The problem with Canada isn’t having to negotiate trade with the USA.

As predicted by Mr Turner, we have lost our industry, and we have sacrificed our energy development. Mr Turner thought it would be to the Americans, but it was to the Chinese and the green economy. At the time of this debate tariffs with the USA were in the range of 10-20%. The difference today is we have undermined our strength through decades of selling our industry off for cheap goods and state-mandated trends.

What’s interesting about that debate is Turner is a Liberal and Mulroney was the Conservative. Folks, there are no permanent friends or enemies, just permanent interests.

You can do it WAY cheaper than actually going on African Safaris. For example, my last 18 day wilderness Zimbabwe safari cost $28,000, whereas I can hunt for free on my own land.

Hunting on your own land for free is definitely an option. You just need a few frugal improvements to do it right.

$1000 for a mineral wallow
$500 for a water trough to keep the wildlife watered
$15,000 for an orchard for early season.
$2000 for chestnut trees to attract them late season.
$1000 for persimmon trees to attract them mid-season.
$12,000 for box blinds, tree stands, safety lines, etc.
$1000 for buddy heaters and comfy chairs for the box blinds.
$1000 for wildflower and pollinator seeding to create a complete ecosystem.
$2500 for managed forestry to ensure the acorn mast years encourage wildlife.
$2000 for controlled burns to regentrify prairie health.
$2500 for a good bow and proper arrows, you do want a clean pass through.
$3500 for a good crossbow so guests can make a clean kill.
$2500 for seed, planting, and glyphosate to ensure your bean plots, clover, and brassicas do well.
$5000 for a good rifle, powder, primer, bullets, and reloading gear for that perfect shot.
$400 for flashlights, because you need to recover the game shot at dusk.
$20,000 for a UTV to recover the deer because its a long walk.
$500 for a roto tiller to make false scrapes
$250 for licenses and tags
$1000 for early, mid, and late season clothes
$250 for a safety harness because safety matters

See, its way cheaper, practically free. You should see the size of the doe I shot last year "on the cheap"!

Is Iran, or more specifically the IRG, really dumb enough to try this?

Iran claims there is a $10 million bounty on Barron Trump​

Iranian state media has claimed there is a $10 million bounty on Barron Trump, President Donald Trump’s 20-year-old son, according to a new report nearly six months into the U.S. war with Iran.

Footage broadcast on Channel 3, which is linked to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, was titled “Where and how should we kill Barron Trump?” Euronews reported Monday.

It reportedly displayed the location of his university, as well as Secret Service positions and escort vehicles, while claiming his whereabouts were “fully monitored.”

It's funny that feminists are unironically making the case that women are too incompetent and fragile to handle the ordinary stresses of life without snapping and killing their kids. If they can't be trusted to not snap, why should they be allowed to vote, to drive, to hold jobs...to do anything unsupervised, really.

Is that what is being argued in that trial or are you just a plant for the Taliban?

Do you think men have ever argued that bipolar disorder and psychosis make them not criminally responsible for a murder?

Truth be told, you are way more likely to "snap" than just about any woman. And your post makes me think you are well on the way.

Unihabitable.

No worries on the auto correct, didn’t change the meaning of the context- happens to me all the time. Agreed, history does not favor many other outcomes or solutions. A suicidal, pseudo religious autocracy understands only one way. Like reasoning with the mentally ill.

Hey RLD, I identify as a turnip and no one likes me. I deserve a bunch of pro bono rep, media hype and sympathy, a wad of go fund me $ and a get out of jail free card.

Youre a lawyer. I am assuming all of those men would be found guilty.

Think you are just arguing for arguing sake.

Projection much?

Feminists are backing this nutjob and blaming her husband.

If a man had murdered his 3 kids, condemnation would come from every corner, including feminists, but most especially from other men. The feminists are circling the wagons and trying to excuse abhorrent behavior, blaming everyone and everything other than the woman who did the murdering.

I bet you're the sort who eats dinner with your wife's boyfriend.

I think they're blaming a system that failed to help her in any meaningful way when it was obvious to anyone with half a brain that there was something wrong with her (perhaps that's why some of you guys on here can't figure this one out). That doesn't excuse her actions. But this tragedy could have been prevented if more people helped her, or just gave a shit.

At some point we'll be right back here in the future because of those on the right who would rather scream about personal responsibility rather than improve a broken system. Do you think if you scream it loud enough it'll bring back those three kids?
