Politics is unpredictable. The election of Donald Trump as president in the U.S. could prompt a backlash in Canada against right-wing politicians here, but it is hard to fathom how re-electing Justin Trudeau, a leader Trump openly despises, would improve things. Until last weekend, Marine Le...

McGill University announced the closure of its downtown campus Wednesday morning for a dismantling operation of the pro-Palestinian encampment that was set up more than 10 weeks ago. In a statement on its website, McGill said the university has been subject to "ongoing and escalating acts of...

I’d never know if something was or wasn’t. Actually Goat, when done well, is really really good!!! Got some Greek in-laws & damn…they do it over a spit for about 10 hours or so…basting every 10 minutes in olive oil & their own mix of seasonings, & Wow!!! Amazing stuff. Looks like a Greyhound on...

Well, NATO hasn’t gone to war yet, but it is meeting this week… http://apple.news/AfuoffrLaQDm4ta2HvTqZ9Q Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is in Washington, D.C. to mark the 75th anniversary of the formation of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, but it’s a domestic focus on trade that is...

Anyway, it’s interesting, from the outside looking in: Looks like the warm-up to the Paris Olympics, just over two weeks away. 😉 In this context and in this thread, would Macron be considered the middle/centre-ish here?

http://apple.news/AoV0ZJJEgQDC-g-61QBBUVA http://apple.news/AoD4DOHneR56LkkgyZjESAQ This isn’t a race thing, or just a crime thing, but a multi-tiered Justice thing that the current government is trying to sell to the public…. So that in less than 470 days… it can point the finger at the adults...

The report starts by stating that Canada’s criminal justice system was never meant to serve black Canadians but to harm them. When that’s the starting point, you know the report you are about to read is coming with a heavy political bias. Last week the federal Department of Justice published A...

Has that dude got a bowl full of huge curly fries? What are we looking at?

I wouldn’t know a fried chicken from a Halal fried chicken from a kosher fried chicken…But if they’ve taken bacon off the menu, that’s kind of sad…but it’s not like I’m dawning the doorway of a KFC more than once every three or four years anyway. Many moons ago, I had a very different bizarre...

We’ve got such a mixed pile of dogs at home at this point, pretty much anything is accurate. Four of them currently. All smaller than days gone by though because we’re getting older. My girlfriend brought home another rescue a few months ago. I call it, “Dog4.” It’s in there above if you look...

I was probably 40 years old before I ever tried poutine. Just wasn’t a thing here. If you said, Canadian like cabbage rolls and pierogies I’d be totally down with that. 😉 You can see (I can see) the confusion…

Has that dude got a plate full of huge mealworms? What are we looking at?

That’s the thing about us in the middle. Everybody thinks that they are in the middle. I think I’m in the middle (I’m probably not but I think that). You think you’re in the middle (you may be, or you may not be). Everybody on this forum thinks that they are in the middle (they may or may not be).

It’s the Trudeau/Moe game of badminton. Head swivel left right left right left right left right left right left right left right left right left right etc…

Jonathan Pedneault (Whom I thought was just Elizabeth May’s imaginary friend) is stepping down from his bid to co-lead the federal Green Party after internal debate and numerous delays impeded those plans, leaving the party's leadership back in the sole hands of Elizabeth May. Pedneault...

No idea. Perhaps asking the Palestinians, ‘cuz not all Palestinians are Hamas, but all Hamas…etc…? But which Palestinians to ask? Maybe the ones that want to exist in Hamas free bubbles? Maybe that’s too simple without a vetting system set up by Hamas though?

Canada, and other western nations, are being asked to redirect aid dollars currently earmarked for UNRWA to the self-governing bubbles and other projects led by Gazans who are unaffiliated with Hamas. Canada gave just under US$40 million (C$54.5 million) to the troubled UN agency last year...

Non-existent.

The NFP is a coalition of LFI, the Socialist party, the greens and the Communists. Economically, they are left of left. Their proposals include a 35-hour work week, moving to 32 hours following collective bargaining, and the retirement age moved back down to 60. They also want a 90 per cent top...
