The concept that fairness be applied to one and all is what this country is supposed to be based on freedom and rights..
And how is the application of this particular immigration law unfair?

So tell me what Ann Wright did wrong ?
She has an arrest record, as simple as that. I had to get three pardones, costing me $6000CDN to enter the US. Or not bother. I have no one to blame but myself.

This is what I worry about.. Now we are banning everyone one as it started with a single person and now is moving to everyone we do not like..
:roll: This has nothing to do with 'who we like'. This is a simple immigration law.

Who is next, the person with GREEN eyes ?
I'm going to ignore this irrational comment.
Your point ? Mine was irrelevant to the man and I specifically said
I don't argue for hypocrites. I guess you do. Because your attempted argument, falls flat on its face as being nonsensical and irrelevant.

Nope no freaking idea.. What do you think ??
I think you do not understand the immigration laws and how they are applied consistently, in this country. That's what I think.

Eddie Greenspan, whose opinion I value, after the verdict, said it was all about freedom of speech. I won't change my mind, either, shrill voices or no shrill voices.
Of course he said that, it makes great sound bites for the morons of the world to grasp on to and get his name in the lime light.

I'ld love for you to show me how his message has been censored in this country...

Seriously, please do...

The coward that red rep'd post #122, should first grow some balls and sign their rep, like I do, good or bad. Then just simply grow up.

You too? I got a couple. You gotta wonder about somebody that is so cowardly as to hide behind anonymity in a web forum where they are already anonymous. Spineless doesn't even begin to describe them.:lol:

You choose your own label.
I know where I stand, and on what line. I was just curious, that's all.

Makes me laugh, I liked the comment too. Not that it actually applies, which is what makes it so funny.

You just don't see it.

She has an arrest record, as simple as that. I had to get three pardones, costing me $6000CDN to enter the US. Or not bother. I have no one to blame but myself.

An Arrest record.. Not criminal conviction..
Even if she did why do we allow Pro-Sports atheletes in and they get exemptions ?


:roll: This has nothing to do with 'who we like'. This is a simple immigration law.

Yes it does.. We can now let in who we want and who we don't at our whim. Music, Movie and Pro-Sports stars come and go as they wish no metter how bad they are at the discreation of Immigration Canada.

I'm going to ignore this irrational comment.

What ever..

I don't argue for hypocrites. I guess you do. Because your attempted argument, falls flat on its face as being nonsensical and irrelevant.

It's your argument that falls flat.. Not mine..

I think you do not understand the immigration laws and how they are applied consistently, in this country. That's what I think.

Guess not.. 5 years ( 10 years total in the Federal Gov't ) at working for them in would leave you clueless..

Yup...

I guess that's why I asked you to explain your position.

Because from where I stand, it looks like Immigration Canada applied the law as it is written.

I don't read into things when Okkums Razor looks like it applies.

An Arrest record.. Not criminal conviction.. Even if she did why do we allow Pro-Sports atheletes in and they get exemptions ?
And guess what, simply being under indictment can bar you from entry into Canada. These are the rules, they're simple.

Yes it does.. We can now let in who we want and who we don't at our whim. Music, Movie and Pro-Sports stars come and go as they wish no metter how bad they are at the discreation of Immigration Canada.
They qualify for exemption under circumstance. Find me a pro athlete or Pop star that contributes to terrorist organiseations, and I'll show you someone else that doesn't get into Canada.

BUT! I will concede, and even agree with you that these examptions...wait for it...should not be given. Period.

It's your argument that falls flat.. Not mine..
That's as mature and nonsensical as "I know you are, but what am I?"

Try again.

Your arguing this, on ideology and trying to disguise it as questioning the Fed's. I'm not buying it. Your argument fails the test. You've tried to skirt timelines, and apply nonsensical 'what if's'. It fails, simple as that.
Guess not.. 5 years ( 10 years total in the Federal Gov't ) at working for them in would leave you clueless..
And you don't understand the laws...Postal worker were ya? Janitorial? Paper shredder? You have me all a tither here, please do tell...

I actually believe you. Because only a Gov't employee could be as obtuse and nonsensical, as your posts are.

My father in law was a janitor at in the Parliament buildings, collected a Federal cheque for 30 years. Should we get his expert opinion too?

lone wolf: Before that, I believed the Sunday School variant of an Israel filled with good shepherds and benevolent wise men. What a crock of shyte!

.

That is just the brochure version. When you take a bite of that little twinkle you quickly find a rotten core of a kind that resembles apartheid inside. Still, people until this day are always drawn to the packaging.

I know that from having worked in the advertising industry. Propaganda/advertising... same deal. People will buy nicely packaged garbage. It works effectively though sometimes people catch on if they can figure things out for themselves in the end.

Now again,

So tell me what Ann Wright did wrong ?

Who or what terrorist organization did she give money too ?

I keep saying this over and over and over and over again:

IT DOESN"T MATTER IF THEY DID ANYTHING WRONG!!!!! Sorry to shout, but my God, you people are deaf.

This thread has gone through more straw men....is it censorship? Is Hamas legal? Legitimate? Is Galloway an icon of truth or a "pimp for fascism" ?

Canada can restrict the entrance of any non-Canadian for any reason, legitimate or otherwise, on a whim. this is our house, and we are under no obligation to let anyone in. As decided on a whim, by the bureaucrats we hire to decide, at arm's length from the gov't that represents us.

That is the way it is. As decided in court today.

And the way it should be.

Don't like terrorists?

Reagan always did and invited them into the White House:

Gopher, why do you keep bringing up what your presidents have done in the past? What the hell does that have to do with what Canada has or should do?

With the amount of straw men in this thread....I'm surprised it hasn't been shut down as a fire hazard.

All right already, we get it. You don't like Republicans. Why don't you just start a thread and all the guys that have a hard-on for the right can go have their circle jerk there and leave these other threads alone. Galloway has nothing to do with Bush, Reagan, Cheney, Palin, Ford, Schwartzenegger, Rush or Ann. I'm not really sure if you are amusing or annoying. I do know that you aren't doing the American left any favors. You are looking quite foolish coming here and assuming Canadians discussing a Canadian issue care that you don't like Nixon.

The point is that you clowns say you don't like terrorists. But what you fail to understand is that your Republican heroes are the ones who create them.

Galloway gave money and you get angry over that? Hell, Reagan gave millions and you sit there and wipe his butt. Why the hypocrisy?

I realize the majority of Canadians don't agree with your far right looonies and I applaud the views they take. But why can't you see the same truth they so readily do?
