| Just a late follow-up since the registry is staying for now and everything. I was stating before that I had lost some sympathy for anti-registry people- esp. on the whole "turning us into criminals because we like to duck hunt" arguement. Now I have absolutely zero sympathy and I am willin... |

| If gun registration is free why is free gun registration part of Laytons solution? Also I have yet to hear of anyone complaining about having to get a pal. Clearly there needs to be a way to distinguish who and who should not get a firearm. However I'm sure my local gang member hasn't gotten his PA... |

| As a rural NDPer I was pretty sympathetic to the whole abolishing the registry deal and I'm generally pretty unsympathetic to the police so I don't particularly care for their pro-registry views. But then I actually took my Non-Restricted course and started applying for my PAL and I found I had abso... |

| If high offices of government are dominated by individuals who don't represent the national majority demographics, then the majority will start to feel increasingly alienated from its ruling class. And that is probably a bad thing, in the long term. There is probably some truth to that considering ... |

| Yes I often grow concerned over the sad sorry plight of the white male myself... When a hard working white man can't get a do-nothing politically motivated appointment as Her Majesty's regal representive then this country has gone to hell. In Martin's defense- Jean was probably the best decision he ... |

| Cherry picking two very well known political agitatators. Galloway is a pariaha in the UK. Dr. Mustafa Barghouti was going to speak at a 'conference' on Israeli 'apartheid'. What about all the other lefty agitators? And that's just the profs. There are others obviously- I know Daniel Ellsberg had a... |

| Coulter is a radical from the 'wrong' side. You can say what you want if you are a left-wing, global-warning, sexual orientation driven, multi-cult diversity Israeli hating type but white loonies don't get the same free ride. Would you be lamenting this if the right organized itself and drowned out... |

| The whole UOttawa thing was started by her 'take a camel' thing which is hilarious since its probably the less offensive thing she has said in the past decade. The interesting thing I find about Coutler is that she rarely takes a stand on conservative issue rather she just focuses only on attacking ... |

| Personally the health care debate shows everything that is soulless and wrong with American political system. Though for a Canadian born long after the huge battles over public health care in Saskatchewan it is very difficult to understand. I used to think that having socialized medicine as part of ... |

Not so much anymore- nationalism is sickening- now the Olympics is relatively harmless venue for nationalist feelings but w... |

| Well we are obviously coming from different viewpoints here although I'm a unilingual anglophone as well. I don't really think having a federal government that is able to interact in either offical language with its citizens in any corner of the land that it governs is particulary elitist. In fact, ... |

| Well I will comment on your latest blog post here. First off bilingualism was never concieved of in such idealistic terms that everyone was going to be bilingual- the idea was a bilingual federal government that would act as unifying go-between to keep English and French Canada together. It has work... |

| Personally I would be very disturbed if Jean's little speech or the anthem was not in both offical languages of Canada. That would be like an hypothical Olympics in Quebec City that had the ceremony only in French. Well aside from "post-modern tolerence" West Coast Natives and their distin... |
