Read: We have a totally fucked system of "government". 

And everyone should take the time to learn as to who is behind this "totally fucked system of government" that we are all stuck and have to live with. I don't want to say as to who I believe is behind it all because I am pretty sure that I would get called an anti semite. So I will just keep it to myself. :D

Trump seems to be heading ever further down the road toward obstruction now it comes out he crafted a statement for his son to provide when asked about the Russia meeting. Yeah, it was all about "adoption issues" ho ho ho.

Still waiting for President Trump's impeachment any day now...surely it will happen tomorrow...just to keep his critics in Canada happy.

In all likelihood there will be a further step down the road tomorrow. It's hilarious to watch from this vantage point.

That's still not obstruction.

It certainly is if it can be proven that that conversation actually took place as described because it provides the magic ingredient "intent".

Dude, you really should just change the channel.

Why? I love derailing you right wingers.

We've had 260 odd days of outrage, at some point you have to question whether O'donnell, Maddow, Lemon and Cooper might be full of chit?  A sane person would!

You think those people make up Donald's tweets for him do you?

That's a fair observation,

I went to lunch in a restaurant with my Scottish Chinese family today so I think it's a bit of stupid observation that doesn't deserve the time of day you're giving it.

Totally agree. Does that guy get out much?  I mean, come on. This is ridiculous.   

Are we living in the 60's or does this guy only see what he wants to see?

How is an observation 'stupid' ?  You're just reporting what you see.  Assuming that the observation is honest, it at least provides a point of discussion.

Are we really sure that this observation is incorrect ?  The perspective is important.  You will see different mixes at a tony Toronto restaurant at night, a downtown food court at noon, and a Sudbury diner on a Saturday.  It's a point-in-time check-in to report what you see, nothing more.  And it's valid, if honest.

It depends on where you are.  When I was living in the Lower Mainland I rarely ate out with only white folks.  Now I'm in central AB, the opposite is true.

As was suggested, perhaps you needs to get out more.

How so ?  It's not my observation so why do *I* need to get out more ?  

Sometimes people get so upset over objectivity, it seems to me.  You can either call Argus mistaken, or a liar I suppose, or deep dive into his observation to find out if it means anything.

There you go.  Is your observation now invalid because you live in a predominantly white part of Canada ?  No.  Does it mean anything to the discussion at large ?  Maybe.  Let's see.

When I took a cross-Canada trip 12 years ago, I noticed there was something ... off ... about billboard ads in Saskatchewan.  I finally put my finger on it: all white people, all the time.  It struck me as weird coming from a place where every grouping of people in ads features different colours.  An observation, nothing more.

You don't have to dive very deep to know it means nothing.

I mean of we were talking about aliens from another little pale dot malevolently crowding us out you'd have a point. But we don't and it's 2017 and we have far more important relevant things that need discussing.

And don't tell me we should start discussing them if that's the case because we have and it's not getting anyone anywhere far or fast. Going backwards is more like it.

1.  Ok, well why not go there to find out ?

2.  I for one think multiculturalism is important to discuss.

3.  If Argus says "I don't see people mixing" then how is it going backwards, unless you are reading more into it than what is said ?

It's usually Canadians assimilating to their/other cultures.  Chinese, Vietnamese and muslims don't and wont assimilate to Canadian culture.  Indians will to a small extent (TV, Language, Music, Sports etc).

1. How many times do you need to go there to know? 

2. Except what they're discussing is ending or putting a stop to multiculturalism.

3. Case in point..go see the thread on rampant antisemitism. It just doesn't matter how much you try to discuss it's how much you agree that matters and if you don't...you'll only get shit on.

I've experienced this #3 point quite often from the usual suspects.
