Whether something is a right or an ambition is completely devoid of common sense today. The forcing of people to speak up or to be quiet is foreign to our society that somehow got along quite well most of the time until we started with the pages and pages of rules putting a heavy price on what was o... |

The winds of change are blowing and the conservatives will be left at best with another minority government, but more likely they will be relegated to the back benches of opposition. The Tories should be way ahead in the current mood of the country and they are not. Canadian voters did not elect the... |

There is nothing to be gained by trying to impose civilization on these people, in addition we should not be taking in refugees from these nations that can't behave themselves. Secondly when this stuff begins all aid money should be cut off immediately. Sending weapons to the African Union is not th... |

The American military has been stationed everywhere for years, along with a handful of allies and that really doesn't concern me. What bothers me and has for a long time is when the politicians throw the old New World Order stuff around. New world order was Hitlers favorite statement, he repeated it... |

This country is another example of the tribal mentality that exists. There is an election and when things don't go the right way one tribe kills the other. Worse yet we are letting people like this move into western Europe and America to continue their old rivalries in this country. We are shocked o... |

I think we have a hell of a lot more important concerns than getting rid of the Queen. Besides it is one more sober thought process isn't it, I mean we have the House, the Senate, and the Govenor General and none of them do anything, why tip the balance of power and have someone do something that wo... |

I think the change must come from Canadians themselves, and we must begin to express our opinions openly. If more people say whats on their mind, the society will change, just like smoking laws and the environmental changes. We have remained silent for so long we have reduced ourselves to being our ... |

You are right in that the threat of hate speech or the perception of it makes it impossible to define what hate speech is I think we all know when we are being insulting, and that is different again from hate speech in itself. The Middle East crowd keeps being used as the example. Here is the rub, t... |

For me its not just Muslims, I object to people bringing the old folks in from Europe and India and letting Canadians pay the medical and senior facillity costs.

Again we are letting tribal people dictate to a societal group by correctness. In my view, if there are people from where ever who can't integrate into a secular society then its time to say no more come in. Is it just me or should I be worried about letting a significant number of potencial ememies... |

Albertans forget all to quick, prior to 1947 when they struck oil, these prairie folk were living among the golphers while other Canadians paid the bills. The province of Alberta would benefit from their friendship, or their fanny kissing of the United States. Alberta separation, I am not surprised,... |

In my view it is indeed the government who wanted to privatize the military so they wouldn't have to pay benefits and medical expenses of the injured. The also used the national guard instead of full time troops, The reason? Well they don't have to pay the same benefits making it cheaper to take Ira... |

As for an oil boom, you better believe it, I heard they have bigger reser... |
