    Everything's Broken - latest Polievre youtube short

    It's a paradigm issue. Drug user advocates think that if there's no stigma socially at all to drugs and if the supply is 100 percent safe and better yet given for free or at least very cheap then the drug addicts are less likely to die or suffer anxiety over their drug use. So - because that's...

    Biden aides find second batch of classified documents at new location

    I got into an argument with Tecumseh about this - if it's so damned illegal why has it been months and months with no charges for his nibs, and now no charges for this twinkie who did the same thing? There's been a whole lotta yelling about something that nobody gets charged for.

    Biden aides find second batch of classified documents at new location

    https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/white-house/biden-aides-find-second-batch-classified-documents-new-location-rcna65371 So - biden had classified documents in an office and now another location from AFTER he left office under obama. Well well. I'll say one thing for US politics, it's...

    Another Trudeau scandal?

    There you go! I knew it was something relatively unattainable :) But yes, it's been recognized for some time that the current configuration really isn't any of those things. especially the first two. The idea was that the senate would have a more geographically influenced rather than purely...

    Everything's Broken - latest Polievre youtube short

    There has been so far. When it was 'decriminalized' for the safe injection sites we saw addiction rates climbing not reducing, and that has shot up. in fact since we did that overdose deaths have skyrocketed. it really can't.

    Canada’s cities see immigration-driven population surge after pandemic lull

    https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/article-canada-immigration-population-surge/ And no federal plan to address housing or medical shortages in these areas. That'll probably work out well.

    Biden hires lawyer to keep him out of jail

    The difference there is that he lawyered up AFTER being accused of committing a crime, not before he committed one :) Joking aside In general i agree that there's nothing particularly wrong about having a lawyer review what you do to make sure you don't run afoul of the law unintentionally. The...

    there might be somewhere, but obviously that is the rare exception. I"m sure that some pro drug person out there would say " but my uncle's cousin's second roomate knew a guy like that for sure!" but again, it's an addicting substance which seriously limits the user's ability to make...

    Everything's Broken - latest Polievre youtube short

    I know you probably meant to include this based on the rest of your post but that also has to include the ability to consume the drug over time responsibly. And unlike booze or dope, those harder drugs are extremely addictive. That makes it very very hard to consume them responsibly over time...

    Another Trudeau scandal?

    Well that question was kicked around quite a bit in harper's day - as you may recall he famously refused to appoint anyone to the senate for a very long time and many seats went vacant. The fact is we do need a senate, but the way our current senate is set up it just doesn't perform the role...

    What is a Man?

    That is both somewhat true and somewhat not. The fact is on the flip side women still have their hardwired instincts as well. There is a very good reason why there are fewer women engineers, fewer women soldiers, fewer women firefighters. And this is more true in societies that actually do...

    2SLGBTQQIA+

    There are no such genetic markers for gender other than those for sex which is very closely related but not quite the same. And many in the LGBNUMEROUSLETTERS community would insist that's the case, demanding that gender is a social construct exclusively. Mind you some say sex is a social...

    WE really need to get rid of this guy

    It wasn't long ago we were like that. Remember when a conservative MP and cabinet minister got fired over a glass of expensive orange juice? Now tho trudeau lines the pockets of himself and his buddies and the voters in the east are happy to keep him in power.

    Another Trudeau scandal?

    True. He's actually got a very keen eye for that kind of stuff. And his track record for predicting things has been spot on. It does give me hope, overall he's got a pretty solid mind for how gov't money works, and when he gets in he may well be able to turn things around much as harper did...

    Bill’s C-10 & C-11. If we aren’t talking about it already, shouldn’t we be?

    Well some people think that basic human rights should be a big deal But i get that you only feel that way about ones you like. Are you seriously suggesting it's against the regulations and law to dislike justin trudeau? Or to think that mask mandates are a bad idea? Where is that law written?
