Canadian Politics

I didn't think we had a thread for this. 

Is Trudeau this out of touch or does he just not care?

    The holocaust comparisons have me legit sick to my stomach. There is not one thing in Canada going on right now that compares to the start of the holocaust. No red flags. Not a one. They built the f

First off... I would never knowingly make a racist remark to anyone. 

Secondly- you know nothing about me and what I have experienced in my life time, so please- temper your rhetoric.

Thirdly- the below post is what I was commenting on- there is no mention of race, racism or not agreeing "with his right to be sad over blatant racism against his people." 

Like most of what you post in this thread- you are wrong.

My sincerest apologies. I am sorry, I thought you were referencing my response to the disgusting grave robbing in BC. Please accept my apologies on that. I was hurt and really didn't remember another reference where I referenced being saddened. In the future if I ever feel like that again I will give any member the benefit of the doubt to clarify through PM. I would also like to apologize to the rest of the forum for my outburst. It's a topic that has been front of mind for me since reading it yesterday, and I should not have assumed anything. I hope you can understand where i was coming from and why that stung me.

Respectfully, I am ashamed of that outburst and will leave this discussion as sometimes I get too triggered by it. Have at er guys....it's been a fun past time discussing politics with you all. See you all on the football side of the forum.

Fair. 

I totally commend you for admitting and rectifying your mistake. 

Thank you and I sincerely appreciate your apology.

We are in total agreement with the heinous actions of those mother *******. ******* disgusting.

So basically - no one is doing it right.

Anyone want to take a guess at how many light bulbs are in use at any one time across the departments that Buildings & Maintenance are responsible for?  Also, Buildings & Maintenance are notoriously understaffed and therefore need to prioritize their calls.  Heaven help everyone if heating/cooling goes down.

Weird how people say things they regret when they don't take the time to consider what other people are saying.

Not true at all. However, if that is your world view have at er. You have your beliefs, I have mine. I respect your right to disagree with mine. However, you are right....rarely is it done correctly in the public service unfortunately.

If it's rarely done right, then my statement is at least partially true.

No worries, we all make mistakes.

But as you showed, it's how you rectify them that makes a difference for the better.

To all forum members on this thread. I have come to the decision that talking politics with you guys is not bringing out the best in me, and I wish to withdraw from the conversation. I respectfully ask that you not suck me back into the vortex, ignore my past posts, and just let me be. An unfortunate incident today has me wishing just to leave this thread for my own, and everyone else's, personal happiness. Thanks for understanding. Carry on....great thread.

I am, but as usual, you refuse to see that because it doesn't fit your narrative. I will not miss your banter on here one bit. I would ask you to stay classy but I know better. Thanks for disrespecting my wishes and efforts to do the same.

How can I say goodbye when you won't leave?

I'm not the only one waking up to the reality of virtue signalling over substance that is emanating from that. You want to discuss policy, fine....let's do that...but respectfully for a change.

Oh man that's rich coming from a conservative voter.... what policy have the conservatives put forth? They do nothing but virtue signal,  except it's to the virtues of the right wing base. Woke! socialist! Communist!

You are the one dragging me back. Want me gone....say no more. It's easy. Good bye. You complain I am still here, but I am only still here because you decided to take cheap shots at me out the door. I will stay away if you just let me. Deal?

Hey they wrote this down on their webpage:

The Conservative Party of Canada is founded on the principles of peace and freedom on the world stage; responsible management of taxpayers' money; a welcoming land of refuge for the world’s persecuted and afflicted; the defence of clean Canadian technologies; and a clear understanding of responsibilities between levels of government.

Why do you want to stay???

I don't. But I will defend myself. I asked respectfully to bow out for my own mental health and cheap shots were fired...twice. Pretty low brow tactics imo.

Gcn20 asked you to leave him alone yet you kept baiting him like now. I'll say what he should have said to you. Take your left wing garbage & shove it. You're an asshat.

Written tongue in cheek, no doubt.
