    If America adopts Canada's health care system

    That's easy ... it's because there are so damn many 'experts' around that feel that outcomes should take a back seat to socialist dogma!  Case in point: http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/westcoastnews/story.html?id=bc0b2090-d363-491c-9292-4cfeda079582

    There was no ulterior motive or conspiracy: the "unrelated ruling" was to do with the Maher Arar case ... the Security of Information Act (Chretien) was deemed to be insufficiently specific WRT what powers Gov't (in this case the RCMP) had under it.  The RCMP had been under a lot of pressure...

    IIRC, you might have a teeny chance first thing (tell the course staff ASAP: they'll be pissed, but that's better than not having the nec. kit) ... once you get on the bus, there's no going back! Have a great course!

    He answered the question (see your last post), now what else is it that he is supposed to be accountable-for?

    The Chuck Cadman Merged Thread

    Hardly; this has bullsh*t written all over it: the Conservative Party (like all the major political parties) gets part of it's funding through the government (in order to reduce corruption, at least in theory).  They also get funding from individuals and businesses.  This is the vehicle of the...

    US soldier launches puppy off a cliff

    I don't know what screening they go through, but no system is perfect: people always have, and always will, get through cracks.  Assuming the video is real (and if a prank, a very stupid one), there is also the possibility that the individual in question has suffered some form of psychological...

    I'd say this guy needs a smack upside the head, but he deserves far more than that. Richie, your comment is asinine.

    Well, as is often the case, the article has been modified to better-reflect the truth of what happened/is happening.  Specifically, is now Kinda makes a difference, huh?  (The cart goes after the horse ... "How dare you duck when I throw things at you!!!") Instead of "Hammas has stated that...

    Presidential election may be up for grabs

    Too lazy to look up the refs. right now, but the short 'n' sweet version is that he somehow survived Forrestal fire (after being caught in the middle of it), then volunteered to stay on another carrier.  Was shot-down and barely survived (injuries + near drowning) ... he was refused medical...
