    his youth may be appealing, but his inexperience may work against him a bit. Harper probably had a good amount of respect amongst other world leaders, and Trudeau may be seen as Pierre's "kid". He may have to do some sizable things to overcome this perception.

    He will
    First combat ends in the middle east and peace keeping and humanitarianism returns to Ottawa.
    Next we all get to get really high! On our own home grown stuff because legalization seems imminent.
    Then we get to redirect all that wasted taxpayer money spent on policing, prosecuting and incarcerating people who simply like to get high on pot, and maybe more.
    Then, the scientific method gets put back where it belongs, guiding political decision making, not hocus pocus bullcrap conservative dogma!

    Justin is exactly what America needs right now. a glimpse at what progressive open-minded political leaders will and must do to have any hope of stopping humanities perpetual slide down a self inflicted abyss.
    I remember when, yeah. I swore I knew everything, oh yeah.

    It was interesting to watch Peter Mansbridge on election night visibly hold his dismay as to what was happening. Much like this interview http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/bruce-heyman-u-s-ambassador-isis-mission-1.3282732
    The American ambassador politely holding his tongue and Mansbridge suggesting turdo was "not Canadas pick I swear"!

    I always loved Eric Margolis :smiley:

    I'm just trying to fit in around here! I'm actually starting to like the plagiarism. I see that most here just posts links, but take the time to read the material and gather key points. I guess I got add footnotes and whatnot, but at least it won't upset people for caring about how the government affect ME because as a good little socialist, I should be worried about the state.

    Oh Hugh, I'm really to busy with my own wife to worry about yours. And old Turdy Bills there, not real preoccupied with his either.

    Well, it's really been a slice! Now that the election is over, I really don't (can't) care for the next four years. Let it all play out.

    I've got to get ready to head to South America in a couple weeks. It's one of the ways I spoil myself. Most of you think I'm an asshole, and I don't blame you :lol:
    Politics is like sports to me, I'm the trash talker. The one who gets you off your game. Sometimes I'm saying what I believe. Sometimes it's pure horseshit.
    This may seem like a cop out but I can assure you, it is all too real. 99 out of 100 of you would meet me in real life and we would get along. That's the way It's always been :smile: I show up on game day and I'll always bring it.

    I don't really belong in any one political ideology, I'm just really tired of constantly paying more taxes. Who isn't?

    The remainder of this post is unprovoked (not worried about the white flagger or whatever you call it) , just telling it like it is.

    Truly, if I offended anyone I am terribly sorry. I had some fun. When you talk trash. You are always walking the line. Sometimes you cross it and concuss the quarterback. So to tirdy bills dere, I was really joking around about "drilling for oil". I mean, I'm in love with the most beautiful woman I have ever met (and she laughed at that post btw) and have no desire for any other carbon based life form.

    Despite all this, I do care about the direction of Canada. Cheers eh! I'll be one of those flag waving Canucks in the pit in Santiago and BA, handing out Canadian pins, making friends, swilling wine.
    No hard feelings on this side anyways. Cmon, forgive and forget, that's the Canadian way. :wink:

    So it seems pretty official - Canada ending bombing campaign in Syria, and redirecting efforts towards more humanitarian goals there.
    I support this. That's more what Canada is about. It's nice to see it back.
