There is already Canadian (British?) precedent for some aspects of severing citizenship. On 31 Mar 1949, Newfoundlanders were British (yes, yes, there was that odd 'British subject' category which also applied to Canadians), but like all (most?, if you were somewhat white?) colonials could...

Similar memories from the 1970s, only it was Regular US Army down from Alaska and we were in Wainwright. We hospitalized a few because of cold injuries. Likewise with a few US Marines (though they were Reserves) at the top end of Vancouver Island; but adding wet to mild cool temp lead to the...

This was a documentary that truly showed ". . . the way it was"!

At 0:43 the reporter's commentary: "Plumb says he was on a grassy knoll . . ." Does any sniper want to be associated with a grassy knoll?

Both statements can be true simultaneously. There are more than a few who've attended university and left with a credential but learned nothing of substance. Some studies indicate that as many as 20% of college graduates may be functionally illiterate. Not to suggest that Trump falls in that...

FTFY. I was initially puzzled what phony prize the former VAC minister had created that raised such ire. It was the description of the individual as an A-hole that made me think of the ex-minister.

In a bunker somewhere . . .

Blair, a "lefty"? As the leader who was the face (and prime mover) of "New Labour", he was far from being the stereotypical trade union socialist of the "old" Labour Party. More aptly, a 'new school lefty' - from the right (i.e., posh) schools - in other words, a centrist.

How appropriate that you should use "sun rise" as the example of a "fact" vice theory. The sun does not actually 'rise', it only appears to rise. It's a remnant of language expression when humans thought the earth was flat, that it was the centre of the universe or that the ball of light...

It may not be the smoking gun some hopes for. The Saskatchewan Premier is also a member of the group. https://www.saskatchewan.ca/government/news-and-media/2025/march/20/saskatchewan-joins-governors-coalition-on-energy-security As well as Premier Ford of Ontario...

He had something for almost every circumstance. RIP.

Already done. The Foreign Claims Settlement Commission of the United States (FCSC) is a quasi-judicial, independent agency within the Department of Justice which adjudicates claims of U.S. nationals against foreign governments, under specific jurisdiction conferred by Congress, pursuant to...

And what's wrong with that fashion choice?

And again you don't respond to questioning of allegations that you make. But, "one guy"? Actually, yes. That's how the American system of government has evolved, moreso in the age of Trump. There will be plenty of "advisors" whispering in the President's ear (or more likely tweeting or...

I suspect that even the 50 Greenlanders who list the United States as their place of birth (as counted In their census stats) would find that a poor bargain. BTW - 20 list Canada as place of birth.

I suppose that first you would have to define "who is a Greenlander". As the 56,000 citizens (permanent legal residents?) of Greenland are not exclusively Inuit (85-90%), how would the USA judge those deserving of their largesse? Would place of birth in Greenland be required? Would a...
