    Tiger Woods- Arrogant or....................?

    Just heard on the news that Tiger Woods' public apology was limited and he was holding back some information as personal. Maybe the public is just a little too nosy about things that don't legitimately concern them. What do you think?

    High Canadian dollar - Good or Bad

    Historically a high Canadian dollar has had the downside that our exports aren't as attractive, but on the news the other day a financial expert said that this is no longer necessarily the case. Now that our dollar is high we are in a position where we can import stuff cheaper and take...

    Forum members opinion poll

    I guess there is no getting away from the fact that the Federal Government is short of money. From my view there is two solutions to this...........1. Borrow the money needed and 2. Raise taxes. So if you have an opinion you can simply write "B" for borrow or "T" for tax or "O" for other means.

    Canadian crime statistics

    So we compare crime stats in two jurisdictions and find one is higher than the other. What does that prove? Could it be that there are more policemen in one? Could it mean one has tougher judges or more corrupt lawyers? Could it mean that some jurisdictions are tougher at enforcing the laws...

    How the GW myth is perpetuated

    Yep- a red herring bordering on bullsh*t. I think someone observed parts of Greenland were thawing in the summer and it didn't take long for that to get grossly exaggerated. :lol:

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Maybe not so much evil as just controlling while at the same time being misinformed. Take the rabid tree huggers. Cutting down any tree anywhere for any reason is taboo. They apply the same logic to saving "tree lives" as you would to human lives. In recent years we've come to reap the...

    Smoking in sight of young people criminal offense

    Should it be a criminal offense to smoke within 1000 feet of a person under age 25? Penalty should be $1000 fine if it's a young woman, $100 fine if it's a young man, as young women are far more influenced by the sight of someone smoking. If it's a cigar the fine automatically doubles.

    HEALTH CARE - User fees

    With our healthcare system being in a bad state of disarray to the point where people are waiting months for certain procedures and people in some areas are even finding it next to impossible to have their own family doctor, I think something fairly unorhtodox has to be done. I suggest that for...

    Global Warming ‘Greatest Scam in History’

    Is there a single aspect of Global Warming that has not been discussed here? I suggest that instead of rewriting the same stuff over and over, before writing anything just review the 2000 posts that have already been written. What is happening here amounts to "sawing sawdust".
