Couldn't help myself. I replied...

One of Trump's strengths... well perhaps effects is a better word... is that his influence forces some things to a head.

This random judge thing where they pop up and undermine the chief executive position as if they supposedly have the power to do so is bizarre.

I don't argue the merit of them doing so in either direction but it seems a gray area that has long needed to be resolved.

We shall see
 
There has been a growing separatist movement in the west of Canada for a while. The west gets nothing for equalization payments from the federal government, while Quebec get hundreds of millions. Quebec tried to separate but realized that they wouldn’t get most of Canada’s tax dollars, and they got a whole bunch rights into the constitution. Alberta has about a quarter of the seats in parliament than the Maritime provinces but the same population. Quebec always votes Liberal or Parti Quebecois which is Liberal with a french name, they get most of the federal tax dollars because they are special. The Maritime Provinces also get more social welfare benefits than the west. Ontario votes Liberal because of all the immigrants from 3rd world nations and the free gravy train that comes with it. So Manitoba westerly gets to pay taxes for everyone else to receive the benefits. The west has always been exploited by the Liberals and never voted for them. I hope they separate and I will be out west in a heartbeat, because the east is turning Canada into a 3rd world shithole!
Rant over.
Something to consider , a fair portion of those conservative votes out west are from Atlantic Canada. A large portion of my age group had to move away to find decent employment opportunities. If not for the lobster industry keeping sou west Nova afloat and some of the younger demographic here we’d likely of gone liberal as well.
 
Can anyone clarify when mark carney has to declare his assets? He has 60 days from the time he is sworn in to declare them to the ethics commissioner and then another 60 days before they go public. Does that number go from his original march 14th day of his original swearing in or does it reset itself because of the election?

So far it has come out that mark carney while chair of economic growth for canada (under trudeau) he negotiated a 250 million dollar loan for Brookfield assets management from the people’s bank of china. Who knows what other skeletons will fall out of the closet when his full portfolio is disclosed.
 
POTUS approves weapons shipment to Ukraine. Amazing if true.


I was waiting to learn what President Trump's plan was.
Now we know.
1. Mineral/Investment deal with Ukraine
2. Russia withdraws from peace talks
Trump can now do what he darn well pleases!
Like selling arms to Ukraine!

As the fictional Colonel Hannibal Smith would say...

What he needs to do is changes the rules of behavior where any weapons purchased by Ukraine come with no strings attached and they can damn well do as they please including blowing up whatever they want in Russia. Until the Russia public sees pain in Russia they will continue to believe the propaganda that everything is going as planned.

Trump needs to send Mr T to negotiate with Putin

It's a 50 million usd arms sale to Ukraine

Trump is petty and mercurial. Russia may come to regret not taking his olive branch.

If things start to move in the direction of Trump taking an anti-Putin position, I hope Zelensky has the good sense to take advantage of it and ingratiate himself to the Trump administration.

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
