| Fact is that here in BC we are on unceded land. By law--starting with the King George Proclamation of 1563, they own it. Then there's S 35 of our Constitution recognizing aboriginal rights. Then there is several Supreme Court decisions upholding this. Fact is we never conquered the indigenous peopl... |

ShepherdsDog ShepherdsDog: His followers are like those who support Trump. No matter how empty or incompetent he is, no matter how reprehensible he is, no matter what garbage and lies he spews, they will continue to support him and believe his bullshit.

| Instead of fighting about it maybe you should worry about doctors leaving. It's hard to get into a specialist now. This is my concern. You can spin it any way you want. Call it a tax hike or closing a loophole or whatever. If the government is actively doing something that will make it even harder ... |

OnTheIce OnTheIce: She failed to comply, was tackled and arrested.
Too bad.
How do you know this? More likely someone was power tripping and used as much force as they thought they could get away with. |

| It's a matter of perspective. If you had to live with such people on a day-to-day basis you'd eventually get to where I am, too. I didn't used to be this way. I did much of my growing up on Cape Cod and there was no reason to dislike any group at all. Then in 1978 my family moved to Sacramento just... |

| Really interested to see which way this thread goes. how many will say Canada should have paid the ransom vs those who say a rescue should have been executed [popcorn] . No, you can't pay a ransom. Then you've just created a business model for kidnapping Canadians. I'd like to know what if anything... |

| Bottom line: if you want to live in America, prosper from opportunities offered (which you certainly wouldn't have had in Canada) and enjoy the freedoms offered, become an American citizen.

N_Fiddledog N_Fiddledog: RUEZ RUEZ: So somehow this new law is going to prevent a sexual predator from pretending to be a woman to prey on children? Sorry I'm not buying it. Why just children? Are you saying when it's a woman it's OK?
Damn dude, I can't believe you actually asked that. |

andyt andyt: I'm not really clear on why Iraq should or would be honoring British WWI war casualties. The Brits were their allies? ![[huh]](./images/smilies/icon_scratch.gif "huh?") I mean last time the Brits were there, they helped to fuck up the country far worse than what it was.
It's disrespectful to dishonour anyones grave. |
