It started in earnest in 2015 with CNN et al, the both-siding, the equivocating, the normalizing, etc. It was stomach-turning then but it's deep in the DNA now.

Best not to get into the "a true scotsman" fallacy or to chase your own tail.

Canada PM Carney says unable to rule out military role in Iran war Canadian leader also said the US-Israeli attacks on Iran appear to be 'inconsistent with international law'.

It doesn't seem to be a secret. The rest of the world seems to understand what it is just fine.

I had no idea there were that many families sleeping outside. Around here people get up, turn on the lights, get to a bathroom, and couldn't tell you what kind of day it is until they're outside on their way to school or work. cheeeesh.

Yes, the right is not our ally. But seeing the situation as Russo-Uranian is mistaking Trump and his minions for rational actors. In modern history we don't even have a good comparison, mayyybe Hitler after 1942. It's a trap to think there is one.

I just hope for ol'Charlie's sake that he doesn't think that's is news to somebody.

He tossed the killer phrase "We've been here before" into a situation that has no meaningful relationship to any situation canada has been in since, well, since canada. Then in got worse with UN lauding, Bidenizing the Republicans, etc. Generals fighting the last war are doing better.

In situations with an uncountable number of variables any conclusion drawn about one aspect is fairly meaningless. I thought the regime change in 1945 in Germany and Japan has gone rather well, but they don't prove anything either.

If it's just 'some' that have that fear that could be the problem for them right there.

Ah, I misread your "We believe PM Carney’s moderate approach to these cultural divides will lead to better lasting outcomes for all cultures." as being that it was Carney's approach that would do the trick. np.

Hold it. Charlie Angus just told us last week that Carney was unfit to be PM .... who does he have in mind ..??😵‍💫

Not a good comparison because home renters don't need to take the home with them, so this is a MUCH bigger problem for the affected people. Yes, the misunderstanding of the situation you noted is part of the issue but it's not 'just another rental cancellation'.

There are employers getting away with paying men say $20.00 /hr and the women working beside him doing the same job $17.60 ? That does need to end, now.

If I thought he treats white supremacy, misogyny, racism, etc as 'cultural divides' I'd be hard down on him. That was Biden's error.

"Critics are not happy" ok, that seems normal. The problem seems to be that each critic cited has their own complaint, focused on their individual circle of interest. It's likely very hard to find that much happiness to pass around.

So did Chamberlain. And Biden.

The other obvious option is to do what's done in every avenue of life, science, history, etc. Call something that is different by a different name rather than realizing it's different but insist on calling it all by one name.

Yes, because it's not a solvable situation when you start with such unrelated qualification as male-female. Categories need to follow boxing "lightweight" .. .. "heavyweight" where the divide is by something meaningful to the sport. There are even women's events in bridge tournaments !!??

Thanks, but not grasping how that explains how white supremacy is an expression of love, or how racism is or .....

I've never thought of the conservative fringe of white supremacists as just having a different perspective on love. Or the racist wing either. Likely won't find a route to it either.

History can be very forgiving when something is successful and pound good ideas with unlucky outcomes. Think the moon walk. If Pence believes this attack might have a good outcome ( I'd lay verrry long odds against) then he hasn't totally lost his mind.

Per capita isn't much use when historical comparison is made or in such a hierarchical workforce. The effects of automation and technological changes alone throw any attempt at it off kilter. Then there's things like like management ratios etc.

"Receiving that highest honour [the Presidential Medal of Freedom] is something I'll be so proud of and as I get older, I can show my kids." I hope his kids have taken a history class by then and wonder why the pride in an award from a sexist, racist, fascist, convicted fraud, sex offender.

Hmmmm... that could be, it's about on par for that source.

I'm trying to picture Liberals with one cohesive political plan - they're not ideologues, that's their attraction. Here, if they choose Carney to draw Cons they misjudged 'bigly' -- the Con vote went up, the NDP vote went down. Voting isn't an opinion poll -- we get to actually pick members.

When is it otherwise? Calling 'heads' is the same as calling 'Not Tails'. If we think they're 'the same' then we can stay home like the non-Kamala's decided.

In some ridings many Liberals voted NDP because that was the way to get their values represented with the alternative being the right-wing candidate of the CPC.

The opposite. They were voting their values. Our role is to choose leaders that we think will do the best for the country ( 'best' in terms of what we value ).

Not following. What has the USA got to do with this? If Turkey invokes Article 5 .. shrug.

I know NDPs who voted Liberal, Greens who voted Liberal, Cons who voted Liberal -- none have suggested it was because 'Trudeau is gone' but because 'it's A or B, and B is very bad for us.'
