As a native Alaskan (Aleut), I support Trump and his cabinets actions 100 percent! The one hundred years of democratic tainting by the LBJ leftists have now come to a crushing end! Everything he is doing is patriotic and pro nationalist, its about time we have a president that's actually for the people, and supports "We the People" not just a party or offshore special interest global corporations.

I have been hearing bubble for well over 25 years and has not happened yet. They told us that the 15% foreign buyer tax was going to cause a bubble. Well while it has dropped a bit here in price and sales have definitely dropped big time nothing to get excited over. As long as all the prices drop I could not care less if there is a bubble.

What the story did not, will not, and can not say, because of the nature of our liberal media, is that most native-born Canadians understand that religious accommodation is the law and there is no point protesting at the school board. The reason this has become a big angry mess in this particular region is that it is a region filled with immigrants from OTHER religions. It is largely them who are expressing the most vocal disagreement with the policy.

At the start of my retirement, I attended a "Science Expo" in Sandton. Talking to representatives of the Health Department, I asked what was being done to investigate the herbal and other 'sangoma' treatments, in order to expand (and legitimise) the general availability of traditional medicine. Nothing was being done, and as far as I know, that is still the case. So, if there is so much to "African Knowlege", why isn't it being acknowleged by the African Government?

True. Good things with Hawaii compared to places like in South East Asia is that Hawaii is surround by really deep ocean water that tends to be cooler than the shallower water such as the seas surrounding places like Japan or Philippines, Also massive mountains Mauna Kea & Loa on the big Island act like giant wind breaks since most hurricanes that hit Hawaii generally travel East to West hit the Big Island first since they generally follow the West to East rotation of the earth. The exceptions are Hurricane Iniki which traveled South of the Hawaiian islands but took an an unexpected north route up to Kauai. Of course as more heat is trapped in earth's atmosphere, the ocean temperatures, even around deep waters surrounding Hawaii will get warmer & warmer. Just takes a degree or two to really keep Hurricanes at full strength that start off around Mexico and make their way to Hawaii.

She would be well advised to fact-check her script, before she utters so much nonsense. The 'chemical attack' so far hasn't been proven to have been committed by the government (just because the Americans claim so). OPCW didn't collect any samples from the site and the US 'strike' was nothing but the swinging of a limp water hose (planes were taking off from that airfield the next day). For Ms Freeland's information: the Middle East is much larger, than just Syria; it is a complex web of often competing interests of states, languages and religions. Outside interests often collide as well. It is a perpetual powder keg and the only way to keep the lid on it is by having strongmen running each and every country there. I would expect more knowledge from someone, who - allegedly - is in charge of Canada's foreign policy (if there is such a thing).

"In the spring, Mr. Mulcair was 'tremendously worried that we would use our majority to ram through changes to Canada’s electoral system,' the Prime Minister told the House of Commons in response to the NDP Leader’s accusation. 'Now he’s changed his mind and he wants us to use our majority to ram through electoral changes.'" This is completely disingenuous on the part of the PM. In the first case, Mulcair wanted parliamentary input into electoral reform. In the second, he wants the PM to live up to his campaign PROMISE, that the 2015 federal election would be the last under FPTP. C'mon, Mr. Trudeau. Don't abandon your commitment.

I worked in a hip café as a young man, and the coffee cream was served in tiny stainless steel pitchers rather than the ubitquitous plastic creamers. We couldn't keep them in stock, they were the number one thing customers lifted. One customer actually asked a server "Do you mind if I steal this?" as she stuffed one into her purse. The waitress replied "If the tip is sufficient, not at all." But the staff was the worst by far. A group of cooks shared an old Victorian house close to their place of work, and at a fairly wild house party, the general manager dropped in. The desperate attempts to hide crockery, glassware, and the industrial sized case of toilet paper were worthy of the Keystone Cops.

Excellent! Powell is right on, and, full disclosure, a pal. I'm a sporadic Resist Trump Tuesday person and proud to support our national representatives (most of them) while they raise a ruckus resisting the insanity of the administration. But like Powell, I check into local politics a bit like I do with the weather. Same, same. Once in a while I pipe in on local issues, send an email and attend yearly neighborhood meetings. But it is exasperating to see infighting and arguing in our local politics that often seems personal gets our state nowhere.

" Theft, Assault, Rape"? No those are not okay and if an illegal was found to have done that, then by all means send him/her packing. However, for someone who has been a part of a community for a long time and shown themselves to be law abiding people with kids and homes, rounding them up is crazy. Some method of allowing them to apply for citizenship for a fee (maybe $1000 or 2), with evidence that they have been good people, seems a reasonable solution. Keep in mind that a lot has changed since may of them came in. It wasn't always such a big deal.

The cost-shifting from the State to local (and especially Anchorage) property owners, seniors, and our "best and brightest" kids (should start making some of the balanced revenue components of Walker's plan look better and better to those who have refused to consider them. Do they really think it's better to dump all the burden on (voting) residents and kids,, but leave hundreds of millions in oil tax credits untouched? If they don't want to kill the credits, they could at the least put them in abeyance until oil prices recover sharply, or there is a blue moon - whichever comes first... As far as Anchorage goes, would it really kill us to implement a sales tax to cover some local costs? It could be tailored to be minimally regressive, and to capture at least something from visitors.

When I was in grade school in Palmer during the 1950s, I'm sure we paid a ten cent deposit on our pop bottles. When we brought them back to the store, we got a return. I assume the bottles were cleaned and refilled. I don't know what was done with beer, whiskey and other glass retainers at that time. I guess they went in the trash. I have lived in Oregon since 1967. Our late governor, Tom McCall, helped get the Oregon "bottle bill" passed. We pay a deposit on all the glass, plastic and metal containers we buy. When we shop again we get a refund, like we did during the 1950s in Alaska. Alaska is not Oregon, where we have access to more recyclable options. I am always surprised that Anchorage, especially, doesn't have better recycling. Everything changes and I'm sure eventually things will eventually change in Alaska too.

Why are legislators also reluctant to lower the cost of contraception by making it available at the local pharmacy without a prescription, and at the very least why not allow women to fill a full year prescription at once?

That study's conclusion is an extreme example of "begging the question," and of how PC values deter accurate sociological study. The JJ study says that 15 to over 50% of Catholic priests are gay. But at the same time, the study is alleging that the thousands of cases of priests raping boys had nothing to do with "gay" men. What we have here is a deep reluctance to admit the truth -- homosexual priests were the cause of the sex abuse scandal.

"If a righteous person sins, then all the good that they may have done will not save them. And if an unrighteous person repents, and turns away from sin, then their sins, though they may be many, shall not be held against them." Most of the churches emphasize the second part, and often omit the first part. Repentance isn't an "I'm sorry". Repentance is to never do it again. Too many churches teach that nobody can be perfect, that you're always going to sin. I say that they are always going to sin ... and that some of us are earnestly trying to quit sinning any sin whatsoever.
