We celebrate Easter because Jesus (Christ) died for our sins.

Jsesus told his followers, the Christians, to love their neighbours and to do unto others as they would have others do unto them.

Among the faiths, Christianity is the best of all. Isn't it?


Not all lives are worth saving. And ultimately,  none of ours are saved.

Nature is the ultimate recycler.


Based upon the videos I've seen the Boy Scouts of America would love to see Trump Make America Great Again


Don't be sorry when you're correct.


The part of your first sentence when you say "it's my job to regulate workplaces" is why many people don't have don't think too highly of government.  If you work at OR-OSHA, your job is to help or insure that workplaces comply with OAR Chapter 437.  As a corporate safety manager for many years you didn't regulate our company we complied with OSHA rules.


Who needs AI?  We have Justin Trudeau. That's as fake intelligence as it gets.


From the article: “Everyone knows how important it is for our generation to have a strong showing so that our issues are heard and that we begin to form relationships and open dialogues with our government.”

If I may paraphrase that:  "Everyone knows how important it is for elites to have a strong showing so that our money hugging issues are heard and that we begin to form "you pat my back and I'll pat yours" relationships   with our government."

The Liberals ARE transparent and they are not looking good.


You really need to work on your reading comprehension. The story reports on three specific niqab wearers. It also reports separately on "a 2013 study on women who wear the niqab in Canada". There is no slightest indication that the three women reported on were even included among the research subjects, much less that they were all the research subjects.


God decided the land belongs to the Jews 2000 year ago?  What make-believe world are you living in? God decided? That's kind of sick for someone to claim in this day and age. There was no Israel before 1948 when the first boatloads of Jews arrived and most of what is there today was created by Jewish money coming from the US.  In addition, the US government also gives Israeli over three billion of our tax dollars every year with no strings attached and we get nothing in return. Sorry but God can't make those kinds of decisions. He should worry about his hurricanes destroying Texas, etc.


Although India is a democracy, with the corruption at all levels and wealth accruing unequally and to those at the top strata, it might as well be China.  This article shows how the deadly the combination of ignorance, fear and poverty create these false prophets.  Not sure how some commenters feel this is an anti male rant.

The key to the Conservative Party crown is not alliances.  It is not being a wing nut like the last gaggle of goons who destroyed the party.

This comment box is to short to list all the names under the leadership of Harper who were criminally charged, investigated, or under the gun by their own appointed watchdogs.

Governing takes integrity, and the previous government didn't even have the word in their vocabulary.

Any prospective leader of the party needs to take a strong, principled stand against internal party corruption and vow to toss anyone showing a lack of integrity and values.  Until that day, the CPC will remain in the doldrums.


I'm sure he's flown over it a few times in his private jet. Probably while you were driving in your used car on the way to work for someone who was kind enough to employ you.


I too heard that a private comment between Hall and Mobley was overheard by some PC white woman who then whined and moaned to the University, anonymously I'm equally sure. This kind of professionally offended person is, sadly, becoming all too prevalent these days on American college campuses.


Why would he consult with OHA?  All it can do is cause trouble and take money.


I'm not going to re-read Pence's opinion piece, nor am I going to listen to Huckabee Sanders' news conferences, because that exercise isn't going to make me read your mind.  Tell me, specifically, what YOU THINK the lies are.  What specifically was said, and why is it a lie?

"Liar, liar, pants on fire" doesn't cut it.  You made the claim that lies were told.  Back it up.  Demonstrate your critical thinking skills that you think I lack.


We know exactly how it is done.  We know that it is illegal.  We know that it is institutionalized and involves the government.  Beside the illegal trafficking and the hardships that the trafficked individual must endure we have a situation that is ripe for corruption.  Corrupting the CPB/ICE officer, paying harbor official to allow trafficked people to live on vessels that they cannot step foot off of, political contributions, clerks and bureaucrats that issue permits, harbor police, NOAA inspectors.  All these people that work for the government are put in a place where they are subject to corrupting influences. These state federal regulator or law enforcement personnel are put in these situations by the industry's greed.  When a gang of criminal do illegal things (smuggling dope or guns) we call that organized crime, they are criminal.  When the government or its employees are involved we call it "corruption". Entirely different matter. One that eats at away at our democracy.


They couldn't save the 16 potus election.  How can they expect to save the world.  What a bunch of ultramaroons.


I call BS.


That is what we are moving towards, pal.


Maybe pseudonym science


Au contraire.   It was her house and her decision about which real estate agent she was going to use.    The word "personal", in context here, is that she had no personal complaint about the friend's husband's ability...merely that her decision was founded on another set of preferences.


Just wait until there are daily large scale attacks in the U.S. These gun banning sheep will be the first to beg for help. The criminals should be executed for first time violent crimes. No more catch and release, period!


Who are the elite? Republicans hate scientists and any academics. Republicans love the rich, maybe they are the elite? How does that serve the average working person? Blue collar workers have lost their well-paid manufacturing jobs throughout the US, and they have lost union representation along with their jobs, unless they work in the public sector or in trades protected by unions with government clout. But now, those former workers hate unions. Who will represent them? Trump promised them he would bring their jobs back. Do you believe that? Obviously the forlorn and abandoned workers hold out that hope. What happens when their good jobs don't come back? Do you think their good union jobs will come back?


This will not continue becoming the "norm" if the police enter and shoot.


When her estate trial comes to court the Princess will have to reveal what her sexual orientation is - lesbian, bisexual or heterosexual. Then the judge can determine whether her recent first marriage is legitimate or is it a ruse for estate purposes only?.


Maybe the verdict will also be announced in Arabic. Recall the reception for the deserter's parents in the Rose Garden?


I am totally invested right now with no spare cash(the big 6 Canadian Banks) and I may be a little daring but I'm not stupid enough to gamble any more money(40 grand) until the smoke clears and we can see if there is more to this. To me this is a little like gambling (with better odds) compared to investing and I find it fun.


Women.  The unborn have no such rights until Congress recognizes them and doing so would either ratify the status quo or make miscarriages a public event for legal purposes.  Oh, I seem to have lost my limo.


My personal vision is that a homeless data base is made of all homeless people, and after say 3 times coming in contact with Police they are arrested and relocated to a help ranch located somewhere out of the city limits.  This would be a working farm that, as they are evaluated and found to be able, are given small jobs that they must do at the ranch.  Over time, if their own personal goals are met they would be allowed to leave, or have visits from love ones. Some would be very happy to stay forever, as they cannot cope with the outside world.  Some would recover from addictions, and be transferred to half way houses, taught some life skills, and move on with life. Some would learn farming where they could find work at other farms.

But, for the program to work we all need to realize and accept that these acute homeless folks are causing damage to the health and welfare of those they affect around them.  A store owner should not have to clean up human waste every morning.


Explain the 3 million vote advantage that the Democrat Presidential candidate had or the fact Colorado will have had a Democrat Governor the for the last 12 years at the end of Hickenloopers's term?


It is a shame that anything other than intramural sports are supported by university systems.  Let professional sports fund their own minor leagues.


We would have preferred the format used by This Hour has Seven Days back in the day, which would have had Jones in debate with parents, police officials, the coroner, from Sandy Hook. We need to hold people accountable for spreading false news by confronting them with their victims.


I assume you meant "copy".


Geez, maybe they should set performance standards for each position in the military and then allow anyone who meets these standards to serve. That would solve the problem, right?

(Ooooops. they already do that.)


In a few months Trump will launch his own party. Why do you think he hired Hope Hicks?
By November next year the GOP will be a sad memory.
At long last!


This is a great example of how the new social sciences, following the lead of the old social sciences simply makes up terms, as if by making them up they  then represent new and actual realities.


I would seriously like to know, which exact law the President of the USA broke by signing the executive order banning muslims (but not religious minorities persecuted in these 7 countries)  from those 7 countries to enter USA for 90 days?

Tell me, which law of the USA guarantees the foreign aliens (or non-citizens of the USA) the right of entry into the USA? I would really like to get the reference to such a law.


1960's - 2.5 cents per pound for picking green beans.... $5 per day if you worked hard enough to pick 200 lbs..... enough $$$ to buy some new school clothes at JC Penney downtown.  Those awesome JCP white tees, Levi's 501 and low top black converse tennies.  Or chukka boots.


SA should not print yobo's mean-spirited, worthless comments.


A year ago, about 75 percent of U.S. workers said they were living from payday to payday,

….a number that has grown to 78 percent this year.


With any luck, this will prove to be a self-eliminating problem, as those who would kill the unborn, eliminate themselves in so doing; from that same future, shared with those who do not. Speaking of which, if I am not mistaken, Canada's birth rate, has been below the replacement rate, for decades now: hence the need to import people just to keep this place going. I might add that since the Church is regularly criticized for opposing abortion, I would take this opportunity to remind everyone that it was that same Church, that was also furiously criticized, for opposing slavery in the Deep South, prior to the start of the Civil War in the USA. Since slavery there is now banned, I would draw the inference that in due course, so too, will abortion be likewise banned. Fortunately, this procedure can't be used to commit infanticide, where late term abortions that result in live births are then killed. https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/are-babies-left-to-die-when-they-survive-abortion


My Path to Women Priests
Both my Wife’s Grandmother and my Grandmother were among the first Democratic County Committeewomen in Camden County, NJ.
In 1930, my Mother should have been Class Valedictorian; but it had to be a boy.
While in the seminary, the ‘Spiritual Director’ seemed childishly gleeful when he told us that, ‘Only men can be ordained.’
Sister M Edwin, RSM was one of my high school teachers. In the early 70s, she was featured on the front page of the local paper, advocating for the Ordination of Women. Several other Mercy Sisters at Camden Catholic could also have exercised priestly ministry.
Also in the 70s, St Joseph’s University held a program on Women in the Church. When it was over, we were going to the cafeteria for refreshments. I asked one of the women if she’d like to be ordained. Her reply: “Even with an MA in Theology, I can’t get a job teaching religion.” She happened to be a niece of a Philly auxiliary bishop.
Not enough characters for the rest.
Ordain Women


Odd.  I thought we already bought Alaska in 1867.


Yeah, that's like feeling bad about Honor killings. Too bad so sad... Have you ever worked with Ex-Muslims... They reside here in the U.S. and to this day they have to hide in this country just like they were in their home country. Granted they want nothing to do with Christianity, Judaism, Atheism and on and on, but they are looking for a new hook. I turned them onto Nontheism as they like most people have avoided ever hearing of that ism... But I also drew the internal characteristics of an Hydrogen Nuclear System for my Physics Professor back in high
school. The first question the Ex-Muslim asked me when we met together for a first time was if Allah avoided creating all of this then where did it come from. I am also an Artist so I drew a picture of the internal dynamics of an atom and when I looked up there were tears coming from his eyes and he was smiling from ear to ear. He said to me that was the first time he'd seen an answer to that question. For me that's what Atheism is.


This is the nature of the Globe & Mail, you know.


You can't "minimize" the effect of a bitumen spill in salt water; it sinks.


And once again the haters have to hate.

Applauded and encouraged by the hate spewed by the anti-Trumps who are on the side of all that is righteous and holy.

Where were the haters in Eugene when Bernie was here?  They did not show up to swear obscenely at his supporters.  They did not show up to impede citizens in their legal movements about the city.

We know where the haters were when Trump was in town.  We watched them on local TV trying to get fights started by shouting obscenities.

These are the philosophical cousins to the haters here at Civil Comments.


Intelligent decisions can be made only when one is in possession of correct factual immigration.  Your comments indicate that you know very little about the current immigration law and about the reality of current immigration and of the current enforcement of immigration laws.
The border is secured.  People who attempt to come in without inspection are arrested and detained.
Actually, the various Muslim terrorist groups hold the basic family unit in high esteem.
And where did you get the idea of "Islamic terrorists and Mexican drug gangs crossing into our country on a daily basis thru the porous southern border"?  That's simply not true.
As this story,  among others, indicates, a large part of the drug smuggling occurs because border patrol officers are taking bribes:  http://www.nytimes.com/2016/12/28/us/homeland-security-border-bribes.html?_r=0.


Sad to say a certain State AG is acting like a whiny, snot nosed step child who is crying when they can't have their way. What is with this babooze? Nothing else better to do?

Clearly someone is only looking out for #1, trying to add to their resume versus actually doing real work for the state paying their salary. Living for their 30 seconds of fame on the evening news, front page of local fish wrapper.

Nothing in the "Temporary" ban is going to affect the Nei one iota and they know it.

Time to send this loser packing, find someone who actually knows their job, knows how to work for the state paying their salary.

Current bureaucrat is not cutting it. Laughing stock of the entire world.


Interesting to see how the party affiliation was left out of the story, as well as his positions on police violence, and gun control.


There should a solid arrangement in place to hold the descendents of Trump and the GOP accountable if climate change due to CO2 turns out to be real. Put their kid's money/liberty where their mouth is. As they so loudly proclaim there is no connection they shouldn't have any problem with such a deal.


You can see the usernames that have reacted by clicking on the icons.  As you suggested there are quite a few that suggest staffers are voting.


You know you are lucky when:

1. you live in a country where people debate whether to legally mandate the proper use of pronouns and other details of language use, rather than whether you should be stoned, hung, or just flogged

2. your language is one of those that has the fewest gender markers in the first place, and not one in which gender forms the very backbone of the language.

Many languages have not just pronouns, but adjectives, articles, and even verb forms  change depending on gender.


Let's try it again.  I have no problem repeating it:

1)   This story is about clerics who believe so much in their progressive views that they engage in civil disobedience and get arrested.

2)  Bishop McElroy is a Catholic cleric who made a speech several months ago to young activists, urging them to "disrupt" society as they chose fit (ie civil disobedience) in order to force the nation to accept progressive ideals.

3)  Bishop McElroy himself seems to have no interest in personally participating in acts of civil disobedience.

4)  Because Barber II is willing to walk his talk, he seems to have more integrity than Bishop McElroy, who simply talks.


and the Mass was very much "his" domain.    the people were just there as passive observers.   in fact, for many years they were forbidden a part or to even have the whole  Mass available in translation.


It's been happening since the 70"s, nothing new.


No.

Yes, you would be much happier as an adult.

Happy to help you out with your questions, anytime.


However,they maintain the Russians were involved in this election... Amazing that. I mean his first wife is Ivanka. Ivanka is as Russian a name as one could ever want, even if they pretend it's Polish.

Mental illness could be an underlying cause, together with loads of prescription meds, as you rightly mentioned, to drive a guy to mass murder, if so inclined of course. I favour suicide but not everyone thinks this way.
Then, to confuse things just a tad, John Rapaport wrote that this whole shooting, like 911, was part fake and part truth. There is another lot, going by the name aim4truth, claiming that Obama tried to make it legal for the American government to use propaganda against its own citizens, that 911 was fake, and that most of this mass shooting as well as the one in Orlando is fake and they back it up very well. This opens a whole new world inside the parallel one we live in. Seemingly.


Liberals.. Hark ye

Reminder to Liberals as in Liberal Party

Khadr was also in Guantanamo under the administration of Jean Chretien

and little fuss was made then?

how come this sudden Khadr sentimentality


Tommie McFly is a humanitarian poseur who supported the brutal overthrow of democratically elected governments in the Ukraine and Egypt. After repeated challenges over 3 years he has been unable to articulate why democracy is better for China than its current system; instead like a trained seal, he keeps on parroting the same anti-Communist lines ad nauseam.  Democracy gave us W. Bush, Ford, Duerte, Trump and Hitler. After 3 years, we are still waiting Tommie to respond.


Exactly - he can (and should) resign and he should have done so when this first blew up.


Merkley will be the reason Dem. Senators from states that voted for Trump will side with the Republicans.  They know what will happen in 2 years if they go against the wishes of those who elected them.


"Their first priority is to get re-elected" :)

Political revenge dipper changes are as easy a flushing the toilet.


For people who believe that education is the answer, the above bit of obfuscation poses the question:  Do the people pushing SB89 really think that Planned Parenthood, or any women's reproductive health service, are marketing the abortion of fetuses as a "product?"  Or are arguments like the above just a bit of political connivance on the part of so-called "christian conservatives" who've gotten a little too used pulling the strings and levers of the political machine?

Given the author's track record, I'd say the latter---But there are people out there who do believe these falsehoods, and would much rather have an ineffective program like abstinence-only education pushed in our public schools as the only sex "education" alternative.

As  a father of a teen daughter, a product of Alaskan public schools, let me say this clearly:  Planned Parenthood's real "product" is education---By far the best anti-abortion effort out there.


Actually the banana republic moves have all been by the democrats to protect their own scum from those investigations.

Sadly they have been largely successful in this effort and it is critical that we don't elect another one.

Only a republican administration will allow for a proper investigation of the democratic crimes against this country and it's people that have been caused by Obama, Clinton and all of their scum ball followers and helpers.


It's a pattern.


Isn't Julien the same coach who referred to the Habs as "divers and embellishers?" Haha this is too good. Heard Saku Koivu is on a flight over for first line center duties!


Facebook is the University of the future. Retail Department stores are disappearing , we can now start closing Universities, and every one will be issued a chip . This chip will cause us to learn remotely. Get rid of the Administration of the Universities first. The rest of the freeloaders who are experts at teaching will be replaced , by new apps that will make the world a smarter place. Then the Universities will have nothing to say about free speech. We shall be better off.


Where sir is your moral compass?

Now go back to your indoctrination source and retake "Intro to Demagoguery  - Name Calling".


ron, i agree. if all nonprofits and government agencies, churches and others involved in homelessness in hawaii came together, pooled resources, talent, energy and time, progress might be made. until then the disjointed, arrogant, knee jerk responses we have seen will continue to prevent real work to progress on this issue. the sad fact is that no one knows just how much money and manpower is being wasted right now, or even how much is available.


I'm not a fan of either, but sometimes efforts, both opinions of "experts" and coverage by media should be directed at more useful things.

Does anyone think this would have been news with the previous government, let alone an apology?
The senator is lucky to have a job after multiple drug-related and violence brushes with the law.  Not a word, from  media or experts on how he is still guaranteed employment and treated like VIP until the age of 75?  Does anyone recall that he falsely claimed he was from a community for tax purposes?  Oh, but don't make stereotypes about what his is!


I'm not saying the sports shouldn't be eliminated, but once they are they will never come back.


Hi Helgard,

Would love to know “what history really teaches us about the human endeavour”?

Also, just a thought, but isn’t the “end” of identity politics always simply the promotion of the specific interests of the group with whom one identifies?


The Mat-Su Borough needs to have an employee cap where the residents can control the amount of people working for the borough. If they need more people, they can do short term contracts that are bid.


Here’s a few more sad commentaries on politics in that country...

"I could stand in the middle of 5th Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn't lose voters.”

“If Ivanka weren’t my daughter, I'd be dating her.”

“An ‘extremely credible source’ has called my office and told me that Barack Obama’s birth certificate is a fraud.”


Another home run Margaret!
It has been apparent for some time Wynne cares nothing for the well being of ordinary taxpaying Ontarians, as long as she can push her ideologically driven Liberal agenda.
The cap and trade scam is a fiasco that only a moron could subscribe to. It has failed wherever it has been implemented elsewhere and will fail again here. As  the Provincial Auditor has already warned..
I am curious to see just how many of the people who paid into the Liberal  "Cash for Access" scheme have also benefited in the all the green energy money she has thrown around.

This policy is a good thing for trans people if those trans people live in America and enjoy the protection of the military.


The Republicans have a majority and they control what happens in terms of investigations, witnesses, subpoenas, and hearings. Democrats are stuck just speaking up. The danger for both parties and the country is if the Republican were to use their control to suppress the investigation or cover things up or distract the news away from issues with Trump instead of getting at the facts. I see it as a positive that the leadership of the Senate and of the House are today taking a calm and responsible position of letting the facts come out (i.e., not trying to hide, delay, or reshape facts). The Democrats and the news media can act as watchdogs if the Republicans do not work in a bipartisan way or attempt to shape things to favor Trump or the Republican Party.


Bavius, I think you would call Politico.com part of the MSM, and certainly it's often quoted there.

They compared Clinton to Trump during the presidential campaign.

Clinton scored 50% of her claims as True or Mostly True, and the rest Half True, Mostly False, False or "Pants on Fire."  Not great.

But compare to Trump at 17% True or Mostly True, and the rest Half True, Mostly False, False or "Pants on Fire." A full 48% were in the last two categories.

So, you were saying...?


One still pays less.


Usng 6 pound test today?


I took the poll and loved it!  There are questions hinting at ranked ballot and forcing diversity.  But my favourite part is the multiple times that you can take the survey - this was not advertised.  It will probably be promoted later, when Minister Monsef stands in the HoC to say, "Mr. Speaker, we have consulted with Canadians and their values indicate to us, Mr Speaker, that Canadians want the ability to vote early and to vote often."


Agree with most of your comment; however, I don't believe Trump will be forgotten, but remembered as our country's most incompetent, corrupt president to date.


And you're outraged about it!


So much for transparency in government.
Why the need to hold a closed door meeting if not to browbeat dissenters ?
How can the government representative in Senate reasonably claim to be "independent ?"

I'm not so concerned about a secretly partisan, non partisan Senate as I am about a bunch of appointed people who are representatives of single interest groups and have little regard to to good of all. The advantage of party discipline is that it prevents the kind of horse trading of votes over issues that shows no regard for the needs of the country as a whole. Hopefully this can be avoided.

In the meantime, there are clearly some birthing pains for this new structure.


Interesting that when it comes to this Foundation ( and its dubious dealings ) Trump sees it as a conflict of interest and suddenly wants to dissolve it, yet he doesn't view his massive business interests as a conflict.....that he won't sell.....or even consider selling.  Nonsense about letting his kids run it to keep it at arms length.....AND he even noted that legally, there is no rules about conflict of interest for a President, VP yes, Senators and Congressmen yes, but not a President.  We have our own private foundation and the rules are VERY clear about benefiting from it....and if he REMOTELY did what has been reported, he both KNEW he was,  and DID abuse the rules of a charitable foundation...just as for that matter, he breaches most rules.  Shameful.


Glad to see other people are catching up to what I have been saying for ages.

To those who question the fact that French Normans (aka ancestors of the people of Quebec) played a major roll in the creation of modern English, you need to look at the  history of the English language. Mind you French itself is merely "bad" Latin, a regional dialect of Latin , much like Spanish, Italian, Portuguese etc.  English itself has more Latin based words than Germanic even though it is classified as a Germanic language.

I used to laugh at Quebecers who use to say they were distinct from the English. In the middle ages you were the English.


What a coward he is. Bullies always are. "Believe me."


You do understand they can simply use the not withstanding clause and tell the Federal government ot&^%$$


no chance for reform on health care or taxes as long as the republicans keep the dems out of the discussion.

They mostly have D's following their names and apparently from the posts here support German (and US) death camps.


In the USA, there is the The Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act that was written to allow owners to use aftermarket oil and air filters, etc. The SEMA aftermarket industry often extrapolates this to claim that your warranty will be unaffected by aftermarket modifications (in Canada, there is no such law). However, if the manufacturer refuses warranty coverage, good luck fighting them.


I think you mean a paid readership of 40,000.

No rebuild = no Stanley cup finals for the habbos!!!! Love it!


Trump has likely succeeded in doing to Mexico what he's done to moderate and progressive Americans - motivated them to create a unified opposition.  Who knows? Maybe Trump's election will serve as a wakeup to most Americans that they need to engage and seek reasonable compromises, or we'll get another 4 years of this kind of madness.  I hope we survive the next 4 years.


I believe it is also about the cost.  For example: he can't pay a private charter $1000 to fly him from X to Y and then only charge the campaign expense $300 because that is what a scheduled commercial flight would cost.  Of course he would like to charge the lesser amount because he has a maximum he can spend but he's not able to make up lesser charges just for his campaign budget's benefit.


Alceste, I see your love for me grows ever deeper.  I'm not just smart, I'm rather good looking, too.


Your libs could have cancelled but they needed the cash to pay for lavish spending.  Sounds like prostitution to me.  Bryce Mackasey no whore like an old whore


Chuck:  When you're the largest economy on the planet with the largest military, coupled with a near-messianic sense of one's role, you don't need to listen to anyone or follow the rules unless it's in your interest do so.


No, you look it up.
We have lots of rights that "can not [sic]  exist without infringing on the rights of others" unconstitutional scholar and sentence-murderer."  The Constitution - and case law that arises out of Constitutional disputes - constantly juggle our rights.  for example, the rights of the whole over an individual.  As in the NSA being allowed to invade the rights of American citizens in order to (supposedly) protect the nation as a whole.

And a serial killer might define his right to the pursuit of happiness to include the unfettered ability to murder at will. But that infringes on his victims right to life. See how that works, DA?


Buehler, like many Republicans, would like to forget the impact that BM5 and BM47 had on public sector funding - especially school funding.  These measures dramatically reduced the taxes of businesses at the expense of quality education and services in Oregon.   What the Republicans do not talk about is re-balancing the Oregon tax laws so that businesses return to paying their fair share.  Of course it is easier to cry about the PERS Boogeyman than to risk alienating your big campaign contributors - hello Phil Knight!  And, as Buehler's guest column last week proved, he has no real (and legal) PERS reform ideas anyway.


Thank you for understanding


No.


Of course they are now, "well developed cities"!!   That is clearly the Israeli tactic, to make the occupation of Palestinian land so "normal" and entangled by infrastructure that it can't be undone in the future.  The settlements they are building today, will be "well developed cities" in 2036.   Israel is a democratic state if you're Jewish; it certainly isn't if you're a Palestinian Arab.


Now that is a load, it has been Obama and Kerry in full out attack on Israel,   Trump is Jewish you fool


I agree that the sentence was harsh. The crime was harsh. And this kid's life has probably been pretty harsh up to the moment he pulled the trigger. As a parent, I wonder what the kid was doing with an electronic cigarette in the first place? What horrors had he been subjected to prior to this placement? I would also venture to say that he has many private moments when he wishes he could take back those few moments of anger that led to this tragic end.  60 years is a long time for him to be further screwed up by the system.


Dems eating Dems.


If the GOP plan still doesn't cover pre-existing conditions, then it should be DOA in the senate.


Sgt. Speer's death is a tragedy for his family, as is every soldier's death, but why does it warrant some huge financial settlement? Should the family of every American soldier killed in Iraq or Afghanistan get a similar amount?

With all respect, Sgt. Speer volunteered to join the army and chose to go to Afghanistan, knowing that there would be dangerous combat with a risk of death or injury. His death is sad but not unusual or exceptional in any war. War is war, war is hell and people die, that's just reality.


20 years at $50000 prison expense a year is 1 million dollar we pay for the upkeep of this worthless human. This justice system is plainly insane. I agree with kennie 1933.


Because it is THEIR money.  Money used to create jobs for those who WANT to work.


David Charles Randall - Sorry, but you want it both ways. The so-called Bolivarian Revolution is a  leftist political process firs led by Hugo Chávez, the founder the United Socialist Party of Venezuela.  It continues to this day. You people on the left can't just point to your alleged "successes" (if being taxed to death in places like Sweden is your idea of success) and simply dismiss the obvious failures like Venezuela, an oil-rich country where the people are literally starving, thanks to socialism. It's your baby - don't deny it.


Safety is the #1 reason self-driving cars will become the norm.


PS: I'm guessing that if Hillary was elected under similar circumstances (with lots of Russian ties to her campaign and known Russian interference) that at this point you, too, would be sitting back telling everyone that her election was legit and we shouldn't question anything.  Right?

By the way, does the FACT that Russian interfered in our election concern you at all?  Wouldn't you, as president, order some kind of investigation into that?  Why isn't our own president doing that?  He is clearly no patriot, that's for sure.  And neither are you if you can stand by and watch foreign governments undermine our democracy.  And this is regardless of whether or not Trump won legitimately or not.

Morality is not based on emotions, unfortunately. You sound like a utilitarian or moral relativist at best. Which is Godless. If you don't believe in God, so be it. But if you do, you also believe morality is determined by Him and Him alone. Emotions are flawed and perfect happiness doesn't exist. Also, there is something to be said about the grace of asceticism anyway and the great saints who practiced it fully.


Just like dogs in a park!

Anything you purchase with the 'COR', or a 'U' or a 'K' in a circle, plus many other symbols certify a food 'kosher'.  See this link for a list of all the symbols;

http://www.cor.ca/view/85/cor_kosher_symbol_card.html

A quick unscientific survey of the food in my cupboards showed that well over half of what I buy is certified kosher by one group or another.

I actually had a friend tell me his father considered the costs of all this 'certification' to constitute a 'kosher tax' and that he was the using it as a tax deduction, but my research into the subject found it to essentially be a hoax.  Here is a link to a wiki page on the subject;

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosher_tax_conspiracy_theory

I am not a member of any faith so I really have no feelings either way about the issue of labeling a food kosher, but I thought I could help clear the air on the subject.


Joe, you have no idea what you are talking about.
The record (and they weren't record, Trudeau Senior's were higher on a share of GDP basis), deficits were a direct result of the worst global recession since the 1930s and massive spending to fight the recession.  As a result, Canada regained all lost ground in output and employment before any other developed country.
Harper also left Trudeau 2 balanced budges and a growing economy.
Trudeau instantly brought us back into deficit (just like his dad in 1973) and that deficit will be 2 to 3 times what Trudeau promised.
I can live with spending cuts, oh hell, how about just holding the line on sending instead of massive deficits while the economy is growing.  That will be enough to ensure a good future.


All you have to do is google it.  There are many health risks to doing cannabis.  Furthermore, this constant comparing of  pot and alcohol  is a logical fallacy.  Both alcohol and cannabis are very different drugs that effect the user in very different ways.


Mr. Olson, you "represent" no one other than yourself.  I recently heard on the Alaska news that Haines will lose their only state trooper and the position will be moved to Western Alaska, where domestic violence and sexual abuse is a constant issue.  It is not beyond notice that many of these legislative abuses (and they are abuses) are practiced by Western Alaska elected officials.


In an appearance much more riveting than any reality show, former FBI Director James Comey provided his side of the events preceding his firing and thereafter. During more than two hours of sworn testimony before the Senate committee, he detailed President Trump's machinations and dissembling, including possibly attempting to obstruct justice, which made Comey so uncomfortable he asked Attorney General Jeff Sessions to provide a buffer between him and the commander-in-chief. Through his statements today Mr. Comey has thrown down a verbal gauntlet that may eventually force Mr. Trump to throw in the towel.


Solution. Move. Just like I had to move. Just like every other real Seattleite has had to move who can no longer afford the idiotic real estate prices. The solution is to move.


"What happens when men like these popes and other child raping priest protectors say Mass? Is it holy? Is the ritual itself a form of worship?"
Exactly, I had to give it up going into Church building where clergies rape children in sacristy and confessionals.  I felt contaminated with clergies sexual impurity attending Mass receiving Eucharist from the filthy hands which raped children!!!???


Obama Paid Over $1 Billion In Social Security To ILLEGALS


Trump has lots to apologize for.  let me just list a couple:

1.  He has refused to release his tax returns even though all presidential candidates since Nixon has.  He promised that he would release them, then changed his mind.  This makes him a big fat liar.

2.  He promised health care second to none but instead backed a plan that was just plain crap.  Liar liar pants on fire....

3.  He promised that he would drain the swamp but instead has made it twice as big and 10 times as deep.  Already it is almost filled up with slime.  Way to drain the swamp Donald.


Mr. Martin, your hairsplitting about what's racism versus garden variety bigotry is a red herring, and a harmful one at that.  It's all racism Mr. Martin, and it's all bad. It's reasoning such as yours that allows the dominant group to convince themselves that they're not racist because they're not burning crosses on someone's lawn. Yet it discounts the other subtle and not so subtle forms of racism that people engage in every day. You acknowledge in your article the many egregious things Trump has done, yet you refuse to characterize him as racist. For some reason, his housing discrimination, characterization of Mexicans as rapists and his comment that African Americans have "nothing left to lose" are not racist? By your standard, nothing is racist. Your blindness to racism IS racism. Burning crosses or no.


And I'm still waiting for you to explain why I should do that for a white supremacist who uses a fake dog-whistle name after being banned by the G&M several times under other names.

Not that I don't want to find you waiting on my street one night or anything.


Your spin reeks of desperation. lol


Actually Omar was living in Afghanistan at the time of his unfortunate arrest, so I think he should be paid in Afghan Afghanis.  So 10.5 million Afghanis equals $199,500 Cdn - what the hell make it $200,000.


Not worth "A Hill of Beans" egomaniac who has the nerve to run against an American like Trump, better try another outfit besides a baggy pantsuit.  How about a outfit with horizontal stripes and a straightjacket.  She will need the later after a huge defeat!


Go get 'em tiger!  GRRRRRR


Jason Kenny and the united right in Alberta claim they can balance the provincial budget in two years without raising personal taxes while cutting business taxes from 12% to 10%. You can see where this is heading: layoffs of 50,000 teachers, nurses and government employees. The economy will be devastated. A good example that populists are not conservatives.


Labour is readily mobile in free market theories. Where they break down, is where labour is artificially kept immobile. That's how you end up with thousands of unskilled labourers who are comparatively overpaid, who can't get fired once they get hired, and who disrupt production to such and extent that very few are in a position to acquire skills that prepare them or any kind of absorption elsewhere.


If you are asking for subsidies, you ARE asking for welfare.

Thank you for the Duke and research input.

how I work with my dreams may not apply to what dreams mean for you.—2Be4Peace  HOW you work with your dreams is different from THAT you work with your dreams, but related to “The salvation of the just comes from the Lord” (Psalm 37:39A) Liturgy of the Word, Reading 492, Tuesday of the Thirty-Second Week in Ordinary Time II for all of that.  The relative value of dreams is for a glimpse into what the Faithful are hiding from themselves by way of inhibitions, for whatever reasons, whether Freudian or Jungian.  God bless you and yours.


From what I read, I think that more investigation needs to be done - mental health issues and poverty being at the top of the list.  You can't have just "part" of a house in that condition, so is was it neglect or was it mental illness.  But the state does need to require school districts to track homeschooling families to catch issues like this. If it is true.  We only have one side of it so far.


He is so sure the centrist left and the old guard GOP is dying.  If he is right, I see violence around the corner.  Bullying easy targets, attacking the media, attacking anyone who disagrees with the administration.  All hallmarks of Fascism.  Kass thinks its a game - Trump is winning.  I fear many lives will be lost. The Greatest Generation gave their lives to fight fascists; are we ready to give in to a modern day Fuhrer?


As someone who been yo prison your right about the breeding ground of hate but your wrong in the rehab part. Why rehab someone who is doing 20 plus years. When you get to a minimum like I was at then they have all typea of rehab programs but you try to make it a sad story and want to fight for the right but let me tell you when your doing 20 years you really are living for nothing.


No taxation, no representation.


Our senior Senator sent Trump a "tweet" congratulating him on "a decisive victory".  I`m going to wonder at her slow conversion to tea-party -think (so far Clinton has TWO MILLION more votes than Trump does!  Explain THAT to schoolkids around the world..).  All I`m saying is, yes he won by the obfuscating electoral college rules, but not by the wishes of the MAJORITY of individual voters of this nation. And it`s happening more often. That should be cause for discussion if nothing else.


U.S. Sen. Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va., said Friday she wouldn’t support an amendment to the GOP’s health care overhaul pushed by far-right Senate conservatives, pouring cold water on prospects of unifying the party around any legislation.

Hey Murkowksi!  See how it's done?

Murkowski is a stooge.


Glen Nielson's quote in this article ("It gives them access to peers their own age who are not students who are anywhere on the continuum of behavioral or cognitive issues," he said. "They can sit side-by-side with students in the classroom.") implied the opposite of what you're saying. I, too, was left with the assumption that these kids will be dumped into mainstream classrooms, so pardon the many concerned parents who are commenting on this article.

Please allow me to reply, Null, how unfortunate it is that you have chosen to post here under this pen name.  Its accuracy is such that it is embarrassing.  This observation aside, it is widely agreed on that Mr. Landrieu's speech making the argument for the removal of all Confederate monuments in New Orleans is one that stands out high and indeed proudly as the statement of what it means to be an American - namely, a decent citizen who is not afraid, and indeed eager, to confront him or herself with the darkest past of this nation, learn from it, and turn it into something inspiring.  Mr. Landrieu's magnificent speech (which was well noticed worldwide outside the USA) and the actions it accompanied are an inspiration for all of us, as it shows that there are indeed elected officials who rise up to defend decency, freedom, and American values - none of which is respected in the current Congress, and much less - in fact, not at all - by the current occupants of the White House.


If you are one of those rich that everyone is talking about, it must drive you crazy everytime you pass a mall, to know that your taxes are personally for helping families that are in their buying shoes, clothes and electronic devices. If you are that middle class family with kids, you are glad to get the cheque, will be happy that you are getting a raise in 2018, and if you are smart enough, you realize that the Liberals are also using your own money to buy you off. If you are the working poor, vote Liberal, or at least that's what the promise to you means. If you are senior, vote like you always do, but don't expect lavish help, you are forgotten like always. Since taxes won't cover all this, start counting the days until 2018. That's the start of the clawback, otherwise known as the carbon tax, where the government starts to take back everything it just gave you.

Harper promised to reduce my tax load and did. He promised to be fiscally responsible and was.


Blue Lives Matter!!

Wait... never mind.


I thought we went through this in the 70s, if 18-year-olds are old enough to go off to Iraq and die in vain then they're old enough to smoke tobacco if they so desire. If tobacco is a problem for the state of Oregon then ban it. The hypocrisy, while the state is Legalizing marijuana.


Nobody wants to be chief under those conditions. I know the guy, never really wanted THAT job. Ballard, a good choice amongst the applicants,  got an uphill battle. Looking at Cary, he aged.


Like every day in the USA


Somebody got some sort of a death threat *cough* Bernie


Rhetorical question Carl. Thought you would know that. You see, in the American court of public opinion we are all attorneys, jurors, and judges. Not executioners, however. You'll have to visit the Caliphate for that.

See you in court.

"...no doubt due to the national discussion of fake news, bias and flippant reporting."

And there are so many examples of this kind of dishonest, lazy "reporting" on both sides of the political spectrum. Advocacy journalism has its place, but too few are able to recognize it as such.


So entitled, so oblivious. You don't have some inalienable right to fly on someone else's airplane.  Sorry to be the one to break it to you. "Disrupt their lives?"  So an aircrew could be delayed from getting on their flight, thereby "disrupting the lives" of hundreds, instead of one?  Have you ever actually read what the airlines can do to you if you are uncooperative in a federally administrated an enforced environment like a jet airline?  You really haven't thought this through, have you.


Hey, Freeland's stance on immigration is making headlines in the NYT and elsewhere, it's hard to miss...

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/06/opinion/canada-leader-of-the-free-world.html

See 3:06 onwards.


Well said. The Sask economy is one of the most balanced economies in Canada with multiple critical industries.

The author revealed ether his bias or ignorance with=" This is what happens when you have an economy with an over-reliance on one product that suddenly tanks – in this case oil."


My interpretation.....Zuma knows exactly where to get the votes he needs to stay in power and rob the fiscus. Sure, so he has given our hard earned taxes to some of the poorest, but in the same breath he has reduced our economy to junk status and in so doing, defeating the whole object of sorting out the poor. What else have the Gupta's put into the Van Rooyen cookie jar to warrant such drivel.


The issue shouldn't be canadian taxpayers, its canadian CORPORATIONS.  THEY are the ones with all the money.  Just this week we find out that in New Brunswick, the Irving family, which is the 40th wealthiest in the  world, actually owns 4 kilometers of the ocean,  and it is appraised at less than one hundred thousand dollars.

    And of course if you didn't know, they had property taxes frozen at half a million, for a gas terminal appraised at eight million.   In other news, the McCain family, another group of billionaires, have been taking advantage of tax breaks on farmland for over forty years.

   In case you didn't know, New Brunswick is a dirt poor province, and the Irvings live in Bermuda, the McCains live in Boston.  Meaning they don't pay income taxes here AT ALL.

   So for all the guys worrying about their 'decent income', if you spent your time joining with the people who you gripe about as 'leaching' society, maybe we can get the people with  money taxed.


Good old Layla with her conspiracy diversions.      I posted the comment last night in another article (the "Who is he?" article).       Scheer HAS spent his entire life in politics and has accomplished little in all those years except a reputation as the ultimate "Yes-man".       And his speech referenced Ottawa "elites" as if he hasn't been one of the prime beneficiaries of this "elitism".     You think he's going to reject Stornoway for his family of 5 kids to live in less "elite" surrounding?

So you may imply (in your passive aggressive way) that there's some sinister "coincidence" or you can simply accept fact as written or offer up a list of Scheer's record in Parliament to counter my opinion.      I'm guessing you won't do either.


‘Liberal’ Wallace who has worked at Fox for a decade or more?

Collecting negative on any candidate is common, remember Juniors glee at hoping the Russians had something for him.

It’s deep structural problems inherent to our Two Party system that allows unlimited private funding for campaign spending, that also influences political policy by ‘donors’ expecting a return on their investment.   There is less to separate the two parties on this than partisans want to believe


Hillary will stack the Supreme Court and within 8 yrs the Supremes will say 2nd Amendment applies to militias, not individuals. Then the arrests will start. Turn in your guns by this date or go to prison when your neighbor turns you in and a SWAT team raids your home in the middle of the night. Not a fantasy.


But we know the NDP will deliver first to their BCTF and other union backers.....remember Adrian ready to shovel the tax money to the BCTF after his assured win last election?   I would rather go with the Liberals over the anti everything but union and green NDP anyday.....and I will.


These are a series of proposed changes that cut a wide swath - some of which have arguably a reasonable policy basis.  In particular the punitive treatment of investments in a CCPC is overkill and fails to recognize that many of those who employ corporations for accumulating and retaining these investments are doing so for purposes of a business buffer for hard times and also to provide for emergencies and retirement since they do not have access to generous health and pension plans - as is the case for university professors, civil servants and politicians.  I would like to see a valuation put on Jean Chretien or Justins risk free political pension plans to get a sense of what level of investments is appropriate.  The other problem is that people plan on the basis of the rules we have - in particular for retirement change (even on a go forward basis) can be unfair.  Finally, changes like these always have an unintended result - doctors will call for greater provincial compensation.


To have the cake and eat it, too.


So the best people to run Canada should not be allowed and we get bilingual school teachers who know nothing running the country. Great!


Yes. The Liberals could never explain why the voting system that got  them elected with a majority was all wrong.  Conservatives however understand the FPTP system works despite who wins.


Who is supposed to make the rules, the kids or the principal/superintendent/school board?   Letting the inmates run the asylum is not the answer.


Croaking Bird, can you explain to the unfortunates how the self-regulating free market will work for everyone else?


This move is great in restoring or providing funding for several crucial state service programs.  However, this also continues the scheme of the oil companies and their bought and paid for Legislature, which has in many duplicitous moves done whatever they could and did to kill development and construction of an Alaska Natural Gas Pipeline.  So, the motive of moving $50 million to other programs is great, but really a covert "special interest" means again of sandbagging development of an ANCP.  Time to start charging a double penalty royalty for fracking, flaring, and reinsertion of natural gas to booster the oil fields. If the oil companies use it, the natural gas, they should pay for it.


While I like your thoughts about inclusion, I have my doubts. Not that Trump won't try, but that there will be a lot of effort to oppose him. For years now groups of special interest have used animosity to divide us. BLM, KKK, Progressives, and so many others. And not all are from the left, but that does seem to be a prefered tactic of those who want a socialist revolution in this country.

If/when Trump attempts to dismantle any part of the progressive advances there will be violence.


Attention americans:  republicans are not your friends.  They are all about helping businesses make money and do not care about your health care, your privacy or the environment.  If they do amything to help you in these areas, it is only incidental to their money first agenda.  Unfortunately,  most republicans seem to believe that getting rich makes one immune to all mundane problems afflicting poorer people, and that if you have these problems, it is only because you are lazy.  This is what I see from today's republican party.


Da, How about some alternatives! Really poor leadership at out our county level.  The roads are the issue, not driving habits! No safe barriers, no rights side fog lines, " when on coming headlights are in your eyes, look to the right for direction", poor county road maintenance.  Tree tunnels after sunset with rain , DEPLORABLE,  try drive the TUNNELS,MAYOR!  Deplorable!


Keep the hate on for Trump. Globe is doing a great job!
Remember after the Third debate Trump and his family look defeated and they know they will lose big time.
That was the Globe and the rest of the fake media.
Radio station 1010 reported one week before election that Trump is dropping out because he will lose in a landslide. More fake news. You guys and gals are worse then Pravda from 1939!!!
Keep the fake news coming Stalins work is not finished.....................


I guess the NFL is getting easier and easier. A man who is incompetent, delusional or trying to get fired won 5 straight division titles, two conference titles and a world championship in not quite 7 years on the job. If Elway should get canned who shouldn't? I mean besides Bill Belichek.

Waikele, it is not uncommon for airlines to overbook flights hoping there will be no-shows or last minute cancellations to avoid boarding denials.  If a flight is still overbook at boarding time, gate agents first ask for volunteers to give up their seats for certain compensation.  If that does not work and the flight is still overbooked, airlines are permitted by federal regulations to select the passengers who will not be allowed to board.   All of this should be done before anyone boards the plane.   This is all in accordance with Federal regulations.  The problem with the Dao case is that passengers were boarded and then asked to give up their seats.  That definitely was United's fault and the cause of the Dao incident.


Unfortunately it is the undereducated unprepared egomaniacal man-child that has the nuclear codes.


That flag isn't unifying me with the likes of you. Believe me.


I'm always amazed how CU is so scared to play CSU. Given their situation, CU should dominate and this should be a walk in the park. Act like big boys and beat a team that you should. It's a great game every year for fans but CU had to end it because they're little babies that no longer think they can win, it's sad.

I don't envy the person replacing Essig.  He's great.  It's odd to hear UO trying out the NBA style announcer is considered experimental.  That style has been around in professional basketball before Michael Jordan ever made it to a NBA conference final.  We know what that sounds/feels like and it's not good.


Trump administration needs to be clear-eyed in the strategic objectives it seeks to achieve in Syria to avoid getting drawn into a prolonged ground war. Defeating ISIS should remain the number one objective. Containing Iran is also a key strategic objective, given its hegemonic ambitions and its state sponsorship of terrorism.


In almost every village I work in there are entry level jobs posted at the village office....unfilled. Why, must be all are working! If they CAN survive, as you say without other peoples money to support them then why dont they? Maybe years and years ago but not anymore. But then not just AK native people used to survive but many other cultures did also and excelled at it. It amazing after 10,000 years being here in Alaska many still use honey buckets........


I think this fictional article shows something very different.  Something that your comment proves.


The term is revenue neutral tax. If you can do that without taking money from anyone, I will be impressed.


wikgirrrl:  Eugene is well known as a MINIMUM WAGE city.  These homeless people need to move to states down south where there are year around agriculture jobs.  The  AG owners provide housing, wages etc.


I read the article in the NY Post that you reference. It doesn't even come close to proving or even justifying your claim that ". . . Obama supported the murders of cops . . ." The article calls into question the language Obama used in criticizing instances of some police responses in black communities and when arresting blacks, saying in some instances "racism" may be involved, and that language like that from the president may inflame or may be used as justification by some people to shoot police officers.
In my mind, whether or not I agree with it, that's a fair point to bring up. We all need to be careful of the words we use when discussing highly charges issues. But that is a far, far cry from what you said in your statement that ". . . Obama supported the murders of cops." It's a lie, sir. Pure and simple. You know it. I know it. And anyone who objectively reads the article knows it.
What your motive is in making such an ignorant, prejudicial statement, only you and God know.


If its a weasel he won't be eating the millet.  They eat meat not grain and they are not rodents.


That's a story, for sure.


The condo owners' association was stupid for changing a contract without the consent of the other party.


Just wondering out loud, where is the outrage that a 15% tax on foreign buyers is racist, evil, or goes against the Canadian Charter?
And if you think my question is off-put, silly, or irrelevant, why?


I  was replying to Vote4Me. The OP did not imply there was a correlation between traffic congestion and a lack of integration.


Hmm- did you read my post? I said that your position on gays is, technically speaking, bigotry.

I won't vote any member of Imago Dei.  Do you really think Pastor McKinley is going to change his conservative Baptist ways and reject female submission and embrace equality of gays and heteros?

By your logic, it would be okay for me to join (insert name of organization you dislike)
and give them money on the off chance that the group may change due to my superior reasoning?

There's no solution for Imago Dei.  They are Conservative Baptists and they try and
wrap bigotry in religious doctrine so that they can escape criticism.  Because I don't recognize the Bible as holy and because I don't see the Pastor as having spiritual authority, I am writing the whole church off.  I think the world would be a better place if Imago Dei shrinks because their doctrine is unacceptable.

There is nothing gracious or compassionate about treating women and gays as second class citizens.


well our history here in Eugene has been one that was seriously opposed to a sale tax for years.  Shoot they've been trying since Torrey?  maybe?  Since the late 70's.  But it's a different world now.  South Hills get priorities (seems). council members weren't paid, and we simply fought it tooth and nail.

Now?  It seems every time these irresponsible folks who can't seem to run gov w/in their means....go for another tax to impose on us.  So now that there are so many elite, materialistic people living here then my mind has changed: bring on the sales tax, tax those that have a lot and stop sucking dry the areas that affect the lower class people.  Gosh I have no idea if I'm making sense.  I'm not trying to offend anyone, seriously.  I'm just sick of their greed and irresponsibility in doing w/what they have.  IE? City Hall.


Sorry that I expressed an opinion you found offensive to your delicate sensibilities...next time I'll only make comments that are more politic...not! Me thinks you doth protest too much, though I can't imagine why? it appears to me that you are suffering somewhat from the very over reach similar to what you have accused me of. You were right about one thing and that is that I'm not at all interested in unity but freedom to express thought and opinion.

Take a breath is simply a colloquialism for taking a pause and is not dismissive. Dismissive would be if I called the comments inane which I didn't. I recommended a pause (to rethink) because of the apparent blanket indictment of politics/politicians as something inherently bad and the apparent attempt to disconnect them from their role in leading social change. After all, isn't that the purpose of public rallies to influence public policy by influencing those that make it and implement it? I really don't get what your problem is?


Kai, I have no idea what it's like to be transgender. I can't imagine being so uncomfortable in my body that I'd subject myself to scorn and disdain, rejection, humiliation, even violence. You are in the new group to be ridiculed and targeted. I admire your courage and openness and wish you every happiness and success. My only advice to you is this: get yourself back into school sooner rather than later.


Have you watched the report on Youtube?  RG makes it dismissable, but watching it and seeing their ideas is more interesting and full of things that have actually worked.


Now why would the Donald have to show  entry into the country would hurt American interests?  If he says it, it must be true.  lol


if Justin campaigned on:
taking away free speech
morgaging our children
failing to protect our borders
giving money to terrorists
he would be bang on.


LOL Seriously? how many comments have you had deleted?

You have said NOTHING that makes me uncomfortable, NOTHING.


Dealing with new earth-cosmic content is going to take a lot of sermonizing. :-).
(as has been my personal experience.)
Are theologians up to it???


This will certainly test Altman's recruiting / coaching skill set. Oregon is not an "automatic reload"(see Kentucky, North Carolina, etc.) program. Even Gonzaga with all those good teams in recent years and a tenured head coach, made their first appearance in the Final Fou this season.  We will see what Altman can do!


Props to the Leafs who played hard...a 1-versus-8 series where 5/6 games go to OT.  If my Habs had equaled the Leafs' intensity, the Rangers wouldn't have won a game.  Future for the Leafs looks promising, and good on them.


No stars for you ........


They got the credits, and didn't pay vendors. Using this logic, we should just avoid the middleman, and pay the oillies bills for them.


moon, I just came back from the States and spoke to many women about this march. Some were card carrying Republicans that did not vote for tRump. Several voiced their intent on marching today but am unsure if they are. This is not a protest by the so called 'left' but rather a one of solidarity in all issues relating to women. Not only 'lefties' want the freedom to decide and have choices about corporal matters and other things that effect every American from health care to minority rights etc., etc,.


All that remains is for the aggrieved natives to demand  Ottawa give them  the many millions of dollars left over from the inquiry they sabotaged .  Justin will give it  to them to atone for the colonialism and wear the  headdress he was given, but which will be criticized as appropriation.


"Italian Canadian internment was the removal and internment of Italian Canadians during World War II following Italy's June 10, 1940 declaration of war against the United Kingdom.  Days later, Ernest Lapointe, Minister of Justice, signed the order labelling 31,000 Italian Canadians as "enemy aliens."...between 1940 and 1943, approximately 600 Italian Canadian men were arrested and sent to internment camps....some of the Italian Canadian men interned at Camp Petawawa had ties to Italian Fascist organizations, but had no political affiliation and were probably interned as a result of mistaken identity or because of false accusations."


Where does the buck stop in Trudeau's office? With his secretary?

Did the aide also send a letter to Reuters, who had the same info up at the time that only Fox was contacted?

Does a letter asking for a factual correction also require the whole schpeil about "diversity makes us strong"?


and 1983's Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence.

We're in deep - uh - deep and murky water.


There are over 20,000 known Islamists fundamentalists in the UK, Swedish fire departments in Malmo can't respond to emergencies without an armed police escort and governments from Germany to France to Belgium to Finland (pick one) - dither with political impotence and short-sighted idealism as if hoping for the best is going to fix the growing tide of domestic radicalism and hostility to western values - 'no-go' zones and societies divided by cultural segregation are only expanding as governments do nothing to stop radical mosques and their transplanted preachers from fermenting resentment and hostility to western culture under the guise of pious obligations. It's the perfect environment as uneducated young men are easily swept up in romantic ideas of religious wars and governments do nothing - we get hashtag justice and moments of silence but the mosques known to support extremist views carry on, unimpeded. Europe's issues are going to get worse before (if) they ever get better.


Okay. Now where's your article on the leaked DNC memo for how to "handle" questions from black activists?


For someone who claims it's 'commonly agreed' he didn't collude with Russia, Trump is expending a lot of energy trying to get people to look away from the Mueller investigation. It's a typical Conservative pushback. "Liberals are concerned about that elephant over there, but what about this mouse over here?"
The noose is tightening--soon the unravelling will unfold on live TV.

Just one of most DHSS employees- blindly following the Democrat 'goodthink' .


The majority of Venezuelan people made and chose the bed that they would sleep in, hence they should sleep in it forever.


Are you kidding? Are you really going to still try and make this sound like a distraction from things the Democrats have done? This is the tip of the iceberg and these two guys are going away for a long time. In their plea bargains, we will almost certainly see them testify against other members of Trumps campaign and perhaps Trump himself. This is a huge story and you diminish your integrity beyond repair trying to deny this fact. FYI: Having a dossier about Trump is no illegal and all campaigns have dossiers on each candidate, that's standard practice.


My guess is some of these people will be putting on orange jumpsuits and some people will still be howling about ‘fake news/nothingburgers’

Not a surprise : even after Nixon resigned 30-35% of the US public thought watergate was cooked up by the press.


Parents have a right to know what clubs their children belong to however strange or bizarre they are.


CNN has it's staff digging into everything and everyone associated with Trump. Where were they when Obama was president-elect?  Same place the are now.  Same place they'll be tomorrow because they just don't get it. America is sick of the progressive agenda.

I know, Hillary won the popular vote by 3 million.  Take out LA and NYC votes and she lost by 400k.  Two cities shouldn't have the say in an entire country's future.


Please explain how you unscramble an egg? In my humble opinion I believe you can't...


Again, actually, if we are going by what Jesus says, divorce is the sin.  That is my point.  Jesus states that what God has joined together let no man take apart - so no divorce.  The divorce is the sin that leads to the inevitable next sin of adultery and this is how Jesus describes it.

The church is judging and punishing anyone it withholds Holy Eucharist from because we do not know what is in the heart of the people who have divorced or re-married but are keeping them from partaking.

Jesus did not tell us to withhold Eucharist from anyone for any reason.  He did tell us to decide for ourselves, if we are partaking while holding a grudge against another individual but he did not tell us that unless we are perfect, we cannot partake.  The reason for this is obvious.  None of us is perfect for any length of time on our own merits.   Holy Eucharist is intended for healing, not as a reward for good, or a bribe against the poorly behaved so they straighten up their act.


Hire a pilot with a float plane. Land on the lake and taxi to your dock.
If time is money then it'll be worth it.


"How does Hobby Lobby benefit? First, since the Greens have unshared control of the scholarship and discoveries within their collection, they can also pilot any narrative about an item."

The Catholic church has been "piloting a narrative" about the NT for the past 2000 years (i.e., that Catholic "tradition" is the only legit lens through which the Bible may be understood).   And part of that understanding is that there is only one way to read the Bible - - as a confirmation of the church's unrivaled legitimacy.

Whether the church's narrative-piloting is Truth is for each to decide for themselves.   But it's a bit thick to ring alarm bells because the Green family might also want their say on what the Bible is saying.


You deserve lambasting. Trump fan?


Your father's experience illustrates the point I have made several times. Choose your partner wisely or don't get married. One guy I worked with would change his baby's diaper and feed it in the morning, then leave for work wondering when his wife would get out of bed and start looking after it.

Both my parents were neglectful and abusive. I don't favour one over the other, neither of them got my home address and neither of them got told what motel I was staying at when I was in town to visit my siblings. I had to do that to avoid having my parents show up at the motel and screw us over. Dear old mom banging on the motel door at 6:30 AM and waking up our kids when we were trying to let them sleep in to be rested for the road trip home.

Imagine being suddenly dumped on a street far from home by your mother, at age 10, with a squalling infant and 3 other young children and being told to find your way home with them by bus. That was one of the milder incidents.


Why would Depp condemn violence - according to article today in Daily Mail Johnny Depp's managers 'knew he abused his ex-wife Amber Heard and claim he once violently kicked the actress' Depp apparently enjoys violence, especially against women.


Chief Louis of the Osoyoos Indian Band has provided extraordinary leadership to his members starting with his rule "Be here at 9 o'clock sharp!" "No Indian time."

I had the pleasure of camping at Lake Osoyoos Nk'Mip campground last year. This is one of the many business enterprises going on. And last I heard the Band has full employment. Another rule of Chief Louis. No sitting around doing nothing.


I admire her for wearing her hair naturally curly.


Xavier:
My bad, and your welcome.


you are a nut job! oleary policies INCLUDE immigration thus such issues ARE what this is about, , can you give your stupidity a break for even a second?


I'm calling BS on this post...
If you buy your smoke/CO2 detectors from a dollar store, ya you could have some problems with them, but  then again you get what you pay for. If however you buy a name brand like Kidde from a reputable store like Home Depot or Lowes they'll work......Guaranteed.
Kidde is the largest smoke/CO2 detector manufacture on earth, they test their products over and over before packaging them, there's no way they're going to be associated with a defective smoke detector as long as you do your part and keep the batteries fresh. Can you imagine the lawsuits and recalls they'd face?, their products are everywhere, hotels, office buildings, hospitals and schools.


Sounds like a Justice Minister that  will not be working for Canadians but only for Indians. Trudeau sure had a hate Canadian campaign before he came into office. Canada is more divided since Trudeau came to office and his ministers have been actively supporting a hate whites campaign.


I'm shocked....shocked that Republicans would screw the little man/woman and give tax break$$$ to the wealthy....I thought they were the party of the lil man and lil business....I guess all those charter jets cost money and how could the millionaires and billionaires afford to take them without another tax break.


You would need figures on convictions in the different jurisdictions to get a gauge on what is a reasonable unfounded rate.  You can't assume that any particular not founded rate is what should be expected until you have done the research.  If jurisdictions with low unfounded rates also had low conviction rates, that would suggest they are charging too often. If conviction rates were similar across the board that would suggest that either the police are doing a good job or that more charges could be laid. The two New Brunswick towns would make a good initial comparison. In the case of smaller jurisdictions, you might also need to know how many reports were at issue.


I and my wife are inpatient hospital RNs and although a full-time hospital acute care RN can easily earn over $100K regular annual pay these days (not to mention overtime pay too), but it really helps to be younger (which the wife is in the article) to put up with these stress of a full-time hospital acute care RN job.  The expectations of job performance are high (life and death) and getting tougher.  My wife and I (both older) now only work 4 days a week part-time, otherwise we would burn out (our son also has health issues which can result in almost a full-time care job on the side).  Even with our wages, which are still considerable for Hawaii, we can only keep up with our $300K condo mortgage, so I have no idea how they are pulling this off at twice the amount.  They appear to be living on the fragile edge and I really wish them luck.


The first sentence is quite simply untrue, as anyone who buys a Koran can see for him- or herself.


You never answered my question.


Learning is not their forte


Yep and oily senators can keep oily private jobs while pfd pays their private salary with tax credits.


I am sure he is like Father Z and feathering his nest with the mites of widows and orphans who he has brainwashed into thinking he is doing God's work.


I don't know the language of the law, but would it include male facial hair?  Will men have to be clean-shaven in order to access public services?  Frankly, I hope the bill is general enough to raise this issue, as I'd love to see the havoc that would ensue.


Nixon thought the same thing.  The red states (South) will never go along with impeachment.  Then Barry Goldwater, a right-wing extremist himself, broke the bad news to him. That;s when Nixon went nuts and General Haig had to intervene and calmed him down with a "Ford pardon deal".  For years thereafter Nixon holed up in seclusion in San Clemente, CA.  It's all in Woodward and Bernstein's book, "The Final Days".


I can see what is the next thing coming down the pike here with the Human Right's Commission and the hurt feelings industry. When the guys go out to their favourite strip club for beers and to see the peelers by order of the commission 84 year old Granny Gertrude will be one of the dancers along with one of them transcontinentals!


For accuracy, here is the full quote.  Familiar?

“You’ve heard about the controversies, the process about the bill…but I don’t know if you’ve heard that it is legislation for the future – not just about health care for America, but about a healthier America,” she told the National Association of Counties annual legislative conference, which has drawn about 2,000 local officials to Washington. “But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it – away from the fog of the controversy.”


Parents should pay for their children’s education.  It’s scandelous how much childless people subsidize parents.


We are taught that the “Sacrament of Marriage is an outward sign of Inward grace” this grace is manifest by reciprocal love given by those who love Him in their unhindered participation with Him in the creation of new life.

“The two shall become one flesh” and the Truth of this statement can be seen in any offspring the couple may be blessed with.

The greatest gift we have received is the gift of life, given by God through the action of our parents, refusing to fully partake in His creation by deliberately denying another the opportunity of life, is sinful and this sin is known innately by mankind

Are we taught the right use of our own sexuality In HV, does the Church point us beyond itself and ourselves to a horizon way beyond mere sexuality in that of serving the Truth.
How can the Church restore the full value of her teachings which have been rejected by so many over the last five decades through human weakness?

The depths of your ignorance are unfathomable.


So this is essentially an awful report. 88 thousand people lose full time jobs to be replaced by lower paying part time jobs. This should be the headline.


How about if we just send all of our politicians to the moon?


What a weak headline. Zuma's actions "are" not "appears" to strengthen his state capture hand. Or is there still doubt that he is for SA and not himself? Shame.


And only land owners could vote then. So true, most of the founding fathers were slave owners including Jefferson, Madison, and Franklin. All good men, but not removed from the hypocrisy that has been with us since the beginning. I'll never buy that notion that they were "just men among their neighbors." They knew exactly what they were doing. Franklin, in his old age did a big reversal on his whole legacy as a racist.

The word infringement is used a lot in the early days. When they delivered the hypocritical logic behind the tenets that became the EC later on, they never came right out and said it was to escape infringement on their way of elite life. And now, not much has changed. It keeps coming back to haunt us.


Except that Tulsi isn't doing anything at all to stop mass murderers.  Not even lip service denouncing the mass murder, much less the murderer.


Because Quebec is predominantly French and I've seen their hate-campaigns against their Muslim communities.  They tried to implement the same time of repressive measures that their European counterparts did.  Apparently they spoke with French accents, as well.  Reasonable supposition they were French.


Amazing,
Comments keep despairing, mine included.
I believe you need to adhere to the Obama's and Justine narrative after some explosive attack, "Islam has nothing to do with it"
Would they let it be then?


Haha!  Somebody was joking yesterday that he's the first QB in NFL history to get paid $16 million for NOT playing.


You get the plot for the worst movie Samuel L Jackson ever made?


How does a few anecdotal examples equate to the death of banking and rise of credit unions?

I could respond that within 2km of my home I have seen at least 5 branches(not all the same company) open brand new locations.  Banks will open, close or relocate branches based on customer demand and operating efficiency.

Obviously with internet banking, phone banking, ATMs and branches being open upwards of 7 days a week and evenings the model has changed drastically over the past 10+ years.  The need for having a branch within walking distance of each neighborhood simply doesn't exist anymore.

That said I would have to drive past several big 6 banks to get to the closest credit union.


The world is simple for people who are ignorant. You are ignorantly assuming people are always born with either male parts or female parts, not both, or neither.

Perhaps you should do more research (try Googling "intersex" or "hermafrodite"  ) on the oddities that your god created and that these people deal with daily, along with fighting against ignorance like you and MC spews.

I'm so sick of ignorant religious conservatives whose mouth is open far more often than their brain.


I think that makes a great deal of sense - showing Trump and his acolytes that China stands up to bullies.

A world were we have 3 major powers all Wllie-Waving isn't going to be fun.


As soon as I see the opponents to the income tax push for the elimination of the oil tax credits and other dodges, and increasing the tax/royalty rate for extracting our oil, I'll believe they're serious about solving the issue.

I can go along with further state reductions, but I want to see a commitment to increasing oil revenue.  Oil is nonrenewable.  Someday it will run out, or the world energy market will change and the demand will go away.  We need to bank as much revenue as we can before that happens.  Letting the oil companies milk us like a cash cow does not serve our purposes.  They couldn't care less about us.  They just want to maximize profits in any way possible.  We need to behave the same way.


`John
I cannot believe that you are serious John. The US and Vietnam, Panama, Cuba, Iraq......................What have the Muslim groups done that was not retaliation for US action. The US is a loser. Every war since WW2.

When is it going to win, whatever that is. The  good men are trying to warn those who have not been noticing the propaganda. The propaganda is outstanding John.


"The farther up the income scale you are the greater the opportunity to defer or avoid taxation."

No matter how many times you post that canard, it doesn't make it true.


That is a not  'fact' only if you agree with what some people who weren't party to the discussions believe.

That is a statement of my opinion.

Keep looking.

With as many 'disagrees' as I have posted since they were available, I'm confident you will find a few.

I'll leave it for others to note your 'disagrees'.


Then let me explain it for you. The government is telling the employer how the employee must be compensated at the expense of the employers right to worship in accordance to their own conscience. No one, repeat, no one, is saying that an employee can't choose to spend their money on contraception, the objection comes from having the government tell the employer how they will spend their money. When the government decides what commerce you must participate in or face a punitive tax for your non-participation in that commerce it is dictating how you will spend your money to you. It is really no different in principle than saying you will be taxed as a punishment for not donating to the charity, or the religion, of the government's choosing.


And you have redefined the term "common sense."


You should know all about pandering.

Paul, my point is that the size of the PERS deficit is an important policy input.  The higher the deficit, the more pressing the problem.  Because PERS manages a huge portfolio, if the market goes up then the deficit goes down.  By artificially (and that's putting it politely) fixing on the $22 billion figure, it raises the odds of a meat ax approach to the problem.


'The government says this is an "unintended" tax advantage that is primarily used by higher-income individuals who have savings that go beyond the annual contribution limits to Registered Retirement Savings Plans and Tax-Free Savings Accounts.'

Yet Trudeau has slashed the TFSA limit as well.  And for a small business owner to pay himself a salary (vs. dividends or retained earnings) he/she will soon need to pony up 12% payroll tax as CPP is 'enhanced'.

The only 'unintended' aspect of this reform is opportunity cost of government revenue, in the form of reduced hours, early retirements, relocations, and even foregone small business formation.


This so-called "country music" can go the way of the NFL. Good riddance


You're hitting some good points Motley.  Most of these folks can't afford to pay attorneys by the hour and employ teams of expert witnesses at extensive cost.  Attorneys might not want to take these claims on a contingent fee basis and probably wouldn't want to advance the costs for expert witnesses since the damages for any one claimant are relatively modest.  If the claims went to trial the attorney time would likely be over 100 hours and maybe several hundred hours.  Any attorneys hired by an insurer for the owner would be paid by the hour as they performed work.  About the only way litigation would make sense would be some sort of class action suit with shared costs for the experts and attorneys.


Thank you for responding to my interjection urr injunction. I think your very confused. You need to leave and leave her alone and you need to do it now! There is no perhaps, possibly or maybe in this conversation, unlike you I don't get confused easily or distracted by bright lights. You are insecure and have serious issues that you need help with. This is a news commentary and a working collective group of people. In your level of thinking the entire above means, GET LOST! Come back after you have grown up.


In 1994, I made a personal prediction to many of my friends and associates that the ANC's rule would only last for 25 years.  I didn't see who would replace them but knew in my bones that their rhetoric of "A better life for all" would never take place under the ANC........  My predictions are coming true - maybe even before 25 years.....


No mention in this article of Mr. Ebel's father, Jack Ebel, longtime close friend of Governor Hickenlooper, who Mr. Hicenlooper threatened a channel 9 reporter with losing access, if any more questions were asked of their private meeting.

 They both admit the issues discussed between our governor and Jack Ebel at that meeting focused concern on the incarceration conditions much like his son's. Soon after that private meeting, his son was mistakenly release fro prison, even though he had acted out violently his entire time in prison.

 I find this all rather odd, even though the governor states Jack's son's name, was never mentioned by name, in their private meeting. Hard to believe that excuse!

Must be like that illegal dishwasher that worked in one of then Mayor Hickenlooper's restaurants in Cherry Creek. One who premeditatedly murdered a Denver Police Officer, Mr. Young. What did the mayor say once when questioned on that, oh yeah, I remember, "The buck doesn't stop here!".


Please look up the meaning of the word "inferred" - you meant "implied."


There seem to be too many organizations and summits, with overlapping but not identical members and agendas.

Why not generate hydrogen locally with solar power.  This would allow us to store the solar energy for use when the sun isn't shining. Granted, there are a lot of infrastructure challenges but this would give us local control and free us of being dependent on shipping a fuel source into Hawaii..


Yeah, that, too.  I don't recall ever seeing any valid evidence to support your claims....probably because none exists.

So, given that the bottled water you sell contains fluoride, as well as calcium, magnesium and potassium, and, in all likelihood, arsenic, then how do you justfy selling a product to be consumed by the public, which you, yourself have clearly and repeatedly demonstrated that you belive to be unsafe for human consumption?
.

Is the public aware  that you consider the contents of your bottled water to be unsafe?  Is your liability insurance carrier aware of your constant proclamations to that effect
repeatedly plastered all over the internet?

Wow,what a wonderful and insightful article.


No return to sanity. Canada has not produced a consumer class to buy property. There is still no hope for me, a common man, of entering the housing market this decade or possibly ever in my lifetime because WAGES are still impotent.


Kind of like Rosa Parks "picking a fight" with racial discrimination?


Yeah I have a problem with public school funding going toward private schools that discriminate against student ethnicity.  I'm going to do the research and I'll venture to guess that there isn't a Supreme Court ruling that takes from public school funding and gives to private schools.


I agree with you, but it is a start...and that is important.  "Mighty oaks from little acorns grow", etc., etc.


Oh bless your heart! You're the last person who discovered that people without health care die.  Have you visited a cemetery lately? I have - because I know people who DID NOT GET CARE AND DIED.

Why this Government would priorities relations China  with its heavy handed state control, questionable motives and expansionist tendencies over India , a full democracy with a 350 million "middle class"  and a member of the Commonwealth, belies understanding.

Richard, Spending your entire working career collecting garbage does not mean you should spend your retirement redistributing it!


Trump's immigration speech was more vile rant than complex thinking.  Saying he will deport anywhere from 2 - 11 million people in the first hour of his presidency is just not possible.  The best way to curb illegal immigration is to penalize the employers that hire them.  But then that would include the Donald himself.   Actually changing the tax code to favor American workers would mean he couldn't get his hats made in China.  He would have to deport his models.  I demand to see his wife's birth certificate.


Monica, I really appreciate your calm, theologically well thought out, and realistic comments and observations on so many topics. Your opening sentence in paragraph 2 is true on many levels. My pastoral involvements reflect this in many areas.  People are important. My favorite quote from B XVI reminds us anthropomorphically that each of us is the consequence of a thought in the mind of God, important, necessary, and not an accident.  With all that is going on these days, I pretty much use these words as an operational focus.

You have a gift of expression, and thanks for sharing it.


.....but it all amounts to inherited social standing and the fact that women, no matter their class, do not have the same rights and privileges as men.[JD]

Yet,  2 of most powerful rulers are women-Daenerys Targaryen (with a little help from her friends..Mother of Dragons) and Cersei.


Wynne's act is over ... she can shuffle off stage right and keep on going and her nephew Junior can join her.


How ridiculous. It's a business selling its products to thousands of medicinal patients statewide. How do you expect to run a business without the product demanded? It's simple demand and supply. The officials are showing themselves to be petty and overreaching. They may be trying to teach a lesson, but the truth is, they have no place to do so. They won't be the ones teaching us a lesson, we the people will be teaching THEM a lesson by showing that none of us well be deterred from exercising our rights. The feds are obviously anti business here.
