    In Canada, are the Conservatives the Centerist Party?

    OK, gotta say. . . I know pretty much the square root of dick about Chretien, but ya gotta admire a man who gets that far in politics with a name that's so easily pronounced "cretin."

    Election 2024

    Your Liberals do seem kinda crazy-ass lefty from my perspective. I've heard it said that the U.S. has a center-right party (Dems) and a far-right party (Reps). A long look at our "peer countries" seems to bear that out.

    Election 2024

    I remember clearly that in 1980, good, honest, well-intentioned Americans quite seriously, and with great concern, asked whether a man who had been divorced was morally fit to be President. Heh-heh. We were so naive. . .

    Election 2024

    Meh, it's like being a passenger on a train. Hundreds of people on board, but only a couple of guys who can actually make decisions.

    Wherever would we have been without the might of Canada ensuring our freedom?

    Election 2024

    Are you actually interested? OK, here's the deal. . . After decades of forcing people who simply cannot abide the fact that some folk see things differently to use weasel-words like "the Black community" where once they used the simple "niggers," we are at the point where codewording and...

    In Canada, are the Conservatives the Centerist Party?

    OK, well. . . BC is easy. The Alouettes! For the Cons, I figure Roughriders is pretty good. NDP is the Me-Toos (no, not "metis," "me too!" dammit!) The Libs? I'd go with the "What's So Funny 'Bout Peace, Love, and Understanding Party," but Elvis Costello'd probably sue. And of course. . ...

    In Canada, are the Conservatives the Centerist Party?

    1) Bloc Quebecois -- their honest philosophy of "Fuck you, Jacques, I got mine!" is downright American. 2) "Fantasists" works for me. Their base motivation is to return to a Canada that never existed. Much like the U.S. Republicans, who think Happy Days was a documentary. To give y'all full...

    In Canada, are the Conservatives the Centerist Party?

    A party of trivial dwama queens would stroke out. FFS, cradle-to-grave socialists calling themselves Conservatives. It's like the fucking Army calling itself the Peace Corps.

    In Some Countries They Assassinate You If You Challenge the Presidency

    The President can't pardon state convictions. But thanks for playing.

    I'm sure that made sense in your head.

    Dope

    Yep, sounds about right. An improvement to the state of things, but neither the panacea for all ills some claimed it would be, nor even as good as it might have been if better managed. Thanks for the evaluations, folks.

    They say in a parliamentary system, all governments end in failure.

    April Fools!! Here's your Carbon Tax F#ckers!!!

    Have the Tories proposed any of that in the specific context of paying for the 35-cents-a-jug cut?

    Election 2024

    Ain't doing yours much good either. But for some of us, there's cold comfort in the fact that in a democracy, the people have no one to blame but themselves.

    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    'Tis a lovely wee hamlet in the glens of Lake Watchalookinat. Sorry, analysis and explanation takes a bit of exposition.

    Donald Trump Announces 2016 White House Bid

    If he runs out of money, he can always sell his gold shitter and his grandkids.

    Two years into the Trudeau 2.0 Minority Term, which day will Justin call the election that only he wants?

    I conclude, as an outsider, that this is "self dealing." Let us say that the Member from Upyabutt, Saskbertitobario, was a teacher, simply bringing knowledge and skills to children, when the direction of education and the health and cognition of the kids parading through her classroom began to...
