Yeah, no one has ever thought of that before.

In the meantime . . .?


Frank Baker, if #4's in 3" shells don't get the job done, try "00" bucks.


Why are we surprised, this goes on day in and day out in most Corporations, we are just now starting to mature. What happens 35 years ago does not count today, but if it is today, then CSIS should do us a favor and just settle, they are going to lose anyway, and save us all from the endless cycles of media drip trying to create another story. PAY UP NOW should be the melody.


This is yet another example of the science illiterates with arts degrees that are acting as the engineering staff in the Trudeau regime.

Fact is that all recent peer reviewed science in REPUTABLE journals is telling us that biofuels are as dangerous source of GHG's  and air pollution, as coal over the twenty years where urgent action is required. We can't afford to wait over the next 100 years for plant based CO2 to be reabsorbed.

Where liquid fuels are required the best bet is  Canada's Terrestrial Energy's,  best in the world, 2021 in service, penny a kwh, factory produced, "thorium" nuke, brewing zero net carbon synthetic diesel at 25 cents a litre, capable of eliminating Canada's GHG's by 2030 at no net cost. It has the US DOE looking to send $1.2B in cash its way.

Google "terrestrial-energy-applying-for-800m-to.html"

Despite the American support and an excellent chance at $trillion annual industrial benefit, not a nickel of support or kind world from the Trudeau regime.


Noam Chomsky is talking about the US where the rich are way richer than in Canada.
And what make Noam Chomsky right? He ignores the fact that the current economic system has brought unparalleled prosperity to most in the western nations.  Its not perfect but better than his alternatives

You also don't understand the biggest shareholders today are institutional not  individuals. The biggest shareholders in Canada are pension plans especially public service pension plans.

The vast majority of 1% in Canada work for a living, most are professionals (doctors lawyers, accountants) or senior  management in companies. Not the idle rich who are very few in number. The medium income for the 1% in Canada in 2014 was $313,000  which is more upper middle class range,

Wrong. High divorce rates are much more prevalent in lower income households. It is economically devastating for those who go through it.


If the bridge tolls have been cancelled what has happened to TREO and all the people they employed? How much will that cost the taxpayer?


Through all this media driven animosity, one thing is for certain; history is being repeated by those unwilling to learn from it.

The media was completely controlled by Hitler, and both shaped the masses, by fomenting hate. Today the political class is comply controlled by the media, and both shape the masses, by fomenting hate.


I'm not ignorant of troll farms migrating but the fact is the ADN is a very small pond in a very red state.  Why would they bother spending resources on the ADN comments section where maybe a hundred or so people read let alone comment?


I can't tell if you're kidding or not, but no, racists and neo--Nazis and klansmen do not deserve or get any respect or courtesy from decent Americans. They must be protested.


China and US have signed a historically biggest contract value $ 253 billion US dollars that is more than many country’s total foreign reserves.


As I've not asserted any of those bits of straw, I remain quite genuine, while you seem to be completely lacking in comprehension...and a bit lax in regard to ethics and decorum.

You've still not answered my question. But, as a perk, it must be gratifying to know that you still fit in your cheerleading outfit.


Wind farms are good for investors, and backed by gov.. But all the wind in China won't
fix the hole in the sky, only science will.


Agreed.  Freeland has never created a job, met a payroll, or been in a job long enough to face the consequences of her actions.  She's a skipping stone.


And the nuclear weapons reported by Russia and the U.S. are what they say they have not necessarily what they actually have.


Oh please...  call it what it is.  UPC participation in this parade is, for the most part, a blatent attempt to co-opt an event for its own purposes - free press, acting more liberal and inclusive than they really are, and hopefully clawing in a few extra votes by doing so.

Jean must realize that Wildrose has now chosen the likes of Jason Kenny and Alberta alt-righters as a bed partners as they merged into UCP.  Wild Rose has had a few zingers in its ranks over the years, and Kenny's slimy position on outing kids who join LGBTQ school groups is a uniquely Alberta stance that espouses the old 'we're still pretty redneck and intolerant' attitude.

You chose your bed partner, Brian, now snuggle up and feel the heat.

I say keep these political groups out of parades.  If they participate let them do it as individuals in support of the cause, and without a political agenda.


According to various reports, Donald Trump has blown off most of the daily intelligence briefings that he is entitled to see. These briefings show the latest global developments and security threats to America. So far Trump has only attended 3 or 4 of them saying he is too busy. Yet he seems to have plenty of time getting into Twitter wars with people who anger him and Saturday Night Live.


If you wanted to expose your ignorance of how ballistic missiles work, consider it mission accomplished.


The usual juvenile illiterate response from a troller of the Comments Neo-Nazi Republicans.


Some painful reality Ms. Patkotak. Thanks for your voice of experience in what seems to be an impossibly difficult decision for so many men and women.


I support the Stand for Salmon Initiative.  Development that does not negatively impact salmon streams will not be inhibited in any way by this initiative.  Commercial fishing and processing provides thousands of jobs for our state. So if creating and sustaining jobs is an issue,  the initiative is clearly a good thing for Alaska.   http://www.standforsalmon.org/our-platform.html


The Dept of Transportation should not renew Securitas contract.  The dog was probably confused after the plane trip and being away from his owners.  The dog was not dangerous to anyone.  I have seen  passengers, young and old  confused after a plane ride.  The Dept of Transportation  is also at fault for allowing Securitas officers to carry a gun.  As a taxpayer, I feel it is better to settle  with the family fast before all the fancy lawyers get interested in this case.


I think that it's abundantly clear that the priests have lost their way.  Whether they will ever find it is a very open question.


You're saying let's build the "metro" (at whatever cost), get it "up and running" so that we can THEN KNOW what the ridership WILL BE and THEN get "more accurate O & M costs"?  How to get it up and running with no electricity?  I'm speechless........


The old barque of Peter, ECCLESIA, is docked for refurbishing. Old shipmen are being fired.
Long overdue! Where can competent shipbuilders be found to update and refurbish her with timely capacities? Pope Francis is searching and picking people (perhaps) based on their talent to equip and update (at least this is what the people are hoping). Hierarchical types of the past, who have brought on the wreck, are not the ones to re-appoint to refit her.


DC could do something similar around Pennsylvania Avenue.


I have a former ex that always appeared when I started a new relationship causing them to fall apart. We would resume dating only to part within months. Years later she showed up when I was to be married, being older and wiser I wished her a good life and goodbye.

I agree with much of the authors response...she is dating your close friend...did either ask how you feel about it? I would write them both off and move on with your life. They both must be aware that it will hurt you but obviously do not care. If he is a close friend he knows how you feel about her. She was probably staying close to you after the breakup to access him.

If cutting her off cold turkey brings her back to your door...do not answer it.


While this links goes to Dairy Farmers of Canada it contains more accurate "facts" than Martha Hall Findlay's  general "facts" as it looks at the entire picture.

Lyon, France popular priest wants to marry.  "I discover an unexpected joy that seems to me in the continuity of what I have lived until then..."

'I wished to be in truth with the Church by speaking of both my joy of being a priest and my desire to marry.  So I told the cardinal and we talked about the idea of a dialogue with the Pope. This one-on-one meeting could take place. He listened to me with kindness and honoured my approach to integrity. Then the Pope and Bishop Barbarin exchanged and our bishop asked me to take a moment of discernment and retreat."

I hope Pope Francis will have that meeting with Bishop Barbarin and Father Gréa.  It is positive to hear of a bishop who wants to dialogue with the Pope about this issue.  If Pope Francis is open to this change, I think he will have to take another step in getting the ball rolling and not wait for some courageous bishops to try to lead their conference to support change.  Is that an oxymoron?  Maybe not - but still rare.


Lol
I just finished commenting on how Trump channels Americans’ arrogance, ignorance and selfishness. I used those three words and spoke in general terms. Thank you for illustrating my point. Even when insulted by Americans, Canadians are still polite. And apparently correct.


So, get the new ID, unless you're scared that someone will find-you-out. Then require it for voting, a far more important thing than many that do require a proper ID>


How do you deal with a  joke made at your expense? You grin and shoot back a zinger that puts the person in their place! I've done it for years and it works every time! That's what Arianna Huffington should have done.


The oppressors are the politicians, not the low wage earners. Maybe I wasn't clear. Wynne has kept done well to stifle economic advancement of the lower wage earners (which should look like the acquisition of skills on the job in order to work towards more lucrative levels) and is nonetheless buying their votes by artificially raising their value with a minimum wage increase that will only give the workers the temporary illusion of more financial independence.


Congratulations on your propaganda art of smearing and confusing. Caldwell is Hawaii's Trump.

I never entertained & have NO interest in an income job from Mayor Djou. I am a concerned citizen interested in seeing good government work for the people. I cannot stand corrupt PAY to PLAY officials like Kirk Caldwell.

On second thought: Mayor Djou, can I have the job of Mr. Ray Soon, the resurrected Chief of Staff to Mayor Caldwell?

Mr. Soon is paid $125,000 a year to smooth relations with the City Council. Mr. Soon is also allowed to manage his own personal company concurrently.

As I see it, Mayor still have plenty of problems working with the City Council. I've attended more City Council meetings than Mr. Soon.

Or, how about those special jobs used by Mayor Caldwell? Those bogus positions on paper (about $50,000 to $100,000) but actually acting as personal PR political hacks for Caldwell? I could be a quick study on smearing and disinformation and move your podium all over  :=)


Roy Kamisato, What data leads you to conclude that homeowners are the "main culprit of pesticide drift"?


Not to mention that like everything else he doesn't know jack💩💩it about golf. It's just a way to handle his attention deficit disorder. 🤔😴🙈

Moar war, Danny, moar war... that'll fix it fer shure.


Derick,

You've actually made a most excellent argument for why many members of our society should indeed consider the acquisition of a powerful handgun, rifle or shotgun for self defense.  From your moniker I'm assuming you to be male.  If so, then you do realize that until the invention of reliable and easily portable firearms, your average young adult male of large body size could almost inevitably have his way (or "pleasure" if your mind works that way) with the average female or other lone male?

The historical record does not support the notion that personal safety of women, the aged, or any marginalized group was arguably better just because guns weren't invented.  And I do not think our society today will see a net increase in personal safety if we chose to return to a time when brute strength ruled.

I'll grant you that if we could magically uninvent all guns ever made, plus eliminate all human means of making more, and most important, eliminate all evil, it may lead to peace.


According to the survey, a self-identifying gay Conservative is really just a John Manley Liberal who is decisive, accountable and wearing tight pants. Scott Brison was once responsible about public finances, but he's fixed now. Just leave your mind at the BRT door - you'll love the new you!


Right now the Dems are keeping their strategic mouths shut as the Circular Firing Squad formerly known as the GOP is busily cutting each other down.


Under pressure maybe or just introverted or anti-social.


As long as there is leftism... the idea that the rulers should make our economic decisions instead of the people making them.... we need a resistance to it.


VPSOs , CHAs, all live their jobs without respite from the demands of the public. Village life is stressful enough without the additional burden of these jobs. Your decisions are constantly questioned , second guessed by "know it alls", village politics or politicians intruding into your efforts. Thankless jobs although needed, still underappreciated or respected in far too many villages.


How is it legal, you must wonder, for the government to arrest and detain people who have never been proven to have committed a crime? In no way should anyone need to visit a person never convicted of a crime in jail. Lets's solve that problem first.


WRONG!

Germany and France are the ones pushing for closer European integration.


OH God. It has nothing to do with Trump.  You're touched.


More ineptness under the incumbent mayor who chooses to flaunt his ethically challenged attitude in the faces of the citizens of HNL all while falsely selling himself as a compassionate mayor of the people.

Caldwell needs to be shown the door this November!


Oh how I wish this would come true!


Clearly, you've never had a hand in running a business or you'd know how ridiculous your comments are.  Where in fairyland that you reside is money freely available to throw at all the thing you think/hope/wonder would improve a business.  My guess is you're one of the clowns in government who've dreamed up the problem, and then devised worthless solutions without the slightest understanding of the damage caused and the threats to the very existence of the companies you slag today.  Do you think people in business are stupid or obtuse?

PS.  If McGuinty and Wynne hadn't created the problem, they'd be no need for the government to throw money at fixing them.  Taxpayer money used remedy the damage the Liberals caused to private businesses.  A pox on all of you.


Actually, they need to get on top of things and be ready to take custody of them on their release date.


The gun debate in America was settled in 1791. Plenty of us remember and we won’t let anyone replace the horror of one maniac with something worse. It’s ok to cry, but the 2nd is not up for debate.


The problem is that the gun grabbers have a credibility problem because they keep posing solutions to a problem that doesn't work, has never worked in the past and won't work going forward. With over 300 million guns in this country if gun owners were the problem we would know it for sure by now. What you think is possible is to pass a law requiring that nobody to break the law and it doesn't work that way and never will. There will always be criminals regardless of how many laws are on the books. Not to mention that there are simply too many of us who are not going to give away our constitutional rights so left-wingers can 'feel' better. When it became obvious that nobody died at Sandy Hook and our government was using it to manipulate public opinion against guns... I became resolute in my commitment to keep mine. If the government doesn't want to take our guns then please explain Sandy Hook to me... Glad to see the people responsible lining up to go to jail.


If you didn't watch why are you commenting? As a low information poorly informed voter it would be in your best interest to actually watch and learn. Your comment nicely sums up why all of your posts are so ridiculous. Just trying to help......


Well, you must care.

You're here on the Sens win article, you're reading the posts, and you're commenting.


"I suspect he's forgotten"

Can't forget what he doesn't know.  But with what he doesn't know he says "with great surety"!


Um..she identifies as a middle aged Korean man.


Have you considered moving to Germany? You can feel the love directly there.


Marc Bergevin will look at Nashville's success to date and say, "See, I told you. Anything can happen when you make the playoff. A number 8 seed in the final."


If you're a rational thinker, and not a hypocrite you do not belong to any religious or cult group that you do not have a common interest.  Being 'GAY' isn't comparable to  belonging to a religious group, going to a meeting for  a specific reasons unrelated to a  political party doctrine should not compromise you.   Religious groups 'cults' are asking you to accept their dogma, it's 'blind faith'  disagreeing is not a choice in religion.


The State should learn how to pay their bills first. Prove themselves to be competent. Before asking (Stealing) for more cash from it's people.  CUT EVERYTHING first. Gain our trust, Then ask nicely (No scare tactics) for help for programs that we want to spend money on.


... 10 miles on a bike is mamby pamby, no problem.  Leave a change of clothes at work, use showers either at work or get a health club membership near where you work.  I used to do it all the time ... Chicago is much more spread out than Denver, I used to ride from near Shaumburg downtown to the Wrigley Building and back.  Lake Michigan winds can be fierce, but I was tougher!  ;)


Nothing they do now will bring my friend Cynthia back. Better to spend their time and money getting him the help he needs and others like him who use violence as a solution.


You're either an idiot or lying. My sister is retired on very small Social Security payments and on Medicare, and even paying for extra Medicare insurance  and doesn't even come close to paying $500 a month.

 How does the ACA hurt you when you're on Medicare, dumbass?

Why do Trumpnuts always lie?


With the epidemic we're facing it wouldn't surprise me if they were in the minority. Yes of course consideration is due those that suffer from chronic pain and in some cases it's for life but there are better options than Oycontin. Through lies and deceit the majority of this epidemic we face today can be directly traced back to Oxycontin.


So the so called experts are wrong again as they said that other drug use would decline when pot was made legal and the opposite has happened.


These two students were no longer in their care


"Sarah Palin's weekend speech in Wisconsin was totally bizarre "
All of her speeches are totally bizarre. Every last one of them.


It is WaPo, they don't write anything detrimental to the leftist cause


Speaking of lack of empathy for a fellow human being...Gigi,  you definitely have that one nailed. The hypocrisy is astounding.


Ibn Bailey is exactly right except misses the fact you know nothing about dogs or dog fighting either.


When you look at the meager savings of Canadian, it is the poverty that is being deferred.


Spreading information - when it's accurate information, like this is - means spreading facts. Sounds like a good thing.


Never that I would see the day that such a headline would be newsworthy, but then again just below it, the article on being paid an hour a week to go home during the day and have sex with your wife.  Times they are a changing, enjoying it.


Liberal ethics?......isn't that an oxymoron?


A voice common sense is refreshing.


So Sen. Don Meredith in addition to being a married man, with children of his own and an ordained Minister and 50 yrs.of age at the time when he was seducing a child 33 years younger than himself thinks such behavior should be ignored does he? I personally think that he should be taking a long hard look at his personnel moral beliefs and take the opportunity to resign from the various positions of authority within the community and use the free time to truly reflect and pray about his obvious lack of proper moral grounding.


You left out the part where Peace Collective stole their Toronto vs. Everybody design from Detroit vs. Everybody


"A lot of U.S. voters came to believe Ms. Clinton represented corruption in politics. The charge was hugely overblown, and relative to Mr. Trump, who loudly celebrates his conflicts of interest, it was absurd. But..."
BUT...we're going to talk about it as if it's a real thing anyway, as if it's rational when it's absurd, as if you can plan for the absurd rationally.
Clinton was well respected 6 years ago (remember the meme of her in shades?). A relentless character assassination program run by the Republican party since 2012 (Benghazi! emails!)  an absurd misinformation campaign by the tea party right (Murder! Pizzagate! Emails!) and propaganda targeting by the neo-nazi right (Corrupt! Guns! Muslims!  Woman!  Emails!) defeated Hillary Clinton.
She faced a concerted propaganda attack from all sides, including Congress and FBI, and she lost because she couldn't deal with it. Perhaps no one could. But fundraising? If that's what you learned, you didn't learn much I fear.


Find out what country she and/or her ancestors are from, and ban travel from those countries!


Never heard of such an incident, however there was an "atheist" recently who did something that evil!

"Friends said on Facebook that in recent years, Mr. Kelley had become vocally anti-Christian, to the point where many stopped communicating with him. His Facebook page, which has been deleted, listed that he liked a number of atheist groups.
“He was always talking about how people who believe in God were stupid and trying to preach his atheism,” one of his Facebook friends, Nina Rosa Nava, posted on the site, saying she unfriended him because of it."

I understand your not wanting to spend your tax dollars supporting illegal activity, I hope you can understand my not wanting to watch any more of my friends 20-year-old sons die of endocarditis because they shot drugs with a dirty needle..


teachers need a pay cut or boot them out - sickening


The "educated" now veer further left due to indoctrination. I wouldn't care but they are using taxpayers money to perpetuate this cancer. Not wahhabism but certainly in the ballpark.


....um "another empty losing season?" Denver hasn't had a losing season since 4-12 in 2010. Before that it was 2007. And before that 1999. Poor guy, you've had to endure three losing seasons in the past 18 years.

Happens, dude. Be disappointed in the coaches and the players -- but don't make it more than it its: a team without a starting QB and a piss-poor offensive line.

(Okay, you can add questionable HC and coaching staff to the list.)


If you must tax, tax the tourists.  Do you really think they'll stop coming to Waikiki because of a few extra dollars?  No.  Same as when the no smoking reg was adopted.  Naysayers guaranteed that Asian tourists would avoid Waikiki since they were known to be heavy smokers.  Never happened as tourists adapted and Waikiki business is booming. Best course of action or inaction is to not increase any tax and let the rail project just fade away into oblivion.


Dick being the whiny snowflake.


You are learning from Kurgan!


Like a never ending deficit, my grand children thank Trudeau for that burden; not!!!


From Canadian taxpayers who are fed up with Clark government corruption. Some of those same taxpayers also donate to First Nation's legal costs.


if You’re sick of it then you should return home.


can't remember the last time I needed to change a tire.  How old are your tires?


Apparently Gattis doesn't get it.  If she wasn't good enough for the Legislature, she's most certainly no good for any other office.  A public servant like Gattis who had no qualms with telling Alaskan seniors to move out of Alaska if they felt they couldn't afford to live here deserves the Republican Party to dump money down her black hole.


Alright, let me try this another way.

Since you get to reject church teaching on abortion, marriage, sexual ethics, authority in the Church, and pretty much everything else that makes the Catholic Church, well, Catholic, and still call yourself Catholic, do I get to reject Catholic social teaching and still call myself Catholic?

Do I have the exact same rights as you do--when it comes to picking and choosing--or do only liberals get to dissent?


bs, conservatives are for everyone, profits and jobs, the ndp are for government ,, , take your pick, i take jobs and profits any day as you should too.. its what works, it is what has made alberta prosperous all those 4o years under torys.


No, we're in the American West, where plenty of people do say "y'all".


Nope... a lot of the financing comes from outside. We are able to export the financing to tourists and the feds... locals on Oahu only pay about 20 dollars a month.


I honestly can't speak to how it feels to not work, but I can't imagine it feels great. I know that there are truly lazy people who think the rest of us owe them a living, but there are also people who can't work or who are underemployed who are really unhappy about it. Its not a perfect world. There will always be free-loaders and we will always have to pay for them. I think we need to go back to the days of workfare - if a person is able, they should have to work for the local government in some capacity in order to keep getting their money and food stamps. Even if they have to pick up garbage off the side of the road or visit the elderly at the Pioneer Home, they should have to do something.


The NFL accepts money from the military to "Honor The Troops".

Yeah, you could say I have no respect for the league. This kind of stuff, added to their belly-crawling on every social and political issue, is going to be the end for them. TV ratings and attendence are way down, to the point networks will have to refund advertisers' money. Poor concession sales will hit the owners. Once people begin to find other amusements, the death-spiral will start, and the players will take it in the wallet as well.


Some of out bishops should listen to a Catholic pro-choice politician, who should have the courage to explain to them the logic behind Roe. Law is about the reasoning and the precidents, not the result.  Federal supremacy in equal protection is not going away (which also gives us gay marriage), nor should it.  The cultural warrior bishops (and USCCB staff) have put Republican coalition poltiics above truth, which is bad for the Church and the bishops, who most of us simply ignore at election time.  As for who should be elected president of the conference, the obvious choice is Cupich.


She has nothing to contribute to the public good.  The NDP needs to find someone with authenticity and credibility.


More unsupported lies.


I agree with you about the level of discourse of some people, not just here, but on other sites that I sometimes browse but on which I do not comment.  It is rather appalling.  One wonders where they were ever allowed to speak or write in such a manner.


You must not be hateful of a religion that is hateful of you.

Understood?!?


I totally understand.  Your job was to insure that our enemies knew that any threat against us or our interests would result in their destruction.  They also did not want us to use them.  Thanks for protecting us.


It's complicated because then his parents would drive out. Hey LW2, don't blame your brother for your parent's choices, and don't try to control your parents.


A drunk teenager is not to blame, it's always easier to blame someone else. And when they say the lawsuit is not for the money, it's for the money.


The hacking premise is baseless. According to you, who's to say that hackers haven't already hacked 'secure' government networks because you said they wouldn't leave any clue.  Well in fact they have been hacked; the US military, the Pentagon, IRS, NASA,... also Wall St banks, ...it's a very long list, and you think the State Dept isn't vulnerable too? So was it much of a stretch for Comey to say her account was probably hacked given the track record elsewhere ? And why speculate without any clue/evidence upon which to base it? I guess it provides grist for other speculators. What's it called when conclusions or accusations are rendered without evidence?  Well of course there's Fox News, but everyone knows they're a comedy troupe.


" 'cumulative environmental'  impacts of shellfish operations across the state". What a bunch of hogwash this suit is. Why? Because prior to man mass harvesting any shellfish bed, so-called shellfish beds were so full of shellfish that they were packed in shell to shell because of the high intensity of natural shellfish beds. If one visits shellfish beds where shellfish are not harvested, there is clear empirical evidence of such ultra high intensity of shellfish population. Secondly, on subject matter of "use of nets, plastic tubes and other gear pose challenges to birds and other wildlife", presently law suit cannot provide any empirical evidence whatsoever, but only speculative opinion. Such hyper-environmentalists are destroying free enterprise solely on baseless premises.  "Fake science"


Respectfully KZINGA, Canada's system is so bad, only the 48,000 plus rich can afford to escape the rationing of waiting, and the poorer quality of Canadian medicine, as that 48,000+ rich annually flock to the Untied States for treatment. We are the most advanced nation in the world in medicine, leading the next 5 socialist nations combined in advanced medicine.

Why? Because as Canada, England and others learned, it costs money and must be micromanaged and rationed! Experimental advanced treatments not allowed, go to America if you want that!

Socialized medicine is terrible, it's why they are so far behind America in advanced medicine, and the quality offered here. Ask their rich who can afford to escape their systems, why they come to America if the medicine there is so great!


If her constituents voted her in as a Republican then she should continue with the party and run as a democrat in the next election.
This is a spoiled little brat who needs to grow up and start serving the people not herself. With antics such as this how can she be trusted ?


Transgenderism and other politically correct stupidity will be the downfall of Western civilization.

Sorry if this offends the minority, but most normal people are tired of this nonsense.


Really, R.D.?  Since when have you used nuance or intimation?


Wilders came in second place with five more seats than the last election. The biggest loser was the Labour Party (Canadian equivalent to the left of the NDP). The results speak for themselves but Saunders is simply twisting the results to support a narrative aligned with his personal bias. Wilders was never going to win and even if he did win the most seats, every party has refused to cooperate with him, meaning he had no chance of forming government. Turkey's recent experience with an Islamist government highlights the regressive nature of political Islam - it is fundamentally incompatible with modern secular liberalism. Until European leaders reconcile the cultural regression within their societies, the political discussion will only polarize further. Europe needs to have an honest debate about immigration, integration, and cultural segregation because the issues facing Europe aren't a secret and pretending they don't exist will only make the situation worse.


With all of the craziness going on right now, I don't think this is a great time to initiate this foot patrol.  If sicko's are ambushing law enforcement officers in their vehicles, these officers walking down the street are an open target, especially now when it is dark much of the time.


Fools and their money are easily parted; but fools with other people's money are even easier to be parted!


RG:  "Eventually she determined that Eugene attorney Greg Hunt was the trustee for the Maxine M. Childers Special Needs trust, and in May 2015 she sent him a letter explaining the problem. Hunt called her and said he would take care of it, she said.

So , no comment on the observation comparing the 2 warming step changes then.No explanation?
No explanation on how CO2 would warm sea water?
How can it ,when I.R. from CO2 can only penetrate sea water by a few microns.No one argues that.
Solar radiation penetration is measured in meters, and is what warms the water.
Anybody who ever had a swimming pool knows you need sunny days to warm it up, after the sky clouds over  ,in a day or so ,it cools off again ,not to forget the heat loss at night.
here is a lecture from Columbia U.
"Solar Radiation: Much of the direct and diffuse solar short wave (less than 2 micros, mostly in the visible range) electromagnetic radiation that reaches the sea surface penetrates the ocean (the ocean has a low albedo, except when the sun is close to the horizon), heating the sea water down to about 100 to 200 meters, depending on the water clarity."

Agree 100%.


In order, Young is corrupt and an embarrassment to Alaska, TSA is a ridiculous infringement of the rights guaranteed by the fourth amendment. FDA standards would be nice if someone actually enforced them. The highways in Alaska are all built by the State DOT with a serious lack of oversight or accountability. The Coast Guard is a worthy organization, NOAA research?, a lot could be cut there. Medicaid....?, real doctors still accept that?. As a real veteran, might I suggest you can take all your ozone belching aircraft and your military welfare troops, and go save Texas from the Russians or whatever imagined enemy that the hawks can contrive.


Dont make me giggle. Ah ok im giggling


I did.

Apparently you did not.  Please read it, and tell me where I ever said what you claim I did.


Four things things:
1. KPMG must be fired from all government audits - for ever.
2. The Guptas should be charged with tax evasion and fraud. Jail for ALL involved would be appropriate.
3. The Freestate ANC officials involved should be charged with fraud and summarily fired, along with ALL of those outside the Freestate who are equally implicated.
4. The ANC musr be held liable for the fraudulent transactions and be made to pay back every cent that was misappropriatet and all court costs.


Vaccine injuries and deaths can and do occur.  Parents know this because they are on the front lines in the public school systems worried that their child/children will be the unfortunate recipients of vaccine injury that forever damages their child.  Health Canada tells us vaccines are an option. Our Constitution puts medical interventions are in the purview of individuals and parents.  If vaccines are so unbelievably safe, even though the product monographs and CDC clearly state otherwise, why does Canada still NOT provide a no fault Vaccine Damage Compensation Plan?


For goodness sake, have you even read The Handmaid's Tale? Where is MW getting the similarity to Islam? There is none. She started off with a twisted suggestion that rather than the environment causing sterilization, progressive women themselves may have pushed childbearing out of their reach by working rather than planning families. A thought, but the whole thing deteriorated after that.


I bet it sucks.


We are about two years out from the next election, no one will remember this poll, but people will remember the payout.


I'm "okay with giving them choices", yet you actually have no idea how I would "argue for people to be executed for "child" sexual assault".
I'm guessing you also have no idea how anyone else would argue, so why do you claim to know?


Yes ! the same recognition as in the failure of Meech Lake in 1987;
la reconnaissance du Québec comme « société distincte » au sein du Canada /
the recognition of Québec as a "distinct society" within Canada-

Ask the people in the UK if practicing TNR for over half of a century has reduced their cat populations. Go ahead, ask them. :-)


I think we all agree with Mr Mbalula - whites are minorities in this country and we do have capital.


Someone finally got it! The beers are on me. "Kim" was just his nickname. His father, St.John, thought he resembled the character from Rudyard Kipling.


How come these guys are only going for $7million per capita ? Isn't the going rate now $10.5 million for hurt feelings ?


So you have no problem with China supplying arms to any country that has issues with the US? Be interesting to see what would happen in N Korea.
But hey at least the US is all buddy buddy with Russia now! Probably on of the few countries that hasn't faced his attacks.


It was started by a corporate scheister and now it's meeting a corporate scheister's demise.  Too bad, so sad.


We are 300 billion in debt, and the budget is balanced through creative accounting. And the government is spending billions more on new social programs, which would be difficult to cancel when another party wins the election in 2018.

If this is not vote buying, what is?


And another comment by a man who does not get that own guns, hunting, serving in the war zone are not exclusive to " conservatives".  Your comment is an illogical word salad, nothing more, except it helps to keep this nation divided.


It starts with the coaches.


Mark  and Michelle: Please refer to such an unfortunate incident using the more neutral and accurate term "crash." To call it an "accident" suggests there was no comprehensible cause. As your story indicates, police are not yet sure of the reasons for the crash and are still investigating possible factors. I realize you have no control over what Ms. Waters said, but you editors should categorize the story under "Crashes." Thank you. http://crashnotaccident.com/


Excellent way to get the bugs out following his injury.  Now, he is comfortable facing the speed of a regular game situation and still perform.  Imua Marcus.


And who helped you?


Seriously are you mentally ill? Show some respect and stop with making this about politics. Have you no shame.


Sooo... you pay a few hundred dollars to get Internet, TV and phone from Bell. And this makes you upset. Did you think for a second how good a deal you're getting?

Ever went to a live show recently? Compare anything live with TV - TV will seem quite a bargain: a family of 4 going to a movie will set you back roughly $43 (assuming two kids younger than 13)... compare that with the most expensive Bell package - at $140 after including HBO. You get 4k, a ton of content, and HBO for less than taking you family to the movies once a week.

I guess you never thought of this, though... After all, if you'd think about it, you'd lose a reason to be angry, right?

By the way, Bell is providing 4k - that's improvment in service quality. Bell's customer service improved significantly in the last 5 years as well... and I got a thing in the mail where they told me they are bringing fiber to the home in my neighboorhood by Dec as well.

Some people just cannot be pleased...


That's surely a substantive comment.....

btw - trolling?  You who claim to "visit" sooooo many sites have the audacity to accuse others of trolling?  *lol*


We actually had a pretty good party on the patio outside the office. The very thin overcast didn't really mess it up. I did get a decent photo with my phone.

I did think we'd get a little more darkness and be able to see stars. Glad the trip to Wyoming paid off. I had friends up there and they're all quite jazzed.


Enforcement is paid for by taxes. Oh yeah, that's an evil word in Colorado.


Do you think road stats are neutral for Rockies players?  Most agree that they are not due to the difficult adjustment coming from elevation to sea level.  Perhaps home/road splits aren't the best indicator for Rockies players.  The coaches and managers who vote seem to think so.


The arrival of the Haitians has made it clear that there is a flaw in our immigration system. If they had arrived at an airport they would have been denied entry.  But because they crossed by land they are admitted, pending an investigation/decision.  That strikes me, and most other Canadians as bizarre, and wrong.  To be opposed to allowing this to continue is hardly racist.  It is supporting fixing a problem with our immigration system.


Junior Americans, and you call others bigoted?  All you do is call Canadians names, 20 that I have counted so far, with nothing to back it up.  You define bigotry.  Where is your proof Trudeau actually cut spending significantly, he has been in power less than a year?  Recently we agreed to send troops to the Russian front on behalf of the USA to help us meet our commitments.  Most of the wars Canada has to help with are due the the incessant meddling of the USA in other countries affairs.   Not clear how you think Canada cannot defend itself.  We are not generally concentrated in huge cities that are easily devastated and we actually have an open minds and can think on our feet.  Maybe some  could occupy small portions of Canada but you would be surprised how well we defend ourselves.  A greater portion of Canadians could survive in an emergency situation than the same percentage of Americans.  If 7-11 and Macdonalds went away a great portion of Americans would perish.


Yes, immigrants who live, work and pay Canadian taxes on all of their income are preferable to immigrants who don't make a full commitment in these respects. However, our overall immigration rates are too high and not a net economic benefit to the country. Yes, I know this view is contrary to myriad government organizations and pro-immigration business panels.

See Policy Options Canada's report, which finds no such benefit from present or proposed immigration levels.  IRPP isn't a "right-wing" think tank.
http://policyoptions.irpp.org/fr/magazines/novembre-2016/how-does-increasing-immigration-affect-economy/

Also see Martin Collacott's piece from fall 2016.  Former ambassador in Asia, speaks fluent Mandarin, member of the Fraser Institute.   He's a controversial figure, but his views on this topic make sense.

Except he never bothered to find out if the animal was dead or injured. Would you want an injured bear roaming your area?


Some days one just needs to give it a rest.  Memorial Day is not about president Trump or anyone's hatred, dislike, contempt, or whatever for him or any other politician.  It is about the dead and those they left behind. Good job RG for recognizing this.


Until everyone gets off the unrealistic pledges that got them elected any compromise to solve this long standing problem is impossible.


Thats good. Wrong country.


Imbecile!


Sadly, what Freeland had been falsely alleging to be "Russian disinformation" about her family's Nazi history actually turned out to be Canadian / Freeland disinformation about Russia, and Freeland's own family-history.
I find it revolting that Freeland would choose to sabotage Canada's relations with Russia, and commit libel against Russia and journalists who did their job in good faith, just to try to hide unflattering information about her family. Those worsened relations with Russia could lead to conflicts where Canadian soldiers die - with worsening situations all stemming from a false pretext of her personal propaganda. Her choice to cover herself by lying about another country and setting in motion xenophobia, mistrust, antagonistic attitudes is the height of irresponsibility for anyone - let alone a Canadian diplomat, who is also Foreign Minister. And on top of it, her false allegation is a betrayal of all Canadians, and the government she is supposed to be serving.


What he said is very true and we are now seeing it at a national level.  When it it done, hopefully sooner than later, the Dems will have to come in and clean it up like they have always done.


Harry Crawford, former representative, let's make that clear so that we don't try to obscure the facts.
The poor guy has been running against conservatives in just about every election lately and has yet to resign to the fact that Alaskans in his district do not support his tax and spend. In other words they prefer a more fiscally conservative approach to government spending.
To obscure the fact, to obfuscate, that most Alaskans support the house budget proposal is a delusion, his delusion.
If what Crawford says is true, why is it Alaskans that make up the Mat-Su Borough are considering enacting a broad based sales tax to fund the rising cost of education? Why do Alaskans in the Kenat Peninsula Borough use a broad based sales tax? This is certainly not most, or majority of Alaskans. Why do most Alaskans disagree with The ASD of the need for an income tax where Anchorage pays? Why not a sales tax instead? Harry, you're the one trying to obfuscate the truth!


To me, this is where the Trumpian approach fails, but also where exclusion of grandparents and grand children really hurts their argument.  The problem they try to address is terrorism.  I agree with dealing with terrorism.  DEAL WITH IT!  Vet each applicant for admission to the US carefully.  Really carefully.  Investigate.
 Question, Research.  Come up with identifying flags for terrorist tendencies that are objectively real, and check carefully for them.  BUT, don't assume that a person, by accident of birthplace or lineage, is a terrorist.    And, we cannot allow the executive to identify a single repugnant trait in one individual, or a group of individuals, and then PRESUME it as to all who share the same trait.  If so, whomever is in executive power at any given time need only assert a given action by a single individual is a "national security" risk, and then apply it to an entire like nationality, or race, or religion, or gender.  That is the problem with the travel ban.


This is mansplaining. You arent even addressing the topic of sexual assault and are hiding behind accusations and flipped words.

As @jk_rowling said on twitter:
The men rushing to tell us all that they talk about women exactly the way @realDonaldTrump did in his tape seem to think they're helping.


Bull. Liberals and conservatives have always disagreed about which facts are more important and what to do about them. But this era is the first time in the history of the free world that a major political movement has declared their opinions to be equal to facts and reality itself to be subservient to their fantasies and fears. Never before has a leader of the free world declared that 1 million is more than 3 million. Never before has a majority of either side declared that gun deaths are more common in Europe than America and dismissed the facts that disprove that claim as fraudulent purely on the basis of conflict with their prejudice.
What's happening now has never in history ever happened before in free countries. This is the kind of lies that previously were impossible to spread outside of absolute, totalitarian states.
This is a textbook example of something completely and utterly unprecedented.

There is no equivalent anywhere. On the left or even the older right.


The max is 35%, though I'm not 100% if that's what we claimed. I think it is means tested to some extent. It helps at the end of the year, to be sure, but for folks who don't pay quarterly and live check to check it's not much solace.


There is no Political will for a crash in the housing market  - prices drop
the decision makers (politicians) all have houses

it is in their interest to keep prices high
and that includes leftist politicians

forget about Social Justice blah blah
even a leftist politician likes that his house is now worth 1 million in Toronto
affordable housing - OK as long as I have my million dollar home


Dont forget to blame trump. Hes a hater doncha know!!


predict the research will show that mj has limited medical uses.  right now, many are claiming they need mj for medical reasons and the physicians are prescribing it because there are no data to say otherwise.  with limited medical uses, medical mj will not be profitable since the number of patients that need mj will be substantially reduced.  also, the research will show that mj is just like alcohol, it only makes one high without any other benefit.  hence, there will be a reversal of states allowing unlimited use of mj.


Unfortunately, Andi, there is no good news for wildlife.   A few years ago the increasing tick infestation destroyed fully half the moose population along the US-Canada border in the east and in moose populations throughout New England.   This is global warming at work, and it is going to get much, much worse.


Have you heard of the Breaux Commission (appointed by Pres. Clinton)? It wasn't Republicans who killed the proposals made by it. And most GOP plans on Social Security have essentially been based on those proposals.


From the article: "the federal government to cut the increase in the transfer from 6 per cent to a minimum of 3 per cent annually is unsustainable."
==============

Actually it is the exact opposite, it was the 6% increase that was unsustainable, by definition.

Government revenues grow, over the long term, in proportion to GDP.  You can get some brief one-time bumps up in the short term, but in the long time revenue always grows in proportion to GDP.  The old Paul Martin Liberals plan was to fix increases at 6% regardless of GDP growth.  With (nominal) GDP growth averaging 3 to 5% in recent it was, by definition, unsustainable.

The Conservative plan to increase health transfers proportionally to GDP increase is the ONLY possible sustainable path.


What an excellent article. Thank you.

"Indeed, the third part of Veritatis Splendor, entitled “Lest the Cross of Christ Be Emptied of Its Power,” warns precisely against the view that the demands of the moral life are too difficult and cannot be lived with the help of God’s grace. Chapter 8 of Amoris Laetitia appears to be exactly what St. John Paul II had in mind in writing Veritatis Splendor. It does appear to empty the cross of Christ of its power."

Discernment, accompaniment and mercy ought not lead to abandoning trust in Christ's grace. There's something very Lutheran about all this.


Cosmic,  you  are a sad, bitter individual.     Such cheap shots only reveal how miserable you are.


Read the actual article by Lefsrud and Meyers. in Organizational Studies.  The people that responded to the APEGA survey that they analyzed  were 84% engineers,  15.6% geologists and geophysicists, and 0.4% technologists.  BTW, this was a self selecting survey so the results can in no way be used to claim representation of any larger group.  Given that oil sands dwarf all other mining considerations in Alberta with coal the next biggest, and given it was a self selecting survey I think the author's conclusion that they were analyzing people in the petroleum industry are pretty valid, but there could also be some respondents from the coal industry.


Don't laugh.


The world would be much better off if these  guys were all we had to worry about,


Everyone drives on highways, gets treated at hospital, and does all those other things. But only some of us pay for it. In Canada, 30% of the population pays no income tax. In fact, if you divide the population in half, the upper half pay 96% of all income tax. The lower half - just 04%.


hey,  it's not like the Broncos were out there saying they only like troops that didn't get captured,  or anything.


Cutting to the chase, 'she 'feels' she should be rewarded with some M O N E Y'  Now, feel better?


And we all lose when words cease to mean anything and language is distorted for effect, "War" on the environment?? Any sense that this might be an objective. factual article on the environment went out the window when I read the title of the piece.


A tax will not resolve anything other that give Ottawa more money to spend on Mp pensions. Regulation might be a better way to go. Ban the sale of big gulp sized sodas from convenience stores and fast food restaurants. Put a calorie cap on slushees and fruit drinks.


What a poisonous article.


It's so refreshing to know someone is just as corrupt as Kathy Wynne.

Political corruption in Canada is beginning to approach the level present in the USA.

Beginning, but moving fast.


I think you are the one that needs to check your facts with ADF&G.  Much of the ADF&G Budget as a whole comes from the legislature but the vast majority of this goes to fisheries.  Wildlife division has had $2-7 Million in GF money for the last decade or so which is a small percentage of It's budget.  Prior to that it was self funded through license and PR money.  The new license increase was intended so all GF money could be cut and it would be once again self funded.  The last conversation I had with leadership, they where expecting to loose all GF money withing the next couple years.  The new license and tag fee increase, along with a bounty of Pittman-Robertson Federal money (generated from a tax on sporting goods) will more than make up for loosing all GF money.  There may be a few small things that are not eligible for License or PR money but I stand by my statement that Wildlife Division is largely user funded.


Now, what does this say about how well positioned these people are to manage client files that they can't get past their superficial biases even just to select an intern?   If being a lawyer/advocate in an independent firm is about representing clients, isn't this fundamental?


Douglas Card stated: “Would you like to see More, or Fewer, guns on the streets of Eugene?”...
Wouldn’t THAT be an interesting question (posed to Police)?"

The very question is improperly worded, as this same question has been in the past.
I don't think Anyone wants "guns on the street" (except for those Concealed Carry),
but it is always worded like that.


How much are the Ticketmaster fees and other added fees on top of the $16.50 price?

I'm thinking about trying to purchase tickets for the December 31, 2017 (New Year's Eve) game at 2:05 PM.  That is the Chiefs-Broncos game and could be an AFC West deciding match up.

However, it could be extremely cold and snowy in Denver at that time of year and it might be more entertaining to watch on TV.  Those $16.50 (or $8.25 if they go for half price) tickets plus fees would probably be on the top row or near it.


purple?


Doctors and medical students are under too much pressure! Family should not add to that pressure! Very wrong of fathers who don't nurture sons! Reach out! Reach out and touch someone you know you should've reached out to... you fathers! Don't betray family for cheap people who will betray you, when you could've nurtured those who adored you! Father, where are you???


The vast majority of the laity have probably  never heard of 'Amoris Laetitia.'


Over here in the Inland Empire there's a great new festival coming up Sept 8-10. It's called the Tinnabulation Music Festival. Headliners include John Butler Trio, OK Go, American Authors, Frenship, Barns Courtney, Coleman Hell, MISSIO, Coast Modern, & LOLO. It features great regional talent as well including a number of Seattle groups. For a complete list of performers and more information visit their website at tinnabulation.com Great way to see summer out and welcome the fall season. Hope to see you there !!


Yup...it's Ala Moana Lite.


Defend America as a sovereign nation.
Just say NO to the LOST !


Why would anyone but an investor care how much Molson beer Coors sells to Canadians?  Just another successful Canadian company mismanaged by a U.S. conglomerate into extinction.  Canadians are going to local craft brewers in droves because the product is far, far better.


A Muslim is someone who follows or practices Islam; so if I'm walking down the street how do you know you should ignore me?  This whole kerfuffle has nothing to do with race and everything to do with some mis-guided attempt to keep the country safe.  It's sad we are so easily distracted from the real problems we face.


*IF* we don't have a recession prior to the end of the 2018/19 fiscal year they will probably be able to balance the budget that year without any meaningful action or effort.

Given the solid fiscal footing Canada's Federal government has had for almost 20 years now it is actually very easy to balance a budget when at the peak of a global economic cycle.  Even if we have a $20B structural deficit (roughly where we stand today) we'll still have a balanced budget in a couple years *IF* the next global recession holds off.

That is a BIG 'if' though, and our government has virtually zero control over the state of the global economy.


Mueller,

I recall some discussion in our neighborhood years ago re jitneys, please cite what I "proposed" and feel free to ridicule. I'll be happy to respond if you can provide some documentation.

_"a considerable faction of the progressives in Eugene is you-all (there goes the ‘folksy’ thang) walk far more in lock-step than the Wehrmacht"_ -- Well, that reference to Nazis isn't folksy, it's one of those inept and inapt analogies you seem to rely upon.

But, in fact, the so-called "progressives" who are _supporting_ SW-SAZ (Piercy, Zelenka, sustainability commission members, 1K of Oregon, etc.) are the ones who seem to have drunk the Kool-Aid and repeat nothing but the "up-not-out", "density or sprawl" kind of slogans you presented in your piece.

Now let's get another fact straight: “the greater good involves keeping our wonderful city _within its current boundaries_ …” -- Mueller. "Exactly why are the _current boundaries_ optimal?" -- Conte

" 'Nuff said, hombre." ;-)


Mulroney helped craft the horrible NAFTA deal int he first place... the fact that Trudeau is working with him hardly inspires confidence.


In todays Govt. overreaching climate you don't know if A pollster is setting you up to be A 'friend' of the Govt. or A 'target' to be investigated!


"Canadian law identifies three levels of sexual assault from rape to groping. Is that not good enough for you?"
No.
Not when everything that doesn't involve weapons, direct threats, actual bodily harm, wounding, maiming, disfigurement or endangering a life is just lumped into one category. And especially not when the term "sexual assault" doesn't seem to even be defined in the section of the criminal code making it illegal.
So let me repeat: no three levels is not enough. Not when a stolen kiss and rape are all lumped into the same thing. And these articles show exactly why.


More articles from the elites asking the great unwashed to pay for their crusades for a just society.

Why don't these do gooders fund the costs from their salaries.

These articles are becoming tiresome.


Ideally, you are correct, most people who have jobs shouldn't need Medicaid.  But there are circumstances when full-time  employees who do not make enough in their jobs do need Medicaid.


Okay there is something more here and I suspect she was giving attitude to the border officials. People I used to teach in the United States and did so for a three year period during the school term at a high school military academy. I would have to go to a specified border crossing after having all of my paper work in order and spend the better part of a morning getting things sorted out. The number of times I heard "attitude" was unbelievable - people think they have a "right" to cross the border and they don't. People were turned back because of attitude.

Additional hint: take off you hijab, you can do without it for a few minutes and for God's sake don't wear a niqab or a burka - if you do you are nuts and will be banned for sure.


Some of the ignorant in one of the other threads tried to say this was a gun-free zone, and thus an easy target. Wrong, yet again.


Do you think the loss of jobs had anything to do with the rise in food stamps? How many did Bush start and end with? Whats the % of population on both periods?
Bigger question. If the only way trump can reduce the amount of people on food stamps is to eliminate funding or for the GOP to make draconian requirements then it isn't doing anything positive.
But then again. Aside from your truly conservative wit in playing with names the real truth will come in the next election.


Add this to the list. A serial sexual predator impersonating a POTUS....followed by a rich spoiled frat boy impersonating a POTUS....followed by a closet Muslim and community organizer impersonating a POTUS. None of them are really what we wanted them to be. Donald is not perfect....but his pragmatism will result in a better country.


No I am saying the Mayor, Governor, Prosecutor and State Attorney General have abdicated their duties to the taxpayers of Hawaii.


It is the federal governments immigration policies that have created the housing crisis. Most immigrants land in Vancouver or Toronto, including the over 1 million ten-year visa holders from China, which allows them to live here, buy homes, send their children to school and not pay taxes on their overseas income.


There's nothing wrong with recognizing and admiring Lewis and his past work in civil rights. There's everything wrong with deeming Lewis untouchable and beyond reproach because of his past work. Lewis is not an icon. He's a human with his own set of shortcomings.


You think reducing carbon emissions for one little village is the same as the whole country? You are trying to compare apples and oranges.

Unless of course this village had heavy industry, an oil industry, car manufacturing, etc etc...


JuJuBean-  I asked a social worker why women go back to men who beat them, and in the case in which we were  both involved, the woman actually married the man she put in prison because of his abuse of her.  She said that they feel that they do not have any alternative, or that this is the best deal that they can get.  It is profoundly disturbing.  2020 will mark 100 years of American women being able to vote in national elections, and this type of incident, in which they return to the abuser,  is one reason it took them so long to get the vote.  Sad.


As a result of his lack of judgment, poor political instinct and flawed values Mr. Morneau has proven to be one of the worst finance ministers and should resign. Clearly by avoiding Queation Period he knows this is this case. Stop delaying and show some respect for the position you hold and the Canadian people apologize yourself and resign.


It is possible to love someone without endorsing their lifestyle.  Replace LGBT with alcoholics or kleptomaniacs and your argument does not really make sense.  God loves us, and because he loves us he encourages us to rise above our sin.

"Alcoholics and kleptomaniacs are as God made them and He loves all of their human-ness, including their need for alcohol and theft. Alcoholics and kleptomaniacs have a whole whale of a lot of other aspects to their personhood than their need for alcohol and theft - there are some wonderful people out there who's "wonderfulness" is ignored because they are alcoholics or kleptomaniacs and seek to drink an excessive amount of alcohol and shoplift."


Insurance through work: $600 per MONTH.  Deductible $2500 EACH person per year.
Coverage to a physician or clinic: "have met your deductible?"  No.  "That will be $235 for this visit".  Visit= 10 minutes.  Profit to healthcare: $1410 PER HOUR.  I have a couple of bad health issues.  I can't afford to get them tended to, let alone the medications.  OH! Dental: $150 per MONTH.  Coverage after $1200 deductible?  10%  Yep........


Agree. I can't see any good coming from this. Affected people who really wanted to go to America will now come to resent the place. The "bad guys" in the middle east will be able to hold this up as proof that America hates them. Good for recruiting  ... so stupid, it makes my head hurt.


No doubt they are not at present. Fees should go up dramatically.


No way. George Foreman and his "George Foreman Grill" went on to make him a lot of money. More money than he ever made in boxing.  As of date, he has made over $250 million from his fat reducing grill sales. I think he simply wants to punch SS in the face.  For free.


What did he do that was any good?  A failing health insurance program; unresolved conflicts with our greatest foes; huge drop-out of people in the workforce; wasted government dollars on belly-up green energy companies, promoting gender ideology nonsense, etc...  I don't want to debate the issue, except to say that these points are at best arguable, and just saying, "He did a great job" without further examination because he is Black would be more racist than making the substantive arguments against his policies.  So Trump is de facto racist because he criticizes Obama's policies and has a history of questioning Obama's birthplace (which, of course, remains debatable).  Sad.


Na, not just California, I've been reading your post here in Colorado, definitely proving that fruits, nuts and morally confused cavemen are in other parts of the country too.


Agreed that Hawaii once had the opportunity to do something other than be a tourism harlot.  Like for you and your family, that moment has passed.


What is the consequence for ISIS continuing their Religious War??? #MAGA


Actually, he went to a military prep school, not one of the service academies or senior military colleges. Huge difference.


Are you getting tired of all the federal subsidies and tax free living up here?


The web site for this film also put up a list of pretty much every touring kennel in Canada and Alaska. Visitors to the site were encouraged to write letters to these kennels and admonish them for their abusive practices. None of the kennels, with the exception of Krabloonik, had ever been investigated for, or charged with, animal cruelty.
Some of those kennels are not even in operation anymore. One is just down the road from me. The owners and dogs are retired and are just enjoying geriatric runs.
This list was quickly removed but not before hundreds of screen shots were taken. When those letters arrive, and they probably will, it will make for a nice pile of evidence in the ensuing libel cases.


What about showers in a women's locker room where there are no individual stalls? I have to admit as a biological female, I would be uncomfortable having to shower next to another who has a penis, balls, and may even have a beard. But I guess if they are female in their mind, that is all that matters, right?


I hope she wins. The Em's are a horrible baseball experience. The whole experience is designed for nothing more than to separate you from every single dollar your have in your pocket.


Why does the President hate our freedom?


Like all dictators, the first thing they try to do is discredit the media. Syria, Russia, Turkey etc and now the U.S. Dictators don't like being held accountable. Sadly, the mindless sheep swallow it up.


hey derek (maiolo), don't let the I-5 corridor valley dwelling tin foil comment group stir dirt with your title. it works for most of us. we  visit the jalopy fest in coburg every year; great time for all ages. many entrants show up every year with buffer in hand. another out of sight, off table fact, many entrants are connected to the seed industry.  anyway, your write up and collin's pics (maybe collin will post more) are super duper.  thank you, both.


In France the French get to decide who is "French."  In Japan the Japanese decide who is "Japanese."  Why don't tribes get to decide who is a member of their tribe?  I think it is their sovereign right to determine their own membership.


The dismal first 100 days of Trump is causing drama at the DOW with 8 straight days of losses and a 9-percent drop at the NYSE. The disarray and chaos at the White House caused by Trump and his amateur hour troupe will see a deepening crack in the country's once lively and active stock surge of the past 10 years. Not good days ahead.


Caribou populations fluctuate - established fact.  This herd's size had dropped significantly from peak, and still appears to be dropping, even if at what the present rate of decline is somewhat in dispute.
The State of Alaska attempts to manage game for a persistently steady, maximum population, even though this is a farming adapted concept not suitable to most wildlife populations.  They justify slaughtering all predators except human in an attempt to achieve this unnatural steady state - but not to merely Limiting human predation [no slaughter of excess human predators required] and disruptions until the population has varifiably stabilized??  As I understand it, the problem perceived by those 'on the ground' with a strong past hx of 1st hand observation over lengthy time is that aircraft over-flight and other such human disturbance may be a strong contributing factor in the decline, or may contribute to slowing the recovery of this herd.  Seems reasonable to test this out.


Justice by our liberal court system is a farce...she only gets 1 yr. in jail term and 5 yrs. probation.   WHAT A JOKE!!! Did she pay off the judge with some of the monies????


Trump warns ‘major conflict’ with North Korea possible, but improbable, for exceptional United States warmongers  seldom attack countries that can, at least partially, defend themselves.


Yeah, well I don't remember rioting in the streets, college students setting cars on fire, a certain entertainer threatening to burn down the White House and more recently a CNN Comedy Host thinking the beheading of Trump would be funny..... If Obama had a lot of mud thrown at him I don't quite remember it to the same extent or as personal....... They even attack Trump's 10 year old son.....


This sounds like racism to me.  Clearly, you have issues.


Misspelling and bad grammar. As I keep saying, it's the secret handshake of the deplorables.


Our Prime Minister spent  private time with Aga Khan, one of the world leaders of Islam.

Our Prime Minister  prays openly in Montreal's Islamic mosques.

He stood up on stage, side by side, with the Muslim Brotherhood a few years back in Toronto.

He hustled, as fast as he could possibly go, to open the floodgates for  35,000 Syrian muslim 'refugees' last year for permanent residency in Canada.

We are seeing  Islamic prayers being allowed  in our public school system in Toronto.

Will Sophia soon start wearing a hijab?


Seems like a rather silly assertion.  Unclear how something like this could be scientifically researched.


Can we expect a crazed Islamist to storm Parliament Hill again, with gun in hand, looking for our leader again?

Bill Clinton already had acted on Area 51 with a Presidential Order prohibiting environmental examination regarding hazardous wastes based on National Security Interests in a Federal Lawsuit.

The $500 connection fee is "the carrot and stick approach" to get you to connect. You think; $500 for a side sewer permit to connect isn't so bad, that is, until the HIDDEN additional cost of connecting that you weren't planning for show up .  Unfortunately, if you already paid your $500 side sewer permit fee and change your mind because you can't afford the connection, you can kiss that $500 goodbye, it's non-refundable.

Do your homework, find out what it will ACTUALLY cost you before you pay your $500.  Ask someone who is planning on connecting what it cost them.  If you have deep pockets, it's your money.  If you are low income or on a fixed income, this sewer could spell financial disaster for you.

Remember, once connected, your monthly fee will continue to increase at the county's whim. That $70 fee is 4 years ahead of schedule, if you think that more connections will reduce the monthly fee, it won't. The "estimated" monthly fee will hit $109.00 or more.   Can you afford it?


So everybody is a bigot if they don't support illegal immigration and to use the resources to help needy Canadians or our indigenous groups, that seems to be the fall back position of the Liberal progressive types that cannot present a good argument as too why we should support this illegal activity. Resorting to the race or bigot card confirms someone has lost an argument.


As should have been plain from the question you quote, I do deny equating hostility with disagreement.  Unfortunately, trolls, and those who applaud their efforts (the "Who in the world" in the quote), make that tacit link, even while trying to explicitly deny it.

You aren't trying to raise three children in this condo are you?  Doubtful if you've already moved through 3 houses.  Houses are good for kids.  Condos are not; they are barely acceptable.  "Go outside and get some exercise. Go ride your trike up and down the hall!"


I think the city has shown it cannot be trusted.  I do not want $1 dollar of my money to be spent on my parks until camping is declared illegal, loitering, defecating in public, drugs etc. are made illegal.  But wait they are illegal--but the law does not matter because the city chooses to not enforce it.  I would love to restore the parks and have children and others feel safe and actually be able to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors but the rights of the non-law abiders are greater than the needs of the people who actually pay for the parks.  Voting no on all of it.  And pretty much any other bond measure.  And frankly I would rather vote yes, but I don't want to encourage more waste and disrespect to the taxpayer.


Twice you have accused me of wanting a dictatorship...seems you cannot even keep your own arguments straight. No, I am not hooked on Kool-Aid. I am diabetic and wouldn't drink the stuff if you offered it to me. No one got me...I don't owe anyone and don't follow any party. So, did you raise as much of a stink when Parnell refused to let the legislators vote on accepting the money? After all, he was making a decision that, according to you, he wasn't supposed to since it should have been left to the legislature. I don't have to explain GCI and Rasmusen's spending...I have addressed this in the past and my disdain for their attempted involvement is somewhere. Your last sentence does not make sense, but then neither do most of your arguments.


Of course he won't be charged. What's a little lying; all in a day's work. Yet the public disses the media, without which so much bad behavior would be quietly swept under the rug.


If I were to extrapolate current Muslim growth rates, which is just over 9% per year, the Muslim population of Canada by 2080 would be a ridiculous 273 million, so obviously I have based the 25-35 million estimate is based on a declining year over year growth rate.

The only question is by how much. But try this: take today's growth rate of 9% and decrease that by 0.1% per year up to 2080, 63 years from now.

You will arrive at 44 million. If you start at 8% growth today, you still see 24 million.

So use your own numbers.. By the way, look at the "natural growth rates" given for the decades preceding the current day. Those numbers of over 2% were due to larger family sizes which is interesting given that Muslim family sizes are approaching twice the non-Muslim Canadian average, even given today's cost of living.

Canada is indeed becoming more expensive. And, by 2080, give or take a few years, it is on track to becoming a Muslim majority nation.


Unfortunately, Fox still leads both.......


Wow, women were present at a meeting.   Makes you want to cry, doesn't it Steve?


Mr Morneau:  If a physician starts work at 35 he/she is ~$150K behind in RRSP space.  How is this a level playing field? You are about to put in place a major disincentive for hard working physicians for working extra hours to save for their retirement in an already over burdened health care system.  This is irresponsible government.

You have also not yet acknowledged that your colleagues in provincial government encouraged physicians to do this in lieu of fee increases. Failing to do so entirely removes your credibility, as does your decision to not restrict stock options.


You're confusing "cajones" with racism.

White Neo-Nazis chanting "Jews will not replace us" are "very fine people."

Black athletes quietly kneeling are "sons of bitches."

Rote patriotism is not an ideal of this country.


The solution has been talked about but our incompetent government is making no plans for our future. A new highway can be built from Aloha Stadium, over Ford Island, to the Ewa plain. When it was first proposed in 2005 by the last competent City Administration, the Navy commander was willing to talk about it, but Mufi Hannemann shot it down in favor of rail.


Fair enough, my reading (and my ex, a proud Ukrainian) both said it was dropped once the USSR dissolved.  I studied some Russian history back in my university days but certainly don't claim to be an authority.

It is curious, though, how some countries/regions get/got an article, and others don't.  The Netherlands, but not The Holland. The Belgian Congo, but Dutch Guiana.  Another of the wonderful inconsistencies of language (with English perhaps one of the worst offenders).

Again, Scheer shows how unfit he is for high office in this country.  Not content with running down the country over the Khadr result, showing that he, Kent, and Rempel did not understand that the highest court in country rejected the Harper era denial of Khadr's rights.  Now Scheer is warming to the lunatic right fascists.  Scheer does not have the capacity to lead this country.


Digging their heels in is what they do. They may realize their mistakes sooner or later, but they'll never admit it. Most importantly, they won't change their behavior : they'll still support him-or another like him-vote for him and place their own hurt feelings above the good of the country.  So good with calling it as I see it.


Nick Kouvalis is my favourite walking grease stain.  Nice to see Tory defending his old buddy.  John is nothing if not spineless.

I am opposed to all abortions, but I would be willing to start with: Outlaw abortion except for cases involving rape, incest, or the life of the mother is in danger.  That would be a great start, and St. John Paul II said incremental change is morally permissible.  That would eliminate 95% of abortions, and probably 60-70% of Americans could accept this compromise at this time; only the hardcore pro-lifers and the hardcore pro-abortion crowd would reject this compromise.

Be very careful of what you wish for small town Colorado. My hometown of Kennebunk, ME was a nice quiet and quaint village until the mid 1980s. Tourists would come visit the beaches and small shops in neighboring Kennebunkport. Come Labor Day Weekend the tourists went home and life returned to normal. That was until the tourists decided to they liked the quaintness so much that they moved in. Rather than move in and assimilate to quiet small town Maine, the folks from NY, NJ, MA, and CT decided that their new home needed to be a bit more like the cesspool they left behind. Today, Kennebunk and Kennebunkport are not recognizable to the people who were born and raised there. Southern Maine has become a suburb of Boston complete with astronomically high real estate prices and a "holier than thou" attitude.

You're right, you may not have to use the service, however, think 'if you had to use it'.  We spend billions on a out dated rail system but cannot take care of our senior citizens.  Switch the Handi-Van system and put it under the bus system or hire qualified employees who give a rats (you know what) about servicing elderly/disabled people and not just driving around to collect a paycheck.  One can only hope to not be in that position where you will need a service like that.


Legi is a good recruiter, not a D coordinator.  San Jose was one of the worse teams in D-1 and we struggled.  Nothing to get excited about. Rolo needs to instill discipline quick or it will be all over for him and the program.

While your post has some merit, you weaken your argument when the casualties are exaggerated: according to wikipedia the UK suffered total casualties of 450,000 in WW II, and likely less than 1,000,000 in WW I.  Also, any assertion that any WW I participant is entirely blameless is a very simplistic view of history, and even WW II is not always black and white (see Dresden, etc.).  Last but not least, if current governments must pay for the sins of previous generations, I would not want to be in the UK's situation - their debt to the Irish alone would bankrupt them.


Please name the leaders with integrity vision and values.


Good. Many of this bunch in the legislature shouldn't return anyway.


Enough with these RE propaganda pieces! Sold 311K over asking, great! When was the sale? How has the market responded since?

The truth: This house sold 96 days ago, on May 15th, at the TOP of the bubble.
Reality: Since they overbid at worst possible time (300K) + current market correction (200K) = Probably down -500,000$ on purchase price.

Conclusion: Terrible mistake on buyer!


This is a an obvious ploy to appeal to the union sector of the voting public. A non starter for the US and no doubt the Libs know this. Very  cynical. However, those right to work laws usually have a very deleterious effect on working conditions of unionized workers. In Wisconsin for example, the teaching profession I gather is in  disarray because of these laws, with teachers leaving the field and public schools having a tough time  hiring competent ones.


Of her decision to return and run for governor, it takes courage or misguided political philosophy. Courage to withstand the enemies of the party, Ige's  supporters and anti-plantation's sentiments. Misguided political philosophy of believing and rely in the old boy's network of yesteryear ! Good luck to her! Whatever will be will be.


Who is Lou Saban?


Marijuana is an addictive drug.
-
 Sure, it is useful and beneficial to humans because it can expand consciousness on a short term but soon it becomes an addiction and hazes the mind. The benefits are limited. Addiction is not liberty.
-
The point of decriminalization is about freedom and that the government does not have the right to tell people what to do with their body.  Marijuana is not an answer to life. We have to be careful about the narrative. Sadly this is just another socialist mess. Instead of just decriminalizing the government is creating a circus and advertising the drug as a solution to peoples problems.


... he IS right about increasing the tax burdens on the upper tax brackets during times of war like we've been in for the past 27 years ... we did it during WWII into the 1950s.


So America gets a taste of Bell Potts with a shot of vodka? Perhaps now their authorities will sit up and do something to crush the "bot wars" and sh*tFacebook? Ours certainly won't....


Yes.


Donald Trump told Prime Minister Theresa May in a phone conversation that he may not go on a planned visit unless he has more support from the public in the U.K................
.
With 37% support in the USA, where is the old groper to go ?


Abused once in 1999 then had 3 more kids thereafter. That sounds like manipulation of the system again, to produce American citizen children to help in not getting deported. Take them back to Mexico with you, or have baby daddy take them to visit you back there, since he is the primary caregiver anyways. Buh-bye.


Smart dog.


Air Canada, Air China and all the European air carriers are working out a plan to provide global travel hubs through Canada. This will be terrific for us, and, appropriately, terrible for the US. Let them drown in their own sewage.

The one reform that IS needed - and needed now - is for the names and identities of men "alleged" to have committed sexual assault remain confidential, just like the names of the female complainants are.

No man's name should be published or made public merely on the basis of an unsubstantiated allegation, or even a criminal charge.  If and when a conviction is secured and a guilty verdict rendered, well sure, lets hear it.  Far too many men have their lives negatively impacted merely on the basis of an accusation.


As usual, a lot of people seem to be painting all gun owners with the same broad brush because of this guy's irresponsibly.  Well, this guy is also a parent.  How about we paint all parents with the same broad brush too?

Another typical "responsible" parent.  The parent culture just shot itself in the arm.  Childcare in Parentmerica.

You are alienating yourself.   If the people that watch NFL are so offended by men standing up against police brutality, then I'm sure those fans will not be missed. Like the right likes to say they kid paid millions, a few less ignorant fans wont hurt them.

That's great you enjoy the game, it's sad that you will support police brutality over watching a game.


Sorry, they look extremely healthy and well cared for. Being able to have three children is not exactly how other Taliban prisoners were treated.
Why would they still be wearing Muslim garb and treat themselves like good conservative Muslims? This whole story as presented in the press is highly suspicious. The timing after Canada paying our terrorist makes me wonder.
The press portraying the kids as normal kids trying to say they are cured of their terrifying experience.
The Taliban holding them for ransom from the USA is idiotic, the USA nor Canada pay ransom, this also is the first we have heard of this captivity.

Liking your own post is pretty lame. There isn't a thing you like about Trump; therefore your opinion on any Trump issue is worthless.


As a single person of 55,   the piece of mind I have to be healthy and to enjoy my own independence far outweighs any need on my part of share costs living with others.  But there should be some control for retired singles like myself who rent and should not have to pay the rent of a couple or family.


When you mention Hitler, it's hard not to think of the evolution of the hatred of the Jews provoked prior to 1939. Germany was left poor to the point of ruin after WW1. When Hitler looked for a scapegoat in his rise to power in the 1930's, Jews were a natural choice, being successful in business with a dominant position in society as a minority.
Anti-Semetism wasn't an event, but a progression. Jewish business was the initial target, and it was successful because of the poverty of ordinary Germans. It didn't take long before the business part of Jew-hate fell away, to become a general hatred of Jews.
I think the highly charged incitement of emotions about WMC are for political gain and take advantage of the same structural poverty. The gap between WMC hatred, and a general hatred of whites is not very large and groups like the BLF are trying to close that gap. Of course, there are white racists a-plenty, but the fires fuelled by BP and others will take years to recover from, if ever.


"About two-thirds of Canadians are “shocked” or “upset” about Donald Trump’s electoral victory, a new poll suggests."

What pathetic, scurrilous clickbait.

In what proportions are this two-thirds either shocked (which is on thing) or upset (which is another)?  Why are these disparate things lumped together?


Angelo, I also recall a Trudeau riding out of The West with a middle finger extended towards the peasants.  Maybe we'll see this again when Trudeau Jr realizes this 'mangina' thing isn't quite working for him?


For one Mark Callahan, I will name because he no longer lives in Eugene/Spfd. Callahan was a regular commenter and regularly appeared in RG articles. Others still live here so I won't name , names. If you had live here for a greater time you would or should know the other names. When one seriously doesn't know the history of an area, one would be wise to remain silent and learn before tripping over themselves.

Your defense of a pathological liar by blaming the media, diluting facts to claim "this is just politics", is simply laughable. Is what is happening in Charlottesville, NC manipulated too? Are the chants of "f--- you faggots" and "soil and blood" real? Here's a FOX news link and let's see how much manipulation there is.

And the wealthiest corporations in the history of our planet spent about $12 million in advertising, mailers, lobbying, etc. to spin passage of BS21 - with cries of lost jobs! lost revenues! the sky will fall if we don't get gazillions of dollars in tax breaks!   Now see where that's gotten us.

Outsider:  Duh....of course NK knows an attack on the US would spell doom.  That's not their goal.  Their goal is to achieve full membership in the nuclear weapons "club" with the belief that it would enhance their ability to interact with other nations.. Certainly having a nuclear arsenal and the ability to deliver it as far as the US would deter any efforts to invade NK or to support any efforts to overthrow the regime.  The real question involved, not discouraging an attack of the US, but somehow keeping NK from have that full potential....and the time is running very, very short.  Gary Crum


This socialization of alcoholism in Canada is dumbfounding.  15+ million Canadians are addicted to booze, a drug associated with over 250 diseases, domestic violence, date rape, accidents. Most drinkers will tell you they started  their habit at home or at school.
>
 Universities should be dry, ban alcohol use all together. They are creating alcoholics'. The booze companies even promote on campus and give away the stuff for free.  Another reason why weed needs to be legalized immediately; to give people a healthier alternative. I believe the government does not want to give up their massive tax haul on booze, it is corruption and another sign they can not be trusted.
>
Alcohol clouds the mind, it is the last thing students need. It is so socialized at schools and in society you will be an outsider if you do not partake in binge drinking.  Something is very wrong with this picture.


Guess everyone except the driver is at fault aren't they.  Surprised you never blamed Trump or Obama for this.


Let's not forget that the FBI two months before the election announced that they found evidence that our nation's Internet system was hacked into by Russia.  So-called Wikileaks also hacked into the DNC emails.  Who's to say whether either of these hackers weren't able to hack into and manipulate our electoral system?  I believe the latter.
