    Self Defence in Canada?

    Very cool. When I was rock crushing, I would absolutely destroy cheap work boots in six months, and the expensive ones would last the better part of the year. Out of the last half a dozen pairs, my favourites where actually made by Michelin, and they were awesome (!!) and I got a little over a...

    Trudeau announces Amira Elghawaby as Canada's first representative to combat Islamophobia

    The U of R recently booted/evicted its own student union. The university evicted URSU from campus late last month, citing a "loss of confidence in URSU's ability to serve and represent students." I haven’t really followed it in all honesty...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Perhaps the next one will be trade deficit related? What or who’s going to be best for the American economy (eventually) to be involved in a war with?

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, introduced as the Secretary of War by Trump, cheered the change, which he has long advocated. "We're going to go on the offense, not just on defense. Maximum lethality, not tepid legality," Hegseth said? Against who (or is that whom?)? Maybe that’s not relevant...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Good question. No idea yet…U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday to rename the Department of Defense the "Department of War," reverting to a title it held until after World War Two when officials sought to emphasize the Pentagon's role in preventing conflict. "It's a...

    Electric shock: A new study found that EVs were more expensive to fuel than gas-powered cars at the end of 2022

    Carney announced on Friday that Canada’s zero-emission vehicle sales mandate that was set to come into effect in 2026 will be delayed for a year while the government reviews the policy. The mandate, which would have required at least 20 per cent of new vehicles sales in 2026 to be zero-emission...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy has long been pushing for a direct meeting with Putin in order to make progress towards ending Europe's deadliest war for 80 years. Putin said on Friday that he did not see much point in such a meeting because "it will be practically impossible to reach...

    Three Days a Week?

    “it will be harder to get help with tax issues and already long wait times will get longer,” the CCPA analysis warns. “Help with Employment Insurance and Canada Pension Plan payments to seniors could become harder to find.” http://apple.news/ApR_nX1VMT1qDzpHDyNqPKw And don’t expect faster help...

    At that age, my father would’ve been your Scout Leader (mid 60’s-mid-70’s) had you been involved there. “Good luck, good hunting, & go straight home” sorta thing. No, because it doesn’t interest me, because I don’t swim in that pool.

    No. Not really. Anglican Sunday School is half a century (& a bit) in my past, but wasn’t Jesus suppose to have been the “Son of God” (and Mary, and maybe Joseph too)? {Went to St. John’s (I think it was called) over on 4th by your place actually. Not sure if it’s even a church anymore} (If...

    Self Defence in Canada?

    (YouTube & Canada’s Legal Self-Defense Weapons (Surprising Options!)) Basically, if it’s a weapon, it can’t be used as a weapon, but improvised items, as long as you can justify carrying them not as a weapon…might be able (maybe) to be used as a self-defence weapon, or not.

    I’m not religious so I’m pretty much on the outside of this, but….I sort of thought that Jews and Christians and Muslims all prayed to the same God more or less? Are you saying that that God doesn’t exist?
