I find the whole thing sad and ironic because I think if any of us were to pen the Koran in the modern era, maybe with the important identifiers changed, we could well be charged with authoring hate speech given what some sections say about non-believers (Jews in particular), homosexuals, women...

The latest today is that he wants his bail conditions relaxed to allow unfettered, unsupervised visitation with his hate-spewing sister. The NP article also mentions that he is a nursing student in Red Deer. Presumably he'll need some sort of waiver to actually work in healthcare once he...

RIP, Sam. The Right Stuff is amongst my favourite movies, in large part because of his portrayal of Chuck Yeager.

Omar Khadr: Eff that guy. That is all.

Turkey needs to go. No place in NATO for frenemies.  They are increasingly Islamist and at odds with the interests of other member nations - thanks to Erdogan.

Oh...an afterthought...is this split from the "Woodworking" Thread, or has that always been entirely separate?  ;D

I would definitely think that if the situation involved any...um...ingredients?...purchased with public funds (like, say, CLP, for example), then there could be a role for MPs. Just sayin'.

No tears shed, muthaf$&kr. "Canadian", eh? Not even close.

I chuckled, but then was saddened by the accuracy of level 4, I believe it was...law enforcement walking away from gang rape.  This cartoon is not too soon, in my opinion, and not nearly as insensitive as  the collective willful ignorance of the West's liberal democracies in not naming these...

Me too. Not the sort of fellow we should count amongst our "friends".

Meanwhile, the PM has expressed "outrage". What a bad-ass.

To echo what was said above, I love starting the week with a feel-good news story. Too bad Trudeau and McCallum think he still deserves citizenship.  "A Canadian is a Canadian is a Canadian", after all. Bullfeathers.

www.cpgear.com Basically indistinguishable from the real deal, great & quick customer service. A fairly frequent go-to for new members at their wit's end with the sometimes less than speedy pace of receiving identity tags through the conventional mechanism.

Re: the above post: 'splain to me why Turkey is still in NATO? After the last couple of years of frankly being a hindrance rather than a help in dealing with ISIS (porous border, anti-Kurd activities, perhaps facilitating sale of black-market ISIS oil), their increasingly less and less secular...

So basically two premiers who possess critical-thinking skills, four who are delusional, and four who've had the political savvy to not comment yet.

I have no relevant expertise to comment on the tactical utility of convoys, but I'd offer the uneducated strategic opinion that maybe we (the West) should recognize that while we have differences with Russia and China, perhaps these should be shelved for the moment in favour of joining efforts...

Nope, that's not how it works. Technically we report to the Governor General.

I've had that thought daily since Monday, and that I'd dearly love to hear that briefing.  I really hope it's a good old-fashioned " 'splainin' " that JT gets. Currently he has no clue, from the mundane (calling LAVs "Jeeps") to the broad strategic (announcing to our allies on Day 1 that "we're...

I'm totally with Eye In The Sky: A war worth fighting is a war worth fighting to win. In War Two, winning was defined as unconditional surrender. This is really only practical with state actors. Non-state actors such as ISIS demand a paradigm shift to a different end-state. Denying them...
