I’m talking about on army.ca for a discussion.They are here. Who is organizing all the protests? Supplying the flags and banners? Creating the slogans? Why are these anti Semitic parades still allowed?
This hits the nail on the head, re why I have concerns also...Appreciate your assessment of the criminal aspects both of the terrorism Act and the potential of C-63, brother. In the purity of a balanced government and society, I would believe you are 100%…or at least 99.9999999% right. Here it comes though…BUT, I can’t help but feel that for almost the last ten years (~8.27yrs), there has been both a greater effort by Government to flex/play loose with legislations (intent vs execution), policies and regulations (OICs for weapons, EA, digital news, now C-63) and to include the participation of semi/para-judicial organizations (like CHRC that can put real, demonstrable hurt on people without a concomitant accountability and control as the justice system has in place) to influence more greatly, where previously Canadians could truly trust that they rights and freedoms were not respected and protected…ALL law-abiding Canadians. Don’t get me wrong, I wish the government would actually support this aspects of justice and law enforcement so that for the true haters who are conducting themselves in solid criminally unlawful territory (not just hurt feelings land) could be more effectively dealt with. I just feel as though the way the government is adding little ‘innocuous’ bits here and there into the proposed Legislation and their past track record for generous justification to use generous interpretations of existing legislations, regulations or policies…it’s greeeeasy…

I really believe the head shed of the RCMP has been compromised, years ago.
CLIP: Brock CHALLENGES RCMP on NOT Pursuing Charges for Justin Trudeau
Look, I don't totally disagree with you in principle, but I can't not call out hyperbole when I see it.I have yet to see a single piece of legislation pushed through by this government that is truly intended to help Canadians. I have however, time & time again, seen this government introduce legislation & do things that are in the absolute, total opposite of Canadian's best interests.
I call bull. The dental programme and the pharmacare programme are crap. Indeed the pharacare is nothing more than a list of stated objectives painted to look like legislation. The CCB is the baby bonus redone for the 21st century and is intended to ensure votes from the lower income groups. Doesn't really cost a lot as the 34,000 cap is so low that most exceed it. Legalized cannibis is already coming back to haunt the drug addiction numbers. I will concede the small business issue. Pay equity is an issue that has been developing over the last several decades. That Trudeau and co. actually codified it is good but it only piggy backs on previously existing provincial statutes. It does more to ensure that the feds got caught up to the rest of the country. In return for all these so-called improvements, they have instigated distrust with our closest allies, thrown the Israelis an anchor and not a life belt, attempted to destroy the entire oil industry, ensured that no export facilities for said industries will ever get approved, allowed civil unrest to reach unprecedented levels, frozen bank accounts, chosen to make one group (truckers) a scapegoat for their own inaction whilst allowing a second group (indigenous) to run rampant, burn churches, blockade railways and severely damage expensive systems.Look, I don't totally disagree with you in principle, but I can't not call out hyperbole when I see it.
You're saying NONE of the following was truly intended to help Canadians? I think you might be letting more recent legislation that was enacted in a very tone deaf manor might be clouding your perception.
Canada Child Benefit Act.
Pay Equity Act.
EI Parental Sharing Benefit.
Legalized Cannabis.
Reduced small business federal tax rate from 11% to 9%.
Canada Workers Benefit Act.
Dental.
Pharmacare.
There's a difference between intentions and actions/outcomes. Pretty much everything governments do is "intended to help X", where "X" can be anything from "all Canadians" to "some small group of people". That programs are engineered to attract votes by doing as little as possible while claiming as much as possible, or are measurable failures after inception that ought to be discontinued by rational people who measure what they do and use that to recalibrate or discontinue a program, are separate issues from whether or not intentions were good.I call bull.

When Harper ran out his welcome, the third place party jumped into office (helped tremendously by a Conservative senator challenging their leader to a boxing match and losing badly). The following two elections were a rejection of Scheer and an example of successfully buying the electorate. In other words, the CPC lost an election, followed by two minority governments where the opposition failed to win, more than the incumbent won.Previously Liberal-friendly Nik Nanos describes Trudeau’s Liberals plummeting into “disaster territory.”
At this rate, the NDP are set to pass the Liberals in popularity.

TREND LINE: New polling from Nanos Research
Trend Line's Michael Stittle and Nik Nanos break down new polling data from Nanos Research – and it’s not good news for the Liberal Party.www.ctvnews.ca
Manchurian candidate…Rona Ambrose is a member of the WEF. She wouldn’t be welcome in the party caucus.
no, I just hate to see the Libs given any credit whatsoever.Jesus you're sensitive. What a waste of time and energy.
The claim was that not a single piece of legislation was enacted with the intention of helping Canadians.
Why? Should credit not be given where credit is due? Why can't you hate the libs for all the reasons they deserve hate (and there are many) and simultaneously praise the for any good ideas? Politics doesn't have to be a zero sum game.no, I just hate to see the Libs given any credit whatsoever.
because, I cannot forget the things like his treatment of two female cabinet ministers who lost because they were more ethical than himself or his treatment of a female reporter years ago or yes, his hypocrisy coming through with the blackface photos. I'm sure that he has some redeeming qualities but then so did Billy the Kid.Why? Should credit not be given where credit is due?
