Attaching any part of your identity to the admiration or hate of any political figure has gotta be the worst take of the 2020's here in Canada.
There's a truck in my town that I see from time to time with 4 hockey-stick Canada flags that "rolls coal" every time I see him. It's just so lame - serious small-dick vibes emanate from these people.
My FIL warned me about "Flag Wavers". He came to the US from Germany in 1929.
that republican style conservative in Canada is < 10% of the population
as opposed to half a country
And he was right. XXXer, you're lucky it is only 10% of the population as once it get to 30%-40% it really sucks to be around. Further exacerbating the issue is the US media which is allowed to blast out outright lies which those same people swallow as gospel. It isn't right and the government should be suing these companies asses off for lying. And fuck your Free Speech. You're not allowed to lie and present it as fact.Quote:

I think the Pano guy is very anti-trudeau. But that would fit right in with your 5% guess.Quote:

I think i might have even voted progressive conservative ( an oxymoron ?) back in the last century when those guys were just the boring people at a party but the present day alternative is not your father's conservative party, they are whacko nut jobs who can't get elected because they are whacko nut jobs , JT will have his hands full next election but I don't think its a done deal
if the Cons wana run the country they need the 905 and Quebec and to do that they need to moderate and be electable by the 905 & Quebec
Locally the PNW is > 30% FN and they vote NDP, I don't think the Libs even have credible local candidates, the conservative is a tattoo artist with tats and shit in her face ( a-la pulp fiction) kind of funny eh

LANCE
No, that's Jody. That's my wife.
Its getting better but I can't help it, I hear Vincent when I see people with face piercings
imagine a whacko nut job voting for a conservative candidate with shit in her face and a lot of tats
and its well known she owns a skull
well trump got elected twice ;) so they will do anything to win
Still passing judgements.
Check
MP makeup in BC is kinda interesting. 15 Lib MPs, all in the lower mainland, 13 Cons, mostly in interior industrial centers or areas with a large makeup of remote worker redplate O&G workers (i.e Okanagan or east Koots), 13 NDP MPs from Van Is and various interior union/govt town strongholds, and one Green from the gulf islands. In many of those ridings, people vote for party and generally not for the candidate. No other province seems to have such an even split between the 3 main parties.Quote:

Also this week in Cubanadastan

Still haven't met anyone up here who cares about this (or even knows about it, for that matter).Quote:

I don't think handgun ownership by the average canadian was ever much of a thing, when i did an FAC back in the day that handgun cert was extra and nobody in the classroom was doing it they just wanted to be able to buy a long gun to kill bambi's
do we think there are suddenly a bunch more fuck trudeau people or is it just the same old people who are now more vocal ?
Ha, this literally came up this past weekend.Quote:

However, I doubt this subject will come again up for quite some time, we just happened to be at a hunting camp during hunting season.
Personally I don't have any guns, nor care if I ever do, I may have a different attitude if we had big cats and brown bears out here though.
I'll jump in. I care. I bet rugbydave cares (although he hasn't been on here in forever), as usual the gov't is making up law that only "punish" the licensed gun owner. Enforce the laws that already exist and "we" wouldn't need to use an OIC (which should be the real concern here, bypassing the parliamentary system). I'll go out on a limb and say the banning of selling legally owned handguns will not result in a reduction in crime.
Of course it won’t reduce crime or shootings. It will affect the retailers in small communities that still sell them.Quote:

most of the shootings are drug related and i'm thinking those folks don't worry about Gun licensing

Just saw a FB post from AUS and the guy posted a picture of his new competition air rifle. First reply "You going to the US? His reply "Thinking of visiting some schools." Reply back "Those blokes are nuts."
Exactly.Quote:

I'm pretty sure I've read a "fuck trudeau" post on here, or something equivalent.Quote:
