Step right up! Tell us about your race and sex and we'll see how much we can squeeze out of the white guys for you.

It is not that I don't get the argument. But did the government at the time do this to try and stamp out Indigenous culture? Or did they do it because the kids were living in households that were not meeting an acceptable standard of care. Did they purposefully not put the children with Indigenous families or did they simply not have enough Indigenous families to adopt the children? How many Indigenous families are currently on the waiting list to adopt children? How many Indigenous kids are currently in the Child Welfare system? What about Caucasian kids in mixed race homes, or children adopted from 3rd world countries. Do we owe them to? I just feel like anything you attach the word Native, Aboriginal, or Indigenous to these days is a recipe for lawyers to rape the Canadian taxpayer. I also don't think the endless run of payouts is doing anything to help the image of Indigenous people to the average Canadian taxpayer. I just realized, I would be Irish except for the English, pay me.

agree...disgusting. Trump base dude.

It's Arkansas so what do you expect. They're in the same category as Mississippi, Alabama, etc. which are the low-life centers of the US. If they can vote to send "Judge" Moore to Washington, they are capable of just about anything. So much for cleaning the swamp.

Interesting...and all the while raising and caring for you unthankful one.

Mark are you sure it's today's generation that feels entitled? Our parents and grandparents generation -destroyed the environment that we need to clean up -accumulated billions in national debt that we have to pay off -criticize the social net while benefiting from a healthcare system we pay for and living off pension plans that we will never see - owned houses without having to go to college/university for 4+ Years Oh and raised us -- teaching and helping us learn to grow. Check the mirror Mark. Your generation is the first in history not to leave a better world got its kids. We accept your apology because we realize you simply didn't know any better. But don't criticize us for worrying about how we are going to clean up your mess. Just thank us every time your pension cheque arrives or you receive your free medical care while retiring in Florida on our dime.

You know nothing about firearms if your gonna carry you carry the right piece with the right accessories. Its obvious if you know anything about it.

Rokos Basilisk, You need to go back and read what you originally wrote. You didn't say that only those with rifles should have shot back. You didn't say that only those with laser sights should have shot back. You said, "Gotta wonder why the carrying people in the crowd didn't open up on the perp. Couple of thousand people giving suppressing fire into the Mandalay would have ended the whole thing in a few minutes." That would have resulted in an even worse tragedy.

Thank you! Pretty quick search to determine the correct data

You're entitled to your opinion, but not your own facts, Mr. Taylor. Firearms account for far more than half of US homicides. Knives and beating typically are the weapon for less than a third, according to the CDC. https://www.infoplease.com/us/crime/murder-victims-weapons-used https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/homicide.htm

I've got mixed feelings about their pitching period, right now, truthfully

I'm torn if I would want him to return...as great as he was early, I just got the sense he lost it regardless of what the stats say for September. He often had a plenty of traffic and rarely a clean inning during the month. For 15 million, its a tough gamble...No way would I do a Melancon type of contract considering we still need to re-sign Blackmon and Arenado shortly. The issue then becomes who would be the closer if he is not here. Possibly bring back Neschek since he rarely allows a walk and had a sub 2.00 ERA is an option. I hope they can get Estevez right for the role as he looks the part but right now his control issues would eliminate any consideration. Since they are losing McGee as well, there will be a bunch of new faces in the pen.

Of course, Mr Pitts made no mention of country music, nor did he say anything that would marginalize any of the victims. James just doesn't like Leonard Pitts. Pretty much the same reason Trump doesn't like President Obama. Pitts is a successful articulate black man. James and Trump see that as a threat. They're both insecure.

We know how you feel about people who listen to country music Mr. Pitts. You could have taken the week off.

What is amazing about several comments is the lack of information and understanding of a few simple facts related to crude oil quality and its processing. The quality i.e composition of crude oils vary and is a significant factor in the economics of crude purchasing and refining.The heavy oil produced in Western Canada contains about 35% material that must be processed in a residue processing unit such as a Coker or Residue Processing unit . The refining capacity in Eastern Canada is about 1.1 million barrels with only about 25000 barrels of Coking/residue processing capacity in Ontario vs about 350,000 barrels in the 1.1 million barrels from the Energy East. Significant capital expenditure will be required by the existing refiners to increase processing of Canadian bitumen derived crude so impact of Energy East pipeline on reducing crude imports will be very limited.

Basis economics did kill the project, but not in the way the author implies. Both Enbridge and TRP both see that Canada is a poor place to invest with the current regulatory regime. It cost Enbridge over $500 MM to apply for a pipeline that was rejected because "the Great Bear Rain Forest is no place for a pipeline" while Kinder Morgan's was approved (I guess Jasper National Park is just fine for a pipeline). TRP and ENB will happily spend their capital in the US where they have a defined approach to regulatory hearings (with the exception of Keystone XL). Say bye to more jobs, more tax revenue and more investment. Say hi to having the country run by the extreme 10% that want no development ever.

Yeah... "holding out for a fair wage" as in playing video games in momma's basement. All self-made, successful people who make above a fair wage today had to start some where... some times it takes a kick in the backside (a.k.a. hard work).

I think you miss the point. Americans won't build someone else's empire for peanuts and a kick in the backside. They're holding out for a fair wage.

Math and facts are a stranger to many folks. 68,000,000/17,000,000=4 Convert the spending power of 4 1840 dollars to 2009 dollars and its value would be 85 dollars. So what is your point with your snarky response?

in 1840 total government spending was 68 million dollars. Resident population was 17 million. Source: US Census. Your 'source' ? Or did you learn that at Glenn Beck's University, ...maybe Trump University.

Correction: They WERE a novelty, until October 1st. Now they're the difference between dozens of casualties and hundreds of them.

These accessories do not make a rifle "fully automatic." You still have to pull the trigger each time you want to fire the rifle. Bump stocks just let you do it very, very quickly. They are a novelty--the equivalent of putting a 10" lift on your off road vehicle. No off road vehicle needs that lift and it actually makes the vehicle less stable, just as bump stocks make a rifle less accurate. Both are more for ego stroking and displays of pseudo manliness at either the range or the 4x4 club. And again, fully automatic rifles are military grade weapons. They are illegal for civilians. From all accounts I've read, Paddock did not use fully automatic rifles.

You touched upon something interesting about the USA I read awhile ago.. I will not use "left" and "right" for a collection of reasons.. The "conservative" USA feels it has been swamped, and left being, powerless. Why? The liberal way of thinking controls entertainment, education,and "popular" culture.. The "liberal" USA feels it has been swamped, and left behind. Why? They control less and less of the political sphere, government at all levels, etc.. Both are true, and quite possibly the real start of the USA splitting into 2, or 3 future states. (in case you get to too smug, in Canada the Constitution = Gun control in the USA - "now is not the right time to talk about it"...With a rigid constitution, that will not allow change, how long do you think a country that has 4 provinces that are the size of small cities, be on the same footing as the growing provinces, hold together? the difference between Ont. and P.E.I. is 140x, which is nearly twice the dif of Cal, and Wy - 80x)

Mr Doyle thinks it’s America falling apart when it’s more like the American Left having a conniption fit over Donald Trump and the fact that they have little to no actual power outside academia and the media. All they can do at this point is disrupt. Oh, and exactly no one outside the media bubble thinks a late night talk show host is the ‘conscience of America.’ Jeez...

2010. The Obama Administration. Bump Stocks legalized. - The single greatest advancement in the killing power of civilian-owned weapons occurred during and with the approval of the Obama Administration. - The irony.

If the NRA dares to make one single move to make this country safer and to reduce intentional gun deaths at the hands of a lunatic who has amassed an aresnal of tactical, military style weaponry then I’m burning my card. I won’t tolerate no do-gooder carpet bagging lefty socialists taking away my sacred, holy, constitutionally protected right to prevent the government from quartering troops in my house. I’m serious now. No troops in my house. If I want to amass 50 thousand rounds of teflon coated hollow points and a couple of bump stocks before I get my GED then it’s my right given by God himself. Because constitution. Jesus saves too.

Yet again, read my first post: "The DPRK wants revenge for US bombing in Korea." "tl;dr" means what? You do not deny that Kim is a lunatic fascist with H-bombs and ICBMs who believes that nuclear war with the US is imminent and inevitable; he also believes that NK will not only survive this war, but that NK will win it. Nevertheless, quite irrationally, you continue with your totally false belief that NK is not a threat to the US. Elsewhere on this thread I have cited N. Kristof's excellent NYT' piece "Inside North Korea and Feeling the Drums of War"; I also provided numerous examples from it. You need to read Kristof's article. You would also learn from reading Evan Osnos' "The Risk of Nuclear War with North Korea" in 'The New Yorker.' Before attempting to read these articles about the North Korean Missile Crisis you should first take a course in reading and writing. Right now you cannot even read and understand posts on this thread, much less write clearly.

I would suggest you learn the history of why both N. Korea and Iran both hate and fear us. That might give you a little bit of a clue, so far all you have is an irrational fear. The tl;dr of this is we overthrew the elected leader of Iran and put the Shah in power, and we dropped more bombs on N. Korea than we dropped on Germany during WWII. I'll leave you to the history reading for the rest, but I gave you the short story.

I agree that the Ontario Queens Park Liberals have neither distanced nor redeemed themselves from the crass, costly and incompetent opportunism of the McGuinty era. That has disappointed me. But I'm not yet willing to put the Conservatives or the NDP in charge. We need a Bill Davis of the left or right to restore some discipline to the governance of this province.

I see this current Liberal government in Ontario as corrupt and untrustworthy. If I put myself in their shoes, quite honestly I doubt that I'd be able to look at myself in the mirror. I'm sorry if that sounds harsh. Normally I'm not known as a harsh individual, but the level of scandals, deceit, mismanagement and corruption from the Wynne government is something that makes me sick to my stomach, and I can't wait to see her government shown to the door.

It takes a special level of dumb to celebrate the potential downfall of our aerospace industry and the consequent layoffs in Quebec at the hands of another country. You do realize this will lead to even more "pork barreling" in the form of larger equalization payments and unemployment cheques, right? These blatantly unfair tariffs will be applied to more and more imports, hurting Canadians from coast to coast. We may be witnessing the beginning of a trade war, it's good for no one.

As a western Canadian, I'm so tired of being pork barreled by Ottawa/Quebec I'm happy to see Trump sticking it to them! Go Trump go!!!

And even with knowing the schedule and using the app (for low income elderly people that don't use a cell phone to begin with) the bus can still be running late, or cancelled, or stuck in traffic, etc. Just because something is "supposed to be" does not mean it is that way every single time.

If you choose not to use the schedule or use the App that's on you. Not a DTS employee just someone who uses whats available to make my life easier instead of standing around and complaining about stuff. Feel sorry for folks like you.

Yes, I would. Mother Mary was quoted as saying very little, but what she DID say has been ringing down through the ages inspiring hearts and minds in every corner of the earth. Women who have traditionally been the heart of the home, often have more time to meditate on the things of God as they go about their daily work. Their strong emotional ties to the needs of their children give them a perspective that men would love to have, but, due to their own difficult commitments, sadly miss.

Someone, tell me how a woman deacon's homily would differ from a male deacon's homily. What would she say that these men deacons are not saying? That seems to be the argument of this piece -- that women deacons have something to say during homilies that men either can't or won't say. Anyone pro-women deacons wish to offer up an example?

Justin says yes to Boeing and krickets on Energy East. One cost tax payers indefinitely and he other generates thousands of good paying jobs. Truly the Liberals are dead in the west for 40 more years !!! If junior can't build one stinking pipeline what is the point of having a lefty government ? Anybody can spend and borrow to feed the status quo and its useless ilk.

As Forbes magazine has reported Boeing has received $14 billion in subsidies and did not bid on the Delta order as they do not have a comparable plane to the C100 Series.How does Boeing claim injury if it does not have a comparable aircraft? From the European carriers that are flying the C100 the performance data is above spec and the plane uses 20% less fuel .Boeing must feel that competitive threat

You got his name wrong. His name was *Rob* Ford. Perhaps you were thinking of someone else.

Bob Ford was sooo much better than any of the present council members and present mayor. He understood that city dollars spent came from taxpayers and he controlled spending, something no government, at any level, understands or worries about. The city should have named the stadium after Ford

I think the issue with the death penalty is not what it says about the bad guy. Its what it says about the rest of us!!! No one is debating that the criminals are total scumbags! The question about the death penalty is why YOU think YOU can kill someone....with impunity! (I'm not impugning YOU personally!!) I would also remind people that Pat Robertson, the ultra right wing "christian" preacher who runs the 700 Club stated that he believes we should have the death penalty for women who have an abortion! The world is just plagued with psychopaths who like to portray themselves as "good" people! And perhaps we should remember back to the middle ages and even in the early days of America, when "Christians" used to burn people at the stake......because they objected to witchcraft!

We obviously don't use the death penalty enough as too many of those who deserve it are let out and kill again.

"Do you not see the difference." . In both cases you a paying for a service, whether paid for through taxes, or through insurance premia. . Effectively, the insurance company is merely playing the role of government, and you are replacing the word "tax" with "insurance premium". . But somehow, you like paying a private sector tax, but detest paying a public sector tax for exactly the same good or service. . This, by the way, is precisely why the US pays 17% of GDP for health care, and the rest of the rich world pays typically 7% - 9%. . ... because paying 17% in private sector insurance-premium-taxes-by-any-other-name fees is capitalism (good), but paying 9% through taxes is "godless socialism" (bad). LOL. . Again: Potash sells for exactly the same price whether it is produced by a crown corporation of a private sector company. The difference is sophistry. . So, no, I don't see the difference - because, in terms of basic economic principles, there isn't any difference.

re-Consider: Dentist - private sector, provides service, earns income, pays taxes. how does the dentist get payed? buy your : insurance, company benefit or out of pocket.You know exactly how much that visit costs you. Doctor - public sector, provides service, earns income, pays taxes. how does the doctor get payed? well you walk out the door and a bill for services is rendered to the provinces health ministry.You have no idea how much that visit costs the province. Do you not see the difference? The CRA job is to only collect taxes,the source is irrelevant , and turn them over to the government.

No. Not so much. . If government always destroyed value, as you suggest, we would all still be on water wells and septic tanks, and Hoover would have been the greatest president of all time. . Under classic liberal economic theory, governments serve two functions: . 1. To address market failure; and 2. To solve collective action problems. . Competition law is a classic example of intervention to address market failure. . The army; the police; water, sewer, and power; roads; schools; etc., etc., are classic examples of government intervention to solve collective action problems. . In both cases the role of government yields a more efficient result than markets alone would do. . The hypothesis that "big governments paralyze economic growth" is right-wing ideological twaddle. . Kansas proved starkly otherwise, as did Hoover and Bennett in the 30's. As did FDR and C.D. Howe, conversely, by expansionary policies to fight the war. . Dumb governments paralyze economic growth.

You're embarrassing yourself. Government destroys value: Trudeau, Butts, Wynne, Morneau, McKenna, Horgan, Notley, Coderre - Canada's political class is increasingly represented by short-sighted "progressives" who reek of unearned entitlement and have an unparalleled ability to spend other people's money while making it harder for the private sector to create wealth necessary to service those bloated public sector liabilities. It's not rocket appliances, big governments paralyze economic growth. Just make sure to speak clearly into the microphone if the Liberal organizers ever give you break from licking stamps during the next election campaign. Take a long hard look at Trudeau's base...

If that was truly to happen then, "(1) Gross Domestic Product, investment spending, capacity utilization, household income, business profits, and inflation will fall, (2) while bankruptcies and the unemployment rate will rise." Morneau along with Butts is already working on part (1) and Wynne would handle part (2).

If the provincial polls look bleak, don't count out Ms Wynne parachuting up a level of politics within the next 3-4 months.

Just curious Wizard were you critical of all the anit Obama letters when Obama was president or do you have a double standard? Unlike Obama the Donald deserves all the criticism he is getting and it will only get worse. The clown in chief is a joke but sadly it is on all the so called conservatives who thought they were voting for someone to drain the swamp and not profit from their service or live high on the hog just because they are part of the swamp. I wonder why the Donald is not draining the swamp? Really never expected him to but his philosophy of just let it rip is amazing. i suspect the Donald will soon be gone as the inestigations are continuing to drip...drip...drip... I love it though. Sure is a lot more fun than professional wrestling. lol

Today is a payday of positive 'Letters To The Editor'! It sure feels good to read, 'Anti-Trump Cartoon Show paper's Bias', by Betty "B.J." Dyhr, ' Space Telescope Better Than TMT, by Gordon Matsuda and the wonderful Margot Schrine's "Cataluna's Mom A Special Woman". The latter will someday find a positive legacy of herself from her children. Like Ms Dyhr's letter of Trump, we can do without constant negativity of the current President. Gordon Matsuda, thank you for an excellent point of view why a telescope on Mauna Kea may not be a good idea. Mahalo to all of you for making my day. Have a wonderful week-end!

Well I thought since I said your comments to motley and that it was RG staff along with your screen name in comments make it clear I was referring to your conclusions in your civil comments not the article. If not personal opinion your waste at local and the state can do a better job then federal if these plus several other of your claims in or statements you gave credit to no one else so I simply wondered are these comments such as aca more generous, states have less and waste will? Those comments are they fact? Fact based on what or just personal opinion or personal conclusions or are these comments as a RG staff member and that is the position of the rg. That's all Nothing about your article 2 of you so far have not paid attention.

Where is the opinion, Phil? I was trying to provide context and to explain the thinking behind the way the ACA policy was established. Not passing a value judgement on it.

Doug Lippay said: "What about Canadians owning property in other countries? You would think that other jurisdictions might retaliate?" 1) The biggest target of such changes is China, and I can't buy property there. 2) Far more importantly, you should ask Canadians under 40 if they care about being unable to buy property in other countries. I'd bet a vast majority would be just fine with "retaliation" as they struggle to find shelter in their hometowns due to a haywire market that has been entirely engineered by government policies.

When you're speaking of public colleges and universities, there's not supposed to be such a thing as a conservative or liberal campus.

Is this debate over a rare disruption to a controversial conservative speaker on a liberal campus by extremists, or a systemic problem across the nation? Are conservative campuses inviting controversial liberal speakers at all, do we have reciprocity of such speakers in politically oppposite locations? Hopefully, we can allow people to speak without such hostilities as seen at Berkeley. I always enjoy hearing the opposition of my ideologies, because I am only a fool to never contest my ideas.

"When my family and relatives came to Hawaii, we did not have a “slice of paradise”. Nothing was given to us. We had to work for it. " "In my circle, when a family member is in need, we take them in and help them get back on their feet." Some of us, including yours truly, are not as fortunate as you, as we do not have family or relatives who will bail us out if we fall on difficult financial times. Most people I know, live in multigenerational households, many times consisting of even three or four generations. Perhaps a law should be passed to make it mandatory for immediate family members of homeless individuals to take them in and help them get back on their feet.

Hahaha... you and Boots are in concert today. Income inequality is used so much to excuse people who made bad choices in their lives... Did you survey the people of Hawaii on how they attained their “slice of paradise”... and how the homeless became to be where they are? When my family and relatives came to Hawaii, we did not have a “slice of paradise”. Nothing was given to us. We had to work for it. Unlike you and Boots, it was “inherited” or bought “when it was relatively affordable...” It must be nice to be able to afford the “few hundred dollars “ of property tax increases... Are you guys member Hollywood by any chance...? And how much do you give of your income to help those in need? In my circle, when a family member is in need, we take them in and help them get back on their feet. What would you do? You’re so high and mighty... you ought to have an answer for that, Comrades...

Also, you are just looking at the negative aspects of what happened with these incidents. What about the friendships being forged? What about the assistance being given? What about the love and caring being shown? What about the new rules and safety practices? There is a lot of GOOD coming out of these incidents as well as bad. So think about that as well. Would some of these GOOD things have happened without the bad? Jesus also loves you.

Yes, He loves the Puerto Ricans. Now, I have a question for you. What would have happened to those people if they had not been hit with the particular hurricane? Would it have been better or worse? Care to explain how you can know what the future would have held? Could the future have been worse? Yours is a FAQ.

It's still communism for both countries, no matter who the head guy is or whether anyone likes him. We are still capitalist and a representative republic, no matter who the president may be from time to time. Hitler was a fascist and Marx/Stalin/Lenin were communists, as is Kim. The two governments and systems were mortal enemies. If you called Kim a fascist to his face, you'd be killed. You have noted differences, which means you're getting there. Keep studying. You'll arrive at the facts some day. The UN lists 3 communist nations: North Korea, Cuba, and Vietnam.

Stalin did not believe that he was divinely ordained, nor did he believe that his family automatically had to succeed him as head of the USSR. That is one distinction between Stalinism and the Kim Dynasty of eternal living gods. Another is that Stalin was not a fascist. Stalin did not promise to use military force to achieve his political objectives. The Kim Dynasty has promised to use their thermonuclear capability so that they can rule all of Korea by first destroying the US. Stalin had his purges, from his officer corps to Ukrainian peasantry, but even his gulags were not genocidal crematoriums similar to Auschwitz or Buchenwald. Kim's concentration camps are similar to Hitler's. See the UN OHCHR referenced above. In Kim's camp's those who are systematically tortured, starved, worked to death or shot or hanged are burned so that phosphate from their corpses can be used for fertilizer. Stalin's gulags were more work camps, than extermination camps like Hitler's/Kim's.

The time has come -- it's long overdue -- but it's not going to happen any time soon. We WILL have women deacons and women priests -- just not any time soon. It's going to be AT LEAST another couple of generations for women deacons. And that's assuming we don't get a Pope (the next pope) who is very conservative. A very conservative Pope could set us back another 50-100 years. Sigh.

Enough from amateur theologians, historians, and moralists! Stop talking and act. There are many statements from the Church about the dignity and value of women. However, there is always a "but", always stopping before admitting the equality of women. There is no such thing as almost equal. The time has come to end an idle discussion and ordain female deacons, maybe someday female priests. Few Catholics took JPII seriously when he said women priests were impossible and there could be no discussion. Anti-intellectual at best. If a proposition is true, it will continue to be true, no matter how much discussion. Why be afraid?

Should I suggest that misrepresenting M103 is somehow indicative of the mentality of the Conservatives, WP? Or maybe just of the usual reactionaries on here? And here I was hoping that you were better than such ridiculous partisan comments.

It's indicative of the mentality of the Liberals.

But if one DOES question Islamic practice in Muslim countries, as a group of women in Egypt recently discovered, one's life is usually threatened. I find it hard to believe that much honest debate can take place in Muslim countries for that reason. In Islam's case, religion and culture have been conflated, and the only way to deal with it is to clearly separate "church and state" by having only secular run societies.

"the Heritage Committee should devise a precise definition. Questions and criticism about Islam are not Islamophobia. In fact, Muslims themselves engage in robust debates about modernity and Islamic practice. ... Are they Islamophobic? Of course not. They are entitled to their opinion. Such a critical view is understandable, given discriminatory gender practices in some Muslim cultures. Furthermore, subordination of women is often justified by theology. We need to be able to have frank discussions without the fear of being branded an "Islamophobe." A balance must be found between protection of free speech and protection from bigotry and hatred." Well said, Ms. Khan. Now if only our government (and the Globe censors) agreed with that sensible view.

Geez, and we are created *good* Because of that we still give and can be generous We are also graced And we develop virtues, etc. Of course we have changed. Your summation repeats an early church heresy - Gnosticism and its brother, Manicheism. Briefly - "Contrary to a message of salvation through Christ alone (Acts 4:12), the Gnostic Jesus brings a message of self-redemption. Man only needs to examine his inner “spark” to find the knowledge needed to free himself from his material body and reach God. This alleged purity of heart is the exact opposite of what is stated in Jeremiah 17:9: “The heart is more deceitful than all else and is desperately sick; who can understand it?” Christianity and Gnosticism are mutually exclusive; however, it is easy for a Gnostic mindset to seep into our own thinking if we’re not careful (1 Peter 5:8). The Gnostic is pursuing goodness, but, instead of seeking to be regenerated by Christ, he grabs hold of a man-centered purpose for living

We haven't changed. We're still selfish We're still prone to nurse resentment We still sin We still need grace We're still prone to develop vices unless we apply opposing forces...e.g., graces, the Sacrarments, human effort, practice, beginning again We haven't changed an iota.

Yup, too bad your such a screaming jerk. Using my children in a post about sexual activities in the WH did it for me. I'd love to meet you and deliver a fathers proper response that would shut down your bulls**t followed by your chicken sh**t, making you an effing piece of sh**t. So flag me you pathetic scum.

Let's not forget what happened to the owner of a training facility in Indianapolis who also bred German Shepherds. Indianapolis Animal Care and Control seized 38 dogs from his property and charged him with all sorts of neglect. Court forced him to pay almost $5000 a month to 'take care of them' for over two years. In that time, IACC managed to kill a perfectly healthy adult dog by neglecting a bite wound she received while IACC staff forced her to do a temperament test with another large dog that attacked her, killed an entire litter of puppies by deciding to temperament test the mother while she was in active labor and, according to employees, kept them locked up in an unheated/un-cooled garage the entire time they had them. Court eventually found that the owner had NOT neglected them in any way and returned all of the remaining dogs to him as well as ordering the IACC to return the money he'd paid them for their supposed care.

The KNEW the dogs belonged to other people and chose mutilate them, anyway. The Denver Shelter didn't care that the dogs' microchips showed their real owners and opted to sell them anyway. Louisville had a similar case in Federal court where they seized a couple's bulldogs, spayed/neutered them and sold them. They had to pay restitution for the loss of the dogs, the puppies they stole and sold, and a huge amount in damages for lack of due process. I hope the Denver shelter has to pay through the nose for their illegal actions.

As a non-sacramental position, perhaps, but certainly not as a vanguard for future sacramental ordination and then a push for women priests. Indeed, the political agenda of liberals makes it more unlikely the Church will concede ground. Besides, there's actually no need for the reintroduction of such a lay ministry for women.

Part 2 Also scripture scholars postulate, I think, that the evangelists have Jesus pick 12 men as the leaders of the Jesus-cult because the Jewish-cult is founded on 12 men as the founders of the 12 tribes. The maleness of the apostles, in other words, looks backwards not forwards. IMHO, that scholarly argument is not going to overthrow the male apostles argument in the mind of conservatives; but if it can even be definitively proved that women did presides at the Eucharist in the early Church, then conservative theologians will instantly grasp the male apostles argument is dead. A parallel argument is that women have without doubt been deacons in the past, and therefore they can receive the Sacrament of Holy Orders, and here is only one sacrament received by bishops, priests, and deacons. Therefore conservative hierarchs are dead set against female deacons, regardless of the historical evidence. Thus the extreme importance that women deacons are accepted by the commission.

Yes, the degree of cynicism, scorn and bottomless negativity by commenters is astounding. In fact, it is frightening. The columnist, marking an historic holiday for giving thanks, writes an uplifting piece expressing humility and gratitude to the people she has encountered doing her job. The response: bitterness, derision, mockery. I'm just glad we have very strict gun laws in this country. Scary people out there.

Some of the negative comments here are astounding. Sad, sad people.... Thank you Ms Renzitti. People in several professions appreciate and are humbled by the confidences that are shared with them.

Delayed reactions seem to be Mika's thing. And, if Mika had read the papers yesterday, she would have known that Harvey Weinstein has already been suspended. It's very hollow how Mika expresses her opinions, after the fact. Sort of like how Mika bantered and chuckled vacuously with Trump for over a year, before she finally started to criticize her pal of over a decade.

Shameless gerrymandering has given Republicans the thoroughly crazy idea they are a majority party. If SCOTUS fixes that, things will change. Gerrymandering hasn't been quite the godsend it was supposed to be, anyway. It has delivered a Repug congress made of people who all ran as Repugs, but don't really agree on core issues. It's a mess.

"While the Colorado candidates have a range of values, they all generally want to preserve hallmarks of Obama’s presidency — such as protecting young immigrants brought to the U.S. illegally as children, expanding voter rights and making health care more available." ................. Those are the Democrats priorities? Illegals, pushing for ineligible votes and taking money from the middle-class to pay for someone else's health insurance? I'd say add gun control to your agenda (please!), and you'll never win elections for years to come.

"I don't believe it's the NRA's problem to solve mass shootings." Then what the hell are they good for? When I was a kid (that was back when the NRA was still an advocate for the sportsman and before they became a shill for gun manufacturers) one of the NRA's primary tenets was to promote and facilitate gun safety, and I think we can all agree that mass shootings are about as unsafe as you can get with a gun. If the NRA was really concerned about gun safety, wouldn't you think that they would advocate AGAINST guns that would enable one person to kill and/or seriously injure more than 500 people in less than 10 or 15 minutes? Say YES. Obviously, the NRA is not concerned about gun safety nor about you or me nor about the sanctity of the 2nd Amendment. All they care about is $$$$$$! Best, RTD

The public has 300 million guns, and about 1 out of 3 Americans own guns. I don't believe it's the NRA's problem to solve mass shootings.

tRump was running for president at the time the tapes were released. These tRump apologists are trying to obfuscate the problem by trying to say since he wasn't a political figure at the time they happened or he said it, it doesn't count? LOL. That's the most ridiculous thing I ever heard. Do you actually think that tRump's character changed to a saint after the election? No wonder he believes he can shoot someone on 5th avenue and no one would care. "Let his wife address it-it involves only her." Which wife? He's cheated on all three. Melania was pregnant at the time he was forcing his lips on others. It isn't just locker talk. It's talk in the open public domain that demonstrates not just his own behavior, but the brazen disgust and disrespect he feels for women in general. And he doesn't even have any remorse or shame. He thinks he can do what he wants, and by your own morally deficient standard, he can. Face it, you can't get away with defending and excusing tRump.

Regarding this " Then Juanita Broaddrick and Paula Jones, et al, are none of your business, either. Face it, you can't get away with defending and excusing tRump." The difference is, Juanita Broaddrick and Paula Jones all occurred with a political figure. Bill Clinton. A lawmaker. Who could be blackmailed. Trump and guy locker room talk is neither.

Interesting that you know more about these negotiations than even the reporters who write the stories.

Neither a Liberal Party supporter nor besotted by Justin Trudeau as PM, I do, however, believe that the Liberals, the senior public service team and Trudeau have conducted the Trump Administration & both Mexico & the US government & private sectors NAFTA renegotiations very well. Essentially they have remained focused, realistic & steadfast when dealing with the Trump personality wild-card factor; refusing to give way on core issues or reciprocate provocations & threats from Trump, on the one hand, while remaining open, constructive & civil as signs that Canada remains open to truly constructive proposals for NAFTA reform. As the article suggests, now is the time for focussed one-on-one discussion between Trudeau & Trump; The PM's goal being to dispell any Trump illusions that Canada can be provoked or cowed into making a misstep at this critical juncture in NAFTA renegotiations

Boots, please stop with the "more government" mantra. I agree both parties support big government (or else they'll be ostracized), but clearly the Democrats are for larger and larger government, welfare, single payer government run healthcare, food stamps, on and on. So please stop the bizarro world statements where everything is opposite of what you claim. Other than that, have a good evening.

Other countries, from Asia to Europe, have noticed a decline in births in recent years. They have also noticed the negative domino-effect because of the lack of kids and smaller families. Seems to me, no matter where you are in the world, there is a stress because of the amount of people, or lack of people. And that stress never goes away.

This is the elephant in the room: too many people. People who need to eat. People who demand energy for transportation, homes, and jobs. Only one country has tried to control their population explosion and they have been chided for their efforts - China. Until we take serious efforts to control our growth we will not find answers to these enviornmental problems, anthropomorphic climate change included.

So you see that Broaddrick signed an affidavit saying rumors of sexual harassment by Clinton toward her were untrue. Then she signed a different one for Starr while under duress. Why should anyone, Spiller or otherwise, believe Broaddrick after that?

Juanita Broaddrick was trashed by the Clinton’s and the feminist of the day sheepishly watched. Kathy Spiller can remember a Republican Judge Being accused of crude language by Anita Hill but conveniently forgets an allegation of rape from Juanita Broaddrick by a Democrat State Attorney General. Perhaps one day Ms Spiller will have the courage to take on a powerful Democratic Former President. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juanita_Broaddrick

Yes, that is my point. The “soft sounding” parts of scripture describe love, which can be filled with great hardships. Marriage is a place where people commit to suffering with Jesus for the sake of another person. It may sound soft, because its purpose is wonderful, an act of love and being loved. But hopefully every Christian knows love has many crosses that accompany the grace. But why are you saying this as if you disagree with me? Remarried people can have marriages that reflect love brightly, bearing burdens that unmarried people would not consider. Bearing them happily because the blessings are so much greater than pain of the cross. Assuming the duties of marriage and children is so much better than staying alone, shaken by the pain of the first marriage and afraid to try again. Neiher is an easy path, but loving seems like the better choice.

All good expressions of love, to be sure, and observed more in the breach than the observance. Real love is costly, take a look at the Crucifix. Love is the happy Cross! Do we often ask Jesus to 'move over' and give me some space up there? Do we do it daily?

Did Charles make that claim? I think you're manufacturing again. Show us where he said all that.

Sorry to have to tell you CS, but your post from start to finish is made up of wildly untrue statements, regarding science and our economy, which Obama rescued with minimal help from Congress and major help from the Federal Reserve banks and their leadership. Also, Charles Dalton's theory that the bloody Haitian slave revolt, a successful one, influenced Southern state slaveholders to demand armed state militias is absolutely supportable by history.

Which is sad because CU is in the PAC12. They need to win THOSE games. They would be a pretty decent team in the MWC. Mid tier.

The Buffs largely underperformed tonight, especially on defense. The rise, it appears, was a one-year thing. The only team CU can beat on a consistent basis is CSU.

Columbus didnt discover America , the indigenous did and he was a murderer , rapist and worse and only celebrated by red neck low life scum

Nothing like watching the liberal community spin themselves stupid. Put aside the fact south of the border celebrates Columbus, and lets examine the morality of the indigenous people, IP, Columbus discovered. While IP conducted human sacrifice on a large scale, cannibalism, and the like, IP like my Chickasaw ancestors were slave owners, while others were warmongers who plundered, pillaged, and raped other IP at will.

The whole rest of the world exists outside Canada. Trump, sadly, is real and is causing grief for Canada and the ROW. It is important that we know what is going on outside our goldfish bowl.

This is a new low for even the Globe. Surely you could write about one of our many Canadian issues. Your continued hissy fit about President Trump is getting long in the tooth. Most people have moved on.

"Trump's own wife is a [*LEGAL*] immigrant." - Correct. And she's one of the finest ones we've had: she has stood up and voiced her support for countless causes- from orphans in Italy to those affected by hurricanes and gun violence. She "owes" you nothing.

A heartless, miserable creature. Trump's own wife is an immigrant. I wonder how she'd feel if children from her own country were treated with such contempt and utter cruelty? Her silence speaks for her.

I own a retail business. Retail has a lot of complexity in the operations. I just can't see having "flash sales" for staff. CRA would want an accountability for when these sales were held and it would be suspicious if the only people purchasing are employees! I too busy just meeting CRA's current requirements and a new Eco fee I have to keep track of.

The problem may arise from the frequency of advertised "employee pricing" sales. Maybe retailers who do not hold such sales will hold unadvertised one-hour flash sales to fulfill the CRA requirement that the prices be available to the public.

And for those added taxes we get drinkable water, health care, police services and improving infrastructure. Could it be better? of course it could but not as bad as you make it out to be.

And locking your car door doesn't keep it from being robbed, because crooks can just break a window. Except that's not what happens. It DOES keep it from being robbed. When you make crime even a LITTLE harder, it decreases by a LOT.

The man who killed 58 people last week would not have been deterred by "gun locks, gun safes, registration requirements, permits for bullets, limits on magazine sizes and the outright banning of assault rifles." Neither will the next guy. It's frustrating to live in a world where we can't predict who will kill next, but there's no point talking when we all just repeat our fixed positions.

I would say "what Republican Party" in Hawaii? But be that as it may, you are right, both political parties fail to address the growing problems with homelessness in the State of Hawaii. In listening to what the "candidates say" on the matter, is all well and good, but once they get into office, they tend to forget or gloss over their political promises; we have seen this happening for over 40 years now and still, we tend to vote the same people back into office, over and over again, never learning our lessons or saying "stop, no more BS." As it seems that "We, the People" do not have the spine, to say "no" to our elected politicians; as we stood and watched the democratic party "demote" Cindy Evan's from her leadership post with barely a whisper of protest. As it stands right now, the Democratic Party platform, is to keep themselves in power, by never fulfilling their promises to the people; the word "Coward" comes to mind, but not sure if it says more about them or us..........?

Then the Democratic Party is acting exactly like the Republican Party. As both fail to truly address We the People- maybe its time to drop all labels and listen precisely to what the candidates / elected officials say / promise. If they fail to do as promised or intend, then they are gone. (Like- "Mexico will pay for that wall"- stuff like that!)

Canada is certainly being used as an educationally inexpensive stepping stone to get into the USA. With higher taxes and wealth taxes in the wind, likely increased corporation taxes and increased costs in Canada ....with the opposite likely in the USA ...the USA will suck the entrepreneurial and ambitious out of Canada.

Totlly useless head in the sand article. Foreign students are hear because of cheap subsidized by taxpayer education and a place to invest their foreign money. Canada is not talent freindly. Why would anyone live in Canada if they can live and work in California? EH.

ALL of us are called to both contemplation and practice. To doing good works AND to study and prayer. Some of us emphasize one or the other in our particular vocation, but we are called to BOTH. The academic philosopher does not just read and write, he also teaches. Teaching philosopher (especially at intro level) is not about making the students into career philosophers, but rather teaching them to think. It not so much about wether you agree with Aristotle, Plato, Heidegger, Kant, ect. but rather letting them help you to think critically for ourself. This is important wether these students decide to become engineers, accountants, doctors, or farmers. This teaching is a good work and a practical project. "Presumably you equate Mary with the theologian (or philosopher), which implies that, like Mary, theologians (and philosophers) choose the better part." Way to put words in my mouth. As I said, equally important and necessary for the life of the Church.

Of course, a philosopher would be expected to oppose the idea people should do something useful. Presumably you equate Mary with the theologian (or philosopher), which implies that, like Mary, theologians (and philosophers) choose the better part. But there is a big difference between sitting at Jesus' feet to learn, and living the live of an academic.

"there is a strong relationship between a high level of income inequality in a country and the low rate of social mobility?" And Canada enjoys relatively low inequality and extremely high Social mobility.

Are you aware that there is a strong relationship between a high level of income inequality in a country and the low rate of social mobility? One cannot address income mobility without addressing high rates of income inequality. The below is far from the only research reference (as the literature base is wide and deep), but a good place to start given it is a Canadian academic (U of O) who is well recognized internationally for his work. Income Inequality, Equality of Opportunity, and Intergenerational Mobility by Miles Corak http://pubs.aeaweb.org/doi/pdfplus/10.1257/jep.27.3.79

Joe , then why did God gift us with Sacred Scripture ? We proclaim two pillars of faith : scripture and tradition . And you tell us one of these is useless ?

The meaning of what is written can be confused in the shortest sentence between the closest friends who speak the same language. Good luck finding the truth about what was written thousands of years ago in foreign languages in foreign contexts. Like I said: fool's errand.
