    What’s Joe Biden saying? He’s still the American President for another month or two, right? Or is he silent on this?

    Election 2024

    Ok, so now what? Does Keystone XL come back online & the Mexicans pay for it or something? Canada gets tariffed for the rivers that flow from north to south? Mandatory tanning booths?

    Election 2024

    So….if Harris wins tonight…then the US does get to bitch about what she does when she takes over the Dictatorship of the Fascist States of America??? Or the US does not get to bitch in either case? What’s the etiquette here? Still pretty much a tie at this point…so where’s the first riot...

    Rapporteur David Johnson, Eminent Canadian

    Speaking to reporters in Ottawa on Monday, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh responded to a social media post by Liberal MP Chandra Arya suggesting Sikh separatists “have effectively infiltrated into [Canadian] law enforcement agencies. “What I expect leaders to do is to bring down tensions, not escalate...

    UNRWA. It's like this...

    Fact check your claim that: To take the guesswork out of your claim, I’m assuming the ‘who’ is Israel (?) & the told not to is “Americans or British” (?) & the reactors are probably “in Iran”? Is that what you’re claiming?

    Roe v. Wade overturned?

    No. I am not arguing that “no law ever be passed unless it’s guaranteed that it will never be amended or restricted, etc…” I’m arguing that 80% of Canadians are in favour of abortion & access to it… …& that this is only being brought up again now because it’s politically expedient for the...

    The Truth about Residential Schools.

    Big picture-wise, Murray isn’t just asking for more money and state benefits. Her arguments point to the withdrawal of the Canadian state from Indigenous bubbles of sovereignty, which currently exist only in the minds of decolonial scholar-activists — or permanent compensation for occupying...

    UNRWA. It's like this...

    Got a link? On Monday, Israel’s parliament overwhelmingly passed two laws dealing with UNRWA, the acronym for the euphemistically titled United Nations Relief and Works Agency, which self-promotes as a humanitarian organization devoted to the well-being of Palestinian refugees. Decades ago...

    Roe v. Wade overturned?

    It isn’t a right, & it isn’t illegal, and it isn’t perfect, and it isn’t nationally universal as a provincial jurisdiction, but it’s available for those that need it. Should knee & hip replacements be available to all that need them? Yeah! Should knee & hip replacements be available in every...

    “Wokeness” in Canada and elsewhere…

    http://apple.news/Ay5svhaHVT36kkPW67S670w “If you think Britain, with 50% more people than Canada, took in a lot of immigrants last year, consider that Canada admitted a staggering 1.9 million to the U.K.’s 1.2 million. A new poll by Abacus has found that the Liberals support has plummeted so...

    Roe v. Wade overturned?

    …& on that note, in more than three decades, the parties that have done absolutely nothing on this are the NDP, & Green, & Bloc, & Liberals. Actually, the “Cons” are the only party that has proposed anything even adjacent to this topic. Both voted down by the other parties. Bills C-225 & C-311...

    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    Anyway, so either in If they actually follow the Canada Elections Act on fixed fixed date provisions…or if they’re really corrupt & absolutely don’t even bother pretending to give two shits about the Canadian taxpaying population, then in something like this For the next federal election...

    Roe v. Wade overturned?

    Are the advocates for wanting abortion enshrined into Canadian law going into this with their eyes wide open, knowing that what’s this legislation exists, it can be argued against, curtailed, limited beyond it’s current status, & Eventually, end up in a much more limited form than is currently...

    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    Apparently, in March of this year, Liberal parliamentarians invited NDP MPs to a closed-door meeting at which they conspired to move next year’s election date back a week. Why roll it back a week beyond that outside extreme date that the next federal election must be done on you ask? A week’s...

    Roe v. Wade overturned?

    Or for them it’s also a non-issue except for clubbing their political opponents, when convenient, & if this was legislated in, they couldn’t use it as a divisive wedge issue? If the conservatives really have a top clearance secret agenda etc…wouldn’t they have acted on it when they last had a...

    Roe v. Wade overturned?

    Which of these are provincial and which of these are federal responsibilities? Who would push for federal laws on provincial rules, & will the provinces happily go along with further meddling by the feds into provincial jurisdiction? It’s working out so well so far….so that should go over well...
