"Criminals" ??!
Absolutely NOT - remember that in those days the urban poor were regularly gaoled or strung up for minor offences of desperation - e.g. stealing gloves to survive .... Or bonded into service to pay for their passages. The rich/poor divide was the size of the Grand Canyon - the nobility and Church a tiny percentage who exploited the common people. England may have been the worst, France had the French Revolution, there was the Irish Potato Famine, Russian serfs in name only - actually slaves.
The story of urban slum life just prior to and during the Industrial Revolution makes for horrifying reading. I would use the tem "criminal" with a large grain of salt, actually never. And "sociopaths" is truly a stretch  .-(
Spain settled Middle & South America with their surplus "nobility". How did that turn out ?
My sympathy extends to those victims of our not so brilliant humanity back then. They accomplished our current life style, democracy and free market economy of NA.

Amazing, shouldn't he audit come first?

Yes yes becouse the Russians forced allll of America the view  RT television and brainwashed all of America to vote Trump.
Had nothing to do the establishment being outed on fact and a unelectable candidate with far to much luggage, no no it was the Russians and Trump who beat out the Clinton's.
Billions of dollars, a huge ground game , full DNC  support , full establishment support and still they could drag Hillary across the finish  line.
Truly do you lefties hear yourself ???
The establishment has NO credibility left in America, poll after poll have verified the general public distrust with mainstream media.
Leaking debate questions, editorial privledge to the DNC prior to going to print, leaked 10 year old boy talk 1 day before a national debate,  the constant media attacks, deep state leaks , the burning of Bernie and on and on and on.
What really irks you isn't Trump,it's the fact that the gig is up and people aren't as easily influenced anymore.

"The 'defenders of justice'  would be so much more credible if they occasionally accepted that some are guilty."

Not really. Our country (with its "defenders of justice") is all too ready and willing to find people guilty and throw them in jail. We have 5% of the global population and 21% of the world's prisons (with an 80 billion price tag, yearly.) African Americans are found guilty and jailed 5 times the rate of white people. So it is never "occasionally" that some Americans "are guilty" then brutalized by a prison's habitual cycle of punishment. Lots and lots of Americans are always found guilty. We reduce so many people to the "moral" force of a jail cell.


McDonald's advertises Canadian beef and no lie.


Canada's health care system, or collection of to be more exact, has not had "bragging rights" for generations. There are many European nations that deliver higher quality care in a more egalitarian way, many requiring a nominal fee to do it (unless one is proven unable to afford that).

The point is that threatening to move to the US is as baseless a reaction as is discounting that we have challenges with out health care deliverance in this nation.


To the extent that China is trying to clean up it's image and sweep abuses like this under the table, what do you think would have garnered the most headlines:

Nike goods manufactured in sweat shops; or
Ivanka's goods manufactured in sweat shops.

Unless you believe in coincidences, the fact that the guy investigating the second was arrested makes perfect sense.


Thank you for your response. I have dealt with two issues. 1. The notion that carbon taxes on Canadians will make any difference to the problem, or would need to be prohibitively large to make a difference and that Canadians be made aware of this information from their elected representatives so that they can make rational choices. 2. That science is rarely settled. That, as more information comes in we need to look at it and assess what it means for the bigger picture. The most recent research by some prominent climate scientists says that the computer predictive models used by the IPCC and others overestimated temperatures for the past 20 years. To me that means they made errors with the inputs and that there were flaws in their methodology. What troubles me is that for raising these issues some people use the term denier, which is a word with almost religious connotations and is meant in most cases to be insulting. I was sorry to see you use it as it doesn't fit with your moniker.


amazing stuff for me. thanks


The "undercover St. Louis police officer and an Air Force lieutenant" should have obeyed orders. Nothing wrong with the police arrests.

Two members of it's society. One is lying. Would it not be in the society's interest to investigate which to prevent their own reputation being brought into disrepute. The public I'd imagine already would have a good idea who is guilty.


It is good that the world starts to understand the racist mentality of Israel after  more than 70 years of suffering occupations of the indigenous Palestinian land.


A brilliant move by the Right Honourable Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada. Kudos! Of course, the strangulating cynics, the vacuous, the mean-spirited, the malcontents, the anal retentive con-cons, the vitriolic haters, and the crown jewel of cyber space, the Internet trolls, will all disagree.  They are not proud of the prime minister and they are not proud of Canada.


I don't want to hear about this inaccurate statistic which only represents those "actively" seeking employment.  I want to know the labor participation rate.   What % of people ARE working?  There is where the truth lies.


well after you left the shift  yesterday i see you are back on days working the liberal party headquarter propaganda department!


Your diet affects your health. If you are not doing everything to keep yourself absolutely healthy, then you are costing all of us money in insurance and welfare. At some point, your imperfect lifestyle will cost tax money.

You don't know how to summarize?
You don't know how to copy and paste a few of these so called facts?
You can't even post a link to the article?
Nothing?

Not to worry folks, these felons will be put on probation and rehabilitated because it would be senseless to incarcerate them, being as they are first time felons.  Just sad.

Selawik must be another 'dry' village I guess, either that or these people just like homebrew in a bucket.  Perhaps sugar needs to be outlawed in these villages too?


Ordinary capital gains earned by Canadian are not taxable to the US - regardless of the account.


I'm not sure what plnas are,PDN can't afford spell checking but any damages done to bridges,roads and private property resulting from dam removal should be paid at the federal level.
    Before it's all said and done it's going to cost billions in residual costs to repair bridges,repair our water supply to the level and quality it was and ongoing flood control.The state and local government shouldn't be responsible for a dime of it.--ken--


Apparently, "ever" began in 1981.  Who knew that the world began with the advent of satellites?


Do you really not understand that we spend $ Billions more than we take in? Is it your contention Charlie that there is a document that somehow disputes this?


Speaking of clear thinking, it is evident to me that you aren't practicing it. Joe McCarthy would have been on your side on this issue, not mine. The true conspiracy theorists are those worried about the government taking away their weapons, not those arguing for reasonable limits.

The gun lobby is opposed to reasonable limits on firearm ownership. That's established fact, not fantasy.


Fact check: assaults were in Cologne,  you can look it up.


Regarding: "The bishops, however, were clearly worried about what Trump might do to immigrants, especially in breaking up families and deporting those who are undocumented. Early on the first day, they approved a statement in support of the immigrant community in the United States. "
Part 4:
- If the USA returns children who are US citizens, or people who grew up in US because their parents brought them to the US; then the  USCCB should work with the state department to track young people who are citizens or who grew up in the USA to ensure that they find their way back to USA as adults. In the meantime the state department will make sure that the families of these children have work, are kept safe, and that the children and young people are well educated so that when they return to the USA as citizens or as entering immigrants they will be ready to work or to enter university.

- The cost to the US for this should give pause before anyone is sent to back to country of origin.

roy, thats wonderful to hear. i know that a child's home environment determines, almost every time, what a child will become. without parents understanding this important fact, and it is a fact, they will continue to think that the schools will take care of it. GIGO doesnt only apply to computers.


And, in other media:

FP: "Terence Corcoran: Trump calls out the global-control agenda of the Paris deal, but Canada remains oblivious"

TS: "Trump told the truth   His description of the Paris climate treaty he just killed is accurate"

This is exactly why Britain left the EU - too many rules and regulations stifling the British economy.

And, the Paris accord was heading the same way to stifle North American economies.

Trump understood this, Trudeau doesn't.


Again she was the only one who switched her vote. The other four were consistent. Taking the project to the 11th hour and then switching the vote not only killed that proposal, but made anyone scared to touch the issue again for 20 years. It also made the feds pissed at us since they had already pledged money based on the prior votes where Rene had voted in favor. If we are assigning the negative impacts of that fateful vote, Rene get 99 percent of the blame and the other 4 can split the remaining one percent. If you believe the story that she did it because Fasi wouldn't give her what she wanted, I guess you can blame him a little for not succumbing to her blackmail.


Nice story, but you are of course the lyingest of liars. Tell us the one again, about how Obama is Wise and Wonderful, and Hillary is an honest woman. Tee hee, it's always good for a laugh. You tool of the Enemy of the People.

The pattern of the comments (and votes) is the entire reason he's here.

Grueling? they should not be in session to begin with. These people need voted out


if trump shows up anywhere like that most likely it would mean he's been very impaired....which might not be such a bad idea.  greet him with Kool Aid, whisk him away up the McKenzie for the day...he can pontificate that evening.  a changed man.  "can't we all just get along? (fist grab, lean in to bump shoulders with the nearest secret service agent) love ya bro..." and then end with a '"love you Eugene!!!!!

I've been inside Protestant churches and I just don't feel the Real Presence there the way I do inside a Catholic Church (and presumably an Orthodox Church if I entered one).

So why go through 7 years of study to become a priest if anyone can say "This is my body" and "this is my blood" over bread and wine to effect transubstantiation? Why do we bother going through the motions of ordaining if it truly makes no difference?  I believe what Vatican II said about communities arising from the Reformation not preserving the Eucharist and if you think you worship a bigger God than me, and are more morally righteous for thinking your way, just go right ahead and think that.


This is excellent, Christian in the best sense of the word. Someone complained that if loving your neighbor were all there were to being Catholic then everyone doing that would be one.
     There is evidence in the Scriptures that everyone who does the will of God is acceptable to God and enters the Kingdom and only those whose love was small or nonexistent find themselves excluded.
    While on might not include everyone of good will in the community of practicing Catholics these is no reason to exclude them ultimately from the Heavenly banquet.
I hear Martin Luther King in the above, and hymns and Gospel melodies. And are those Afro-American Christians who prayed for Dylann Roof any less among the blessed than any Catholic saint, living or dead? Their witness is a living testament to the power of the Gospel. May God bless them.


All of the drugs, treatments and hand holding isn't going to do anything if the addict doesn't want to stop. Spend a year or two at the VA domiciliary. Where drug addicts check in to have a place to stay and get free meals during winter till it warms up. Then they run out to start again. Or people who have come back up to 5 or 6 times. I stopped smoking 10 or 12 times but never really quite till I wanted to.


The state budget is 44% smaller than it was two years ago.  The inflation argument held water back then, but no longer.


Oregon is already a sanctuary state, so other than symbolic, this really doesn't mean much.


You are bad people.


In view of the study and the number of earthquakes that are happening in other areas of North America since fracking started, I  think it would be fair to state that Christy's LNG dreams are on a very shaky ground.


In spite of my pro development general attitude, I am anti-Pebble because of the entire concept involved is badly flawed.  It would create the largest open pit mine in the world, produce vast quantities of toxic chemicals which would constitute an essentially eternal threat to downstream areas.  The principle of restoring a mined area, and the principle of proper isolation and disposal of toxic waste apparently never were considered (no doubt because it would cost more to do so).  If you cannot cost justify a project that will not ruin the beauty of Alaska nor insure its environmental safety for all time, then the project should not even be proposed, never mind approved.  Even if you are a conservative and pro development in your outlook.


Evidently it bothered you.


Nope  not true.  Neither are the lies coming out about Trump...............Clinton on the other hand lies about what the FBI said about her and you ignore it.


Obomber had the house & senate when he took office. If he had good intentions he had no excuse not to push them. He "compromised" with the right-wing because he is a center-right politician. He could have stopped the wars with a pen-stroke the moment he sat down in the Oval Orifice. He should have been tried at the Hague for war crimes. W, Obomber, and Chillary deserve to share the same lava jacuzzi in their afterlife.


sucks they missed this awful strain of fly in the vaccine!!  I get the vaccine in Oct every year .. and this year I got the bad flu over the holidays, obviously a strain not included in the vaccine.  6 days laid up, lost 18 lbs ... hey it wasn't all bad.  I hear in the US you can get quadrivalent vaccine covering 4 strains instead of 3 - I got the 'Canadian socialized medicine vaccine' of only 3 strain coverage - sucks!

At least where drugs are concerned, markets like Silkroad and AlphaBay would appear to be an improvement over street-level trafficking.

Vendors are apparently rated on the quality of their product and service, just like eBay--meaning that people selling bunk or poisonous cuts are not going to do very well.

And then, there's no street-level territory to fight over .. but of course, online dealers still have to source their product from large scale criminal organizations -- so that's hardly a complete win.

One might have guessed that I'm for the legalization of all drugs .. since most of the harms associated with the use of illicit drugs are directly related to their illicitness.

In fact, since significant proportions of humanity have derived pleasure and other benefits from various psychoactive compounds for thousands of years, one could make the argument that prohibition is anti-human.

It didn't work for booze, and it's never going to work for other drugs.


What if the boater had not mention the leak and provided the source? How much longer will luck of fate hold for a port on a shoestring budget?


Southside Snark:  From what you say, it's not more prison space that is needed here but more jail space.  If you want 'real' bails and 'bonds' set for pretrial suspects you must have a place to house them.  As it stands now, those that run the jails cry to the Judges when the jails are at or near capacity asking for their 'help' in dealing with any overcrowding.  That ends up resulting in two things.  One, lower time for those sentenced to jail (unless they are serving mandatory time - usually for traffic offenses) or two, lower bails for 'lesser' crimes (i.e. property crimes).
<
And we 'do' also need more prisons because what is needed here are but real prisons (instead of guest houses with full bennies) as well as revised conditions within those prisons (eliminating the hotel like atmosphere and adding the 'hard labor' aspect!


Just can't resist adding the derogatory expressions, can you?

This story simply illustrates the lack of leadership our provincial systems have confronted for at least a decade. Ontario's situation is understandable, given the system has been leaderless for the past 10 years or so. But we know how to get even with under-performing politicians (ie: Matthews): we re-elect them.


The oil companies have been making record profits from Alaska for 40 years, and now that they are not making such profits from the sale of our oil , they are being gifted billions of dollars of " state " monies while they cut their labor force and slow down production.
    They are still a very wealthy corporation , and no one is suggesting that we ask them to pay more to Alaska. What is needed, however, is a complete end to " credits "going to the oil companies while they are de-mobilizing, and downsizing their operations in the state.
   We have a Republican Legislature that works for the oil companies, and against the best interest of the state's residents. They are asking the states residents to pay for all of the services  that they are charged with providing, but continuing to fund the profit margin of a declining industry simply to maintain their personal wealth and please their oil cartel bosses.
   Oil company maintains profit , while residents lose services, PFD,and pay taxes


The sad truth is that many businesses pay too much rent to landlords. So the business is caught in a squeeze between staff costs and rent. This should not be taken out on the minimum wage earner. At some point the multi-national leasing companies and the large property owners must realize that you can not get blood from a stone and start to lower their rent expectations. Once again the money in retail flows up to the wealthy not to the workers. Any store which pays less than $15.00 per staff hour needs to re-evaluate their business model. We have too much retail space which has rent priced too high - we need fewer stores, but better stores.


This link proves my point. Just 1.6% growth in Obamas last year.

Then why does Canada keep getting flooded with immigrants?

It would be very interesting to learn what if anything has been done to ensure this miscarriage of justice is not repeated in the future.  Reassigning folks who drop the ball just moves the problem elsewhere.  What revised or new procedures have been put in place to preclude other children from suffering the same tragic harm.  Sadly the current System is broken.  The Valientes are to be commended for trying to force required changes.  Thanks to Mr. Hill's efforts to keep light shining on this dismal government of Hawaii performance.


Wow double d, what an amazingly revealing thing to say..."better to be thought a fool then open one's mouth and remove all doubt." Oh well, one down...


Barack Hussein Obama has deported millions more than President Trump.


Isn't China persuasive enough? One would think they have the power to give ultimatums.


If you include large buses as part of public transportation, the next mass murderer would just steal a bus.  Same size as this evil truck.


Then she already is  failure. Trump wants a trade deal done with the UK by the end of the year. And you can bet they'll be lots of other European countries trying to do the same. Trump won't deal with the EU but with individual countries - speeding up the EU's demise.


Perhaps Juan it is simply that most women do not consider you as a man they would be interested in?


Wolf, regardless of your grammar error, the word is spelled "grammatical" not grammarical. Just saying.


I'd have a different tone too if it were my kid.  I'd be hysterical for her trauma injuries!  Aside from that, the debate here is focused on decisions - or non-decisions - made about safety in bear country.  Like should I buckle my seat belt to go the mile to the store. Most people are mindful when we get behind the wheel.  When I was a kid, the school would tow a battered vehicle from the latest car accident and have kids inspect it.  It hit you in the gut. That kind of decision- consequence learning is mostly ignored by people who conclude that bears are evil, killers, blood thirsty.  They just be-bop into bear country on foot like it's the Sound of Music.


Might be a gal, you know. Article doesn't say.


I actually worked in HR in Denali for several years and can definitely attest to the fact that locals/US nationals are given priority for seasonal jobs. Unfortunately, most of the American youth, as the article mentioned, failed to show up for work at all or did not have even close to the work ethic of the international students and were often the ones who's employment had to be terminated (drinking on the job, bad attitude, etc).


Really? Please explain how the wold stage gives a flying fig about language preservation compared
to the heady issues in Europe or the Middle East.


I am a Lakewood resident.  This proposal is a wolf in sheep's clothing.  Some people want to decide who can do what in OUR city.  That is why we have a city council.  This proposal is garbage, plain and simple.  It would stop redevelopment, make us unattractive for business growth as well as drive middle class families elsewhere because they would not be able to afford living here.  NOT WHAT LAKEWOOD IS ABOUT!


Yet, Pelosi criticizes socialists and anarchists, and anti-fascists, groups that represented Stalinism. Ironically, they adopted some fascist behaviors. This led to the extermination of 10 million+ Soviet Republic citizens, including millions of Jews, and forced displacement of ethnic Chechens and Crimean Tartars.

I don't like Pelosi, but I'll still give her kudos for her comments. I would disagree on socialists not being part of the left, they had one running for the Dem nomination. They're not mainstream left, though, just like neo-nazis aren't mainstream right.


The reason coal is in sunset mode is that NG is cheaper and countries can do without all that black soot.  Coal is dead and oil will follow.


Immigrants quite logically head to our largest cities, as this is where the jobs are. In a way this contradicts those who support more immigration, who usually support their remarks by stating that Canada ids a big country. Except over 80% of our population live close to the American border, and the bulk of our population live in our largest cities and surrounding suburbs. We have witnessed various levels of government try to get a handle on housing in cities like Vancouver and Toronto to no avail. As our population increases this will only get worse. Cities like these are likely to be a nightmare thirty of forty years from now. There is absolutely no question that we need replacements for an ageing population,however if government could devise an incentive and a strategy that encouraged more immigrants to spread out across the country, and consider other locations, the east coast comes to mind, we would all benefit.


Yep...they had that opportunity.  It seems to have been overlooked, but I guarantee you it will be touted in the next election campaign.

The bigger issue here is how long Clark will stick around, and whether she'll leave voluntarily or will be pushed out.  There was a group or right of center libs ready to dump her on the eve of the 2013 election but she surprised everyone with a solid win and they couldn't act.  Now they can.


Really? "She lied on her application

A link. With the document info.


You know – some people actually read the second amendment differently than you! Seems to me it used to be linked to a "well armed and regulated militia" .. but I guess the past 20 -30 years in gun violence shows that looser gun laws makes everyone safer -
oh wait a minute – we don't really have good data on gun violence, do we? The centers for disease control aren't permitted to collect that data!
I wonder why that is?


I am afraid it's not about wear and tear like it is with trucks. It's about sharing the road. Many people in cars want cyclists to pay for using the road like they do. Maybe it's fair, but then wouldn't we also tax pedestrians? Those sidewalks and crossings are expensive.


Oh boy. Combining construction and concession operations. Because construction firms are so good at concessions.


Which five billion people would you like to see leave?  And where shall they go?


I was having coffee with some friends yesterday morning and one of those at the table made a remark likening something he disliked to Americans. I asked him why he had this penchant for knocking the Americans. He had no clue, it is just what Canadians do. This is, to a large degree, what is wrong with Canadians and in our arrogance we do not see the oncoming lights of the train.


Canada's not for profit blood system only supplies 25% of our blood supply, The rest comes from the USA which has a for profit system.

This whole debate is a sham as Canada is already using paid-for-donation plasma from the USA. Switching to a paid-for-donation system in Canada changes none of the facts, except that it may lead to more Canadian sourced donations.


He's partly right, if you're getting a big refund every year, you're doing something wrong. You are letting the government use your money as an interest free loan for a year. You should structure yourself so as to get nothing back, and pay as little as possible. The tax laws are there for everyone, not just Trump.

1.  Its not my industry.
2.  You are most definitely a fractivist.
3.  You like to lie about 'spills' like your most recent lie that there was a spill that put a lethal amount of benzene over I25 during rush hour.
4.  I am sure you are ignoring studies like the hundreds that show that the studies like the ones you mention are fatally flawed or are pathetically ovrereaching in their conclusions based on the actual science.  Of course that doesn't change headlines that claim 'study finds' when the study doesn't actually find that at all.
5.  No Colorado law does not require health and safety before industry profits.  It requires a balancing of the industry and health and safety.
6.  All cars produce exhaust. It is a FAR MORE LIKELY CAUSE of your need for inhalers than anything related to fracking.  Of course we have had this conversation already.  You deny the possibility that multiplying the population near you 6x in 10 years had anything to do with your condition.

"I've never been a fan of Shavelson" is a widespread assessment and speaks volumes as to why this heated exchange.

Sad because a lot of the underlying reasons Cook Inlet Keeper exists were valid and still are.

The film and TV producers who decide where to film these projects have all said that the only reason they choose to film in Hawaii is because of the tax credits. Sure - it's beautiful here and the who wouldn't want to come here to film? But the high cost of everything here, as well as the logistics of getting so much equipment here can only be offset by the tax credits.  Even the mighty Hollywood, California thought they didn't need their own tax incentives and as a result they lost thousands of jobs and billions of dollars to other locations who embraced them. We cannot afford to squander this amazing source of new money coming into the island by eliminating our tax incentives. There is nothing stopping CBS from filming Hawaii Five-0 in Costa Rica if it were cheaper there. This is a business and nothing more.

Perhaps if you had managed to stay awake in High School maths you would realize that it is the people who aren't getting their kids vaccinated are the ones playing Russian Roulette.


This guy is just all wrong for the job--that's my bottom line. I'm actually not a Trump hater, and if I were a budding realtor in NY and Trump were on my team, I'd be toodling rosebuds. The problem with Trump is that he doesn't understand that political office is fundamentally about service and that even leadership in political office is mostly about service to others.

In the wake of his trip to the Hold Land and the Vatican, yes, it's useful to keep in mind that this guy lied right from the start. He even lied during the sale of Mar-a-lago, told the Post family he'd bought the beachfront lot in front of it (he hadn't--yet) and was going to put up a complex to block the view. As a result, the property value plummeted by $17 million and Trump walked away licking his chops. Wonder if this approach will work with the Israelis and Palestinians . . .


Planned Parenthood, a TAX EXEMPT organization offering relief to pregnant women receives over $500M per year in taxpayer support.  Millions of Americans are offended by that.


Come on parents, teach your children the basics; right from wrong. If you can't do that, let the authorities teach them. Snowflakes raising snowflakes!

Canada has 60,000 in the "armed forces", not 115,000 (reserves are I believe an additional 15,000)..and of those, around 20,000 are desk-bound at DND...


The old Trumpian battle cry of "Lying Hillary" rings a bit hollow doesn't it.
It does raise an important question though, does Trump even know where Sweden is?


Actually the definition you provide more than suffices to support my reply.


As am I!


He was forced out of his own country .  As opposed to the tens of thousands who want to flee to other countries because they are too coward to stay and fight for they're own homelands. I'm not talking about the women and children---but those over 18 years old who are cowards . Thank goodness American's aren't cowards or the German flag could be standing tall on our homeland.


Interesting  that David thinks that the person exceeding the speed limit is the bully, and not the driver who blocks the left lane - because he can.
It's not my business to hold traffic back. Maybe someone is rushing to their dying mother's bedside or a wedding or to catch a flight. If they want to go faster than the law allows, I won't be in their way.


What about just "protected"   can't they do that?     Iliamna lake is a very special place,  Fly over it in a float plane once and see what's there from the sky you get an overwhelming feeling of primal existence in a nutcase world..........take a skiff to into a certain river or into certain bays and that primal feeling is expounded by pure peacefulness and a quieting of the soul and amazement at the wildness that is still there.   If you haven't ever been there you have no idea what I'm talking about and you think I'm being corny......but if you've been there, you know.


I disagree with the editorial. As someone who has always rented, I have seen enormous rental increases almost every year- and at a time when wages remain stuck in neutral. Even if you sign a lease, the rent goes up after the term, and you are either forced to move, or stuck paying whatever they want. This has to stop. Not only should rent control be mandatory, there should also be accompanying legislation which prohibits ANY landlord or developer from converting existing rentals into condominiums. The days of slumlords must come to an end....

Like Israel has? Apparently you have never been to Israel. Trust me when I tell you that we share very few values with the zio mafia who run Israel and the US and many other countries for fun and profit regardless of how many people they need to have us kill for them. The job has aged obama not just because he is almost 10 yrs older but because it must be stressful trying to enact new laws opposed by a majority of Americans and illegal under our constitution.

Saw a bumper stick the other day that said "Anytime you start to feel stupid remember there are people who think Bernie Sanders would make a good President"

Between him and Hillary terrorism is caused by either a video or climate change ...pick em!


Bad enough Canada has a kid in diapers occupying the PM's office, now, the same thing might happen to Austria. My poor Mom must be turning in her grave looking at what has happened to Austria which was, once, a great country and society.

Campbell was one of the great Rough Riders of that period. Later he became former Argos receiver, Bobby Taylor's bartender at the Black Bull in Toronto. RIP sir and thanks for the memories you and Billy J.Booth gave us.


What a novel idea. Maybe they can move the courthouse, and maybe you can reinvent the wheel. Like they haven't thought of that already. Name a jail that houses pretrial detainees 200 miles away from the courthouse.


Regardless whether the Confederate flag was flown or not, or whether there are photos as evidence, this school has a "Confederacy Rebel soldier" as a mascot.  The mascot alone has no place in school sports. The mascot represents slavery and a part of the country that LOST the Civil War.  A school couldn't have a more racist mascot if it tried. If an investigation finds these ignorant, racist intolerant comments by Weld H.S. Football players to be true, Mayor Hancock should ban Weld High School from playing in Denver again.  Governor Hickenlooper should ban Weld H.S. From playing anywhere, period.  Officials need to deal with this in the most formal, strict way possible. We need to come together as ONE COLORADO against hate and racism and send a strong message to these young adults that their mascot, which is clearly condoned by adults, is absolutely unacceptable.


We need to go to unlock dependency on internet sent instructions on electronically controlled mechanical items, such as unlocking doors in hotels, refrigerators sending out purchasing signals, power generating plants and many more.

If they have Trump on tape, speaking to a Russian diplomat during the campaign, and Trump said, "If I get elected, I can be more flexible" (in negotiations with Russia). Does anyone believe that's enough to impeach the President? Please let me know.


It's hard to imagine any poster jumping to Mr. Marr's defense.  However, stranger things have happened.

nope djou changed his mind just to pander for votes; he real intent is to sabotage rail like his supporters (cayetano) want him to do.  the city council just passed a resolution that will complete rail as planned; this was done to insure that rail is built as planned and not short circuited by djou should he become mayor.  djou will bring repub principles to the city should he be elected, that is small government and no entitlements for the poor and homeless.  we cannot let this happen, we need to help our less fortunate and not let them die in the streets.  vote for Caldwell.


==>  They shook hands when she arrived.

==>  Trump is correct.  Germany needs to pay up.  NATO's 28-member countries committed in 2014 to spending 2 percent of their gross domestic product on defense within a decade. Only the U.S. and four other members of the post-World War II military coalition are meeting the standard.** I suppose the money not paid to is used underwrite their socialist healthcare, 35 hr work week, & lengthy vacations.

Winning

**Still not sure why, for decades, the USA has been pushing their protection racket (NATO) on Europe.  There is no bogeyman.


Keep tellin' ya'll, rent the movie Idiocracy.  I think we have a sequel going here.


"Scientists believe coral is damaged when oxybenzone exceeds a concentration of 62 parts per trillion, which is roughly equivalent to one drop of water in six and a half Olympic-sized swimming pools."  Christians "believe" that Jesus is the Messiah.  This article showed no proof or scientific "consensus", just, perhaps, "a good idea just in case".  You people would regulate our every move if it would MAYBE save some species other than human.  Too much.

C.I.A. Had Evidence of Russian Effort to Help Trump Earlier Than Believed


I've been in rural Alaska villages.  Alaska natives and native Alaskans in villages are just trying to make it like everyone else. I want them to have everything Americans need to succeed.  I say this because our people deserve care and concern.  I don't like it that many, many people use their food stamp allotment for drugs and alcohol but there you go...it's a good trading tool and done regularly believe me.  It's a drop in the money bucket for their food stamps as compared to the billions of dollars we send to other countries.


You might want to look at the fact that Alaska brings in more federal tax dollars than it pays into the treasury....but when it is going for jets that can't fight their way out of a paper bag you have no problem accepting that money....little hypocritical?


Or Valley Of The Moon Park, why go all the way to LA


Funny that the old union flag attracts so much opprobrium and yet the communist hammer and sickle emblem does not.


TOD and other development that would be encouraged on the rail line is another example of "bait and switch."  The final environmental impact statement for rail says that the character of the land along the rail line will not be substantially changed.  The "bait and switch" indicates that transportation is secondary for the rail project.  Rail's primary purpose is to make money for big landowners, developers, construction companies, banks and other financial institutions, unions, and politicians.


Your team hasn't won a cup in a quarter-century, that's also "decades" you twit.

I've always found that expecting the police to protect is like Italy expecting its seismologists to be able to predict earthquakes.  Police are humans and they're not psychics.  They do their best, but when a life and death crime is occurring, chances are they won't make it there in time.  People have to realize they must be responsible for protecting themselves and their loved ones.  It's unreasonable to depend on someone else to do it for you.


The point that is totally being missed.  I do not care that she was giving him the finger.  I care that this was a serious breach of security.  Still remember the Obama motorcades, streets were cleared and police kept the roads totally clear until it passed.  If there ever were a target for assassination, he would be it.  Never mind his politics, which left much to be desired.

Perhaps it depends upon meaning of "entirely unAffected" ?   Or maybe the subject of entirely unaffected?


Kevin... click on newest posts first and follow my posts. Your posts are 3-4 hours old and mine include recent information, and examples. We now have Rick Perry Secretary of Energy disparaging the election process at his old alma mater.  Relevant? How many times did Trump decry that the election process was not trust worth during his campaign -- each on scored points for Russia. And now another member of the administration is disparaging the results of a college election -- score more points for Russia who is not a fan of Democracy. Even if it is like playing international speed clock chess, with wee folk as the pawns.

Each of these flame outs BY the administration on how US democratic processes are failing because Trump doesn't like the results ... he is literally scoring points for those who would like our democracy to fail.

The present moment calls for the emphasis on this administration. There aren't nuances to this scale.
I'm pro-Democracy... Not a Democrat nor a Republican.


The anti PERA people never want to hear that their messiah Owens basically messed PERA retirees over by taking the fund from more than 100% funded to what it is today.


I "focused on the petroleum production of a large corporation" (British Petroleum -- known as ARCO here in Oregon) and asked you to "if British Petroleum caps every well worldwide and quits using any carbon, what will the result be worldwide? And when?"

Did I miss your reply?

No one else has produced even a theory, so don't feel bad if you can't, either.


He's not releasing his taxes because of negative news stories? Do you think there's a connection?


The challenge in encouraging venture capitalists and crowd funding in Canada will be to modify our laws so that the major banks don't strangle the opportunities.

Can you just pause for a second and reflect on the difference between profiling at a security checkpoint backed by overwhelming firepower and at a bar? Again, I gave my scenario as to what profiling would accomplish at a bar--nothing. So please describe what would happen at this bar when it turns away a heavily armed Arab.

And save the weird, incomprehensible, assumption-filled "PC liberals like yourself sue them for trying to protect their citizens" for a different discussion. Just tell me how profiling would have stopped this massacre.


This meeting would not happen if someone other than Tillerson was Secretary of State. Under Obama the USA (Clinton) would go into a snit and cancel. Without Tillerson  the Russians would have cancelled. So they are still talking - good. Unless your name is Spicer or you are CEO of United Airlines, talking usually solves more problems than it creates.

Behind closed doors with cameras off Russia and USA agree Assad is an idiot who must be kept in place to serve their needs (as the idiot they both know). Chemical weapons from whatever source rocked the status quo and forced them into their current postures. Whether or not this was a false flag operation, the USA and Russia  try to avoid surprise moves that provoke major responses. Both prefer the current chess game with moves and counter moves. If Assad is behind the attacks the Russians will bring him back in line now that they know Trump will react with more than words..

The generals and military industrial complex will be very happy.

Great article and well said! When it comes to free trade and jobs we already know that while there are some win-wins, for several years under a global economic climate, there is a far higher percentage of losses for Canada and the majority of Canadians.


Comment one: In setting up the criminal justice system long ago, the founders wanted it to be expensive to strip a citizen of their freedom.  Not expensive per se, but burdensome.  The reason, of course, that offenses not worth the effort/cost should not serve to deprive a citizen of freedom.  Murder, rape, etc. will always be core serious crimes.  Many other crimes, the drug crimes, minor shoving matches, etc. etc. are often of no real consequence, but the criminal justice system is involved because 1) prosecution is no skin off the citizen's teeth, 2) the system feeds many and must have meat to grind.

Two: In the multiple crime scenario, some triage may not be so bad.  But I do not think that most plea bargains are in that category.  More likely a man will be charged with felony kidnapping for holding the door for 30 seconds during an argument.  This, of course, is obscene abuse of the kidnapping statutes, but such a charge will instantly force a plea giving its massive sentences.


I guess you've never heard of tabor huh?


No, that's it for blood-thinners


Status-quo is good for Canada, so it's so much the better if Trump doesn't follow through.

However, I believe that Trump can score an easy win if he cancels NAFTA but keeps/reactivates the Canada-US Free Trade Agreement.  Or tries to, if it turns out he doesn't have that authority as President (which most US commentators, at least at the moment, seem to suggest he has).

Who in the US will go to bat, politically, for free trade with Mexico?  Talk about a walking piñata!  Haha.

I think it's unlikely the Canadian government would withdraw from free trade in a pique over the US cancelling free trade with Mexico - nor would it be in Canada's interest despite some good reporting by the Globe and Mail on the disadvantages of FTA vs. NAFTA.


I believe that the following will happen.
(1) So as not to embarrass Presiden Obama, political generals in the PENTAGON will allow SGT Bergdahl to go free.
(2) Once that happens, the U.S.Army military guard detail, which protects SGT BERGDAHL whenever he goes off base, will be ended.
(3) After losing that protection that the U.S. military has provided free of charge, the now out of the U.S. Army SGT Bergdahl will confront a former U.S. military veteran who is suffering PTSD  ... and who will shoot SGT Bergdahl 13 times dead instantly.
(4) That military veteran shooter will immediately become a national hero to many Americans.  The TOTALLY POLITICALIZED U.S. justice system will never be able to convict the "perp" of SGT Bergdahl's murder.
(5) President Barack Obama will deliver the funeral eulogy, and
(6) No one will bother to listen to the former President's speech.


"The American Gold Star Mothers Inc. was formed in the United States of America shortly after World War I to provide support for mothers who lost sons or daughters in the war.  he name came from the custom of families of servicemen hanging a banner called a Service Flag in the window of their homes. The Service Flag had a star for each family member in the United States Armed Forces. Living servicemen were represented by a blue star, and those who had lost their lives were represented by a gold star. Gold Star Mothers are often socially active but are non-political. Today, membership in the Gold Star Mothers is open to any American woman who has lost a son or daughter in service to the United States."

Better get used to actions like these, between now and June 2018. Wynne will do anything to get ten more votes, no matter how outrageous she has to be. She would declare war on New York State, if she thought it would help her win. Premier Patrick Brown is going to have a huge amount of undoing to do, starting right after the election.

Poor Tad. Another example of the distorted view from Ivory Towers. The "Russia Investigation" ? Really ? Not surprised the G&M didn't cover the Veritas story...


I"You mis-state an opposing view either competently or incompetently. "

Using words such as incompetent generally occcur when those with opposing views realize they have no argument to make.

You also stated that these victims are rsponsible for their own loss of life, yet on the other hand you suggest the police provoked them into engaging in illegal behavior that caused them to give up their life.

If they are truly responsible for their actions, (you clearly stated they were), then they could not be victims but crimnials.  If however you are saying that the police provoked them into bad behavior that caused them to lose their life, then the full responsibility of the assailents would come into question.  However you would need more than just conjecture and biased opinion to get others to listen, as you have made it perfectly obvious that you hold a grudge against the Kent Police specifically,  including the rejection of the courts findings  of their innocence.


If you read my post carefully I am taking the appropriate steps to assess the situation.   However one of the first steps is to ascertain if there are any guidelines established by the AOAO BOD.  My point is there should at least be step-by-step play book / process along with standards and specifications to allow those who want to explore  this option.   This would avoid a myriad or variant submissions all of which would need to be scrutinized by the BOD as we would want to have properly maintain the aesthetics of the project.   As for resources,  we simply utilize the Property Management,  licensed electrical contractors and those who have volunteered and committed to serve on the BOD / Building and Grounds to facilitate same.  I've served on several AOAO / BOD's and it is not a daunting task to get this done...but more on just getting it done.  :)


no they were shot by a nut job.  Mulism on the other hand are taught to hate infidels and required to jihad against them.


People living Outside shouldn't be eligible, because their money isn't going back into the Alaskan economy. Also, they planned to reside out of state with intentions of returning. The deceased typically do not plan their death. That may leave their families in a tight spot because the deceased may have been the major income earner. That final PFD could help them in a big way.

My husband passed away last October, and that definitely was not his choice. Thankfully, as morbid as it sounds, the date of his passing fell within the window of eligibility for this upcoming dividend. His thousand dollars would help me rebuild my savings after moving across town this spring.

Families of the deceased shouldn't have to be put out for such an untimely event. They deserve way more leniency than those who choose to live elsewhere.


I too fear that contained in this article, and in the above video, is the essence of Trump and his followers. I also fear that Kasparov in his important work in the last years is outlining what Americans need to do, become aware of the evil that is growing in our country, and fight it, just as the Ukrainians did.
I don't think the Republican Party has the courage to fight Trump, they are too focused on the bones that he is tossing them in the way of stealing health care from the poor to give tax breaks to the rich. They seem to think they can just play with the devil and tame him to be a good partner. Perhaps those still alive in ten years will wake to find themselves in a Putinesque America, where words like democracy and human rights are used, but only as a smokescreen for the oligarchy. Hard to see how to fight when democracy itself is the tool used to defeat freedom.
Yes, Trump's press conference was the perfect example of a dog whistle Presidency.

This has to do with the contents of the article how exactly?


...and Chris Stevens just got in the way too then.


I could not agree with you more, Littleway. Pence "won" by not defending Trump; but it was really a greater win for the Hilary and Tim ticket owing to Pence's caution.

It requires as much caution to tell the truth as to conceal it. But Pence's concealment, lukewarm "style," was rather chicken-hearted, white-livered, as it were. Pence obviously didn't want some of Trump's positions understood or believed, especially as Trump "articulates" them. Good heavens! What a "running mate"!!!


"Resoundingly rejected by voters, Democrats' last hope is to pervert congressional district maps to subvert the will of the people".

Isn't that exactly what the Republican's did in the last re-districting (gerrymandered districts)....so that it would favor Republican voters/candidates over Democratic ones?  Re-districting should be done by an independent commission (and not by either political party), based solely on population (1 person = 1 vote) and not political affiliation.


Get over it ADN, what a sore loser. This is why he is the new POTUS.


"Unusual" pact ... also likely "illegal."

As the mom of the child allergic to wheat, dairy, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts and shellfish, I would like to respond to your comments. (a) While it poses challenges, I would not call it "awful" but thank you for your compassion. Stress results from the implication that he should manage this by himself.  He is a child who needs support & guidance from the adults around him, especially at school where he spends most of his day. (b) all of his allergens are not restricted in his school.  Together with the school staff, we have applied strategies that reduce his risk of exposure to allergens. Each child's needs are different & 1-size-fits-all approach is not the way. Factors such as age, maturity, where kids eat (cafeteria vs classroom) should be considered. Steps to limit risk of exposure & education are not mutually exclusive; to be effective they need to go hand in hand. The issue is the lack of guidance to Boards and schools about practical and realistic steps needed to keep kids safe.


Exactly. It stinks that millenials are the last generation of humans and all of these apartments will go vacant.


Red states Wyoming and Arizona have no problem with the voter request.  The Secretary of States in both states refuse to comply with the order.  Why are liberal states like Colorado and California even considering sending in the voter information?


I can only hope this meeting has the same effect on Trump as the Pope's meeting with Boehner 2 years ago...a newfound resolution to resign from office.
I also feel sorry for Melania, except that no one forced her to marry the guy.  No amount of money is worth one's dignity and freedom.


This is amusing. Trump used the power of the No vote, with his question of "What have you got to lose", to put his billionaire friends into power. So the voters didn't figure it out in time, and have put the "investors and rentiers" in power.


In the words of Randall Monroe:   If you're yelled at, boycotted, have your show canceled, or get banned, your free speech rights aren't being violated.   It's just that the people listening think you're an asshole, and they're showing you the door.

Good riddance to bad rubbish, Milo.


To get a good idea of disaster situation is like,  turnoff your iPhones for a month if you can last that long.  And for an actual disaster situation go live with the homeless for 4 months leaving everything behind.  that is in a tent.  I don't know where they take a shit so I can't tell you.  Look around and what ever the homeless do of find water is what you going have to do too.  Be prepared for no fresh water for about a month or more since homeless going be in a disaster situation where even no more supermarkets to shop at much less no more money.   yes no toilet paper.  So live with the homeless should give a lifetime of actual situation we live in today. and oh yeah.  store some blue tarps,  buy one honda generator now.


I agree Travis.  Considering that alcohol is far more dangerous to us than cannabis, I think it should be rescheduled and that alcohol establishments should not be able to utilize the banking system to deposit their revenues.  Make the bars hire security staff to guard their cash 24/7.  Invest in some serious safes be in fear of being knocked off by the growing criminal element here in Anchorage.


There was no reason to raise rates other than the banks wanted it. Inflation hasn't become a problem. And to suggest that rates needed to rise to prevent inflation rising in six months is just crazy. The Bank of Canada should be reactive, not predictive. Predicting the future is always a mugs game.

the drug users are 100% responsible for their overdose death, which is nature's way of cleansing.  It hardly bothers anyone, except the drug dealers and professional sympathisers, who simply siphon out taxpayers' money.

Flames ownership is spectacularly unsophisticated to attempt this crude blackmail. City council should call the bluff. There is no city anywhere in North America where the Flames could generate the revenue stream that is now being generated in Calgary, let alone whatever income would be generated by a new arena.

No politician could survive in Calgary by rolling over for the Flames. Murray Edwards burned up his goodwill when he decamped to England as a tax refugee. Even a Conservative would be committing political suicide by giving in to the Flames' demands. The sad fact is...Calgary's economy is still flat on its back, much worse than Edmonton's.

Bringing in Gary Bettman as a heavy handed hitman was particularly maladroit. Having an arrogant New York corporate lawyer lecture Calgary's elected city council is just plain counter-productive, giving Mayor Nenshi a gold-plated campaign foil for next month's civic election.

However, thousands are dying each year from hospital acquired infections that can be vanquished with better cleaning and sterilizing. Is there a better example of picking low hanging fruit in order to save lives?  Let's get on that. It's a no brainer.


Well written piece. Thanks E.J. Dionne.

Note that your data is out of date and suffers from the conventional way of defining the tech sector. There is no one statistical category used. What percentage of those financial services jobs are in IT? My point, in any case, is that resource extraction and transportation is not particularly important to the future of the BC economy. Finding new ways to get value from our forests, though, is.


it "worked out" by the Soviets then taking over Eastern Europe, setting up repressive regimes, building the Berlin Wall and launching the Cold War for about the next 45 years. so I guess if you were a Czech, Hungarian, East German, etc. maybe it didn't work out too well eh?

I don't believe that Charles Dalton has ever posted that no black person can be successful or ever has been because of white privilege.  If fact I am 98% certain he has not. It seems you have to lie in order to make your dubious point. In fact, I find you more of a racist than Charles, since you yourself have implied that Charles's success was the result of affirmative action, rather than his own talent.


Most importantly.
Canada has a Charter of Right and Freedoms and a Bill of Rights.
That transcends war and governments and special interest groups.
And a Supreme Court of Canada which upholds our rights.


I did not know there was a Sikh Day parade. I may have attended. Where is the Denver Sikh community located? Near Greektown? And can I culturally appropriate Sikh food anywhere? (Just kidding on the last thing. Sikhs don't seem to get into victimhood.) But like them, I do carry a weapon to be used in defense of anyne who would be made a victim.


Bottom line:

The republican congress is using Trumps treason as a screen while they rob the nation and rape the constitution.


This insistence on referring to those who are in loving same-sex unions as sinners is truly bizarre.  In the times of Jesus, lepers were considered to be such.  Thankfully, we have evolved past that.  Is it not high time that we evolve past this idiocy of considering persons who are in same-sex relationships as being sinners?

Sounds  like the words "legal immigration" still have no place in your vocabulary. And 20 other countries built walls are now trying to stem the invasion from the Middle East by Islamic hordes who never even consider assimilation. The refugees of war and military age with no wives or children  continue to invade, as has the onslaught by Islam on Christian lands, for the last 1,400 years. I am thankful for my relatives who fought these Islamic animals for over 250 year in the land of the Dragon.


Defense: For most part defense played well.  But the run defense is a definite concern without Wolfe and Crick.  Losing Kerr hurts an already thin DL.  Todd Davis has to shut up and not act like a spoiled brat.  Talib is usually the immature one but today acted like a leader.  Von Miller was dynamic in limited play.  Shelby Harris stood out and could possibly make the 53 man roster.  Peko is solid.  Gotsis still gets pushed around way too much.  Jamal Carter is another player that deserves a shot on the team.  Brandon Langley is fast and will definitely contribute on special teams this year.


Yes, its not the 35 that need to be convince - its the 10%  in the middle ...

German boy beaten, kicked by Muslim schoolmates after telling them he is Jewish

http://news.nationalpost.com/news/world/german-boy-beaten-by-muslim-schoolmates-after-telling-them-he-is-jewish


I think the concern is the use of language like Trudeau's to suppress the rational objections many legitimately hold about aspects of puritanical religious ideology, including gender bias and homophobia, whether in Islam or in other religions. There is a strong tradition in the West, grounded in the Reformation and Enlightenment, which sustains our right to rationally criticize any religion. We mustn't lose this.


Does not the climate change from year to year?  Decade to Decade? and Century to Century?  Are these the same scientists that love to change data that they do not like?    Sounds like you also believe in the false doctrine of an ancient earth also.


I am a CPA and since the recent tax proposals were introduced in July, have been questioning why the CRA is spending so much time going after the small business owners for the anticipated $250 million in taxes when there are billions out there in 2 main areas. The first is the defined benefit plan that Federal employees have that small business owners don't and the other is offshore Trusts that wealthy people have access to. It's outrageous to go after small business owners for such small amounts when they allow those 2 massive holes.


selfies for everyone!


Are you the real Justin Trudeau ?


Does he even know the definition of "oath"??? He's a narcissist. They are in their own world and will never believe or listen to anything or anyone about anything. Lying is a way of life. It's a mental illness. Perhaps this country needs to be educated on what constitutes mental illness. Definition: Donald Trump.


I loved your last line of "So it seems there's no there there."

Wonderful! I know & teach many of the young women of the East High Volleyball team. I'd say you've had a very succesfull season & look forward to hearing about their continued success in 20 years.


At least someone understands what he meant.


Angry commentators and their nihilist attitudes have brought this on.  They don't want conversations; they want to make statements.

I see the time in the near future when comments are no longer accepted, and it isn't a failure of the media.


re:  Houses in some cities keep rising in price, while the federal government keeps making home buying either less accessible or more expensive.

yes the Liberals want to tap down home purchasing by existing resident Canadians who now cannot afford housing without going dangerously into debt,

but not the new rich immigrant class or offshore investors who the Liberals freely encourage to run up the price of housing further


Nobody cared about the Census but the majority are disgusted by the Kadhr issue and won't forget that Trudeau gave 10 million taxdollars to a terrorist when the court did not even order him to do so. Trudeau's lame excuse about "possible more damages" is ridiculous, as Canadian courts are known for not awarding huge amounts for damages. This was no doubt a result of Islamic lobbying, and Trudeau must pay the price.


As I see it, I can choose whom to believe. I can believe that the BC Liberals will suddenly become less self-serving, less corrupt, and more democratic, or I can believe that the NDP will keep their promises. I have no way of knowing in either case, but the Liberals have been in power long enough that I can guessed based on their recent activity. If I'm unhappy with the NDP later, I don't have to vote for them again. Nothing done over a 4-year term is irreversible.


Was she the one who wrote the phrase "person of colour" that appears in the introduction to her piece?

If, so, then, hello?

This is Canada. Everybody here is a person of colour. True, some are shades of beige, but beige is a colour just as ebony is a colour.

In Canada, the phrase used in the article is a political power-grab, and an extremely offensive power-grab at that. Please stop denigrating the equal status of beige people with a phrase that inappropriately grabs them, and only them, as somehow the standardized measure against which all the other colours are to be measured.

The phrase is maladaptive and sickeningly manipulative.

Of course, the fact that the 7 1/2 year sentence was mandatory under measure 11 had nothing to do with it, right?

So now you work for the comment police ?   Certainly you can walk and chew gum at the same time .  Your comment is off topic too , so why did you make it ?  Follow your own advice Mr.  monitor .


Only because the Clinton Foundation is old news, and influence peddling is nothing new either.
Now Russia is “the enemy” of the Excited States of America, since Democrats have no power.

people who all too quickly forget why they are still

Yes...cause if you could not recall an elected representative based on performance then what would stop them from delivering a "what-you-want-to-hear" campaign then switching platforms as soon as they get into office? Kind of like Gov. Walker did to us. He was a republican until after election then switched to democrat.


Hoping the officers involved recover quickly physically as well as emotionally....tough job!


Yes, Yes, Yes Dennis, "we think - and have reason to" scoff at those working to "return the whole church to the rigidity of patriarchal absolutism" ridding it of you and me and some others.

Our point...does it help the true lovers of either side to "impugn the prime culprits," as you say.  If we believe in Vatican II and all the post-V2 work that has been done, WHY not spend all that sacred energy working for a Vatican II-type prelature or ordinariate?  Doesn't the Church need a Vatican II organizational structure now more than ever?

Or do we just keep letting each other get knocked off one by one, decade after decade, in hopes of some messiah, like Pope Francis, who will bring the RIGHT Progressive way to the Church and knock those "conservatives" off their high horses???  That isn't really working too well, is it...unless Pope Francis takes the absolutist position he abhors?  There's got to be a better way besides mocking and snipping at each other.  https://RiteBeyondRome.com

<Trump voters brought on this crisis.>
Yes, they did. They need to come to terms with the enormity of their faulty judgment, and I get that that can be hard to do. I think some of them are, in fact, coming to terms with what they have wrought; and I think some of them never will.


"flies on gross polluting jets"

OK, we know which recycled mouthpiece you are now. "They shall be known by their brickbats."


The idea that any Christian who voted for this con man has any moral superiority is laughable. It's also why thousands refuse to identify as Christian anymore.


You wouldn't like foreigners interfering in American or Canadian elections.  Would you?

" The well-funded think tank ($10.7-million in revenue in 2015) relentlessly pushes its message—whether overtly, through its dozens of annual research reports, or covertly, as in a libertarian recruitment tool marketed to families as “The Game of Canada.” The Institute’s fellows and alumni (Tom Flanagan, Danielle Smith, Ezra Levant etc.) are frequent pundits. The think tank has placed columnists across the Postmedia newspaper chain; currently three at my hometown Calgary Herald alone."  - http://albertaviews.ca/no-free-lunch/   March, 2017


Legally, it does not matter "who came first".  Nor does it matter that home owners and other residents may be unhappy with drilling and production operations.  What does matter is that surface rights and mineral rights for many land parcels were severed in the past.  And state law grants priority access to the mineral rights (i.e. the surface owner cannot prevent access to the subsurface).

If home owners, and their representatives, are surprised by this, they can only blame themselves.

Trying to change the laws now is of course possible, but will likely be both unsuccessful and expensive.


God didn't put me in or near Chicago like he did you, or Blaise.

We should love most where God put us.  Subsidiarity.  Ever hear of it.

What I did this morning was I rose at 0500, drove an hour, and gave some men/fathers a class on how to make the home life more pleaseant for others, particularly their families and friends.  On the way I said a Rosary and included a lot of people, some in great need, in my intention, sacrificing the morning radio and breakfast for their intentions.

What did you do for the men of Chicago today, near where you live?

I gave the same talk to a different set of men Thursday, and will to a different set of men on Monday.   Get at it.

I give similar talks (on a wide span of topics) 3 times a month.


Just start following the links and read up on them.


My Friend, you need to check YOUR sources. You are confusing the PF and the PFD. The PF is authorized under the terms you listed. Since we are now tapping the PFE reserves for government, to continue paying the Dividend creates the need for the income tax (or sales tax) in order to "balance" the budget. So a dividend/tax system becomes simply a wealth redistribution system which is not a legitimate purpose of government.
....Gotta run. see you tomorrow.


Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price was known to be corrupt before ever being named to the post. And now that he’s in the job, he’s enjoying the perks.
Price spent tens of thousands of dollars to take a private jet to travel up and down the East Coast last week.
A private jet to a resort to chat with a pharma CEO sounds like what you might expect from a man who bought stock in a medical company, then authored a bill to boost its value.
But Price’s misuse of a public funds to hire a private plane is particularly egregious, because that Tom Price, is the same Tom Price who railed against government use of private planes.
The ranking member of the House Energy and Commerce committee said he wants to see a “full accounting” of Price’s travel.


Legal marijuana will have the opposite effect.  There will still be homicide and crime because the hard and addictive drugs will continue to drive that.  People who partake of legal marijuana won't be a problem in general.  The individuals who are involved in heroine use and other hard drugs will most likely use marijuana as well.  They will also use anything else they can get their hands on.  People who like to smoke an occasional joint are easy targets for folks like this, but they aren't the problem.


Many severance and EI packages are running out for many folks laid off from the oil industry. Even with prices at 50 a barrel, what is the likelihood of any new mega projects going ahead? How else are those young engineers going to be employed? Many don't even realize that the salaries in the oil industry seem to be approx 30 percent higher than many other industries. Trump's gutting of environmental laws will open up more drilling in the states which will put downward pressure on the market and so will all of the frackers. It is likely that some OPEC countries will cheat on their promises, they have in the past. So what will drive the housing market in Calgary? Cosmopolitan lifestyle? Frigid prairie winters? Lush greenery and foliage? Ocean views?


I was taught flag etiquette when I was in school, and I'm a lifelong liberal Democrat. My parents fought in WWII for the values that flag represents.
Neither liberals nor conservatives know any more to stand and wait respectfully when the flag is being raised or lowered in front of a building or house.
Both left-wing and right-wing types wear the flag as clothing. Both types buy American flag paper plates and cups.
Both lefties and righties ignorantly dishonor the flag by flying it to the point it's in tatters or by using it as a car radio antenna cover.
Car dealerships using ever bigger flags to show they are more patriotic than the competition (one of my biggest pet peeves) are owned by liberals and conservatives alike.
Kid Rock is conservative. So is Ted Nugent (who has a flag-themed guitar).
This isn't a partisan issue, not by far.


The 14th Amendment does not extend to the "rights" asserted by LGBT people except by way of the most convoluted line of reasoning.

Religious freedom and the rights proclaimed to protect that freedom have been recognized for centuries with volumes of support in our Western intellectual tradition, from which the concept of rights originated.  LGBT rights have been artificially created out of thin air.

Well , he was being investigated while Hilary Clinton was Secretary of State and Barack Obama was president.  Investigation against Manafort has been ongoing way before Trump announced his candidacy.


How about you go back to where you came from and take your racist fallacies with you?  Why do racist squatters always fail to realize or deny one simple truth: all settlers are squatters in Canada. And newsflash: trespassing is a criminal offense. If you follow your own colonial common law, this is the inescapable truth: nemo dat quod non habet.


Anti-bullying policies should be for everybody, without special reference to any group or political movement. The need to refer to "transgender" is unnecessary and frankly discriminates against non-transgenders. I am a transgender, but was bullied far more in school before I came out, and I am sick of people trying to indoctrinate children by forcing transgenderism into our schools and sexualizing our children. I lived without transitioning as a child and I think the decision should be reserved for adults (just like we do not let kids drink or consent to have sex with adults). And all of these transgender specific policies are just thinly veiled programs designed to program children into making adult choices when they are still highly influenceable kids. I did not need policies to make me more comfortable as a transgender; I needed policies to protect me from vicious people irregardless of my identity. So I wish they would stop putting subclauses in everything.


and we missed it too because once again the RG rolls over and plays dead.


Good morning, Dick. If this were a one-off I'd agree with you, but fake news is not lies or propaganda when it's proven CNN (and the NYT and WaPo, et al) do it over and over and over again. The one-off in this case is that CNN actually did something about it. Normal they print the story in bold print on the front page above the fold (so to speak) and the retraction (if any) on page 23 in fine print. It's called The Drive-by Media for a reason.


So why aren't you using Old English? That is clearly where your mindset is.

You want to use a word whoseeating has changed. If you want others to believe you don't know the English language, go right ahead. Let the rest of us speak modern English.

Just thinking out loud......perhaps there is some middle ground here. Suppose the NHL didn't shut down for those 17 days AND allowed players to attend the Olympics? A team could be restricted to how many players they could send/lose....perhaps by seniority. This keeps the NHL open for business while also keeping the union happy. Players are replaced by AHL'ers on the farm team AND the parent club would gain some cap space during the 17 days. In addition, all NHL teams would play 6 games (no more...no less) during the Olympics.

I, for one, do not like these compressed schedules featuring back-to-back or 4 in 5 nights. Perhaps this suggestion might help !! (I know....when pigs fly)

The headline says, "Trudeau rejects new Internet tax to help fund media sector."

Did he actually personally do this?  Or did the Liberal government together with their staff make this decision and Jr. is just taking credit for it?  And the media is complicit in celebrating and glorifying Jr.?

Wow, quite something to take credit for . . . an announcement that they won't be taxing us even more.  That's like thinking someone should be happy when you tell them you were going to punch them 15 times, but you've decided to only punch them 10.

Voters are not "staying" with Trump.  Current approval rating stands at 37 percent and falling for Trump presidential occupancy; worst rating in history at same time in office of past presidents going back to 1945(72 years).  Obamas rating at the same time-60%.  Even Nixon had a better rating.

So, the satiric one doesn't believe an investigation is appropriate, and would rather leave it to individual lawsuits.  Huh.


"I hope the suit she is “planning” to file bankrupts her." I bet that the attorney representing her is working on contingency, thinking that he'll take in 40% of several million dollars.


We are $20 Trillion in debt, we don't need more subsidized feel good projects like the Fire Island Wind Farm. The Paris Accords result in corporate lobbyists stealing from taxpayers to meet ridiculous goals.


"An average of recent polls by Real Clear Politics put his approval rating at about 44 percent, low for a new president."

Here is False News by omission.....  The same poll has the " Is the country headed in the right direction" at 37.3 %. yes

Does sound very good but is spectacular improvement to the 17.4 % it was in October 2016 ... the end of the Obama era.


"...transparency is the only way to win trust."

Amen, Kathleen.  If Dolan wants money from parishes, he needs to be talking to parishioners and he needs to be showing the good that is done with the money that is given to the archdiocese.  So much news is about parish closings, school closings - and what was spent to refurbish St. Patricks.  But what was done for the poor and those in need in all these parishes?  I don't relate very well to millions spent to defeat legislation that would extend the statue of limitations on child sex abuse.  I wouldn't relate well to money spent to defeat gay marriage or money spent to "protect" the Little Sisters from having to include contraceptives in health insurance for all the non-nuns who work for them.  Or money spent on lawyers and press spokespersons when a good member of a parish is fired from a job for marrying his/her same sex partner.

He needs to find out what parishioners want to spend money on.  Don't think it is culture wars.

How about in the bathrooms on Waikiki beach?


I wonder aloud why minorities are so over represented on CNN. Charles is a far left leaning black bisexual. That is precisely the opinion he brings to both his written op eds and his commentary on CNN. Don is a black homosexual, who is always giggling about how weird he thinks the POTUS is. And before you paint me with the homophobic brush, I think Anderson Cooper is a terrific journalist, and someone who might be fun to have a beer with.


Oh please, this was just more snake oil sold by the carnival barker/ snake oil salesman in chief.   How many Hoosiers will suffer with everything that was given away in tax relief to supposedly save a few jobs temporarily before being taken over by automation?  You've got to study the details, because President Trump to this day, has proven that he does not sweat or even glance over them.


His "personal" attorney during the campaign.  So what? This doesn't even suggest impropriety!  Liberal media just trying to stir up controversy and sell news meant to mislead.
