Ugh. Anyone driven through Merritt, BC? Terrible murals of country singers on walls all over the place. Their dead staring eyes haunt me.

I'm moving to NL so I wanted to get some background to their history and politics. Are there any readings that could be recommended?

What I want to know is what the ndp were doing with that football defense maneuver. You can block a guy from speaking by standing in front of him? Is that some parliamentary rule or something?

Don Cherry has a place on Wolfe Island and is apparently a Deacon or something at one of the churches over there, completely different person.

bunnyofdoom posted:The conservatives are using it to fundraise for the record too Well, gently caress. Thanks for reminding me that there are things I hate more than form over substance political drama queens and brainless HoC theater. Doesn't matter. My monthly donation is staying cancelled. I will either donate it to charity or use it to give myself alcohol poisoning while poo poo posting on an Internet comedy forum. Better use either way.

Facebook seems like an internet portal into hell and I still do not understand why so many people continue to use it. imgur has all the cat gifs and youtube has all the cat videos, what else is there possibly to gain from the internet? e: Oh yeah we need more NDP is shooting themselves in the foot anecdotes: not a single person I know supports the NDP running on this dumb angle. They still dislike Trudeau for trying to play hall monitor but since he was quick to apologize that seemed to be enough for most people to forget it. I wish it would go away but our politics is so boring normally that this is going to last until loving September. Furnaceface fucked around with this message at 02:31 on May 22, 2016 |

I don't even know why she's so upset about it. How many people get to say "yeah the PM elbowed me in the tit once". Like that would be my go to drinking story forever.

I've been making jokes about the situation since day one, but it is a little unnerving how quickly the "It's all Ruth Ellen Brousseau's fault" narrative caught fire. It feels like every tar sands caveman decided to vomit their opinions about "Bitch had it coming" on to the internet at once.

Pixelante posted:Okay, sure... doubling down is a thing you could do. I'm sure she's getting some horrible abuse over this, and yeah, ok, let's condemn that, but the initial "issue" being so loving stupid in the first place makes people reluctant to stand up and defend her from the horrible and disproportionate reaction.

It's not exactly a surprise to me that the people bitching the loudest about this online are the ones who want to constantly assert their incredible manliness while accusing a woman of faking pain and crying victim. You'll also note it wasn't Brosseau who tried to turn it into this amazing masterstroke counter-attack on the liberals, that was all Tom (and Niki and Rona). All she did was get in the way of JT's elbow and say "yes it did in fact hurt" Juul-Whip fucked around with this message at 04:58 on May 22, 2016 |

I will join a Vancouver goon meet, on the condition that CI do a dab with me in the spirit of chillaxing a bit. The rest of you can have dabs too, of course.

Sweet zombie Jesus we really are going to be talking about this until September arent we? This government is poised to gently caress up assisted suicide, voting reform, a chance to start moving our economy away from oil reliance, and (it would be criminal for me to not mention this for CI ) marijuana legalization and its all going to be ignored because our PM acted like a 12 year old and the other parties had to try to one up him on acting childish.

Lots of things hurt, and only some of them are worth complaining about. She doesn't seem to be making a huge deal out of it, which is good. What's not good is Tom Mulcair throwing a hissy fit over it and Niki Ashton rambling on about "safe spaces" like a crazy person.

Since the Supreme Court struck down the assisted dying laws, it will be de facto legal in February even if the government doesn't introduce a new law. Will be very interesting to see how the CMA deals with that and if any individual doctors actually do it.

Scaramouche posted:shouldn't this be a larger part of the story then? Or is it ok because Everyone Does It or sonething. As someone posted several pages ago, Trudeau didn't need the Conservative whip in the first place: quote:...a closer glance at House procedure reveals that the prime minister didn’t need to clear Brown’s path, and the whole thing could have been avoided if the chief government whip, Andrew Leslie, had just sat down.

Whiskey Sours posted:Does this mean that the Prime Minister, the Government Whip and the former Opposition Leader don't understand House procedures? Given the number of times the LPC have already almost lost a vote because they keep loving up quorum, probably. This happened when the Cons first took over the House, so it's not entirely surprising, but jfc guys get a handle on your lobby director situation.
