| True, Germany, New Zealand, Scotland, Wales. They're all know as shit-holes with terrible economies, unhappy residents, poor quality of life and tons of inequality. Then of course you have all the other 3rd world countries running variations of proportional representation like Australia, Austria, D... |

| Child abuse charges against Lucas Morton, Subhannah Wahhaj and Hujrah Wahhaj were dropped because prosecutors missed the 10-day limit for an evidentiary hearing to establish probable cause. I've heard about this and while it's pissed off some of my friends I've supported the judge. New Mexico put t... |

| Now we can wait for the bands who signed off on this project and who are impacted directly by it to sue someones ass off for their loss of income like they did with the Northern Gateway pipeline and for the record I heartily agree with them. Only in Canada could a bunch of malcontents who aren't &q... |

| So to be clear - just for children born in Canada to citizens or permanent residents? Most of us would agree that the children of tourists should be excluded. I think any child of any Canadian citizen, born anywhere, is Canadian. It's not your fault if your wife goes into premature labour in Austra... |

| I don’t support so-called “automatic birthright” citizenship outright as a matter of principle. So you don't support your own citizenship? I support automatic birthright citizenship for children who have at least 1 Canadian parent, regardless of where that kid is born. I do not support automatic bi... |

| Just open your borders and let everyone in. Immigration is a human right, don't you know? Not sure anyone has ever claimed that. Freedom to travel is listed under the UN. Not freedom to go to any country you want and do whatever you want while there and get the benefits of that place for free. http... |

| They'll get it pushed through. It's just a couple of assessments to redo. Hell, now that we're the sole owners of something that expensive, you can bet they'll write a quickie law up if necessary to make that pipeline specifically legal. |

Now you're trolling. Time to stop.
Lol. First rule of the playground. When the other kid gets angry over something dumb, or tries to make up rules that benefit only them, double down cause the fun has just begun.
Doesn't work on adults though. So there is that. |

| A simple solution would be to setup a "kangaroo" court. Have every aslyum seeker immediately seen by a judge. If the case has merit, you can stay. If not, you get a free ticket home. Set an absolute limit of yearly asylum seekers, and anyone past that number, sorry, we aren't the world's ... |
