You also can’t continuously break Canadian laws in parliamentary ethics code and expect to be re-elected repeatedly but here we are? Where are we on the Hauwei decision with respect the 5G now anyway, and why? Hmmm….What could influence stalling that decision (for Years!) that alienates our...

Our government needs to be in the financial position (outside of a metropolitan area of Vancouver Montreal Toronto Ottawa) with being able to afford to buy & plate & insure & maintain ONE vehicle that has to fit ALL their needs… in a geographically spread out nation (that is Canada outside of...

Zelensky was elected as a popular comedian but nobody is laughing now. I too think he’s the real deal. I think Putin was trying to stamp out the voice of the Ukrainian peoples back in 2013 before Zelensky though, and what what Zelensky represents as an example not only to all of us but to the...

I like that. Maybe more of a horseshoe magnet though, and the poles at the ends attract assholes instead of ferrous metals.

Weirdly, what you are describing, and labeling as “Right-wing logic” I see fitting our current government in Canada. Maybe it’s not “Right-wing logic” but “Authoritarian-wing logic” which can come from either extreme of the political compass? http://www.britannica.com/topic/authoritarianism Does...

Hmmm….Does Irish MP above say how she plans to negotiate with Putin to “meet him in the middle” with diplomacy? I’m trying to see where the recent (I can go back hundreds of years but recent) conflict originates from to try & figure out where she would start? What she would offer?? In November...

1% for a Cartoon Elephant? What is that symbolic of?

Right now for the little one it’s Crayons and Blues Clues and Grandma’s shiny things that she know she’s not supposed to touch. Boundaries & pushing them…. A bit of interest in Hot-wheels, none really in Dolls as yet, but a fascination with the aquariums (yes, multiple) and especially the...

No worries & been there in the heat & speed of reacting to posts quickly (If our youngest Granddaughter was even remotely interested in Barbies, & Rhubarb had thumbs…she’d be in there playing Barbies or Matchbox Cars too just to be with Claire).

What I was trying to say was, a child is not raised in a vacuum, and it’s more than mommy and daddy needed to influence a child in their social and mental development. It’s grandparents and uncles and aunts and neighbours and friends and teachers and care givers all contributing to the child’s...

Former Ontario Liberal premier Kathleen Wynne has belatedly acknowledged one of her biggest mistakes was her failure to listen to warnings about how her government’s green energy policies would increase the cost of electricity. Unfortunately, it comes too late to do the people of Ontario any...

Honesty I’ve never heard of the guy before two days ago, & someone has to be the expert until somebody better comes along, & the guy who played Cliff on Cheers was busy…..so….

The budget will be presented to Parliament in less than two hours by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland. The weight of that budget seems very taxing…..

“It takes a village to raise a child.”

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland may effectively tell the Bank of Canada it’s on its own in tackling inflation when she introduces a budget Thursday that’s expected to be full of new spending initiatives. In the lead-up to the release, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government has indicated...

In her new budget, Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland will have the difficult task of combining costly election platform promises, increased spending for defence to meet NATO’s targets as well as enough social spending to make sure the New Democrats are happy. At the same time, she will have to...

The budget will be presented to Parliament around 4 p.m. ET (2000 GMT) by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland.

After Speaker of the House Anthony Rota last summer ordered that documents related to the firing of two scientists from Winnipeg’s microbiology lab be given to MPs for review, the Liberal government took him to court. It was a galling attempt to override Parliament’s ancient powers to conduct...

But, Sunny Ways!? Budget will balance itself (?) ‘cuz it’s 2015 Peoplekind? NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh should have pushed for a formal coalition with the Liberals. He could have been finance minister and taken full credit for Thursday’s budget, which, if he didn’t write it, is certainly being...

It came upon us rather suddenly, but all things considered, it was surely no surprise. I refer to the joyous political nuptials of NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who are still in the honeymoon phase of their relationship. When the coalition — a word of some distaste...
