It stopped when the few dictated terms to the many.....lets wait until the cons take the reigns and see if the pipe line remains stagnate, or construction starts....and I really hope the energy east pipeline gets a new life as well....

Justin really does not need a smear campaign, his actions speak for themselves really. Canadians are starting to wake up, to Justins leadership, which is based on one huge lie, …. You can't blame that on Scheer… Thats all on Justin....of course that is the liberal way , to blame their mistakes on others, How many times have we heard him stand up and compare his governments actions to that of Harpers....

Do you guys know something that the rest of the country does not, How far out are we from finding a reliable, climate friendly, cheap energy source....is it 5 years out 10, 15, 20....who is funding this drive for this new tech, certainly not our carbon tax...and IF our government is funding it how much do we invest....you make it sound like it's right around the corner....It's not even close, unless your planning to let us in on the secret...Why should we make our economy suffer, when there is no solution even close ? why cry about the world ending when we are not really making an effort to curb our carbon foot print.....Sure we talk the talk, but we don't do squat, and if you think Justin climate plan is going to bring about a solution, then you might as well be a denier...there is NO benefit to any of his climate plan , shit even David Suzuki says Justin is full of shit.... I guess that the floods in Montreal are not due to poor planning by city planners, poor decisions by home owners to build flood proof yards or homes or move to another location..., poor decisions by governments to use tax dollars year after year to the same home owners that will spend our tax dollars rebuilding only to have to do it all again next spring....This flood in NB this year has finally got government talking about relocation, and building infra structure to prevent flooding....it's only taken 50 years to get that far.... That sir is not climate change that is just bad decisions made year after year hoping for a different result.... Can you provide a source that states Canada is one of the highest polluters on the planet....or even one that places us in the top 10 or 20

Do you have a quote for that, or is it acceptable to pull things from ones ass....who said they admired the Chinese again, does that make him a communist....

Yes that is exactly what I'm saying, Alberta resources are what fuels THE ENTIRE NATIONS economy, so do I think that trumps BC desire to protect their environment ,YES, do I think BC should be holding this nation hostage because of a few tree huggers, NO, the fact that most BC's er that are effected by the pipeline have already made a deal to bring in funding and additional resources and jobs into their districts....Including the people of wet sum or what ever it's called, those few that are holding out are doing so to get a better deal, not because they want to save the planet....where are they when bils of liters of sewage are pumped into the ocean everyday... Lets forget Justin and is merry gang of clowns for now, they are done......Do you think the cons are not going to use every measure in their power to drive this pipeline through, the law already states that this can be done, without the few holdouts permission....and yes the cons will gain even more support in Alberta, and yes pick up more seats in BC, not every bc is a tree hugger, some even like going to the pump and paying below 1.70 a liter.... Like I said before the NATION is tired of BC and Quebec holding the nation hostage, will the cons win any more seats , the answer is how many more seats will the gain across the nation for taking some action in regards to pipelines.....stop the funding of the 40 Bil LNG plant will get their attention, cut any other funding and they will be phoning the PM on how we can proceed with the twinning of the pipeline.... a large minority of BC'ers will be getting arrested, end of story, The PM is already declared it in the nations interest, the Con will have the balls to push on with this wait and see. I know that is the battle cry of the greens and the hesitant NDP, but the rest of the nation does not give a rats ass, the world is still driven by oil, with no viable replacement anytime soon, that is cheap enough to make a difference. Why not profit from those resources while they are still here.... And when BC does not cooperate, and Alberta slowly reduces the flow, and your fuel goes over 3,00 a liter you'll be begging for a pipeline...and you will be riding a bike to and from work....and heating your home with nice thoughts, and good wishes...while the rest of the world is swimming in fossil fuels....because we can't drive 55.....

Maybe the PM should grow a pair, either force it through via the law, or take back all that federal funding for that new LNG plant that BC wants....cut back on all federal funded projects.....until they come to their senses....Can't have the cake and eat it to, we already have one province that does that....

you really think that the BC government can run these depts. any better....How so ?

I'm not disappointed that your a liberal, most French Canadians are , I agree with your statements that Quebec is just as Canadian as the rest of us and with out them this country would not be what it is today, Don't get me wrong, I don't like the modern Quebec and what it has become..... the wish to separate, the need to preserve the French culture that has been crossing the line of reason for sometime now, this need to become all French is what separates us, we are no longer Canadian French/English that treat each other on a equal footing... As for Mr Chretien , I'm sorry I find it hard to put him on any list....except the list of men that finally destroyed the military in just 2 terms....But hey your entitled to your opinion...

You had me until you mentioned being a liberal, and of course Jean Chretien, in the same sentence as strong candidate.

Glad to see your still being objective Michael …I guess for the most part the majority of Canadians are not ready for some of Bernie's ideas, never will be...I'd say that a good portion of them really don't give squat to who really wins or governs....a large majority won't even get out to vote. And those that do come out and vote, ,most of them are voting for parties they have always voted for....not because of whats on the platform, or campaign promises , or god forbid what is good for the country........ But because they have always been red, blue, green, orange....Now that is a crack pot idea...I mean lets be honest, how many crack heads voted Justin , he was clearly not leadership material, he has failed so many ways it's no longer a joke, but a sad tail of desperate Canadians will to grasp at anything, currently good looking and good hair, is a popular leadership trait....who knew. Andrews campaign results are leading in the polls because of the same mentality of Canadians voters....remember the anybody but harper ….only now it's anybody but Justin....another sound voting strategy....

What everyone needs to do is show up and vote, it's really that easy....and if Justin does get reelected it is because Canadians want it that way period , it would suck, but you can't teach stupid........both the liberals and cons have to much blind faith in their leaders, shit they would follow crusty the clown, if they ran under the red and blue banners...both sides just don't want the other to get in....and act to prevent that, regardless of the damage they are doing, and we wonder why sweet f***k all gets done.....and screw what is best for the country.....as long as the other guys don't get in....anyone but Harper campaign ring a bell....and now the cons with Justin.....want something refreshing take a page from PEI election where blue winners offered to make some of the other parties members cabinet members.....say WTF....ya they want to work together and do what is best for the province... If your one of those people that can not see past your nose and votes for a certain party regardless of policies or platforms ... screw you....voting for one party for your entire life regardless of what that party stands for or what their policies are.....is retarded....closing your eyes to your parties mistakes or missteps is also retarded....Vote for the best platform , the one that will serve you and your families needs, with a huge helping of what is best for the nation....

It is your vote, one that your going to have to deal or live with for a minimum of 4 years...I wish Andrew had a list like that as well, but he does not, ,Max has got all the checks in the boxes that I'm looking for in a candidate. I'm looking for a candidate that is looking to push that far and beyond , because we need a change , a drastic change and for a lot of Canadians that change is max....and other voters are going to boost up the other parties, like green and NDP.....How is any of max's changes going to throw us back 12 steps ?....

While Max is focused on all the fat that surrounds our entire government, things like defunding CBC, breaking up the dairy cartel, making government smaller, ending Corporate welfare, stop sending bils to foreign countries to fight climate change, ...start adding up all the bils just from these programs and you Canadians will soon have 15 to 20 bil back in their pockets....whats Andrew going to do, except more of the liberals sunny ways....

Most of Canada's diverse groups have fled war, conflict, dictators, etc, they or for the most part have no taste in joining a military which they see as un trust worthy do to past encounters in their home countries...And I agree we should have more diversity, but not at the expense of standards....Can't make the standard then do something else in life.... Like Argus has said in times of conflict the military is not a democracy, when your sgt yells at you and orders you to charge that machine gun nest, and you know there is a very good chance your going to die....they are not going to break out the tea set and brew up a pot of tea....and discuss it....you charge and take your chances and if you don't then you've let your brothers in amrs down, and when they return back to the rear, you'll be gone, charged , and placed in jail....refusal of a direct order, in war time, under combat conditions use to carry the death penalty which was only rescinded within the early 90's. back in the day the sgt would just put a bullet in your head, then yell next......The only one making decisions is the senior rank on the ground.... The military has developed drills for most situations...there is not much time to sit down and discuss a course of action, everyone already knows what to do, or it has been discussed before hand in your briefing.....

What a load of crap....The CF had changed their recruiting practices in the 90's to accommodate women, and specific groups like natives, Inuit etc etc.......Before that the hiring process was based on several areas, physical fit, no medical issues, such as a glass eye, having all your limbs, being able to walk and talk …..being mentally fit, they bring each recruit to their mental breaking point, thoise that failed , were sent home.....except today, today numbers are all that count.....Standards have been lowered both mentally and physically...Not sure what the hell being a white man had to do with it, unless your saying men of color or for that matter any race or creed, religion or what ever..... can not meet these standards or perform at levels that were chosen for white men, because thats bull shit....The standards were written based on hundreds of years of experience on what it takes to be physical fit and mentally toughen to be able to do those jobs in the military....it was politicians who thought this affirmative action/ human rights could translate into the military....or for that matter being a policemen, fire fighter, EMT tech....And they are wrong....They are not doing these 350 lb soldiers any favors by twisting the physical requirements, to make up numbers....what they are doing is putting more lives in danger, it takes more soldiers to carry a 350 lb er off the battle field, or command makes the decision to leave him behind....there's a moral booster for sure...trying tell johnnies mom he died because he was to fat and we could not lift him to safety.... \ Affirmative action ,basic human rights suck in this case...lets put this into perspective, todays standards are constantly changing, but to become a basic recruit a member only has to do 3 push ups, once in boot camp, they must pass the force test, which anyone with any very little physical means could pass...and the mental aspects has been toned done so much, that we have members getting PTSD in training....Not saying there are NO good soldiers entering the CF because that is not true....But I can tell you there are a shit ton of poor soldiers getting through training these days... Todays women who have worked hard to meet these standards are tough as nails....I've meet a lot of women in the infantry/ other combat arms and most of them can soldier with the best of them....I would go to war with any of them any day.....even they have realized lower standards do not do anyone any favors....picking recruits should be a military function...not a political one...and you can disagree, but then again your not going to be out there doing the job are you....this is so you can feel good about not having to meet white men standards....and point to your color graph that see how diverse we are.....

You don't sound very confident in your candidate, even though the latest polls put him ahead by more than 5 % points...and would you bet your life that Andrew is going to keep ALL his campaign promises, since we are both adults here, which PM has kept ALL their promises...I mean we are talking about Canadian politics here, where they can lie , cheat , do what ever it takes to stay in power with no accounting for any of it even the citizens don't really give a shit they can't remember all the scandals come voting time any way..... Yes now your starting to sound like a liberal, if we talk about conservatives , we must bring in the fact we are all racists, white nationalist, with huge swastikas carved into our chests in some satanic ceremony, in which we roast over an open pit immigrants and Frenchmen and I'm hoping one day liberals ..... Here's the thing I've been voting Conservative pretty much my entire life, until this election, I don't like their direction, nor do I like where Andrews is taking them, they are more liberal than conservative.....I want a change, they have disappointed me for the last time...That is my right given to me under the constitution...As for drawing votes away from the Cons, yes that is going to happen , as well from the liberals, and other parties that are tired as I am of all the same shit , just wrapped in a different box.... Would it bother me if the cons lost a seat, to the lib tards , no it would not, and if Justin gets another term as PM , thats because the liberals are not done with destroying the nation, and they have retained the popular vote, thats how democracy works , I don't have to like it , but thats how this whole voting thing works.........not because I voted for Max....but because Andrew did not do his job very well...If your that concerned about the cons winning get out there and start canvassing for Andrew....

The Conservative party has plenty of good members, thats not the problem, the problem is the direction they are going, and how they get there....there are lots of things I see in their platform that I like, but what is missing, everything that is not popular with certain groups of lobbies, things that do not make sense, or would benefit the country as a whole, and not a select few.......like dairy, corporate welfare, handing out billions to foreign countries, adjusting the provinces welfare checks... the list go's on....And the man that controls that direction is Andrew.....And it is to liberal for me... Their are plenty of good people in the conservative party.... Selfish how, selfish as in all those that are going to vote liberal, green ,NDP ,MAX are selfish, The cons are losing thousands of votes to other parties, because of what little we know of Andrews direction, what little we know of Andrew period...Has he explained in detail any of his platform....yes he is going to reverse dozens of liberals proposals and policies...but then again so is everyone else.... Telling me that splitting the vote is selfish , equates to this....that you have no confidence in your party, your afraid that he is not popular enough to win a majority, your afraid that Justin may stay another term...if your that unsure then it's not to late to vote for max....don't be so selfish.... I'm voting for max , because I see him as the best candidate, I thought that was what democracy was all about....maybe I'm wrong...but i'm not alone, about 3 months ago they were polling about 2.5 or 3 % national, and climbing every day....with Justins numbers falling faster that grannies boobs. Now is MAX going to be the next PM , that would take a miracle, and it has happened before....but unlikely , . but does not change my mind that he is the best man for the job...

I'm not apologizing for anything, I don't care what they wear or what you wear for that matter, ...you want to get dress up in a pink tutu thats your call, does not effect my life one bit........I don't have a problem with Muslims.....I do have issues with Islamic extremists, nor I'm a big fan of their religion either . That does not mean I want to go around or approve of paintballing Canadian Muslims for shits and giggles...now liberals are free game.....when their only crime was wearing some cloths you don't approve of... Want to grow a pair , sign up with the Kurds they are looking for a few good men, or women, and Justin says your welcome back home after you attend some arts and crafts plus a poetry class. yes some of them are Muslim , but they hate extremists, well mostly ISIS , not to fussy about turks , Iraqis, either, there is some history there..... I' d recommend the recruiting office, but they don't take children, or rednecks... Just a question How is it that cursing out or assaulting some Canadian Muslims is going to solve this issue you have with bombing...extremism, terrorists, scumbags in other areas of the world....Perhaps it is time for you to grow a pair, there is nothing you can do to change the fact they "Muslims" are here in our nation to start a new life....you might not like it but they are Canadians...Now if they break the law they should go...but wearing some clothing you don't like is not breaking any laws....you need to let it go....

Nobody is asking you to, I was defending my right to vote for any candidate I like, ....I'm the one voting for Max...it is my vote to waste or use as I may. at the end of the of the night we will find out who's candidate wins and who's loses...and at the end of the their term we will find out if we made the right chioce or we got another Justin.....I don't see things changing much with Andrew....

Why is it we need to go extreme right or left to solve issues that are basically common sense....wear what ever you want to wear, if that is a burka or veil who cares, I have 2 daughters who have tested my morals and values with what they called fashion for years....to the point I thought god was punishing me for something I did in another life....The common sense approach would be yes you need to show your face to police officers with just cause , for a picture i.e. driver license , government ID card, to get a fire arms certificate (PAL), to purchase a fire arm, etc. etc...other than that wear what ever, shit today the fashion world has tested the boundaries of every father, look at those yoga leggings, the see through kind, you know what I'm talking about... if we can tolerate them, whats a few burkas....here and there.... There is bigger fish to fry in the whole Islamic thing....than burkas and veils...

Thats a load of bull, todays Andrew sheers conservatives are leaning more to the left that the right....want left vote liberal.....Andrew is only going to compromise if he has spent 3 months polling out the topic and studying it to see how many votes he will get...., and if it is not popular then it ain't going to happen. The rest of Canada wants a PM that can make decisive decisions in a timely manner, decisions that may not be popular with the country, but better for our nation....And if you look at a bulk of his platform you'll see that, tackling the Dairy cartel is not popular, ending corporate welfare not popular, ending the climate welfare checks to foreign nations , not popular....the list go's on.... What alliance, you afraid that max won't get along with the fabulous four....come on, Max is a conservative, not some liberal lite ,like sheer....you don't have any proof that will happen …. True Andrew has surrounded himself with some good people, Max's people are untested, does not mean that they are no good, not worthy of a chance....we have been on this same merry go round for since confederation, with the choices being liberal or conservatives.....and for a long time there has not been much to choose from... I mean we picked a drama teacher/ ski bum, with good hair and good smile.....to be our last PM that should show you how desperate we are for leadership in this country . you can't trust max, I can't trust Andrew for the same reasons, I see max as a leader who did not like the way the conservative party was traveling so he got off, and decided to go his own way...and accomplish the near impossible, create his own party, with it's own core values, and morals, he sets himself apart from the cons in many ways....How long is this party going to stay don't know...what I do know is he has the best platform out there right now, one that suits my needs, my wishes , one that is putting the nation ahead of himself....can't say that with Andrew.... Building a party in 4 years is a huge under taking....proves he can get things done....He has put his time in as a politician so ya he is not a Justin, who had what experience as a politician again ? did he read a book, maybe watched a u tube video...come on thats a strawman excuse.... reward someone for skipping the line, WTF is that, what this country needs is someone who has the balls , and some leadership skills to lead, be able to make the tough choices when needed, and to know when someone is trying to pull the wool over his eyes....and personal I don't care if he comes straight our of a MacDonald's restaurant....we've tried it your way for hundreds of years...and looking back not to many have proved to be great leaders, we have had some that were good, but not that many that were great, we've had some that we are taking down statues off because they made some questionable decisions.... I'm willing to put my vote on a guy that is the under dog.... why because we have tried everything else, and now were down to drama teachers and ski bums, what can we lose , things can only get better....

I know it is still early in this situation but I'm wonder what is the response form the Islamic world on this attack ?, what is the response of the Christian world ? is their gun reform happening in Sri lanka ? Has Justin open the doors to Canada to these Christians that are being prosecuted....This is the time for everyone to stand up and take action, not just Christians but muslims as well,

Your a funny guy Eyeballs...Me I sleep just fine eyeball , thanks for asking...

Antifa and leftist by definition are also hateful people, who tend to paint anyone not of their group with one paint brush, they tend to trigger easily when you question immigration or other topics that they hold near and dear.... and they goto their favorite your a Racist , or white nationalist/ supremacist...U tube is full of them , getting triggered , their heads turning red to the point of exploding, spittle flying every where , lets not forget the masks . yes they believe in their cause, but don't want anyone to know who they really are....Thats what I call a true believer....hiding behind a mask.... Thanks For that little bit of compassion Jacee, did not think you had any..... now that I think about it, not all liberals, green ,NDP are gay, most, but not all....but they sure like to pander to those types of groups...
