That's a three percent drop from Trump receiving a 43 percent approval rating just this past Wednesday.

JH said that, "grandparents should shun their gay children." I'm sure you will agree that the Cardinal said nothing of the sort.

The protections from discrmination and hate for the non-religious or a-religious is not included in either motion! THose of use who don't believe in sky faeries should be protected from hate and discrimination as well as have the freedom to question fatih and worship questioned protected in the same way religious types are.

“one who is habitually cruel, insulting, or threatening to others who are weaker, smaller, or in some way vulnerable “. Well we do a lot more then threaten to those small countries we prey on regularly. What I specifically was referring to in my bully comment was to go from bully to occupier of Europe (Eastern or otherwise)was simply a daft comment, and I see you have provided no source to support it.
Everything you apply to Putin can easily be applied to the US( dangerous and aggressive). Re the CMC, that is a perfect example of the idiocy of going to the brink. It wasn’t facing down a bully that saved our bacon, but a Russian sub captain who kept his head and didn’t start armageddon.

There is no Islamic country in the world today where where I can see a successful progressive, tolerant nation. All I see are old men in beards issuing fatwas, and varying degrees of intolerance, violence, misogyny, and hatred.

I do not know what occurred with your mother but as I stated some calls to include a person not breathing need more personal. For example, what do you suggest we do about a 300+ patient who is on the second floor, through snow, plus all the gear. If you live in Anchorage you did not get a non AFD ambulance if you don't live in Anchorage then I am not sure why you are concerned. 8 hour shifts? Do you know how many more people they would have to hire for 8 hour shifts? No EMS service any where works 8 hour shifts. | 4 | How many are licensed EMTs out of all AFD Employees? My recollection is there were a lot of AFD employees who were not licensed EMTs. There were also quite a few who were not physically fit enough to be FFs, and thus hurt themselves doing routine training. Why can't a 2-person ambulance handle a call like that? I had 2 person non-AFD ambulances come to my home more than once for my mother & they did just fine. I stand by my position that if the majority of calls are for medical emergencies, then that requires EMTS, not FFs & that there's no more "bang for the buck" for tax payers under the current configuration. That was originally the thinking but it hasn't panned out. For example, regular EMTs could work regular 5 day week, 8 hour shifts. FFS on the other hand, are treated like slope workers in terms of compensation $ other benefits, especially any accidents that happen " at work" including stubbing your toe in the middle of the night.

Bill isn't my hero but he was a pretty good president with a good record of achievement and the last decent economy except for the last couple of years under Obama. Also Clinton had a good civil rights record. As far as his philandering, I guess you are a church lady. That's between Bill and his family, but it didn't hurt the nation, Newt Gingrich's impeachment did. Except that Newt lost his job and now runs errands for the RNC, while Bill shot up in the polls. Most people still like him, and he's made a lot of money, all legally. Why be a sorehead, Motley? Did you lose out? I didn't, I made money.
Now we have a crazy man as president who is ignorant and already in deep trouble on several fronts. More people are speculating on his impeachment. I think something will come out that's incriminating at some time. In the mean time, Trump can't damage this nation beyond repair. The damage he is already doing can be reversed. Trump is not popular. | 10 | The $90,00 fine was levied not by the House of Representatives but by Federal District Judge Susan Webber Wright in the Paula Jones lawsuit in Arkansas.
And that was after she had ruled that Paula Jones hadn't proven her case. Slick Willy paid $850,000 for Paula Jones to go away, anyway.
"Wright then referred Clinton's conduct to the Arkansas Bar Association for disciplinary action, and on January 19, 2001, the day before Clinton left the office of president, he entered into an agreement with the Arkansas Bar and Independent Counsel Robert Ray under which Clinton was stripped of his license to practice law in Arkansas." Based on that, he was subsequently disbarred under the rule by the US Supreme Court.

Once again, at the people's expense. | 4 | I agree with Mr. Lundy’s points, but I would add that Trump’s immigration failures presents opportunities for economic growth in Canada. As high-skilled immigrant workers are denied entry into the U.S., Canada should open its doors. Many U.S. high-tech companies have Canadian subsidiaries that could grow if workers are redirected north of the boarder. I recommend economic development officials at the local, provincial and federal level begin the task of wooing these companies.

Those exist on both sides. | 4 | skyblue has been sounding this note of 'blame the government for taking in refugees' for a few days now.

Legally limiting free speech is already the option in use. It's been that way under Western law for at least 500 years.
However, no further limitations are possible from a non-binding motion. Your hysteria over the issue is misplaced. | 4 | Not about religion. Wanting to change laws is concerning because it's going too far, there are already laws in place, M-103 wants to look at laws, the study is a precursor. Limiting free speech is not an option. Some leadership and advocacy actors for insular groups, push for their own interests, at the expense of society, it's abuse against Canadian society. Canadians are welcoming to different groups, but there are groups that are less reciprocal towards society. Some organizations and thinking are orientated to benefits for themselves, not about greater society, if members are insular some may not even realize to what extent. Fear is one of many emotions, just because someone guesses someone else emotions, doesn't mean they are right, or they understand causes and results in any situation.

Trump can't happen in Canada? It already happened in the 1930s. We whitewash the time when the KKK had branches in cities & town across Canada. You will have to do a bit of research to find references to this period but the references can be found. Very shocking period.
We don't like to talk about not allowing Jews to enter Canada to escape Hitler. Read the book "None is Too Many" to describe our immigration policy during that period.
Go to Wikipedia and read about the university thesis written by TC Douglas. The father of Medicare, former leader of the federal NDP, former NDP premier, the greatest Canadian according to the CBC.

That should tell you the direction this country is headed if these simple motions are met with spin and politicking. Looking at this as a secular should not bring you to a different opinion. If anything is in danger of suppressing free speech, it can be brought to the Supreme Court. We have a Constitution for a reason.
