    Justin Trudeau announces he will step down as Liberal Leader

    Kudos. Drama and everything. Ego & Selfie Soundbites wouldn’t allow otherwise. You’re talking about the “Got’cha” type media questions? Yeah, I hear you. It’s very difficult to find a public interaction direct one on one with a member of the disgruntled public at this point, but he’ll have four...

    “Wokeness” in Canada and elsewhere…

    After a decade or so, progressives are on the defensive in Canada and elsewhere because regular people, as in those who are not activist weirdos, are tired of the agenda to control every aspect of our lives. Point this out to a progressive, and they will deny that anyone’s life is being...

    How Low Can They Go?

    I’m assuming you’re referring to a proposed border line or lines? Petros is going to the vague date without specifics or explanation…I’ve some questions regarding a vague 365 day answer…but let’s see where it goes.

    How Low Can They Go?

    …& why 1967? Why not 1966 (?) or 1948 (?) or 1922 (?) 2004 (?) or 2006 for example? Then, when in 1967? June 12th or June 2nd of 1967….or some other date..& why?

    How Low Can They Go?

    Apparently. Great Britain wanted to preserve good relations with the Arabs to protect its vital political and economic interests in Palestine.

    How Low Can They Go?

    …& what was “Palestine” in the context that Israel declared independence from? Like this? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Tel_Hai Or this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1920_Nebi_Musa_riots Etc…to get the ball rolling? Many other examples but everyone’s Google works the same, more or...

    British Government aims to introduce four-day week

    Eight Days a Week at 42 hours per day… …Would be a 336 hour week…with 26 weeks per year. It’s not so far fetched. It would still line up with a Solar annual cycle just as awkwardly as a 24hr/day 7day/week 52week/year one does…& still as uselessly non-aligned to the lunar cycles as our current...

    How Low Can They Go?

    Or maybe it’s something else, like something along the lines of non-Muslim lands conquered by Muslims are Muslim property in perpetuity? If that’s the case, then that would explain the Israel/Palestine thing where an inch of Israel is too much “God's will is that Islamic territory should only...

    I hate to say it, but I have no idea what that means but I have Google!!

    How Low Can They Go?

    Ahhh…ok. It wasn’t Military personnel being evicted and told to take their houses with them though…so those must’ve been been sold off in the following 40 years or so. Much of North Central is still old military housing. I absolutely hated military housing when I was a young man delivering...

    How Low Can They Go?

    Really? That’s about 40 years ago and it’s vague but I remember watching the news, & the people being forced from their homes. Some sold early, many didn’t wanna leave and tried to fight it, it was nasty stuff. Now the Department of national Defence Owns it, & REAL charges by the car for all...

    How Low Can They Go?

    Or a succession of conquerors. Shit happens. By the same token, maybe this God isn’t on Team Palestine’s side either if He/She gives a damn one way or the other. Before Israel, there was a British mandate, not a Palestinian state. Before the British Mandate, there was the Ottoman Empire, not a...

    British Government aims to introduce four-day week

    I’m getting old and tired, & what was the normal day of 12 hours/day just a decade ago…I wouldn’t look forward to it this point in my life. I’m good with 8hrs/day at at this point. I miss the money from a decade ago, but I’m good with just eight hours a day at this point. Picture 12hrs/day five...

    British Government aims to introduce four-day week

    Until I clicked into your thread, I assumed the British government was gonna make each day 42 hours long. It would be kind of awkward to get used to but the human species is nothing if not adaptable. So mandatory 10hr days four days/week instead of 8hr days five days/week. What about the people...

    How Low Can They Go?

    I have a claim for the 25 foot’ x 125’ chunk of ground that I’m almost 4/5ths done paying for…& exactly zero claim for any of the land holdings my ancestors may have had. I get it. When my direct ancestors were involuntarily shipped to Australia…they didn’t get to sell their holdings and fill...

    It's Kamala

    I like the one where Joe Rogan was talking about somebody completely different, a completely different woman politician…& one of the news services edited it all out to make it sound like he was talking about Kamala…& that gets so little AirPlay that I think it’s going to get completely buried...

    How Low Can They Go?

    War and conquest. Every chunk of ground has changed ownership and nationality (almost all) repeatedly through history. Shit happens. Hell, the Romans held England, on top of the Middle East at the same time. The Mongols, Huns, Saxons, North & South Americans & the stretch between the two of...

    Justin Trudeau announces he will step down as Liberal Leader

    The train station in Regina, that stood for more than a 100 years, now has no trains going to it…. But it does have hundreds of VLT’s & a “hit or miss” buffet on the weekends. Below is the train station in Regina about 110 years ago. The train station was connected with underground, tunnels all...

    Should terrorists and their supporters lose their Canadian citizenship?

    Is it the UN’s prerogative to declare anyone or anything a terrorist organization (?) Or is that outside It’s Bally Wick? I believe, & I could be wrong, but it’s up to each nation state to declare what it sees as terrorist organizations or not. It (the UN) could have recognized victims on both...
