In a nutshell the problem we have is that in Canada we do not have free speech. Do not for one minute think that you have the same right to free speech that our American neighbours have protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. Oh, what is this you say? We have Freedom of Expression Guaranteed by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. NO you do not and why not? Well... Trudeau senior was very cagey when he crafted that Charter. Sure section 2(b) of the Charter says "Freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression..." but the old curmudgeon stuck in a clause that could take it away. That's right, the infamous weasel clause or section 1. Believe me the Americans never would have stood for that but we had that bamboozled right by us. Section 1 lets the courts take your freedoms away and as long as the 9 Santa Suites in Ottawa says it is for the good of a free & democratic society "POOF" your rights disappear. Bye bye free speech.

Christianity, like almost every other religion / cult of superstition is all about a phoney After Life Insurance Scam. Denial of Death is at the heart of most cults of belief in supernatural beings, supernatural powers and "spirits". When doctors were trying to get me psyched up to stick with their anticancer program for me when my haemoglobin was just 43 (1/3 normal) one of them asked "what about Religion and Spirituality". I just laughed at her and she went on to the next item in her check list. The reality is that the 10s of thousands of no longer believing Christian Clergy often say that learning the futility of prayer was one of the major factors in them realising that it is all a myth. https://www.thinkingchristian.net/posts/2012/06/why-i-support-the-atheist-clergy-project/ "I could see that prayers weren’t healing people, despite preaching on wealth the only people getting rich were the pastor."

“Hillary would not be under investigation so quickly.” Nice try, Skippy, but no sale. The very thing that holed her campaign at the waterline - - her blasé attitude toward national security lapses for which the Rosenbergs were transferred to Sing Sing so they could ride old sparky - - would have been investigated to a fare thee well, the evidence of which would have provided the House to the wherewithal to pass articles of impeachment and the Senate the grounds for conviction. It has long been thought that “God takes care of fools, drunks and the United States of America.” Never more so than on 8 November last year. Trump’s unlikely triumph is evidence that the hand of Providence is at work. Alleluia ! Alleluia ! Alleluia ! Amen

The current majority party shouldn't criticize each other? That attitude, sir, is one of the major problems with the modern republican party...lockstep extremism and a "we'll tell you how to vote and what to say" approach to governing. That lockstep extremism has republicans in the Senate refusing to even consider a 9th supreme court nominee. The party lockstep, do as your party leaders tell you attitude is how we end up with crappy government. This attitude is sometimes present on the democratic side of the aisle but it's a set in stone rule on the republican side and a much, much bigger problem with conservatives.

Hand-raised to be a Russophobe from the cradle, Freeland has more personal baggage than an airport, and she's so out of her depth it's depressing. Diplomacy is an art, but in the west it has never been so judgmental, shrill and crass, all of which makes Freeland's appointment entirely understandable, if ultimately ludicrous and counter-productive. The PM needs to understand that he was voted in largely to purge the mean-spirited and blinkered Harper, and now that he's gone, the same immediacy to vote Trudeau is considerably diminished, especially with the very lackadaisical approach of this government so far.

"Why should Eskom allow...?" - Because government has told it to. And because government - from the President through to Parliament - decided to make the procurement and it is a good investment for the development of the national electricity system. Government allowing a state-owned monopoly to defy formally promulgated policy and fiduciary commitments, thus blocking at least R58.8 billion of investment in waiting, is not good for our economy. Think of it as 1 - 1 = 0. The impact of procurement from the plants mentioned in this article, and even of the full REIPPPP commitment of 6 400 MW, on total Eskom costs remains fairly marginal, even if only assessing for the short term. The Department of Energy has published comprehensive accounts of who is benefiting from the new power plants (may one assume that you don't count the DoE as handlangers of foreigners?) - see for example the IPPPP Overview March 2017 available via their website But do share a wild story if you actually have one

Meh. Just wait until GTA price catches up to metro Vancouver for this scenario: Working families can no longer afford to purchase a house, or a townhouse, or a condo large enough for their family. Then they become renters and push the vacancy rate to less than 1%, so now you get bidding wars and key money for anything decent. Meanwhile Federal policy of more overseas students, more refugees, more immigrants, more provincial sponsored overseas worker programs continues. The RE industry keeps lobbying to pave over your agricultural land (or green belt). Meanwhile surveys reveal that there are tens of thousands of sold and empty housing units due to the commodification of housing and it's attractiveness as a safety deposit box for offshore money. And then you learn that in 2016, despite all the thousands more newly built condos the population of the City of Vancouver actually decreased. GTA - you are welcome to it.

Careful with the math, 54% of the actual budget goes to teachers (the budget is published online). 349.5 million is for wages, of which 47 million goes to administration (that is 1/7). 159 million on benefits with 21 million going to administration (that is 1/8th). That totals 440 million for teacher pay and benefits out of the 817 million TOTAL FUNDS budget. Sadly (if the article is correct) 100% of the cuts will go towards reducing the teacher pool...

Exactly; spell U.S. Supreme Court. Vote, Drive and Breed Drunk; "Witnesses testified that before the Valdez left port on the night of the disaster, Hazelwood downed at least five double vodkas in the waterfront bars of Valdez, an intake of about 15 ounces of 80-proof alcohol, enough “that a non-alcoholic would have passed out.” 270 F. 3d, at 1236. At 11:20 p.m., Hazelwood took active control and...radioed the Coast Guard for permission to move east across the inbound lane...Coast Guard cleared the Valdez to cross the inbound lane. The tanker accordingly steered east toward clearer waters, but the move put it in the path of an underwater reef off Bligh Island, thus requiring a turn back west into the shipping lane around Busby Light, north of the reef. Two minutes before the required turn, however, Hazelwood left the bridge and went down to his cabin in order, he said, to mix more Vodka. This decision was inexplicable... https://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/07-219.ZO.html

The only way I ever see the Earth abolishing nuclear weapons is to either A) form a single world government (which is a scary idea in of itself); B) create a new weapon that has greater utility and destructive capability rendering nuclear weapons obsolete. Even with joint monitoring and thorough protocols for their elimination, their is simply not enough trust in the world for nations to agree to such a prohibition. Even if they were abolished, the fear would remain that someone hid some away in a remote location, or that one nation is better equipped than others to produce a new nuclear weapon more quickly. And we have yet to even consider the widely supported view that nuclear weapons may have actually prevented WWIII by their mere existence. Prohibition summits are an act in futility.

There are plenty of circumstances where professional attire can be a little revealing if a person is leaning in a particular way, and creeps position themselves to catch a glimpse.

Premier David Peterson predicted carnage for Ontario's economy caused by the implementation of so-called Free Trade. A recession in 1990 coincided with massive economic structural change demanded by Free Trade, making the recession more like a depression, lasting from 1990 to 1995. Remember companies like Gillette and Caterpillar bugging out before the ink dried? The promise of Prime Minister Mulroney to have the world's finest worker adjustment programs? Chretien did not negotiated NAFTA but campaigned successfully in 1993 against NAFTA, promising to kill it without substantive change. Chretien betrayed his electoral platform. Turner correctly pointed out that giving up the economic levers results in the loss of political levers, sovereignty. Mulroney betrayed Canada's independence and sovereignty whilst temporarily saving his ethically challenged government. Chickens came home to roost with the Progressive Conservative party dying.

Listen to the interview of the Lithuanian president two weeks ago if you need a refreshing reminder of why the Baltic states look to us for leadership and support on this matter. I am not a fan of Trudeau, but I am a fan of standing up for what is right. The effect of the sanctions can be right if executed correctly.

The two sentences in this paragraph contradict each other. If it is a "cheap supermarket cake", it is about money. "But the issue was likely never money. The request to bring your own cake is rarely about lack of options, and more often because people want to have their cheap supermarket cake served in a nice room where someone else cleans up afterward."

This is precisely why we should have whacked these people months ago. And it is also why we have to do it right away, before this stuff is perfected. Blow little fatty buzz cut to Kingdom come.

First off, the CDF does NOT go hunting for errant priests. They don't have the resources. Something is brought to their attention first, it is investigated, THEN an action or actions are taken. It was even referenced in the third to last paragraph of this article. You just gave the Libs a red herring. As to the silence of the Pope, does he condone what Flannery, D'Arcy, et al advocate is does he reject it? The silence appears to be a cowardly move on the part of the pontiff. Has Flannery, in essence, self excommunicated? The order was not vacated by any silence. Let us pray for his repentance.
