It's the Liberals who have been fiddling with gun laws for 30 years anytime they need a bump in the polls.

He’s a fucking multi millionaire & landlord.

What does that have to do with his kids? Do rich kids not have feelings?

Is the free market gonna help his non-verbal autistic daughter that he trots out whenever knowledge of her will serve him politically?

Moving twice in six months probably won't help her.

None of those are good reasons he should move out for the time it takes him to get a seat back, you're just angry at the guy.

Sometimes a joker doesn't seem good but it synergizes with others or it surprises you another way. This is not one of those.

If Toronto moved its Pride to August, who would come to Fiérté in Montreal?

Are insurance companies not on the hook for the properties they insure?

OK. I assure you, the insurance industry will continue to track it.

This is the same logic as "if we stop testing, the disease goes away"

Guaranteed this happens to at least one athlete. That many non-whites coming in for a work trip? Someone is going to get arrested.

As much as I want to believe this, so far the only source I've seen is Dean Blundell who is not what you would call a real journalist.

He handled it about as well as he could have. He was never going to get big concessions.

He placated Trump, told him we're not for sale, and then said a few things that sound like compliments if you don't listen too closely.

I was worried he was going to get Zelenski'd and have a shouting match.

All at the low cost of removing real news from Facebook and Instagram.

This program was a cash grab from day one, no surprise that the companies pushing it the hardest got the most.

What a great distraction from her ongoing scandals.

Anyone in Alberta who thinks separating will help Alberta is an idiot. If you join the US, you'll be Puerto Rico Norte, exploited for resources and excluded from the Union. If you think Trump will honor any deal he makes I don't even know what to say to you.

If you go it alone you'll be a landlocked nation of 4 million, with absolutely no leverage against the two big economies surrounding you.

Hell, even if they do this referendum and it fails, you've lost your negotiating leverage with Canada because we'll all see how it's an empty threat.

Quebec is clear eyed enough to see now is not the time to talk about separation.
