Vote the government out!
He is not the government even if he is the prime of many ministers.

sticks and stones type insults in my opinion often say more about the speaker than the target.

Is that an insult?

Also joking aside, your insult towards me above is more of an insult than anything I have said about Trudeau. Prove me wrong.

That is not an insult. It is an expression of my opinion based on my experience. There is the clear option for two positions.

 

In this case it is up to each reader to decide if the comments you or I made say more about the speaker or the person spoken about.

 

Your comments about his brother and mother were in my opinion inappropriate not a joke or meant to be a joke.

His brother died in a skiing accident. Here was his response. https://youtu.be/PcD...conVkCpHJI&t=40

Odd especially when you compare it to this response. https://www.youtube....h?v=YgGxDHiUR50

 

This provides plenty of material for inuendo for my movie script!

 

Then 

 

His mother did have a relationship with Castro. To what degree we may never know. But the rumors are interesting and he does look a lot like Castro. 

 

"“Fidel made it clear in his opening remarks that the parents were important but not nearly as important as the baby. In some pictures Fidel had a big patch of wet saliva on his uniform because he had come over early to cuddle the baby.”

She remembers Castro during that visit as a “very warm and charming man — I enjoyed him.”

Again, great material for my movie script.

 

As in "an expression of my opinion based on my experience"

I said my script would begin when his brother died. I didn't say anything about his brother. Or with his mom's love affair with Castro. I didn't say anything about her. It is also hardly insulting to say that. Castro was an attractive and powerful man. Worthy of a love affair. I said these things in reference to making a movie script. Any insult perceived is your own triggering and your own work to do.

You would think that our national news provider would cover a story like the Farmer's Protest in Quebec wouldn't you?

 

Here is some info on the topic. https://tnc.news/202...armers-protest/

 

...or this guy who has some video and a load of opinions.  https://www.youtube....h?v=DD4f9d6g1Q4

 

This topic will probably need its own thread.

Ya. It was even stranger being on the lawn of the Legislature with many thousands packing every square inch, with a jubilant atmosphere and Brian Peckford, one of the original signers of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, speaking. Then the CBC lying about numbers and calling everyone horrible names.

ABC Chair Kim Williams has told staff to remain impartial or leave the organisation as he declares activism is not welcome at the national broadcaster.

 

Mr Williams, who replaced Ita Buttrose as ABC chair two weeks ago, said he would have little tolerance for journalists who fail to remain objective in their reporting.

 

'If you don't want to reflect a view that aspires to impartiality, don't work at the ABC,' he told host Monica Attard in a recent episode of the podcast The Fourth Estate.
