Does a $100k+ income couple with three kids whose house was fine and stayed with some relatives for free get more money than a transiently employed couple with no kids whose house burned down? Because if so that's loving hilarious and classic Alberta.

Looks like Christie Blatchford is shopping around for some "off-the-record" material to reinforce her predetermined opinion of the Ghomeshi case. Go editorial freedom, go! http://canadalandshow.com/article/open-response-christie-blatchfords-request-comment

PT6A posted:What do you disagree with? We're selling arms to a poo poo government for no other reason than to make money. I'm not going to say we should continue with it,but as long as we do continue with it there's no reason to make it out as anything other than what it is. I've got to agree with PT6A on this one actually. The government's weak rear end excuses and dancing around are insulting. I'd have a lot more respect for them if they came out and said "times are tough and we need to protect those jobs right now".

I would have expected the liberals to set delivery at 2018 and then strike a committee with the Saudis to discuss humans rights matters with delivery contingent on whatever and then in two years when no one cares anymore dismiss the committee and deliver the tanks with no strings.

I'd be worried about this and see your doctor at your earliest convenience, it's probably a sign of brain damage or alcoholism. cowofwar posted:Does a $100k+ income couple with three kids whose house was fine and stayed with some relatives for free get more money than a transiently employed couple with no kids whose house burned down? Does it really matter when anyone affected by the evacuation has real needs they need to meet right now, and the bureaucracy involved in figuring out who really needs an ultimately trifling amount of money would take for loving ever, be fraught with many complications, and itself probably cost more than the money being distributed at this point? If they've been rich as gently caress, it's not they haven't paid their share in taxes already, so who really gives a good goddamn?

PT6A posted:Then he should grab his nuts and say "yeah, we're selling stuff to those Saudi cunts, we know they're going to kill people with it, and we don't give a fat gently caress!" You do realize no one is disagreeing with the content of your posts right? I can't roll my eyes hard enough over some autistic nerd on a political forum talking about "wusses" and "grabbing nuts" as if they are badass. Aren't you some loving scrawny programmer who works from home? If so, shut the gently caress up with your dumb faux-masculinity, because this is what people are annoyed with. No, in fact, most people DON'T want our politicians to talk like extras on Jersey Shore or Donald Trump, in fact most people want their politicians to speak with some dignity and professionalism. Your vendetta against Dion is literally because you watched one too many CPC attack ads in '08, and has nothing to do with the content of his political position. You literally don't like the guy because he speaks quietly, has a french accent and is bookish. What? Do want loving smarmy Donald Trump types, or maybe Comacho from that movie, shooting a machine gun in the air during a speech? I don't support this sales to Saudi, and no I don't want my politicians to go full retard because some idiot in Alberta is inspired by it

Yeah, if only there were some middle ground between Stephane Dion's complete lack of spine and Donald Trump's bizarre, overdone bravado.... (Hint: There is at least one person in that middle ground, and she's going to be President of the US very shortly!) PS: Why do I get attacked for being against weakness and spinelessness, because apparently I'm a sexist or homophobe as a result for reasons I'm not clear on, yet no one ever catches poo poo for inferring that weakness and spinelessness are qualities associated with people who aren't straight men?

Because calling someone a girly man is usually code for calling them a human being. Also, you use oval office a lot, which would be reasonable if you were from the UK or Straya, but is a pretty lovely anti-women term in North America, which is where you are from and currently reside. I'm sure the PT6A Hate Squad can pull some choice quotes of you painting Dion as a lisping gay stereotype from Connie and Carla, but I'm not going to spend my time looking.

Welcome to the Canpol thread PT6A uses oval office a lot and somehow gets the whole thread to turn to discussions of his sad cigar and wine filled life. Cultural Imperial used to use SJW a lot but really doesnt like weed. Hes improved more than PT6A on these 2 fronts. (edit, the first is probably due to the word filter I just ran into) Thanks for reading.

P-Value Hack posted:Would love to hear a definition of "lack of spine" which doesn't involve a blatant appeal to machoism or masculinity. I'll wait The proverbial "lack of spine" refers to being a pushover who will not stand up for themselves or their principles. If you think that's a feminine quality, then it's either a sad commentary on how our society expects women to act, or evidence that you're painfully unaware of the numerous women who are anything but spineless (and, it should be pointed out, they are no less feminine as a result). Standing up for yourself and refusing to be pushed around or bullied is a positive character trait regardless of gender. I don't see it as masculine or feminine, to be honest.

This is by far the stupidest pissing match I've ever seen in this thread. This is neither debate, nor discussion, and only tenuously connected to Canadian politics, so why the gently caress is it in here and not GBS? Go outside and get some fresh air, get away from the pressing need to wave around your dick on an Internet forum.
