Which one? Pick one and the others will be miffed.

Beats me of its purpose - I'm not Catholic - but it gave me a headache.

Could be. In the almost 3 years I spent up there, I never heard it.

Available on Amazon (several variations).

The big problem is the current lakeshore right-of-way doesn't completely accommodate high speed rail in terms of curvatures and grade, plus all of the municipalities it goes through, not to mention all the at-grade crossings that would have to be eliminated (86 on the CN Kingston sub - Dorval to...

Michigan's issue is the proposed crossing of the Strait of Mackinac. I'm not sure they have much issue with the rest. Our issue should be energy sovereignty/security caused by a hostile neighbour.

But, but I thought all of the fire and smoke was from our side. Has Trump been fibbing?

Ha. I never looked at it that way. Perhaps we were policing a bunch of Irish exclaves and didn't know it; although many of the European surnames were Scottish because of the HBC influence.

Or, alternatively, give the island to Alberta. It would give them the tidewater they covet and save them from annexing NWT (which someone said they had a right to do).

Except if you at a smudging ceremony in a small enclosed space and your allergies kick in and your eyes start to water.(to be completely ecumenical, I've been in the front row during a Catholic mass and the 'incense' got to me). Or performing site security for several hours listening to a...

Agree. Reprehensible as the comments may be, it seems he violated State law. The comments defending his actions strike me a legally thin soup. If he was acting in his capacity as a police officer, where is his authority or judicial authorization. I doubt the California legal system allows...

In a non-military-event context that I have been party to, it has been argued that smudging et al is 'cultural' or medicinal ('sacred traditional medicines') rather than religious. View that as you wish. It is also interesting to note that many institutions and municipalities specifically...

I'm surprised this Administration still has someone still employed as a :health envoy".

I mis-stated (or you mis-read). Since this announcement is about locomotives only, I was wondering about the rest of the train they will be dragging around, and that has already been answered. The majority of VIA's long distance, regional and remote service rolling stock is 65-70 years old...

I wasn't aware that Ontario (or Quebec for that matter) had any skin in the game or was expected to pony up for any of the project' although I'm not sure it is at that stage of granularity. Long term capital funding is planned to be a combination of federal public money and private investment...

These will be for the long distance, regional and remote services. No word on the rest of the trainsets.

Your keyword for federal involvement in trade and commerce is 'interprovincial'. Transportation matters solely within a province is provincial. The Trans-Canada Highway is merely a string of interconnected provincial highways that receive some manner of inconsistent federal funding. Even the...

Thanks for the target confirmation?

We don't know the 'culturally inappropriate word' that was used, but at least one source said it was the 'n-word'. If that's true, I have a hard time envisioning a suitable context where a public office holder could use the term.

Kinda like how the Executive has pretty much highjacked the democratic process south of the border and how everybody is so cool with that.
