What on earth are you talking about? The media, especially US media soak up human drama and milk it for all it is worth, except when it's the human drama seen in the lives of the hundreds of millions the US has murdered/hurt. Quote

hot enough Posted November 5, 2017 Report Posted November 5, 2017 More American culture. Ain't it grand!!?? Barbie bring bombs; Cambodians, described by the Pentagon as "a docile and passive people who cannot be relied upon to act in a positive way for the benefit of American policies" so their country was carpet bombed, saturation bombed, the Americans set the stage for Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge, who, after slaughtering untold hundreds of thousands of people became the friends/associates of the US, they received US food and military aid.

Argus Posted November 29, 2017 Author Report Posted November 29, 2017 The holidays are here! You know the ones... the CHRISTMAS holidays. This is from the USAF band which surprised visitors to the air and space museum with Christmas carols - not Christas music, not holiday music, but Christmas Carols. I can't imagine this ever happening in Canada because of political correctness. The NDP would lose its mind contemplating the lack of inclusiveness and warnings to non-Christians to flee lest they be subjected to Christian type music! 1 Quote "A liberal is someone who claims to be open to all points of view — and then is surprised and offended to find there are other points of view.” William F Buckley

Once again you fail to do your homework before spouting off. Never heard of the Naden Band for instance? They are a Canadian Military band who do an annual CHRISTMAS Concert. What will really get you into a sweat was that last year they did one concert in support of groups who support immigrants and refugees. This year they will support the Salvation Army toy drive. That will only be one of many CHRISTMAS Concerts that will occur leading up to the holidays. http://www.nadenband.ca/christmas http://esquimaltmfrc.com/event/naden-band-christmas-concert/2017-12-13/ Quote

Apparently you don't understand much of anything - about anything.

The church near me has a plan for a Christmas concert with a choir and a Xmas tree and traditional carols will be sung. There will be Muslims and other religious followers there. Sorry to burst your racist bubble. Quote

Argus Posted December 17, 2017 Author Report Posted December 17, 2017 I think Canadian television could learn a lot from the Brazilians in how to put on a quality product which can compete with foreign produced shows.
