    Good argument for gun control

    The 2nd Amendment was drafted at a time when the US lacked a standing army and needed a ready militia for times of crisis. It was never intended as a means for Americans to carry out what is in effect an ongoing civil war, with thousands of deaths a year. The gun lobby hides behind the 2nd...

    King Steve

    I get that any would-be absolute ruler has a problem with putting up with the annoyances of working within an open democratic system, but should we really put up with a PM who says he couldn't care less about our political freedoms? When Harper claims it's all about the economy he's being...

    Pay no attention...

    ...to the man behind the curtain. How many people actually believe it was Bev Ota who made the decision to cut funding to Kairos.

    Swift-Boating morons

    Apparently you need to be a republican to be brave in America. I just finished reading Steve Ambroses' The Wild Blue about B-24 crews in WW II which focuses on George McGovern who later ran for President on the Democrat ticket. In 1972 the far right did the same thing to him they did to...

    The Republic of Canada

    Is there a way to make our Parlimentary system work in it's current form or is it time to change to another democratic system such as a Republic like the US?

    Bring Back the Queen

    Seeing as how our PM keeps running to the Queens representative whenever he gets in over his head perhaps we should return to a more stable and less complex form of government. Instead of all the huge expense of elections and paying for several hundred MP who've basically been sidelined by a...
