@JamesPrescott77 That’s a ridiculous argument. One is a story based on historic events between two real peoples in a real city that has become a pillar is western literature.The other is pure pop fiction that will be forgotten within 20 years.
Ethiopia was never colonized.
For much of its history, it was one of the poorest countries on the continent.
Meanwhile, Vietnam was colonized by the French, devastated by decades of war, and is now on its way to serious economic prosperity.
If colonialism were the answer to why Africa is poor, Ethiopia should be rich and Vietnam should be broke. Neither is true.
Can we please retire this excuse?
How Canada’s Liberal Party wrecked a once prosperous, safe. and happy country in a decade.

@TheCarneyFiles@EffieGib This is misleading. While there were several programs aimed at assisting Canadian banks with liquidity, they were in the form of loans or asset swaps. Which did not cost the Canadian taxpayer anything and in many cases generated profits.
16 Canadians are dead. 13 more were injured. A deportation order was issued…
That should be the end of the story.
Instead a federal judge intervenes, @CBCNews runs a sympathy piece, and suddenly the conversation is about HIM.
Canada has laws. They meant something at sentencing. Why don’t they mean something now?
His family are Indian citizens. India is stable. They can go be a family there. The 16 families who lost someone don’t get that option.
This is what happens when sentiment becomes more powerful than the law.
disappointing to see that there is not a single founder, startup CEO, tech entrepreneur, VC, or innovation-economy builder on this committee
this is an old-economy 🦕 list:
> 12 legacy-industry executives or industry association leaders (aluminum, auto parts, steel, rail, pipelines, mining, agri, dairy, forestry, manufacturing, chamber)
> 5 former politicians or current provincial premier
> 2 labour leaders
> 1 bank CEO
> 1 Indigenous business association CEO
> 1 cultural industry executive
> 1 academic / US-politics specialist
This Easter, I invite you to look at Jesus, consider what he said and did, and ask for yourself what I believe is the most important question you will ever answer: Did he really leave behind an empty tomb? And if he did, what does that mean for you?

It’s time to abolish Teachers Unions. They have become the Marxist revolutionary arm of the Red/Green alliance. Marxists and Islamists working together to destroy the west! Using our tax dollars to fund it! Share if you agree & participate fully in upcoming elections!!
@preta_6 Schwartz’s is a must. Lemeac is great French food (not cheap), Joe Beef Amazing (not cheap) and Satay brothers — cheap and cheerful and Le Vin Papillon.
@jkenney@globeandmail There has definitely been a change of thinking at the Globe. They have abandoned their Marxist lense on all issues — I guess the threat of impending economic collapse and potential loss of sovereignty will do that to you.
