Army Guy

YA I do, Sure now it is my fault now... that some loser wants to over dose the 4 th times in one day, 8 times that week ,how much does it cost in tax payers money for EMT's time, cost of arcan or anti drug medication per dose, cost of ambulance, or fire fighters, and police, ….your saying who cares how much it costs..... the addict has a right to live, and that effort should be paid in full by the tax payer...Even when the addict knows his addiction is going to kill him, they don't give a rats ass.....and some how I have to give a rats ass.....and yet i'm the asshole because some drug addict wants to have the right to over dose when ever he wants knowing the tax payer is going to come good for his or her mistakes….Fack that....2 to 3 soldiers commit suicide every week, in our country , soldiers that served this nation with everything they had....and we don't do a damn thing to help them....and you want me to fell sorry for someone drug addict that has done nothing except be a burden to society....and i'm the asshole.... They make the chioce, they inject themselves, they know the dangers....but somehow according to you we should do every thing in our powers to ensure these losers are alive the next day to do it all over again....But when those EMT, fire fighters, cops, medical staff reach their mental health limits it's screw them....in a lot of cases it's you knew the nature of the job, before hand....you made the chioce....live with it...But some drug addict some how it's a different story....

This whole thing is political driven, answering to special interest groups who just look at the demographic make up of each dept....and want to make changes because of the optics it has to the rest of the country....Nobody was even given a thought to "maybe we should just hire the best man or women" but that was not complicated enough now we have to bring in race and religion...What is more important to Canadians, having a soldier that can actually soldier, and meets ALL the standards...or having the right colors and groups on a number chart on the office wall....todays standards are what ever they need to be in order to meet the quota.... Today the standards have been lowered to the point it may be considered a safety issue, all in the name of diversity, the article already mentions lowered IQ standards for people of the north....But there is also a 350 lb man can pass they basic PT test, which can easily be done....they are in the CF... Ever try and lift or drag a 350 lb man who is injured on the battle field, not to mention soldiering takes a very physically fit person, you think a 350 lb person is fit, think they could march 40 kms a day, run 10 km into battle ….carry a 110 lb rucksack for prolong periods in the mountains, in 55 degree heat, in Afghanistan this was a regular routine, even the very fit had issues doing this day after day..... Once again politics set the standards not the military....

The Maritimes is not going red ONCE again, NB has already a blue provincial government , with PEI likely to go green, Justin has very little support here in the Maritimes... PS I believe we should pack the whole lot you BC peace niks and tree huggers, on to the island and push you out to sea....I know we would be better off, might even mange to get a pipe line in there.....but then again opinions are like assholes everyone got one …..

Maybe , but you understood it's intention, it's ok for you to paint an entire people with one brush, but not any body else....and I agree most white supremist are hateful, along with most Antifa as well, but thats not what you said you your implying that conservatives = white supremist

I agree up to a point, when your habit effects my life style or taxes thats where I draw the line want to OD then hey thats on you, but you should not expect the tax payer to provide lifesaving arcan or counter drugs to bring you back from the high you where chasing....There was a documentary done in BC where the same guy gets saved 4 times in on 24 hour period....not to mention what it does to these EMT guys mental health that live with that everyday on the job....

Is that what you call it, and here I thought we could vote for anyone on the ballet, guaranteed by our constitution..... and yet for some reason you and many other conservatives think it's stupid or a dick move to vote for anyone other than Andrew....Are you Afraid that Andrew may not be the man you think he is , and will not garner enough votes to defeat Justin and thats got you scared..........If that is your way of think YOU might want to rethink voting for Andrew, because I know a shit tonne of people who are tired of both liberals and conservatives or should I say liberal lites and almost liberal conservative party... Both are one in the same Andrew may win out on personality, but they both have similar ways of governing Canada. It's time for a change and if you can't jump on board that train, fine stay on the lemming train of the same channel, same shit....Because you've always voted Conservative, or your hoping that this time, everything will be different ...if you ask me that is the definition of stupidity trying the same solution over and over hoping for different results.... I really don't care about uniting the conservative front.....or let me rephrase that, what you think is the conservative front....Andrews conservatives are more liberal than they are conservatives....and if your scared of the results , then you should be out there campaigning for Andrew to ensures he wins.....I'm going to vote for MAX, and I hope many more do as well, and if that means Justin wins another term or Andrew gets a minority, thats politics and the will of the Canadian people...

Gays vote liberal , what is your point here....was it all liberals are gay, because I know a lot and they are straight..... You don't think the liberals don't court votes, once again does that make them gay.... speaking of hiding stuff did the liberals not just hide major changes to the immigration policy in another bill. bringing it more in line with conservative policy....

He is going to end corporate welfare, readjust the way payments are done to the provinces, end the dairy cartel, he is going to put 2 pipelines through regardless if BC or Quebec likes them or not ,decentralize government , make it smaller. Change our immigration policy, take us out of the UN immigration pact, stop giving away billions to foreign countries to fight climate change, lower taxes,....Shit just read it for your self... https://www.peoplespartyofcanada.ca/a_foreign_policy_focused_on_the_security_and_prosperity_of_canadians His platform is more conservative than the conservative one is...He is not doing what is popular but rather what is best for the nation, there is a breath of fresh air....he does not need to poll to death every topic to make a decision, but rather makes it based on facts and figures and what is best for the nation....he is also going to stop pandering to all the special interest groups.... Now if Andrew had more of that in his platform there would not be a problem....

He was part of a much larger effort that took the fight to the NAZI's.....This carbon tax does nothing of the sort, there is NO plan to use any of this money on reducing carbon footprints across industry, or on the individual level.....All the money collected is given to back into general revenues....the excess could be used on anything really...except reducing carbon foot prints... Let me ask you is 4.5 cents going to deter you from driving, use public transport more, is it going to drive you to trade in your veh and buy something more fuel efficient....Here in NB 40 % of all vehs are pick up trucks, big ass V-8's , gas guzzling V-8 … the most stolen vehs happen to be the same thing, big ass trucks, why is that, supply and demand thats why... Take a look at Cigarettes, they have reached almost 20,00 a pack...and still people are buying them, granted sales have dropped, but it took a tax of over 1500% over cost to produce to get these results...4.5% cents is just another day at the pumps... besides according to Justin they are going to give back more than what is collected, so gas goes up 20 % we'll be getting back 25 % it's a win win for tax payers or so says Justin...who has never lied to us before right.... It's an empty tax that does nothing for climate change....or perhaps you can explain it to me how is this going to save the planet before the magic self destruct date....I mean climate Barbie can not explain it....maybe someone here could....

Here is another new liberal program to boost our what I assume our lagging small business sectors.....it comes for of all nations Pakistan, you know the nation that has given us the Taliban and has covertly funded them. but enough on that. Could it be true that Canadians are not business savvy, I mean we did mange to create a nation that is a G-8 nation , we must know a little about creating business ….so why do we need this program....why do we need the liberals.....why can't we use this funding to give to Canadians, to start their own business new or old, black, white , brown I don't care

Yes they are touting the same thing in BC...I also read in the SNC scandal , that the government would run a false media campaign to turn public opinion around...Is this is what is happening now, not sure but, I , m not putting it by them. There are plenty of sites out there that say the carbon taxes do not work....Here is some of them. I gave a large variety in case you did not like some of the sources, and while some out right deny it works , there are a few that say it has had some benefits, but would not translate across the entire country... The numbers do not add up, if a couple cents 4.5 in NB are going to persuade enough drivers to stop and think about driving or to walk , is very optimistic at best....fuel here is just getting to 1.30 here, and has been as high as 1,65 and even then people did not over whelm public transport, buy smaller cars, BTW the most popular veh stolen in Canada is big ass gas guzzling trucks....there are a 40 /60 spilt of pick-ups to trucks here in NB....with no decline in sight.. http://www.ibc.ca/nb/auto/theft/top-ten-stolen-cars?p=National I don't see a lower consumption rate any time soon, atleast one that would drastically lower our carbon foot print....while any decline would be a good thing , we are looking for much better results.... While lowering my taxes is a good thing, how is this any good for the environment, the more disposalable income I have the more I'm going to consume, and most if not all products take fossil fuels to produce won't this just negate any gains you've made..... I find it funney that there are NO programs designed to further cut our carbon foot print with this carbon tax...., no rebates on solar , or wind power, better insulation of you home, other alt fuel projects, etc etc...No projects that would steer industry into making say a smaller, more fuel efficient engine to replace V-8 on todays market, or cities to put more electric buses on the road, electric snow plow vehs, etc.... https://thetyee.ca/Opinion/2016/03/08/BC-Carbon-Tax-Failure/ https://thetyee.ca/Analysis/2019/01/11/BC-Carbon-Tax-Success-Explained/ https://www.fraserinstitute.org/tags/bc-carbon-tax https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/carbon-taxes-do-they-work-it-s-a-good-question-1.3887729 https://www.seattletimes.com/opinion/look-to-b-c-for-evidence-carbon-tax-doesnt-work/ https://ipolitics.ca/2016/03/25/are-we-sure-b-c-s-carbon-tax-is-working/

I would agree that this stuff does not surprise Canadians very much.....that in itself is very telling, and politicians ask us why we don't trust the government ….and yet these scandals are common. small potatoes or not, Justin liberals are free falling at a rapid rate....I can't remember when a scandal claimed so many people in such a short time, and lets not forget their positions …. I give it a med size scandal at the very least.

So please explain to all of us HOW this Canadian Carbon tax is going to fight climate change...With all the research being done today, proving this whole tax you more is going to lower our emissions is BS to the high extreme, even BC has come out and said consumption has increased, WTF .........how is this going to lower our carbon emission rates, please explain it to me....

So it's ok to spend millions buying hookers and blow to bribe who ever you want, not counting million dollar boats....to get contracts....where do you draw the line, would it be alright to bribe government employees, elected officials , or anyone else for that matter in this country....or does it have to be in a foreign country for you to feel all good about this act ?

Your right so what, no laws were broken.........and yet Justins main man quits, the senior civil servant retires early, the treasure dept MP retires early, 2 MPs were fired, and Justin is in up to his neck in shit....how does that happen if no laws were broken, there has to be something to this whole issue.....or is this all normal behavior for federal government MP's or maybe ….and I say maybe there is a major rule or policy that states something has gone wrong.....something that would demand the forced retirement of all these people....

It's a good gesture, one that millions of Canadians have said they would do, how ever they soon fold when it comes down to doing anything about it....and no we are not bitter, just facing reality....

These are the same guys that were busted for fixing the price on bread....and ordered to pay back some of the funds they swindled, and then some how the Liberal government gives them 12 million....

If you are referring to the SNC charges, that they be given a DPA, "NO" I don't think any government should drop the charges...SNC has a long history of this behavior, under many different CEO's , what I think should happen is this whole DPA thing be look at again, to see if this is not just political tool to favor the rich and famous.... I think it is time to stop corporate welfare, stop paying for others mistakes with tax dollars....SNC is not the only one, remember the bread pricing scandal, their back in the news once again....There should be laws in which these big CEO's who make these mistakes should be stripped of all their wealth once the company goes under because of these stupid mistakes or decisions....

Sorry to disappoint you, but the cons have disappointed me to often, as much as the liberals have....No i'm going to try something new this year, and vote for mad max....

it does not sound like it, we blew by he said , she said a long time ago, well once Butts resigned, then Senior civil servant retired, lets not mention 2 minsters being kicked out of the liberal caucus.....not to mention Justins fall in the polls....wait until useless Carbon taxes get discussed …. and more of your flock will seek to vote else where....

Have you been following the case at all, even Justin has slipped up and admitted to pressuring her, have you listened to recorded phone conversation, have you asked your self why Butts , the senior civil servant , plus another minster, quit without any warning....Man it does not take a lot to string you liberals along does it...it takes blind faith in ones political leader to another level....

It's not getting into the weeds it is how the DPA works, nobody is arguing what powers the AG has, but rather the limitations of those powers. if it is proven that a case does not qualify for a DPA then one can not be issued, hence why their are restrictions or guide lines on how they are issued.....those guide lines are for everyone in parliament, including the AG , PMO office and everyone else...

OK I agree 100 % , but thats not what this issue is all about , it was that she was being pressured directly by PMO, and his staff, which is not allowed.....for many reasons, can't be having the PM changing existing law when it suits him.....without going through the proper procedures which were set up as a safety net...

Why would the AG want to intervene if the requirements are not met, A better question would be why have requirements if the AG could over rule,......you do realize that this has already been seen by a Judge who has made a recommendation on this matter as in SNC case, and the AG agreed and refused to change her mind....the key for her decision was SNC case did not meet all the requirement for a DPA....

Providing that the case meets all the requirements for a DPA.....
