But has the rate of environmental abuse risen even faster ? Our mining industry is best described as a "prolific offender", blank cheques issued to the oil and gas sector as far as cleaning up the mess they leave in their wake, unsustainable logging practices, the list goes on.


The deck is stacked against low income earners.
Show us where there are unsustainable harvesting practices in BC. you do know we harvest less than 1/2 of 1% of our forests annually don’t you?

It is difficult for a political to avoid all of those issues. In a constant battle for voters hearts one is almost obliged to take A stand.
Hogan would usually stand up for racial and sex equality, say that abortion was covered by Roe v. Wade, deal with poverty by expressing his desire to make sure everybody had a place to live and a good education, and equally content-free statements, and immediately get back to his points.

Can we borrow him for a decade?

How can you call Levant a racist ? I have seen nothing to support that allegation. Are you sure you are not a liberal , throwing terms like racist around indiscriminately .
one example

2nd example

and when it comes to Muslims, it's damn near never ending.

I have been following levant for over 20 years. I had even subscribed to his damn "newspaper" years before rebel. That's where I was introduced to his mass emails begging for money because the dumb ass had opened his yap without thinking and was getting sued for it. One of the reasons he lost that original "newspaper".
So asking for money makes one racist .

Come now , the Walrus is your source .
Levant has a very clear history of hating Muslims, period. Many Jews would prefer he didn't promote the fact that he's Jewish because it shines a VERY poor light on them. Especially his unfiltered big mouth that has got him in trouble legally on many occasions and on his public stance on Muslims and that they are all terrorists.

what the hell, why not.

Interesting that. Somewhere in the back of my mind I know Levant is Jewish,but I always view him as a right wing Christian fundamentalist. I also rarely pay any attention to him unless his name came up in something else. religious crackpot is what usually comes to mind to describe him.

I just think of him as a mouth on a soapbox , but that is his right . If he can make a living why not .

Really? I can't think of a single Muslim in Canada that would hate me. None of the Muslims I know hate me. So who are these Muslims that hate me?

In other words neither of you really know the man.
