Far right extremism is dangerous for sure. It has been suggested here that there is no far left terrorism or that somehow one spectrum's terrorist is more dangerous. My only point is that political based terrorism exists on both sides of the political spectrum and measuring how dangerous one is becomes purely speculative ergo opinion. It is complete idiocy imo, to even associate any of these wingnuts with any mainstream kind of political label. None of them represent any known part of any political spectrum, they exist in a different political ideological realm than the rest of us. Using far right/left terrorist as proof of concept against any political mainstream system is boogeyman politics.

I think it is a well researched and properly peer reviewed publication from a reputable university. Naturally you don't because it basically proves your bias. Whatever....and anarchists are primarily far left. You don't get to change that because it doesn't fit your left is morally superior narrative. Yes, it is not good.

Nahanni and Wab are not trusted by native leadership at all. I can tell you that with absolute certainty. Many do not like the way they character assassinated Arlen because he withdrew AMC support for Ashton in the federal election. Don't ask me to prove it, and I don't care if you believe it, but I have this straight from the source from a very high ranking native political player in this province. Many in the native community have their knives out, especially for Nahanni who is the ring leader of this according to my source. Her sister-in-law was the one who lodged the complaint against Arlen that has never been substantiated. Greasy. My own people doing this to each other....disgusting.

Nah...don't care what you believe. Belief is free to all. As long as you realize that is just your opinion and not actual fact than right on. But I'll just leave this here anyway: https://extremism.gwu.edu/sites/g/files/zaxdzs2191/f/Anarchist - Left-Wing Violent Extremism in America.pdf See the link below.

I believe the far left has it's domestic terrorists as well. The PCs lasted 2 terms and defeated morons. It's kind of *** for tat. I am totally in favor of this CONs government getting the boot. They are rudderless, and really haven't done anything worthwhile since setting the economy back in track in their first term. However, people still remember Selinger and his cabinet of buffoons as well. When the NDP start raising that tax spectre, as they inevitably will have to do, watch the polls. People aren't enamored by Kinew. The best he can hope for is to be tolerated and that doesn't leave him much wiggle room.

The only thing different about the far left and the far right is the difference in perspective. It is complete ridiculousness to blame all of societies political woes on one side of the spectrum. Just a complete garbage take. For every far right thing you can drag up there can be an equally stupid far left position or statement linked as well. I will not convince you, so it is an exercise in futility just as your research above means nothing to me because I know that this comes from a very small minority of the population and I also know that the media bias on politics right now leaves very little truth in there anyway.
-
Maybe, maybe not....Wab will need a very good slate of candidates because he is drawing from an awfully underwhelming set of MLAs right now. If he can get some good people around him, and control his temper...who knows.
-
Evidently. Any time I hear political discussion these days it just keeps reminding me of that. Good thing you had time to go there and count them. Exactly right. The far left stinks just as bad as the far right.

I think that we are on the verge of a recession. The NDP will not be able to manage the economy, and fulfill their promises on public services during that time without raising taxes. Raising taxes goes over like a lead balloon in Manitoba. Leader? No idea. Yea....BC and Manitoba are going to cede half their northern mineral reserves and give them Saskatchewan and Alberta. You are correct, this is comedy relief. I don't know if that's intentional or not on Smith's part, and I don't care, she is Alberta's problem.

OK..so just bash anyone that brings any kind of different viewpoint by calling them morons etc is valuable to you? My goodness you guys

My opinion is that the PCs pull the plug on Heather this Spring
-
You are such a condescending ******. You think you are making a point but all you are doing is hating on people who disagree with you and not really adding nothing.
-
She didn't blame the carbon tax for inflation, she suggested suspending it would give people some much needed relief. You guys just spent the last few days taking down max power on his disinformation campaign. Be better yourselves.
-
Huh? It's not a federal election? I doubt that very highly. Wab Kinew is going to be a disaster as well, more than likely a one term premier. The Conservatives have to bow out now, they elected a weak sauce leader and badly need to regroup and find a new one.

Probably did think that, they are that dumb. -
That's my hope. Yep..happens at the political extremes. Time for the moderates to demand better than fear mongering in their parties.

Fair enough, but in this day and age I want a return to thinking things through from the media. Too many poor logic pieces out there. -
Don't Look Back - 2022/2023 Bombers Off Season
GCn20 replied to Wideleft's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Cherry picking one paragraph but ignoring the next is not clearly demonstrating what Hodge said. He also stated that if the Bombers decided to move on from Bryant, not vice versa, that Richmond would be a guy they would look at and even suggesting the Bombers might move on from Bryant this offseason is ridiculous and clueless. Yes, he stated that Bryant could choose to retire, but the next paragraph proposes his opinion of what would occur if the Bombers moved on. Idiotic. There is zero chance that the Bombers move on from Bryant this offseason unless he hurts himself training. -

2022/2023 Off-Season (League/Non-Bombers-specific News)

NICE! LOL -
Now I will await their follow through because it's been what 2 years now? Talk is cheap. If they actually follow through I will give kudos, but color me skeptical right now. All I want to see is some actual movement on this. I want the government of the day to step up the efforts in collection and prosecution for offenders, I want the dirt released on all the slimy corporations and citizens that took advantage of a well meaning program, and I want an all parties non-partisan committee to come up with solutions for it not happening again. Before anyone says it, yea I know that all of this is a pipedream.

The premise of his article was that the Bombers have too many players over 30 and need to get younger. He identified Bryant and a few others as players the Bombers might move on from. He is right that we have a few guys on the wrong side of 30, but Bryant is not one that should be discussed in this particular conversation. Said the Bombers might move on from him. At no point did I suggest he said the Bombers should move on from him. It is beyond stupid to think that the Bombers might move on from Bryant. If the GOAT wants to return Walters will hand him a contract 2 seconds later. Just an idiotic premise that the Bombers might look at moving on from him. Bryant will be a Bomber until his play dictates we need to move on, or he doesn't want to be. There is zero chance that we have a TIMEX on his career. Also, I am not quite clear why he is worrying about us aging out. We will play our vets until they cannot play at a level their contract dictates they should be at, and just as we have always done we will draft, scout, develop and sign players in FA to fill their spots when they no longer can go. How do the Bombers get younger was the premise of the article. The answer is pretty obvious and it doesn't involve putting a stop watch on players careers for the arbitrary reason of getting younger. We will get younger when we have to by superior scouting, drafting, and FA and through superior roster management, and having the best depth in the league that are ready to go and even push vets out of their way. The only time any team needs to worry about their core aging out is if they don't have quality depth behind them. Our depth has been unparalleled over the past few years, aging out is not a concern. -

Just a really bad reach even by his standards. -
Totally agree. I want an inquiry to fix this problem for the future, and I wanna know why so much is unrecoverable. I am not opposed to the pandemic stimulus spending, and I am not opposed to getting it out in a rush. What I am opposed to is how the hell billions of dollars were paid out to people who didn't qualify but is somehow unrecoverable. I get the predicament the government was in, and I just wanna make sure that some answers are given and some planning is in place so that the next time this happens we get full value without the financial abuse. Not trying to pin one on the Liberals here.

The auditor general revealed today that 27.4 BILLION dollars went out to ineligible recipients of various covid relief programs and that a lot of it will be unrecoverable. As a taxpayer of this country this concerns me. I don't care what political stripe you are, this should concern you too. I hope Trudeau does the right thing and calls a public inquiry into this for the sake of transparency, and to make sure that such disastrous roll out of benefits will never be repeated. This is gross mismanagement on a historic level and I would like to know who needs to lose their jobs for this.
