As far as I am concerned nothing is living until it can survive on its own, by that I mean a mature baby out of the womb with the ability to breath and eat a "normal" diet. While I am sure there are many who disagree with me, I prefer the way we were 60 years ago where we didnt try to rati... |

andyt andyt: stokes stokes: I hope this lady gets everything she wants from the RCMP. Maybe them paying out a huge amount of money will wake them up to the reality of the modern world. 
Are you laughing at me or the notion of the RCMP joining the modern world? |

Wow...this has nothing to do with the new crime bill and every thing to do with failings in the RCMP. I am in the military and I wouldnt dare try that shit on a subordinate because I know the consequences both professionally and personally. I hope this lady gets everything she wants from the RCMP.

andyt andyt: Why are you all bitching? This is good for Canada, will help to keep Canadians spending their money at home. Now lets give visitors arriving by land a $10 gift certificate, must be spent on a Canadian made product, if they can find one.

No a third world drug bunghole deal is more important than their largest source of tourism. We give them more than tourism dollars, we give them natural resources that they desperately need. Maybe its time to put the shoe on the other foot and give them back what they give us. I am not talking abou... |

The author of that article fails to take several things into account, first and foremost he states that we have ignored our peacekeeping past which I disagree with. The current conflicts in the world are less about nation vs nation where it was clear who the two sides were and therefore easy to keep... |

My point is that the company is not being sold to a group of investors but to another nation, am I the only one who thinks there is a problem with this? I remember 15 years ago when we bitched because we were selling out to the US, we need to control our own destiny. |
