    Canadian Federal Election Outcome October 20th (or 27th?), 2025.

    Here’s the movement in the last week: There are two by-elections tomorrow, & in theory, the NDP should probably get the one in Winnipeg, and it’s a three-way tossup for the one in Montreal between the Libs, NDP & Bloc…& I’m assuming (& it’s just an assumption) the Bloc might take that one.

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

    “I'm looking forward to being there on Monday and working with the opposition parties, in whatever configuration that looks like, to deliver on important pieces of legislation for Canadians,” Government House Leader Karina Gould told CTV’s Question Period host Vassy Kapelos, in an interview...

    BREAKING!! TRUMP HAS BEEN SHOT

    ….& again? Donald Trump was the target of an apparent assassination attempt Sunday in Florida, the FBI said, with the Republican presidential candidate's campaign and law enforcement reporting he was safe and unharmed. The US Secret Service confirmed one or more of its agents "opened fire on a...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    It’s been a long day and I’ve just had a chance to watch that video above… This above, I can believe, and they should expect targeted retaliation. This…this at Mach 8-9, at least we know where this claim came from. …to force concessions from Netanyahu…

    Do you ever remember the friendly giant having short sleeves? Did you ever see Mr Dress-up or Casey with short sleeves? Did you ever wonder why? What were they hiding?

    Hamas attacks Israel

    I haven’t had the chance to watch the above vid (in a public place), but with some quick math, that’s (2040km in 11.5 minutes) over 6600mph so what the Hell kind’a stuff is coming out’a “Achmed’s Home Hardware & Missile Supply Store” or Iran, or Russia??? Hypersonic and seemingly un-targeted...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    The Houthi’s didn’t seem to be targeting anything specifically here, but again, just a statement that this distance is a possibility… Now, where did this long range missile come from (?) before the Houthi’s shot it into Israel in this statement? Iran or “Achmed’s Home Hardware & Missile Supply...

    Liberal stronghold riding in Toronto up for grabs today!!!

    Weird question but, where is this coming from? I tried to do a quick search on the forum itself to go backwards, out of curiosity, and I really didn’t get anywhere.

    Refugee/Migrant Crisis

    Canada currently has 236,000 asylum seekers, a factor of a drastic incline. In just 2016, only 24,000 refugee claims were made; that number sextupled to 145,000 in 2023. The approval rate is an incredibly high 78 per cent, but this is in part a factor of wide admissions criteria. A suspicious...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    We enjoy debating/fencing with each other. It just happens to be this topic at this point. I could argue the Palestinian side & Petros the Israeli side, & it’s complex enough that it would be easy to do so, but this is the way it’s played out so far and here we are.

    Anywho… (I’m assuming there where no holocaustages in that part of Syria for Israel to concern itself with) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran%E2%80%93Russia_relations Israel has yet to, during this most recent war, make incursions into the Vatican or London or Berlin (as for as we know, but...

    Hamas attacks Israel

    There’s something really really wrong with attacking a grain ship. I didn’t realize grain was part of that barter/trade/payment and wouldn’t have connected those dots. I assumed payment would have been from donor countries contributing cash to the cause, to countries with the 122 & 155mm rounds...

    I was just trying to work with your numbers and the date surrounding them. My bad. The first (not only) large-scale exoduses took place in the late 1940s and early 1950s, primarily from Iraq, Yemen, and Libya. The peak of the exodus from Egypt occurred in 1956, following the Suez Crisis. The...

    Liberal stronghold riding in Toronto up for grabs today!!!

    Despite a rocky summer that began with the loss of a long-held Toronto riding and ended with the resignation of his national campaign director, Mr. Trudeau remains defiant and determined to run again. He is unswayed by public-opinion polls that show Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre cementing...

    I wish. My paycheque would go much further. Single breadwinner family incomes were the norm. %’age of annual income towards things like home ownership, retail automotive costs, etc…where much lower. Post-war booming peacetime economy, but I’m assuming that’s not where you’re going here. So the...
