I just recovered from a bout. Took two weeks to beat it. Thankfully I beat it in time for Thanksgiving. My girlfriends dad is getting up there in years, and not in the best of health. Last thing I would ever wan to do is get him sick with anything. This bout was worse then the last time that I had i... |

What would you recommend that he do? Tax the ever living FUCK out of people/companies that own more than 2 residential properties Ban foreign investment buying Push for nation wide development. Provide municipalities with increase infrastructure support to promote it. Rent control (likely provincia... |

I was in two different medical facilities today and no one was wearing masks. You used to be required to put on a mask to enter. The desk where security used to sit at was still there with a pile of masks hanging out, but no security guard. Also the signs stating that masks were required had been re... |

"Woke" is essentially the pre-eminence of identity politics over all else. Really it's the natural extension of the "politically correct" movement that preceded it. I don't have much time for it. JK Rowling, for example. She's been labelled a TERF. I was seeing the most repugnan... |

If the organizers were telling the organized to commit crimes than I would agree with you that the organizers should be on the hook. That's what the trial is for. Look, a 'protest' is when you voice your opinion, then go the fuck home. An 'occupation' is when you say you aren't going to leave till ... |

There does not seem to be a general consensus about Covid these days. The other day I went into a store and every employee was wearing a mask. Every one? That can't be a coincidence. That has to be a store policy. My hotel has gone in the opposite direction. They have removed all of the hand sanitiz... |

Nothing screams kangaroo court more than letting people who had zero interactions with the defendants testify. In keeping with the season, they shot Osama Bin Laden in the face, and he was no where near New York on the 11th of September. Organizers are responsible for the actions of the Organized. ... |

Nothing screams kangaroo court more than letting people who had zero interactions with the defendants testify. Think about it. These people that are set to testify had no interactions with the defendants. They never seen them. They never spoke with them. They were never victimized by these defendant... |

Why is Canada so woke? One of the discussions in the video states that Canadians pride themselves in being nice. The speaker then goes on to say: agreeable people are cannon fodder for psychopaths. The predatory psychopaths have figured out how to cloak themselves in the guise of compassion. Truer w... |

I remember my mother buying a brand new house (built to her specs) in 1978 for $30,000. A $100,000 house at that time would have been inconceivable for her. Nowadays a $100,000 house is merely a dream in most of the U.S. and Canada. When my dad first moved to Las Vegas, he would tell me how great it... |
