blah blah blah im a liberal who just likes to ramble blah blah blah ...what was your point? That Hawaii is a drug infested liberal bastion and the people suck? I agree.

"`Spam currency' hurts everyone" Taking intelligent, sensitive, and kind beings, locking them up in conditions that make Guantanamo look like Trump Tower. Exploiting immigrant laborers. Flooding waterways with quantities of manure many times greater than produced by major metropolitan centers which in turn kills marine life and contaminates drinking water supplies, or just spraying it into the air to fall upon poor communities of color. Then transporting the animals in open air cars during freezing temperatures or excessive heat - killing some along the way. Then heading to the processing house, full of exploited immigrant workers and horrors galore. See: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2011/06/hormel-spam-pig-brains-disease/ Then shipping them to Hawai`i where they greatly increase the population's risk of colorectal cancers, and is by the company's own admission unhealthy -16 grams of fat and loads of salt to contribute to our heart disease, stroke, and diabetes numbers.

They've already given him tons of free press for a week now by freaking out. Instead of ignoring him, treating it like the fringe ideology it is, they want to treat him like some powerful leader. This only gives Spencer credibility. The only reason anyone is even talking about Richard Spencer is because the left is obsessed with the idea they are fighting Nazis. The side-effect of it is endless free marketing for what would otherwise be a fringe ideology. Literally no one on the right is giving Spencer a platform to talk.

What kind of moronic legislation compels universities to host a speaker against their will? He isn't even an academic. That said, it's imperative that protesters not start any violence against him or his audience. The neo-nazis want scenes of leftie rioters stopping their events, for propaganda value to sway "middle America" into sympathizing with them.

Your comments are EXACTLY what W Bush was talking about.

The Repubs may have reached a "new low", but Democrats are the best thing to ever happen to them. Also, racist and ageist statement from you aside, there are currently plenty of "old and white" people running the Democrat party and there always have been. Democrats at one time ran hand-in-hand with the KKK.

How does it work in Quebec? Here in BC BC Transit ProPasses and Youth Passes are Photo ID. Many BC colleges also have arrangements where Photo ID Student Cards can also be used as Transit Passes, subject to student bodies voting in favour of an add on fee when students pay their tuition.

You wouldn't be scamming because the metropass is transferable. Show how often you use transit.

Agreed. A week 5 regular season game doesn't come close to the worst moments in Broncos history, but the Jaguars game...that hurt. Mainly because I was of the opinion that the '96 Broncos were the best team in the league and were Super Bowl bound. The Little Guy

No doubt the Broncos have a history of low points over the years. My personal low point was when the Broncos lost to the Jagwads at home in the AFC game. I was living in Wyoming then and the next morning I took all my Bronco shirts and hats out to the burn barrel and torched them and swore off the team. My neighbors knew I was pissed LOL

Wilson was in the car accompanying her constituents, whom she knew personally, as well as the deceased. What was Kelly's excuse? Oh, right. He's babysitter-in-chief for the Giant Orange Ego.

"It stuns me that a member of Congress listened into that conversation" If I'm remembering correctly, what I heard yesterday was that Trump's call came in as Mrs. Johnson was en route to the airport to receive the body of her husband. She put her phone 'on speaker' and Rep. Wilson could not help but hear what was said. Therefore, it's rather unfair to suggest that she listened in or behaved inappropriately. What the president should have known is that although a call from any president is something of an honour, some moments are better than other. In fact, some moments would be entirely inappropriate. Phoning someone you do not know (and even many that you do know) as they are about to receive the body of their beloved spouse or child isn't likely to be great timing. A more sensitive person would have known that.

3 world premieres. Coriolanus has not been done since 2006, Comedy of Errors in since 2007 and Julius Caesar since 2009. Yes Mockingbird and Ideal Husband were both done in 2007 and that might be a little soon for contemporary work to be done again, but there are good reasons for both of those plays now.

What a boring "deja vu" next season. The choice is clear. Shaw for me next year.

Smiling, I agree with some of that. I've often wondered if the hard core feminist kinda ruined the special status that women had for the majority of men. Then I think about what men really did, which was screw around a lot, categorize women as wives, sad spinsters, or sluts and completely underestimate the intelligence and potential of women. It took the fierce stand of feminist to get the attention of powerful males. What many feminist saw as the 'direction' of women was NOT the dream of all woman then, or now. Millions of women aspire to the role as leader of the home life, the raising of their children, partnering with their husband to help him provide the shared income for all. Other women dream of personal freedom, pursuit of their interest ranging from deep space science to throwing pots in Santa Cruz - in other worlds they deserve the same range of choices as men. There should be no shaming of women for making either choice (and some do both)

Most run of the mill feminists, I would agree with your description. Then there are the ones that I believe Rush calls feminazis. At any rate I got the term from him and I use it to describe the extreme feminists that believe women can do it all and that men are at best worthless. What these and at least some liberals do not get is that most conservatives DO respect women. The only thing is that people like me think that men and women have different roles to play in society. Neither one greater or worse than the other. These male bashers see the verses in the Bible that describe the role wives are supposed to play and either totally ignore or are blinded to the verses that the husband is supposed to play. I also do not agree that being a guy is necessarily the best deal. This was especially true in the 60's, but is still true today. How many things have guys traditionally bought for women? On a date, who generally picks up the tab? There are others.

The insurance companies don't make money on the ACA. Your comment is sorely misinformed. Perhaps if you would research a little before you comment. What Trump has done will send insurance rates skyrocketing, and he knows it. That is the entire plan. He is the worst thing to happen to our country.

God bless President Trump! Senator Alexander thank you for proving empathically that you are in fact a crony capitalist and in the pocket of the insurance companies. Remember when you railed against congress back in the late 80's before you were a Senator? I do! Your battle cry then was "cut their pay and send them home." Senator heed thy own advice!

I'm sorry to hear about your son.

Human beings will intervene as best they can to stop a friend from hurting herself or taking her own life. I've lost my son to this destructive decision and so many people (myself included) wondered what we might have done to stop him from doing that. Even in my pain, I cannot imagine how her family must feel knowing what they do about her decision and his alleged (innocent until proven guilty) role. The "what-ifs" must be devastating.

The affordable housing they should build is not simply a mandate, but instead is in exchange for added development potential - e.g. added stories, more coverage on the parcel, a bulkier building, etc. I.e. they get to build more and make money off that, and in return they give back by offering housing at lower cost. The term is inclusionary zoning. The complaint is that the City, in its backroom deal called the "Grand Bargain", gave away a lot of development potential and is not getting enough affordable housing in return. Arguably 2% affordable - what is required downtown (and that is 2 of every 100 units needs to be "affordable') - does not "pay back" fairly against the additional development potential given away.

I don't think it is any developer's responsibility to build affordable or low income housing. Developers are not social services agencies, they are for profit businesses that build the product that is selling. There is no shortage of people who rent high end apartments or buy high end condos, townhomes and houses, that is why they are building them. Unless a developer's business model is building affordable housing, what Seattle and other misguided cities's political hacks are doing is transferring what was once the government's responsibility to private developers. That just does not work. The more regulations and red tape and expense you add on to a developers bottom line the less they will build. How many units have we actually lost because developers are staying away? Do we expect these business, who employ thousands of people to just operate at a net loss? 2.5 percent of the total population gets a sweetheart deal on their housing while the majority pay through the nose?

Keonimay, you say “Hotels in the mainland, pay a good wage, with good benefits.” On what is your comment based? I managed hotels in Hawaii on Oahu, Kauai, and the Big Island, in Washington and Wisconsin on the mainland and on Guam. There are some mainland hotels that do pay better wages and benefits than most hotels in Hawaii, but the wages and benefits paid by most mainland hotels are not better than paid here and are not as good in many places. Geographic location has a lot to do with it. The thing going for mainland workers in most areas is that the cost of living is much less than it is in Hawaii.

For those of us who have lived & worked in Hawaii, working in Hawaii & surviving in Hawaii, is an extremely difficult fact of life. Some of us, have had to leave Hawaii, to pay off our student loan debts, and develop a career with a good retirement package. Hawaii does not offer the same financial packages. Hotels in the mainland, pay a good wage, with good benefits. Why can't Hawaii do the same thing ?

I love your complete obliviousness to your own contradictions or to any sense of irony, bav. As you rail against "liberals" for their lack of "respect" you malign Clinton by calling her "Crooked Hillary". But that's different, right? No mirrors in your house, I guess, ha, ha.

Great press conference and great comments by the great John Kelly. There's no respect anymore for anything or anyone by liberals, the elites and the Fake News. It's incredibly sad that they have to politicize everything in their wild and reckless attacks on Trump. Nothing is sacred or off limits. Trump's victory over Crooked Hillary and Trump's successful and incredible Presidency have driven his political opponents insane.

Are you positive Obama was not born in Kenya? The Obama administration DID bug the WH, and Trumps administration, before and after the election. I saw the Muslims cheering also, you must have been on another channel, cnn? And now, after a year of 'investigations' by a special counsel and 2 congressional committees, looking for 'collusion' between our good American President and Russia, we find that HRC and Obama had their hands in a deal with Uranium One, a Russian company, to control 20% of America's uranium, no investigation needed, (The Clinton Foundation was given $140 MILLION in donations from the same group, Bill Clinton was paid hundreds of thousands to speak to the same bunch) it's there for ALL to see, and yet, the 'free press' says not a word. America is in big trouble, her statehood is in jeopardy.

So embarrassing....'Obama was born ín Kenya'....'Obama wiretapped Trump Tower'....'I saw thousands of Muslims cheering in New Jersey on 9/11'....'CONFEVE'..... And there are no ramifications whatsoever for this garbage....!!! Please let justice be swift, severe, devastating, and painful....

"The 2012 study, published in the Journal of Wildlife Management, showed that 92% of people using bear spray during an attack escaped injury, compared to only 50% of gun users." Of the 8% who did get injured none had life threatening injuries. It seems to be a good idea to have bear spray within easy reach (ie belt holster, etc). The failure cases of spray could be due to misuse or expired product, etc.

Another touchy feely bear story with a strong odor of "bears just need love" Treadwell philosophy. What is not addressed is the many other expert's who admit bear spray "usually" works. Or like the two guides attacked on Chichagof Island. One guide was not bitten until he sprayed the bear! Guess those darn bears don't always read the literature.(Ak daily news 8/19/16). or ask the USGS employee who used spray a few years ago with no effect (yes, she too was chewed on). The bear successfully charged thru the cloud of spray and got her. Researchers at the Univ of Calgary published a study of the use of Spray and stated ""In six cases, the bear continued to act aggressively; in three of these cases the bear attacked the person spraying." Tom S. Smith, Ph.D., Alaska Science Center reported in his study" Of these 15 incidents where person(s) chose to use bear pepper spray to defend themselves, 13 were decided successes (87% success rate), and 2 were judged ‘failures’. So you decide Alaska

The Denver Post is focusing on the wrong Russian story. I am so glad so fewer and fewer people are actually reading the biased dinosaur media. The bad part is that media becomes more and more desperate to make news and bait stories.

Are you aware that the use of contraception (the pill) has the possibility to cause an abortion. When the sperm and egg join it is not able to continue its Life process so it is sloffed from the womb causing an abortion. No one tells this, do they!

Dear Joe, The laity does not accept that contraception is sinful as over 90% have used it during their lives as a necessary part of good coupling. It is time for a synod of the laity to tell the clerics just that. This synod should indeed change the clerical system itself...

The idea of testing every backyard chicken egg is your idea, not mine. It seems quite silly, but then, maybe you are a quite silly individual? Test the chickens being sold to backyard farmers. That's what we're talking about, obviously.

You obviously have no clue when it comes to agriculture ... you want each and every egg that is harvested by backyard chickens to be tested (mandated by law) before exposure and consumption ... The liberal mind knows know bounds

Before I comment above. You Joni...are wrong. President Trump respects the military. What a hard call to make. You have plenty to say about what is wrong with Trump...but how about Wilson "Now I'm a Rock Star". How about that...get her fame and fortune off the backs of a soldier who died for his country so she (Wilson) COULD OPEN HER BIG FAT YAP. Read it again...I don't see anything inarticulate about what he said. Further...It was a Gold Star Father, i.e., General Kelly that was the most hurt by Wilson's insensitive remarks. Dimmocrats should never be elected to represent ANYTHING.

Trump's inarticulate. I knew what he was attempting to say but he said it clumsily, probably in such an off-hand manner it did come across as offensive. But Kelly & Trump are off-base in the name calling of Wilson. GSFs deserve all our gratitude but there's only 1 God & despite best efforts, even Kelly can be wrong.

It would be nice to have the option of "Stand up for women who are being discriminated against."

It will pay off politically for Mr Trudeau to keep as low a profile as possible on this file. “please just go away” Reasonably , I suspect a significant majority of the country is uncomfortable with faces hidden from the rest of society, So to fight this issue through to the end is a classic “ no win” The options are “muddy the file by making it someone elses problem” “ ignore direct spoken references that can be sound bited “ “find other issue to feed into news cycle quickly” “ blame past regime” Reasonably : we will probably see all of these.

Your 'apostle' is meaningless to an agnostic such as myself. Base your argument on the revealed doctrines of His Noodleness, The Flying Spaghetti Monster, instead. You brought the word 'hypocisy' into this thread.

<- slowly shakes head. You're smarter than this MC. My original post had nothing to do with hypocrisy and everything to do with the vanity of man. Hypocrisy came up when you referenced Jack Daniels. Hypocrite; DO AS I SAY NOT AS I DO. In the case of Jack Daniels...this community is a dry county where you cannot purchase the booze that is brewed in this community. The epitome of do as I say not as I do. That you of all people on CC need that explained to you? I'm reminded of the Apostle Peter speaking of those who are willingly ignorant.

Maybe it's your ignorant bias that knows no boundaries. My very religious, conservative, Republican-voting neighbors are the only ones on the block with backyard chickens.

Mission accomplished: bring people back to nature with all it's risks and deceases. And the most fun and educational part for kids is the killing of Suzy Chicken for Sunday's dinner. Back to nature indeed. The left's stupidity knows no boundaries.

“spirituality” lol do you wear yoga pants?

Why would anyone say we hate religion? Many of us simply prefer to practice spirituality, instead. But we will point out hypocrisy and other issues with religion when they expose themselves. This does not equate to hate, just like criticizing a president does not equate to hate.

All of the data - all of it - shows that undocumented workers add substantially to the GDP, and are a net positive force. The Trump administration performed a study to prove their prejudice, but when the facts came out showing they were wrong, the study was withdrawn. You never know what you're talking about. Not ever, on any subject.

Nice try with the fake info cupcake! Illegals are a net drain on the economy due to the welfare they receive and to top that off with free education for their kids. Google the FACTS. Not going to waste my time posting links proving all this. It's no wonder you're a useless unemployed lawyer, you can't even research basic facts.

No lawyer is better than a hairy lawyer. At some point Miles No Brainer is better off making no comment than acting like Bagdad Bob. When the Feds come after you, they coming fully locked and loaded. There is very very little chance of escape. The have the resources to get five times the evidence they need to convict. This is not about our legal system - it's about a lawyer who must think we believe him when he's peeing on our leg and telling us it's raining.

While I have great respect for honest police officers and zero sympathy for crooked cops, I think attacking a defense attorney like Miles Breiner is foolish. If we had no lawyers prepared to defend even the worst criminals, our legal system, designed to protect us all, would fall apart. The Kealohas may be guilty, but they must have their day in court and they must have adequate counsel - that's the American way and it's why we are not some tin-pot phony democracy where the judiciary is beholden to the executive. We need capable defense lawyers and, I might add while I'm at it, we need a system where honest investigators like Robert Mueller can do their jobs without interference from the White House. That's our legal system - it's not perfect, but we're better off with it than not.

By end of 2018, Tesla should be at .5-75M cars / year just in CA. Considering that America only makes 12M vehicles / year (and dropping) in America, will make tesla to be 5-10% of our new cars.

I tried to say, they spent money on THE NEWER planes which brought added expenses, I assumed. They have to run the operation with what they had. No information on whose idea to create more expenses. I assume the top management. Now bankruptcy.

Just because this article says "Billionaire Larry Ellison who remains a one-third owner in the airline." Means nothing as not the Majority Share Holder. "Newer Is Not Better", as Island Air switched from High Performance ATR aircraft to New less performance Canadian Q400 aircraft that then put Island Air in Debt.

As a matter of law, yes, they have a choice. Attempting to coerce someone by the use or threat of force to wear a niqab is a criminal offence.

Not Euro. The Charter is inspired almost entirely by the American Bill of Rights. No American court would even listen to arguments that face coverings should be banned "for the good of society".

That's an absurd comment. Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms in fact veers entirely from the British "Supremacy of Parliament" tradition. It is essentially a Euro-American construct, and its merits, or otherwise, should be evaluated in this context.

Nobody is saying they should make "everything" part of the job. That's just overblown straw man rhetoric. The NFL is an entertainment business. They sell 3+ hour events to the public. The main event is the game itself, but if you've ever been to a game or seen one on TV, you know there's more to the event than the game alone. There's pregame activities and post-game activities as well. PUBLIC activities, that are part of the event that the employees are there putting on for the public. One of the pieces of the whole event is a performance of the national anthem, on the field, usually on TV, where the cameras put the players, coaches, staff, etc on display standing and showing respect for the national anthem. You could complain about not liking that the national anthem is part of the pregame, but the fact is that IT IS. And like any employees, NFL employees are expected to partake in that ceremony as PART OF THE JOB. Perfectly legal for them to make it a job requirement.

They can't make everything "part of the job", only those thing that apply to the job. For instance, they can't make it part of your job to keep from expressing your First Amendment rights. There are some things an employer can fire you for and other things that they cannot. After I got out of the Navy, I never had a job where I could be fired for not standing for the anthem or not saluting the flag. I wouldn't love a country where that could be done. That's why I'm glad to live in America. It's a country I can love and respect ... so far at least. dbsb3233, I really think you and I are on the same page. We both love our country but maybe not for the same reasons. Best, RTD

I've read Breitbart and despise it and the "alt-right." I've always been and will die a liberal. So you can just go right back to the farm, Comrade.

I used to post on DailyKos with my liberal buddies. And I checked out FreeRepublic to see what the other side was up to. Found out that the FreeRepublic guys made a lot of sense and weren't the stupid hillbillies I though they were. You should spend some time on Breitbart; might be a real eye-opener for you. Joel Pollack's articles are some of my favorites.

"Multiple spree murders by a single person were extremely rare before wheelguns." (what is a wheelgun, a inert object) So look at what is broken in our society and the world. There is the answer. (I am thinking start with a sense of entitlement to begin with entitled to mandate one religion as the Only One, demand a girl be with me and not you, mandate the only free speech is one 'I say' you can say, demand my parents buy me what I demand they buy me, demand a employer give me my job back and never fire me no matter what, just for example.)

Multiple spree murders by a single person were extremely rare before wheelguns. You can not deny that only a skilled swordsman could kill with the same ease as an amateur marksman with a small investment. One person with a knife cannot kill 58 people in a crowd of thousands. It would not be possible.

Jeff Sessions got called before the US Senate and surprise surprise, he refused to answer their questions. Sessions said he would not talk about his conversations with Mr. Trump unless and until the president decided to waive executive privilege. Guess what, Trump has not invoked executive privilege, so Sessions is just refusing to testify. This is the second time Sessions has refused to testify.

You wrote: "Today, he is supposed to be happy and supportive [that his daughter was turned on to the joys of same sex fun.]" A comment like that and a someone might wonder if the person saying it is feeling bad they are not getting enough action from lesbians. What do you think?

Actually, a few years ago, fathers would be very upset to hear their daughter say that a lesbian had propositioned her and turned her on to the joys of same sex fun. Today, he is supposed to be happy and supportive. Regarding us fathers, yes we would strike out at anyone who trying to force daughters to experience anything they did not want to experience. But the flaw in your analysis is that all sex is forced or unpleasant. I have this on the best of authority. Also, you ignore the fact many people take full advantage of the opposite sex to achieve their objectives, female and male. IMHO your view is very narrow.

Cat: Reply: 1. Corporate bonds and ETFs are vastly different animals. 2. Yes "they" could provide diversification for those who want / need it. 3. Coverage by the G&M is low as likely the topic has little interest to the general investingpublic. 4. Bonds are not as straightforward as GICs. 5. Unrewarding? I did not say that. I simply believe there is insufficient incremental reward for most investors for the time spent. 6. Never did I say or suggest that "the bond market cannot beat GICs." See point #5 above. 6. Mr. Hymas shows that MFC bond produced an avg. ann. return of 8.38% from Apr 2009 - Apr 2014. And agreed, not a bad return. Since you brought up pipelines as you almost do, that "favourite pipeline" over the same Apr 2009 - Apr 2014 period produced an avg. ann. return of precisely 26.91% does not include the tax advantages. I'll let you add up the total 5-yr. numbers. The payoff per unit of time spent is generally small for bonds and can be large for equities. SFI

By "little coverage of corporate bonds" I really meant as ETFs... There is a spectrum of higher yielding funds which have been doing quite well....with a 4-5% yield. In my mind they could be a good diversification away from "dividend equities" for investors who want income. The Globe seems to confine itself to only occasionally mentioning very conservative GoC (etc) bond funds. IMO,with QE over,global growth etc etc they could be one of the worst places to be right now. ........... Meanwhile, you are reinforcing the implied message here that bond investments are tricky,complicated and unrewarding. As in we should all keep buying PZA and AW.Un etc etc ?? And,despite saying you have never being invested in it... your suggesting the bond market cannot beat GIC's ?? Better check with Ms Moneypenny.

Or that as "white people" expanded into other parts of the world, they built the engine of European/Western economies by oppressing and sometimes destroying Indigenous cultures (consider the Spanish in Central & South America, the Belgians in the Congo) and with a hefty assist from free labour -- slavery.

If you read about the modern history of Africa you will learn that former colonial powers actively undermine emerging independent leaders on that resource rich continent. As an example, look up Patrice Lumumba. So Faber is correct but he did not tell you why Africa is the way it is.

Yes, skyofblue, I understand you believe you've rebutted it. You haven't. I've been to many so-called "no-go zones" in Paris; my hotel bordered one in my last stay. Women got off buses and walked home at night, I walked and bicycled, life went on, In my experience, the concept is perpetuated by people who hate both islam and muslims. People like Daniel Pipes who wrote the article you just quoted from. People who see a terrorist when they look at a woman wearing a headscarf.

Alceste, I have rebutted this again and again. http://www.algemeiner.com/2015/12/07/the-truth-about-muslim-no-go-zones-in-europe/# "Whether or not Molenbeek, Rinkeby, and the Marseilles slum are no-go zones, then, depends on what aspect one chooses to emphasize — their accessibility to ordinary visitors at ordinary times or their inaccessibility to government officials in times of tension. There are also no-go gradations, some places where attacks are more frequent and violent, others less so. However one sums up this complex situation — maybe partial-no-go zones? — they represent a great danger."

Exactly... we are free in Canada to criticize cultural and religious practices we find backwards. But let's not legislate it, if it's not a security risk.

You know, as a Canadian raised on certain values, I'd say I have to stick to my guns on this one and disagree with the niqab ban. This is purely from a rights perspective - I'd like to think we were a freer and smarter country than government dictating any dress codes. Rather than diminishing other rights, we should be rallying to strengthen ours, such as criticism and mockery of backwards religious practices.

Lol...you mean he's keeping his mouth shut so that he doesn't upset the largest vote rich area in Canada that will either put him back in power or toss his horrible government to the curb in 2019.

Loyalty went out the door when personnel departments became human resource departments. After all resources are there to be exploited, personnel were developed and treated like people.

Does the author of this piece realize work-place "loyalty" went the way of the dodo 25 years ago? Give thanks to folks such as "Chainsaw Al" Dunlap and "Neutron Jack" Welch for that. Amazingly naive article. As long as employers continue to refer to employees as "headcount", NO employer deserves an ounce of loyalty. Soak up the laughable "benefits", drink as much free coffee as you can, steal your body weight in office supplies, and move on.

A choice!! Absurd!! What woman wants to cover herself in black cloth in 30C weather including her head and face? Think of the inconvenience, the impracticality of it.

Actually they have cities, tall building and everything, even indoor plumbing. The tradition goes back to the early Protestant/Calvanist I believe. (Pella is Dutch Reform immigrants, very conservative). Our early north American towns were built in squares for safety. Town's were literally built in squares so that the neighbors could watch each other and that would give them strength from sinful behavior. Could be old wives tale, but I think based on truth. Pella neighbors trust each others, most don't lock doors (I never did). Does it mean some snoopy people - sure. Does it mean you won't rot in your house for two days before anybody notices, sure does. Will neighbor's watch for your safety and property, they sure will. It's got good and bad to the arrangement, mostly good. It's just a very weird place, I've never been anywhere quite like it.

Yes, I was talking about the skyscrapers going up. In Iowa, you have miles between neighbors so you do not need fences.

BluesBreaker, how wonderful for starting, 5,000 Role Models, for disadvantaged kids that helped a lot of them finish school and go on to serve their communities and the country, like Sgt. La David Johnson, but what has she done for Sgt. Johnson and his family and for others that served their country? She voted AGAINST a bill in the House that would have provided greater death benefits for military killed on active duty, something that would have benefited Mrs. Johnson and her future child. She also voted against many other bills to benefit military, veterans and their families, too many to be listed here. I read about it in a Fox News report. But wait, you can’t trust Fox News so please read all about her voting record here: https://votesmart.org/candidate/key-votes/17319/frederica-wilson/66/veterans#.WevzhGiCzIW. And now she plays the race card. She is despicable.

She started a program, 5,000 Role Models, for disadvantaged kids that helped a lot of them finish school and go on to serve their communities and the country, like Sgt. La David Johnson, whose name Trump couldn't even recall when he phoned Johnson's mother. John Kelly, the new field commander in Trump's culture war, who's spent his entire adult life in the military and has never done anything for disadvantaged children or anyone outside of the military, attacked Wilson and falsely accused of her of taking credit for funding the construction of an FBI building in her district. We now have a White House chief of staff who divides America into those who "serve" in uniform — at home and abroad — and those who should shut up.

Columbus was looking for India. I hope you know the difference between India and China? As for the Muslim conquest of Constantinople, let's not forget that the Orthodox Patriarch resided there for hundreds of years afterwards. Whereas every single Muslim in Spain, Portugal and Italy was converted, killed or forced to flee. Every single one.

In 1453, a mere 39 years before Columbus sailed west, the Islamic Ottoman Turks conquered the Christian city of Constantinople. Constantinople was founded by Emperor Constantine in 325 as the new capital of the Christian Roman empire. The Muslim armies drove out the Christians and massacred them in wholesale bloodbath. Canada did nothing of the sort to natives what Islam's invasion armies did to Christian Europe. When the eastern trade routes fell under Ottoman control, European traders had to find a new route to China, hence the necessity of Columbus's voyage. So it is you who should apologize to natives. If you're prepared to cede Constantinople, Turkey and the Bosporus back to European control, we can then discuss your support of native land claims.

Did you know the NEB is a quasi judicial organization at arms length from government and the PM doesn't set their terms of reference/operation? Aren't facts cool.

Talking about facts, do you know that new NEB regulations requiring pipeline owners to be responsible for the GHG production of burned petroleum products that their pipelines will carry, basically makes it impossible for new pipelines to be built? I think that that fact alone shows that JT has no interest in new pipeline construction in Canada, even though he pretends to support some.

Well we certainly got an amazing women's coach from Gonzaga for the Duck Women. I've always liked their program. Two Pella kids played for Dana at Creighton and I've watched his teams for what seems like 20 years. Kyle Korver and his younger brother Kaleb were my pastor's son's. He had two other boys, one played at Drake the other at KC -I think he might have played with the kid from North? Pastor Korver (RCA) took some ribbing for sending his kids to a Catholic school, but he attended all the games and most of the time the team Priest sat with them, Pastor thought enough of Dana to put two boys in his care, that's testimony counts for me. Creighton dominated the MVC while Altman was coach, but honestly, he's even better that I thought he might be at the major college level. Gonzaga is not all NW kids, I know Sabonis was someplace out Waaaay east. http://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/team/roster/_/id/2250/gonzaga-bulldogs. 2 kids from the NW, 3 from Europe.

Got lucky last year in basketball. The northwest basketball team is from Gonzaga. You might also have an idea of the fun I was having with 'skyscrapers' and 'traffic jams'. 'Tall' buildings in Eugene? That is a joke, son, Same thing for traffic jams. Did spend most of my high school years in a smaller community on Hood Canal. Nice spot. Had quite a few summer homes. It was not unheard of there to have people spend their summers there and winters in the south. If you want some fun, search for some videos of Seattle drivers in the snow. Keep in mind that it does not snow much there and you have plenty of hills.

The tax code which has served Canadians since 1972 does not need this amateur Liberal gerrymandering. It certainly does not need a drop in the small business tax rate to 9%.

Changes to the tax code were very poorly presented, perhaps because the Liberals had a 75 day consultation period and they thought the facts would come out naturally over that time period. But presenting tax changes is not very interesting, the fight the Cons put together with the help of all their right wing supporters (Fraser Institute, Canadian Taxpayers Fed, etc.) was fun to cover as was the wealth of our finance minster and his villa in France. Nothing Conservatives and the media hate more than a wealthy L/liberal. Too bad - the tax code needs updating and loopholes closed but this fiasco makes it all much, much harder.

I certainly hope not, she is a failure and the hiring of Marco Lias was a form of nepotism that should not be tolerated. Also, she and none of her administration can keep their word about following up on promises for enforcing zoning codes in residential neighborhoods that aren't as influential as Harbour Pointe.

Yes sir 100% - I’m with you and Fortold !

My dad was a DP after WWII, a displaced person from a destroyed country brutalized by the Nazis then over run by communists where he was threatened with death. Canada beckoned with the only promise a Saskatchewan CPR labour job in -25 weather. He paid his own passage to Canada. He did not arrive at the border, from America, in a taxi or bus, suitcase in hand knowing the Canadian refugee system was little more than a way to circumvent the regular immigration channels. He did not expect to be put up in a hotel/motel and given welfare cheques. Millions of Canadians like my dad built this country, genuine refugees with death at their door, so grateful for this country's generosity. Today's Haitian USA situation, fostered by our simpering, grandstanding PM is a joke by comparison. Now, don't we all wish Harper was in charge? Yes, we do.

There is a difference between people who voted for Trump as a vote against his opponent and those who voted FOR Trump precisely because Trump made it a major point of his campaign to empower their bigotry. If you can't see this difference than you and Pandora are blissfully pretending your feet on are on solid moral ground when in point of fact, the ground is a mass of quicksand sucking in the good with the bigot.

Yes, the article is "hateful," even while that wildly overused and misused word needs to be retired. When it is misapplied to Trump and the people who voted against his opponent, it simply fails in every possible respect.

larryb16, The comment section just doesn't offer the room for an adequate explanation to your query. I suggest you consult some of the hundreds of books on this topic that explain the why's and how's surrounding our Canadian political system. After which, I think you will feel truly blessed to live in an era when such a thoughtful system has been put in place for the protection of all of us.

Why does our country allow a group of appointed lawyers the power to use their interpretation of our constitution to over rule the democratic decisions of our political leaders? If we are going to give such power to a group of people than we should expect to these people should be democratically elected to do that job.

Yes, there's gold left in the area. Financials depend on the size of the extraction operation and the price of gold. "Tom's Baby" the largest gold nugget ever found in Colorado was uncovered in dredge spoils in what is now known as Breckenridge. http://www.5280.com/2017/03/colorado-toms-baby/

Didn't know they left the Klondike. After the disastrous season when they went to South America to mine gold and came up completely empty-handed (apart from a few small worthless diamonds), you didn't think they'd risk going outside of Canada again. Is there even enough gold left in the CO high country to make their financials work?

As others have pointed out, it's about psychology, not science. Once someone has invested themselves in an opinion, they will go to their grave with it. No amount of reasoning will persuade them, because you're attacking their self-esteem, not having an academic discussion. Once you understand this, you realize trying to reason with them is pointless. They will root out every conspiracy website they can find and cling to its promises that they are right.

It just seems so odd. For someone to be shown unequivocally that they are mistaken, and instead of being...I don't know...embarrassed, remorseful, even grateful, they simply repeat the mistaken bit? I don't get it.

Actually it does block "banning semi-automatic weapons," because under the Heller SCOTUS decision, semi-automatic weapons are in "common use" (as they have been for over a century) and are thus protected. The U.S. Supreme Court also ruled in two separate decisions that the 2nd Amendment protects an individual right to gun ownership irrespective of the militia clause. Guns are already heavily regulated; only the misinformed will dispute that.

The 2nd amendment does not blocks regulating guns rights, for instance banning semi-automatic weapons. It even starts by "A WELL REGULATED Militia". Why always focus only on the last part of this amendment and always forget the first part ?

Trudeau has put together a very good team, just as he said he would. But Ambrose and Harper ambassador to the US were just interviewed on CTV and they both seem to feel losing NAFTA will hurt Canada quite a bit. So, have to disagree with you there. Conservatives make most things about one heroic dude against one evil dude. It's the way they understand their world, it seems. So opposition politicians, cabinet ministers, businesses, CEOs, industry, FNs - all at the table just confuses them so they pretend it's not happening.

You haven't read much have you. Most people agree that even if Nafta goes away things won't be very bad at all and might even be good. The fact is that most business's across all border still have to operate and function and consumers still have to live and that won't change. You make it sound like Trudeau and Freedland an negotiating all by themselves and that their team is a bunch of trained seals barking at their command. You also forget that most major US companies like Nafta and are pressuring their congressmen and senators as we speak and we all know how those people react to funding.

Then present evidence disputing the accuracy of any of my comments about this man's "private life" which he made public a year ago. In my opinion, he crafted his theology to suit his drives's, which he kept hidden in the dark, rather than conform his life to God's will and the Church's teachings.

If such rude ravings are to be taken as your fruits, then we need to doubt the genuineness of your "love of Christ and Church" claim.

Jane, all good arguments. And I realize it's a small percentage of the population. I don't currently feel threatened in anyway. Thank you for your thoughtful comments. My mind is not made up on this issue and I appreciate the dialogue. I'd like to see our society have a dialogue about this when it's not related to politics, especially the politics of fear. I also feel that by covering the face, one is closing the door to engagement in society. What does that say about our society? Overall, this discussion reminds me of the arguments for polygamy for religious reasons.

We do allow women to breastfeed in public. It is a law. Thus there is flexibility depending on circumstance built into laws. We allow abortion but do not support gender related abortion. Do you really believe the misogynists will allow these women out of the house without the facial covering? Are we all to abide by these rules out of fear? Are you going to force people not to wear dark sunglasses on hot days or balaclavas on cold days? As for your fear that those wearing full coverings will be in the majority, at present they make up 3 percent of Canadian Muslims.

The collateral damage from Nortel, although almost impossible to quantify, has been very significant. It dented Canada's international reputation in a number of ways. Would agree there needs to be a way to support employee benefits. It's not acceptable for serious commitments to be made to people with respect to their employment that are relatively lightly cast aside when the tough gets going.

If you look at the auto industry contribution to GDP or to exports you will better understand why support was provided. Neither Nortel nor Sears would come close. That said, I have great sympathy for former employees of all three companies who saw their severances, pensions and other benefits erased or slashed. Governments must legislate to place employee needs ahead of lenders when companies go bankrupt. Better yet, governments need to legislate bonds to fully fund employee benefits.

By bucket I mean the 4 litre plastic container. You must be from TO by the way that you are commiserating over the lingo. And as far as truck ownership goes either you get it or you do not. One in 12 vehicles sold in Canada last year was an F series truck. Apparently a lot of Canadians are getting what is beyond you.

"Bucket of bar oil"? Have you used a chainsaw? My bar oil comes in a plastic container. And when I need to haul it anywhere (which is rare because I use it at my cottage) I just stick it in the back with all the accessories in a box. Gas and 2 cycle oil same thing. If there's a lot of wood - I would use a trailer. At the cottage I have two tractors and another trailer. If you buy a truck for simple things like that, you should re-think things. I mean seriously: are you really thinking "Oh my god, I need to take my chainsaw somewhere - get the truck!!". Again, do you actually own any of the vehicles you keep talking about?

It's always easy to say out-coached but if players don't execute ... They always look under prepared. No one was saying they were under prepared in the first two games.

This was the worst Bronco"s game in years. Time to review the coaching staff. Two weeks in a row the team was totally unprepared. Something must change by next week, or give up the season

Hatred only existed during the Obama presidency. On Jan 20, Trump said : “The American carnage stops right here, right now,”. The past 9 months has been that of a love fest envisioned in the Elysian Fields. I know that to be true from Fox & Friends.

Right. Neo-nazis and the KKK can march, with Trump calling at least some of them "good people", and Pandora denies that there is hatred in America.

Other rules apply in the court of public opinion.

Is it possible they are innocent? Why the leis, and why is the chief sporting that new hipster look with the pony tail? Lets give them their day in court just like all 'alleged criminals' get. Remember, innocent until proven guilty.

I, too, am glad that you have access to the Latin Mass. I am extraordinarily glad that the ordinary form of the Mass is to be celebrated in the vernacular.

Glad I have access to the Latin Mass and will not have to hear whatever dumbed down translation comes out of this.

Tell me how having China on their is anymore hypocritical than having the USA? Who has killed more people in the last 50 years?

Can anyone conceive of anything more stupid than appointing Mugabe in this role? Well, how about China being on the UN Human Rights Council. Now you know why Harper treated the UN with derision and disdain. This is why. This and many other examples of withering in the face of thuggish regimes who dine in New york while committing atrocities in languages we do not speak.
