The lower the score the better. You honestly think everyone who disagrees with you is a racist, bigot and misogynist, don't you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpankyMcFarland Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Interesting development: https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2017/06/02/conservative-party-takes-disciplinary-action-after-membership-list-shared.html Is 'salting' a list is commonplace, why would anybody associated with a candidate risk using it for this purpose?

You only need to look at the top 5 posters week after week (give or take 1) to see how slanted this forum is or maybe to see who does the voting. I don't think I need to add anymore to this subject.

Bob Macadoo Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 What does voting have to do with intelligence? I believe that's a topic you bring up quite regularly......... 14 hours ago, Argus said: Maybe that is simply a reflection of the fact those posters put intelligent thought into their positions and you don't.

Most of our immigrants are from a very harsh economic climate where you take whatever you can. They'll all jump at this in a second, as will the entire population of Atlantic Canada - which is rapidly becoming an unsustainable welfare society. The ENTIRE population of Atlantic Canada, mind you. A little over the top there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just reminding you that there's a boatload of people out here paying lots of federal tax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a difference between how people vote when they are paying lots of federal tax and how people vote when they're paying little or no federal tax. The majority of people in Atlantic Canada appear to fall into the latter category. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
