SGF I take it that you were talking tongue in cheek when you said that 60 wasn't bad? That probably included the press and babes in arms. I am a child of the 60's and grew up watching people turn out in the thousands for protest marches. This isn't even a slim minority, this is fringe element. ...

It doesn't matter how well they are doing in the polls they passed legislation that the election dates are fixed unless there is a motion of non-confidence that defeats them. Mr Harper cannot call an election until Oct of 09. The calling of an election is entirely in the hands of the opposition...

The fact of the matter is that it's the Liberal Party who do not want an election. They are broke and have an extremely weak leader who will not fare well under the harsh glare of a 60 day campaign. Contiual gaffes and a lack of coherent policy, other than "see how dedicated I am to Kyoto...I...

A whole 60 people...woooooo....and Scott Taylor was there key note speaker if you can believe it!! (Disclaimers and what not) Marchers call for peace, not war Halifax joins other communities protesting Iraq, Afghan conflicts By CLARE MELLOR Staff Reporter Sun. Mar 16 - 5:20 AM Anti-war...

That's like saying that someone hasn't been raped or murdered until the legal system finds someone guilty. Mr Dion made a statement which defamed Mr Harper and the Liberal Party has printed those same defamatory remarks on their website. If in fact they are found to be untrue then the Liberal...

Wow that would be a little rough taking a Yag out there. We usually went to Friday Harbour and the Gulf Island flesh pots and terrorized the Legion Halls at night!! ;D

He is the Captain of the ship and their webpage has printed libelous things which are un-substantiated by evidence. He actually did libel Harper outside the Commons...I watched it on the CTV news...they had to press him to be specific but he finally did accuse them of attempting to offer a bribe.

Love the look of those little beauties. As one who spent MARS training in Minesweepers, YFPs and YAGs I would say there's a lot of romantic nonsense about open bridges. I can remember a particularily cruel, stormy night on the bridge of HMCS Chignecto (sweeper) trying to keep my Nav notebook...

I'm getting a kick out of Dion and company yelling about the PM being a bully because he's sueing them for libel. They know the rules and should learn to abide by them. If you libel or slander someone outside the House of Commons without proof you are open to a lawsuit, whether they are the PM...

It bugs me that the media keeping saying that people don't understand why we are there and the Government has some "splaining to do." the mission was explained when we went there...there is plenty of stuff written about it and lots of info for the reading....it is the media that isn't bothering...

Wow.....I cant decide if I like the hair or the shoes better.....then there's that variation on the Volga Boatman at the end....really bizarre...but they all looked like they were having fun.

+1...badges sometimes get a conversation started but it's not about me (the padre) it's about whether I'm there for the troops or not.

Sometimes the service at Tim's really does leave a lot to be desired. One thing they seem to have stopped doing all together is putting a napkin in with your order. It's too late when you're on the highway looking for somewhere to wipe your hand! (I know I know...I shouldn't eat and drive but it...

Interesting developments in NS.S\ Shared with usual disclaimers N.S. needs clearer standards for Taser use: report Updated Wed. Mar. 5 2008 11:05 AM ET The Canadian Press HALIFAX -- A review into police use of Tasers in Nova Scotia says the amount of officer training "differs significantly''...

I don't think I was being hysterical or un-calm....I was responding to the fellow above you and not yourself who posted something about a Journalist's conference in which they were being advised to be fair when printing articles and pictures about other cultures and races which in my opinion is...

I'm not really sure what your problem is with the MSM trying to give a broader coverage of Muslims and eastern culture. Muslims as a Religion are as diverse as Christians and Westerners...I think it's a good thing not to play to stereotypes in coverage of complex issues. Is every Muslim a...

Haven't even won a coffee yet....grrrr

Well just shows that you don't ride a motorcycle. I put 12-13000K on my bike annually on the East Coast. In Esquimalt, like I said you can go out to Sooke...or up island and then you're done. The Maritime provinces have more places to go.....south shore,,,,annapolis valley, eastern shore, cabot...

I understand complexity issues that were mentioned however I think that if we can do it quickly for C17s we can get it done quickly for these birds too.

I think it's commendable that the Sask government is helping this family out. I'd like to think they'd do the same for other folks who find themselves in this dilemma too....if we can waste billions on gun registrys and adscams it won't bankrupt us to help people having babies. I much prefer the...
