Canadian Politics Redux
I guess having a new thread goes nicely with having a new government. :) So Trudeau is ending Canada's bombing campaign in Syria and redirecting that money to more humanitarian efforts. I for one and very happy about this. That is more along the lines of what Canada is about IMHO.

Law Enforcement. The Good , The Bad and The Abusive
Will preface this with I do respect the multitude of men and woman who do this work with distinction. That said, I figure this will be an abuse heavy thread. I will try to also offer comments/links/stories of cops who live the usual "protect and serve". What I cannot or will not respect or defend is L E. who engage in…

Ukraine
Will putin on the ritz invade? Should the US and NATO go to war over Ukraine? Does it make a difference if its a "border excursion," like running some tanks over a farmer's field, versus a full-on invasion? Personally, I'm not sure the US should get involved, being anti-war, but on the other hand, I'm not sure not coming…

Should Hunter Biden Run For President in 2028?
Do you think Hunter Biden should run for president in 2028? He certainly has the pedigree. Could AOC be his running mate as vice president, or vice versa? I'm on the fence on this one. ;)

Keeping Men out of Women's Sports
BC soccer supports inclusion. This allowed XY chromosome children (genetic males) to play on the field with my daughter at the provincial championships this weekend. While my daughter interacted with the larger XY chromosomal goalie, she suffered an injury and her vision is now impaired. I wish that I never co-founded…

Immigration
Starting a new thread since the last one was locked and shows no signs of being opened up again. Another instance of guilty until proven innocent.

End of the American Republic?
All “great” civilizations and/or societies eventually come to an end. I peg it to around 250-300 years, figuring each century allows for an ebb and flow success and failure until there’s a critical mass of too many people living in the past and pining for the ways of old instead of thinking about the future. Energy…

A thread about Bill Maher: The Good, The Bad, and The UGLY!
I know you're not all Maher fans but starting at 2:30 (please post a link with just the last part if you have one, thanks!) in this video, Maher sums up what is really going wrong in this election cycle and American politics in general and probably in our society as a whole. And aren't most of us guilty of incivility at…

obamacare
can anyone explain to me why people are against "Obamacare"? I'm not trying to start a war here, I just don't understand why some people are against it. In the UK we have the NHS - much maligned and moaned about but generally bloody marvellous. Its a comparison but it seems that obamacare is trying to give healthcare to…
