You're close but not quite. Take a big, clear glass and add some ice cubes. Now fill it with water and take a sharpie and mark the water line. When the ice has melted completely the water line will remain exactly the same. Ice (or any floating object) displaces an amount of water equal to its weight. Therefore the melted iceberg will not increase or decrease the sea level.

I disagree. Terrorism has a political ideology and a desire to scare people. This shooter probably had neither. He didn't want to scare folks or divide them or weaken them for political reasons. He just wanted to kill people. Probably lost touch with reality and went bonkers. Maybe all the talk about nuclear war with Korea drove him over the deep end. No, this was plain old American horrorism. A guy goes crazy and wants to kill as many people as possible then die in a blaze of narcissistic "glory". Happens every 18 months since the Vietnam War.

The idea that even all Muslims in Canada support this ill-conceived motion is patently false, never mind the majority of thoughtful Canadians alarmed at this latest assault, even if symbolic, on our freedom of speech. The opposition to M-103 stems from the obscurantist language, tendentious neologism ("Islamophobia"), and special-interest privileging that make up the core of the motion.

"Define an "assault weapon", and explain to us why you feel they aren't already regulated? I can't wait to hear this. This should be amusing." The U.S. Department of Justice defines it as: "In general, assault weapons are semiautomatic firearms with a large magazine of ammunition that were designed and configured for rapid fire and combat use." The AR-15 is a prime example of an assault weapon and the one I will refer to if you go by the DOJ's definition and since it's the weapon of choice among gun enthusiasts as well as it being on the minds of the general public in light of the recent Las Vegas massacre. In a nutshell, this magazine-fed, semiautomatic firearm isn't regulated and since the M16 is the military adaptation of the AR-15, we know it's fully capable of rapid fire (e.g., 800 rounds per minute rate of fire) and combat use with the right modifications. For this reason, such legally sold assault weapons should be banned.

Hi, OG ... I was certainly puzzled reading your claim that salaries and benefits amounted to only $8.6B out of expenditures of an Ontario budget of $133.5B. Given the over 1.2 million people now employed in Ontario's broader public sector, this means the average public employee earns under $7200 a year in pay and benefits. It seems you are only calculating the pay, perks and pensions burden of the roughly 1/9 of public employees in the civil service proper which thus omits police, teachers, transit workers, etc., etc. I suggest you reconsider your comment that my figures are wildly out of whack. As a former compensation expert, this is highly unlikely, OG. I have a life to lead outside this place. So please do a bit more research yourself. Start by googling "Ontario Finance Minister PERSON says pay and benefits of the broader public sector now amounts to 55% of the operating budget". If this doesn't clarify whose figures are out of whack, I'll post links. Cheers.

Automation is absolutely not a bad thing, and is necessary for future increases in productivity and prosperity. But there are social problems with the transition, as workers are displaced and in some cases cities become hollowed out. This needs to be taken seriously. Economic theory says that removing the need for low-productivity jobs frees up resources to move to higher-productivity jobs, and to some extent it works -- e.g. consider that it is far cheaper and easier to hire landscaping and cleaning services in third world countries than in first world countries. But there are pretty significant questions as to how well this will work going forward, whether our education system is equipped to improve our workforce that much, how long it takes for demand to ramp up for the higher productivity work, etc.
