    Greenland

    But he’s respecting the will of the American people? Only a very small percentage of Americans are in favour of taking Greenland from Denmark by force, with recent polls indicating support as low as 4% to 9%. The majority of Americans, typically over 70%, strongly oppose such a military...

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    I was just winging that off the top of my head, without knowing about the email you received. That was just the first thing that came to mind without being overly paranoid or Machiavellian.

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    As far as the legal (or formerly legal) gun owners in Canada go…can you picture the Federal Government sending each and every licensed owner a registered letter that is mandatory to be filled out and sent back…& asking if you’re one of the millions of people on that list that happened to own one...

    What Emergency Act?

    http://apple.news/ADsixF4ZXRIeF3ORO2D4GRQ http://apple.news/AeEecT_EwRguDWd30JlUJdQ As of January 16, 2026, the Federal Court of Appeal has upheld a ruling that the Liberal government’s 2022 invocation of the Emergencies Act was unreasonable, unlawful, and violated Charter rights. The ruling...

    What Emergency Act?

    How about former deputy prime minister and finance minister Chrystia Freeland? Or current Prime Minister Mark Carney? Either in power, or in an advisory role, it was them, after all, who were responsible for the gross overreach in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic-era trucker’s Freedom Convoy...

    Gun Control is Completely Useless.

    If the Liberal government in Ottawa is proud of its “Assault-Style Firearms Compensation Program”— the long-discussed gun buyback program — then it has a very odd way of showing it. Governments often dump news they’re not happy with late on a Friday, the Friday of a long weekend, if it’s really...

    Greenland

    Maybe there’s a bit of an obligation for a NATO member not to threaten to annex through force territory of another NATO member… that is in the same defence pact. Maybe I’m speaking crazy talk though but… http://apple.news/Avq-0pFL3RQSyXVHObjIEkQ

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    Adolf Hitler was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1939 by Erik Gottfrid Christian Brandt, a member of the Swedish Parliament, as a satirical protest against appeasement and the nomination of British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain, but Brandt withdrew the nomination days later, and...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    The administration of President Donald Trump would enact new tariffs almost immediately if the Supreme Court struck down sweeping global tariffs as illegal that the president launched under an emergency law, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer told the New York Times in an interview...

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    Yes, they did…& Jimmy Carter got one, and Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson and Barack Obama. Though Hitler was nominated for one…he didn’t get one.

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    U.S. President Donald Trump in a written message to Norway's prime minister said he no longer feels obligated "to think purely of Peace" because he had not been awarded a Nobel Peace Prize, and he repeated his demand for control of Greenland. (Maybe Trump forgot that Greenland is an autonomous...

    The Tarriff Hype.

    Poilievre repeatedly, but he doesn’t get much notice lately. You couldn't make this stuff up. A U.S. president threatens to pile an extra tax on American consumers in order to force a European country to sell him a territory it can't legally sell. Oh, and the tariffs themselves might well be...

    Greenland

    …& if America wasn’t benefitting from being in NATO 30 years ago, it wouldn’t have been in NATO 30 years ago…but it was and is…so it’s at least a two-way street with America having a beneficial value to itself by being in NATO. NATO is America’s anchor into Europe and its stepping stone to the...

    Greenland

    They are distancing themselves from NATO why again? Over what again? Let me just make sure I’ve got this straight. So…essentially…Trump/America are one of the 32 countries in NATO, and then Trump wants to annex/buy/take by force Greenland from another NATO nation, and is already threatening...

    The New York Declaration.

    I’m sure Israel (one of the two parties in this proposed peace plan) would be totally down with a partial Hamas disarmament & stockpiling their current weaponry (in the freezer, so to speak) away for maybe 5 to 10 years before their next Oct 7th 2.0 so yeah, I understand your point...

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    Back in December, Fifa awarded Trump its inaugural 'Peace Prize' at the 2026 World Cup draw ceremony in Washington, saying he had "played a pivotal role" in establishing a ceasefire and promoted peace between Israel and Palestine, and that he has sought to end other conflicts. Then Trump can...
