious on any topic......same here, we all believe in climate change, the science is out there.....and yet still not even a majority is convinced enough to put money towards it........ Maybe Justin had polled these numbers before and came up with the half ass carbon tax....because really Canadians don't really give a crap about climate change.... according to this poll. https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/matt-gurney-the-numbers-dont-back-up-any-claim-that-climate-change-sank-scheer/ar-AAJDtDb
  20. So I guess freedom of speech is out the window....here's a new concept , don't go, if YOU don't like them....I go to the movies all the time, do I go to the movies I don't like , then stand up like a retard and yell and talk through out the entire movie because I did not like it.... No thats a leftist tactic...people pay good money to here people with different opinions what gives you the right to screw with that freedom.....
  21. In all the pools I have been to they do have 3 separate spaces , men, women , and family the only difference is the family rooms have stalls so kids and parents can change in the same stall but not the same space, so the pervs are not getting what they want, if your a trans or what ever your called today, then use the family stalls nobody really cares about who you are or what you think you are....but don't force you issues on everyone else because you think you have a right to.... ..........the other spaces men's room, has men / boys openly changing in open spaces, I would not want to be that guy who walked into the women's room stripped down and got into the shower, because he thought he was a women...I'm pretty sure you'd be in for a beating....or arrest if the cops where called....either way your days of openly changing in the women's change room are going to be extremely limited... There are already enough problems with keeping our kids/ family safe, why do we need to open another can of worms by accommodating someone who is not sure what they are.... this is not starship troopers where all sexes have one shower /change room, north American culture is not ready for that yet... nor are we ready to be forced into it , because someone has mental issues or is confused as to what gender they are.... Muslims go to great lengths to cover they women , because their men can not control their sexual lust...want to get some unwanted attention in a Muslim country, then wear something like shorts or yoga pants in public....
  22. Once again eyeballs thats not what I said, john tory jumped on the liberal train , or should I say fell to his knees in hope of getting some of that cash Justin was throwing around....not because he is a liberal but he wanted his share of the hand outs....because the cons were not handing anything out...
  23. It is the Left that is destroying the left, along with everything else. John tory is only trying to get on the liberal gravy train, cause he ain't getting any lovin from the provincial government....
  24. Not sure why we all have to swear allegiance, soldiers do it all the time and it has not got them anything... except court dates...
  25. The left does not want to talk or debate anything, instead they want to preach and tell the right how evil or intolerant the we are, and how we must change our evil ways...... Lots of examples right here on this forum, and when you confront them they quickly change the channel or direction of the talking points to be more suited to their side of the yelling match " because they don't want to debate anything" … And while both sides have their wingnuts, neither side left or right is doing anything but encouraging them... And the right is losing this battle big time it does nothing to protect or defend itself.., just look at the direction of the conservative party is going veering hard to the left to try and pick up a few votes.... And this is not just Canada's citizens that are practicing this leftist propaganda it is their leaders as well. To divide this nation as much as they can.
