Maybe they do. But the fact that Blue Cross covers it and the Mayo Clinic acknowledges that it can be effective says something. I waded into this because I know people who have definitely been helped by homeopathy. For example, chronic bronchitis for which they were given prescription after prescription by the medical system.

Wanting federal money to support homeopathy is a big deal because it shows a willingness to waste public money on something with no benefit. The only effect it has is the placebo effect and there is no way quackery should be funded by the government. That the party policy supports this tells me that a vote for that party is wasted because it shows how poor their judgement is in a significant area. What else do they have these kinds of poor judgement on? FYI blue cross covers homeopathy. But I guess it's all a placebo effect just because you say it is.To be fair, most people say it is. How about medical professionals? The Mayo Clinic for example: http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/consumer-health/in-depth/alternative-medicine/art-20045267

That seems strange. Why is she against WIFI?If she supports homeopathy in conjunction with traditional medicine no harm in that. Homeopathy actually does help some people. It has it's pros and cons just like anything else Well I mean it's essentially a placebo effect. Not harmful, but I wouldn't support spending taxpayer money on it. You should research further...

Election 2015
This is exactly why it's mind blowing that anyone thinks the NDP would be could economic managers. I guess when you hve no problem raising taxes it's easy to pay for everything. Depends - I think someone like Gary Doer would make a good Prime Minister. Jack Layton with some decent cabinet ministers would've had potential.

And those players are the key to good special teams play. Bringing in as many as you can is just a bloody good idea.

Election 2015
Well the Libs really had no competition in the 90's, That and they balanced the books and the economy was Web 1.0 After Quebec 4 years ago and Alberta this year I can see the NDP winning. Okay so im looking at the polls too. Would mean a major shift towards younger voters. Do you really think the Cons have legitimate competition? I think the most change we can expect is a Con minority. The reasons the NDP won so many seats last time are worth considering: 1. Jack Layton 2. People in Quebec not even paying attention to who the candidates actually were 3. The Liberal collapse Two or even three of those factors are no longer in play.

Election 2015
The Cons will win again, for the same reason the Libs won all those majorities in the 90's.

It looks like supply management is on the way out, which will be a blow for producers who invested millions in their quotas. Will they be compensated?

Charleston Shooting
Self inflicted long term death - just another first world problem. There is a lot of self inflicted harm we as a society engage in. Smoking. Which is now being replaced as the "cool" thing to do by vaping. Drinking soda. I love me some Dr Pepper. Consuming far too much meat and processed foods.

The Winnipeg old boys club.
We went after Stubler, Washington, Steinaurer and a couple other before hiring Etch.Guess when you fire coaches every year or 2 nobody wants to come here. And if someone you hired was your 5th choice, where's the cronyism?
