MeanSeanBean Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 2 minutes ago, Bob Long said: this is why I can't vote for the CPC. All the directive does is widen out what chaplains can do, it doesn't limit it. But PP spins it as "Trudeau stops remembrance day prayer" like the asshat PP is. PP's latest rage farming attempt is actually really disrespectful to all the non-Christian veterans that fought for us. I can not stand fear mongering that is directed at those who often stop at a headline or first paragraph. Many different groups engage in it, and it takes advantage of those who don't/can't critically think or actually research things as the happen to understand a subject fully. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PP has raised it to an art in Canada. But you are right, they all do it to some degree or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, please review how things work. If Blair directs chaplains are OK to do what they want to, thats what happens. And the wording doesn't outlaw prayer, thats just stupid and the take that PP wants you to believe. A prayer is a "spiritual reflection" ffs. You sound a little ragey. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I've had my mental state questioned numerous times in this thread for simply, plainly responding to posts It's as though when they don't like the response...they assign some amount of unhinged, rage-filled state to your post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean do you like being lied to? No one does, but you can't possibly think that the current PM is doing a good job. If you do, maybe you like lying to yourself. The country needs a change. The polling suggests people feel the same way. Pierre may be horrible, but he likely isn't going to be worse than the current setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, it very much can be worse, like it is every ten years or so when Canadians feel the need to remind themselves not to put the cons in power. By all means, I'm open to an alternative to the Liberals if someone has one, but the cons are CERTAINLY not it.

Satchmo Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I just hope everybody votes next election. Then we can get this tape/no tape thing cleared up one way or the other for at least a few years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maninthebox Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 "change for the sake of change because 'feelings' is ridiculous" pretty much sums up both the NHL's misguided attempt to ban rainbow tape as well as this new directive regarding how chaplains are allowed to pray at remembrance day ceremonies.

BPA Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 It was shown during intermission that there was one NHL player (forgot which player/game) already having rainbow tape on his stick. Guess we will see what happens next. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McIlhargey the Lesser Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Would really like to see a bunch of the stars use the tape on a night when most teams are playing. As protest. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
