Maybe theres a hidden deal with Germany in play

There is no right to ‘Religious Neutrality’ in public spaces, there is only the right to not have the government push it on you. A private citizen can broadcast a religious message as much as they wish. Specifically as Canadians we all have the right to freedom of thought, opinion, and...

See I don’t buy that argument. The problem with it is basically anyone can twist it to their advantage which is why I take a absolutist approach. Who gets to decide who should have rights or not? Who determines who shouldn’t have them to ‘protect’ the others? Again since no one here has...

Take the average income number for the year I mentioned and put it in the inflation calculator. Thats where I get my numbers.

I suspect your right, it suits our ruling class to leave him there instead of declaring him persona non grata. That being said when the US was doing their annexation talk we should have sent him packing as a very clear statement on where our sovereignty is.

Again answer me in what way a mosque broadcasting a call to prayer during reasonable hours at a reasonable volume harm you or anyone else? Explain to me what charter right you feel it violates because I can list which rights are violated by a complete and total ban on it. My point about...

Freedom of thought, opinion and EXPRESSION would be the part that allows you to amplify your religious message. There is no right to not see or hear things that may offend you in a public space. As much as some believe there is. Freedom of religion means the freedom to practice it, which...

Oftentimes I make more money than my boss as a tradesman. Technically his salary is larger but if I was to work the amount of hours he has to I would make more.

And I rally against the government when it impinges on the rights of others such as your example. A number of people would be wrong then. And they also have the right to be wrong. The right to freedom of expression, thought, and opinion would cover that. You can dislike whatever you want, for...

Not really bitter, just don’t care for hypocrisy.

I get not wanting a call to prayer going out, I don’t like it either. But not liking something doesn’t mean I get to dictate special rules for others when I won’t apply said rules equally. Defending people’s rights means defending the right of people to do things I don’t like as well. If...

So just because they aren’t actively killing anyone today it’s ok? Whats the statute of limitations on such events? Considering Christians were well involved in genocides up to the 20th century including in this country, if your saying Islam shouldn’t be allowed neither by the same logic should...

There is also a lot of people who are excellent at fixing things/doing the trade who aren’t good at the leadership side of things (and vice versa). I have met people who got promoted to management because they were great at the trade and then proceeded to be the worst managers as that isn’t...

Christianity lays claim to the same principles. Just because they don’t actively practice it today doesn’t mean it can’t be justified under their teachings. ‘Kill them all and let god sort them out’

Then change the constitution. If they can’t gather the support necessary then clearly it isn’t the issue you are making out of it.

I think it has to do with the fact Democrats are more likely to mail in vote as opposed to Republicans. Being able to remove those not counted by election day helps swing the election in their favour. Add in the Republicans like to point to the ‘huge fraud’ in mail in ballots as ‘evidence’ of...

Still a slap down. If you don’t like the constitution there is a process to amend it (hence all the amendments). Trump sought to circumvent it and the established norms of over a century. Good on the judiciary for standing up for what is right.

Not harsh enough. Innocent people could be sitting in jail directly as a result of her gross negligence as well as guilty people being free. To me this is capital punishment worthy. Reading the article it seems at least one of her motivations was laziness. Never underestimate the amount of...

Sure, have it start clawing back at 41k and fully end at 50k, I am perfectly fine with that. Considering that is still more than you make on a minimum wage job at 40hrs a week it is a reasonable threshold. That would keep the money going to those who actually need it and keep it out of the...

You talk as those those who go to work 40+hours a week aren’t sacrificing as well. You are talking about the mythical hardworking man who managed to achieve wealth against all odds. It’s a myth, in existence to keep your average joe believing they too can be part of it if they work hard enough...
