No it's about the lack of leadership he has shown.

No one is trying to excuse it, simply looking at some root problems as to why people go down that path.

Personal responsibility is great... but if you completely discount the role that a person's surroundings play you are missing a big part of the picture.

And this is where a lot of the disagreements between aides comes from on this issue. On one hand you have the people who want to punish criminals. On the other hand you have people who want to rehabilitate criminals into productive members of society. I personally side with rehabilitation simply because it is shown to be a more effective way to approach things rather than fostering career criminals. There are also societal failings which lead to bad choices for people stuck in those situations. People in poor disenfranchised populations are more likely to get sucked into that life because the influences around them create a situation where the trap happens.

I know this, I'm just saying that reasoning has been used to justify gas taxes before. I guess I wasn't clear, I was more surprised the right was using some semblance of logic to justify it as opposed to some bullcrap.

at least the logic makes sense. The logic behind gas taxes is to maintain roads so ...

you know what, the restrictions for restaurants will help. It is crazy how busy those places have become and none of the staff care about households (and I don't blame them, they don't need to deal with that crap) I feel bad for business owners who keep getting jerked around but people have proven time and time again in the past year that they can't be trusted to do the right thing.

The funct, the whole funct, and nothing but the funct?

At what point to we stop making excuses for the league and just admit they've ****** up this entire situation?

And less people shot by cops with itchy trigger fingers.

She has to play the game or kenney will put a true sycophant in her place.

Old man yells at clouds and holds grudge despite a player bouncing back from a poor year.

******* Trudeau did this! I heard it on Friday at the construction site I was at!

Well and the one game he got to start the opposing D kicked the offenses ass all day long.

Kenney had already pissed off his base by having what restrictions we do.thats how sad parts of Alberta are

May the 4th be with us

Have you looked at the UCP in Alberta lately?

Well it doesn't help that we have an open border with them. Even with the "closure" of the border. So yes it does make some difference. The influence politically and socially that the US has should not be diminished either. You can find proud Trump supporters in Canada. That poisons the ability to be our own country with our own response. Unrelated I will also say that vaccines are not likely to eradicate the disease... what they will do is prevent people from dying or getting extremely sick, and make it more like colds and flus we already deal with.

But they were going to buy that ivory backscratcher...

The fundies are in total control of that party. The are no conservative parties left worth voting for.

Man if Trump's supporters understood how little these grifters think of them they'd be pissed...

McMahon is showing it's age very badly. Needs an upgrade in the worst way unfortunately calgary seems more focused in an arena for the fLames than ever talking about a new stadium.

These are helped by lower prices. Long term investment.

Maybe some of the rich assholes who own teams should check their couch cushions.

Yeah I don't know what the prices are in winnipeg but calgary has stupid pricing.
