Popular Post RupertKBD Posted June 20 Popular Post Share Posted June 20 27 minutes ago, bolt said: Major issues all made worse by the Liberals. Glad we can finally agree on something. Pretty lame deflection.... Pro tip: If you make a broad assertion of "fraud", someone is likely going to call you on it and request that you back it up with facts, rather than your obviously biased opinion. If you are unable to provide those facts, you should probably refrain from making such assertions, lest you end up looking hopelessly partisan and incapable of engaging in good faith debate. Just one Muppet's opinion..... 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhippy Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 I remember growing up in a conservative minded household in an orchard. Without actual proof of a crime or charges being laid, accusations of that sort were essentially verboten because that's how our national system of law works. But finger pointing and constantly screeching lies without proof or the ability to back them up was usually considered pretty low character in a person because it meant they were willing to lie to further their own standing 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the right wing adoption of the US attack politics. It all began with John Baird, a man too scared to live his real life, acting like a bully in the House. It's a direct line from today, to him.

So much so that I would have no problem voting for a conservative like that. Unfortunately Pierre is not that guy. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure many families would use it for their kids but many do not I would like to see all public schools have a breakfast and lunch program and an after hours access to washers and dryers ( don’t laugh .. many welfare homes have no such access ) the more we can do to equalize the ability to learn ….

Maybe they can do it together and have a bigger impact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
