    Bill’s C-10 & C-11. If we aren’t talking about it already, shouldn’t we be?

    Canada’s Military current state & equipment

    Depending on somebody’s competency with a sword (& the style of sword itself), I’m not sure I’d wanna go up against somebody who grew up with a machete in their hand. http://www.haitianfencing.org/

    Men's mental health suffering in the workplace, survey finds

    I’m assuming (without having any reasonable justification for doing so) that your comment is somewhat tongue in cheek….or not. Most men seem to just plug along, day after day, week after week, year after year, silently, regardless of their circumstances with the “Suck it up Buttercup”...

    Public Inquiries into Emergencies Act begin September 19

    The timelines were actually set out in 1988. Trudeau has definitely put his own mark on things in an inquiry into his own governments decision though.

    WE really need to get rid of this guy

    Back to the whole China interfering in Canadian Federal Elections thing in 2019 & 2021 again: As a refresher, in early November, a Global News report claimed Trudeau was warned LAST JANUARY about a Chinese-led funding network that included at least 11 candidates in the 2019 federal election...

    WE really need to get rid of this guy

    Maybe…maybe Chinese Interference in Canadian Federal Elections has been a positive thing for the Liberal Party of Canada, and thus the silence until recently when the media stopped letting the story fade away repeatedly? Is that what we’re seeing?
