    Majority of Conservative voters support defunding the CBC — but not attacks on media

    I'm not even 100 percent sure how that works, if the feds have the legal right to sell off a crown corp set up the way the CBC is. I'd have to do the research. I don't think the feds would be on the hook to the staff tho, the 'corporate veil' would protect against that for sure. I like the...

    More than 300 new mines needed to meet electric vehicle demand, says analyst

    Now, you think about how much gas and such has to be used to open those mines and 'mine' them... then the fact that in most of the world the electricity comes from burning fossil fuels anyway.... Not to mention that it doesn't sound like we're going to be able to open that many mines in...

    Bullshit. Wars are man's choice. Sounds like you're worshipping something more like a devil than a god. Maybe don't do that.

    Majority of Conservative voters support defunding the CBC — but not attacks on media

    There really is no way. And the CBC exercises severe control over who gets the 'privlidge' of making canadian content. Their friends and like minded people get the chance, others don't. Much better to get rid of them entirely and find another way to fund Canadian content makers.

    Pierre Poilievre’s callous courting of Canada’s ‘deplorables’ (left wing in full panic mode)

    It's true that as a person trudeau is a fascist. He hasn't exactly hidden it, he's expressed his admiration for totalitarian regimes, his family was great friends with Castro. He viciously attacks anyone who speaks against him or his messages, etc. etc Fortunately our system does prevent him...

    Alec Baldwin fired shot that killed one, wounded another on film set

    Well the obvious answer there is make sure you order staplers that cost at least a million :) I believe this is the theory military procurement works under.

    338Canada projects Conservative victory if election held right now (just barely :) )

    https://angusreid.org/federal-politics-sept-2022/ That's the second poll that suggests the lead is really opening up. PP's favorability rating is also climbing, although strangely in Canada that's never been a great predictor of how people are going to vote. It's pretty common for a new...

    Majority of Conservative voters support defunding the CBC — but not attacks on media

    Well that in essence is what 'defunding' means. They will still be able to do business as much as they'd like, but now all their revenues will have to come from sales just like everyone else. SO if they're not selling content people and advertizers are willing to pay for then they go under...

    Muslim Brotherly Love via Torch light

    Nuclear weapons are not the wrath of god. They're more like the wrath of bill nye the science guy. You want wrath of god, you go with locust or flood the earth for a month or so.

    Alec Baldwin fired shot that killed one, wounded another on film set

    Yeah, but even there while that's truly horrible and detestable it actually does cost a fair bit of money to maintain aircraft. So you could at least see how a cheap bastard who didn't care about lives might think it was a good idea to save the cash. But the gun safety stuff, that's a complete...

    Omnibus Russia Ukraine crisis

    Sure, i mean the reservists WERE all regular army at one point. Service is compulsory after all and then you're automatically put into the reserves. So i don't disagree with you for the reserves being mobilized right now. But, you have to remember the premise being offered was that the initial...

    Pierre Poilievre’s callous courting of Canada’s ‘deplorables’ (left wing in full panic mode)

    Sure it is. Why not? Bet you can't answer that. So ... russia, venezuela, china, cuba until more recently.... Ummmm.... they all fit your definition..... They "lead' to the same thing because they ARE the same thing. RIght wing ideology is about less gov't, more personal freedoms and...

    BREAKING:#Alberta announces it will NOT participate in the federal firearm buyback program

    We basically already were - about half our population is ex albertans ;) But we'll need to get rid of the ndp to even start to have that discussion.

    Pierre Poilievre’s callous courting of Canada’s ‘deplorables’ (left wing in full panic mode)

    Actually the left likes to portray it like that but it's more of an example of far left. Was it techumseh who said that the political spectrum isn't really a line, it's a horseshoe? Authortarianism is fundimentally opposed to most right wing thinking. Freedom, personal choice, personal...

    Queen Elizabeth

    Canada owes its existence to the brits. It does not owe it to France at all, and it certainly doesn't owe it to the vikings who all died. Like - at least france had SOME sort of relevance but why you would think the nation of Canada owed its existence to a small village of people who all passed...

    Majority of Conservative voters support defunding the CBC — but not attacks on media

    Well the problem is the entire media model they use is out of date and not sustainable. And we've seen this weird evolution as they all try to adapt - they went from old school reporting where people dug in and got facts about a story and reported it and tried to present real 'news', to people...

    Queen Elizabeth

    No, that's literally not true. Canada is a nation. Canada did not exist before the creation of that nation. And it IS something the woke profess for various reasons. Canada first came into existance in 1867. It is a lie to pretend otherwise. Canada did NOT exsist prior to the creation of...
