| DrCaleb, thank you for replying. I was asking about long-range missiles launched from Russia. My understanding is the Ukrainian defence force has kept tanks and artillery far enough from Kyiv that they're out of range. Russians are using missiles because that's the only thing with enough range to re... |

| I could give examples from my childhood. When a bully attacks you, if you do nothing but defend then the bully will just escalate and continue to push the attack until he wins. The only way to stop a bully is to counter-attack. Show him that if he attacks you, he will get hurt. Russia is launching m... |

| COVID restrictions are making us into a total police state. Don't you see the contradiction of your statement? When government imposes draconian restrictions on working people or small business, you think it's acceptable and doesn't go far enough. When government imposes restrictions on rich people ... |

| If you argue "Personal responsibility is not the pervue of the Government", then that means they don't have the right to impose restrictions. |

| So you were complaining about Charter Rights, and the right for a citizen to enter Canada is actually a charter right. [huh] An American entering Canada from California is not a citizen. I lived in the United States for a while: in a suburb of Richmond Virginia for 6 months in 1996, and Miami Flori... |

| First you complain about all the restrictions governments have put in place to try and keep the virus under control, saying they violate the Charter. Fair enough. But here you're complaining about the Manitoba government opening its borders, whereas closing them was itself a violation of the Charte... |

| This does have to be dealt with. A former director of Emergency Services in Alberta posted a video last March (2020) saying they had procedures and protocols for pandemic. He saw 4 pandemics in his lifetime before COVID. He would NEVER do what they're doing. Long term care homes should have been loc... |

| Ok, you call news reports from mainstream media "rumours". Fine, here's a report, website is the NCBI, a US government agency. Interesting, although media news reports said 1,000 patients, this report says 3,737 patients, of which 3,119 were given hydroxychloroquine (HCQ). Does that make y... |

JaredMilne,
That sentence does not mean what you claim it to mean. If any court were to agree with you, that would mean the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is meaningless. Your argument demonstrates my point: that Canada is under attack. This is a concerted attempt to destroy our country. |

| Early on medical researchers found hydroxychloroquine works. No. There has never been a medical study that showed hydroxychloroquine made any positive difference to anyone suffering from COVID-19, and in fact the side effects from it can be harmful. You can look up the studies I quoted the in the C... |
