What's that you're screaming? Sorry, ma'am: once you're strapped in, there's no going back.

Yes the ride comes with a free shower and clean underwear after. any other questions?

But... If I had to choose between that and a bungee jump or a jump out of a perfectly good airplane, I'd take the swing.

Shed a tear for these people who are struggling to make it on such limited funds.

In the wake of the attack on Charlie Hebdo, it's unimaginable that this can happen in Canada. First time I've had three comments deleted in one day by CBC.ca

(Headline) http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/israeli-strike-in-syria-kills-senior-hezbollah-figures-1.2917260

1: My deleted comment was: ''Hats off to Israel.'' (Note: I had received 24 ''likes'' on this comment.)

2: (Same story.) Deleted comment was: Looking at some of the leftist comments on this page, I think our real enemies are right here in Canada. '' (10 likes)

3: (Same story) Deleted commnet was ''Sadly--the leftist CBC supporters are never shown the comments that are being deleted.'' (3 likes)

Thus what the CBC is saying here is simple. If you want to comment on this story, look at it our way, or we'll delete your comments.

I will note that I've never had a comment deleted on National post or Sun News.

A lot of stolen goods change hands in Vancouvers drugs ghetto. Who could have guessed that people that don't work for a living but need copious funds for drugs would commit crimes ? Shocked I tells yu !

I've never commented on the CBC's website and don't follow them on Facebook / Twitter.

The comments I've posted on National Post / Calgary Herald (prior to last month or so when it went subscription only) and Sun news including all 3 of these social sites have never been censored or deleted.

If the CBC wanted your opinion, they'd give it to you first... ;)

Seriously guys.. every click on CBC is a stat they use to justify their continued existence.

http://www.nationalpost.com/m/wp/news/blog.html?b=news.nationalpost.com/2015/01/19/national-post-editorial-board-tax-credits-needlessly-costing-the-government-billions&pubdate=2015-01-20

How many billions? A recent report by the Fraser Institute put the total cost of all federal “tax expenditures,” as they’re called in official parlance, at $155-billion. Some of these are defensible: for example, RRSPs and Tax Free Savings Accounts, though counted as tax expenditures, do not introduce new distortions into the tax system, but rather remove them, preventing the double-taxation of savings that would otherwise occur. But the report identified no fewer than 68 tax credits that served mostly political ends and complicate the tax code for no identifiable benefit to society. Total cost: $23-billion.

An extra $23-billion in federal revenue would have balanced the books two years ago. Or, as the Institute recommends, it could be used to dramatically lower tax rates on the middle class, dropping both the current 22% and 26% brackets down to the 15% base rate, at no net cost to the treasury. That would leave 98% of Canadians paying the lowest rate, while the remaining 2% paid the 29% top rate. (The report includes a further option of raising the threshold at which the top rate would apply to $250,000, though this would mean some net loss of revenue.)

Not a fan of the the Harper special tax cuts. They should be eliminated and the the marginal tax rates reduced overall as recommended by the Fraser institute. That's a lot of coin in everyday peoples' pockets.

Glenn also forgot to mention that he supports turdeaus carbon tax a real boon to the economy and mulcairs gun registry so we know where glenn is coming from glenn is probly on the gov dole some how. and is simply looking for a raise!!

Could you imagine if the infamous Anrea Sarano had produed a image of the Prophet muammed in urin and called it PISS MUAMMED just how quickly this jerk would have a fatwa placed on his head

If I was you I would file a complaint with the ombudsmAn and cc it all to Bairds office.

CBC, Mulcair and Trudeau playing politics with our soldiers' lives:

http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/stephen-harper-did-not-tell-truth-on-isis-combat-mission-opposition-1.2919630

"He (Mulcair) pointed to an exchange in the House of Commons last fall, where Prime Minister Stephen Harper repeatedly made that pledge. Canadian soldiers are not accompanying the Iraqi forces into combat," the prime minister said on Sept. 30.

When asked by Mulcair directly whether the troops would be "targeting or co-ordinating attacks by others in a combat role," Harper responded that he had "neither the will nor the desire to get into detailed discussions of military operations here. The exchange took place at a time when the special forces were just beginning their deployment and before coalition commanders were having problems identifying targets on the ground. Mulcair says the lack of transparency on the part of the government is shocking. "The prime minister has not been honest with Canadians on this issue," Mulcair said. "He has to come clean and he has to do it quickly. Every time he was asked, he said, 'No, they would not be involved in combat.' And every time they were involved in combat, we asked and they said, 'No, it is not a combat mission.'

I guess he was out of the House on this day - the friggin idiot:

Canada sends 69 special forces to Iraq to advise in fight against ISIS (note the date 16 Sep 14):

http://globalnews.ca/news/1566794/canada-sends-69-special-forces-to-iraq-to-advise-in-fight-against-isis/

Normally I just put up with the BS from our mediocracy, but this is ridiculous. I guess if Canadian troops came under fire in Canada (oh right, they did) that would be an unauthorized combat mission.

"Liars’ Remorse

Democrats have second thoughts about Obamacare"

"In the Time magazine issue published after the 2008 election—whose cover depicted Barack Obama as Franklin Roosevelt—Peter Beinart anticipated a new “era of liberal hegemony” that would last until “Sasha and Malia have kids.”"

"President Obama is not yet a grandfather, but his era of liberal hegemony only appears to have lasted months, not decades."

"Arrows"

"The Gates of Hell shall not prevail, but perhaps it will be a close-run thing. This unpleasant thought occurred, hardly for the first time, in reading the latest rumours and “analyses” (it is getting harder to tell them apart) from the Vatican watchers. My worst fear, or rather, my worst fear that could be expressed in crisp broad strokes of black on white, is that the current Pope might, in his characteristically spontaneous way, suddenly convoke another ecumenical council and, “in the spirit of Vatican II,” announce a “Vatican III.” Under present circumstances, I cannot think of a bigger catastrophe: one so likely to provoke open civil war of the kind we previewed last October. Imagine the effect of a sprawling, hugely publicized convention at which national and regional factions within the Church tear each other apart, in response to the manipulations of a highly politicized, consciously organized, and papally blessed group of “modernizers.”

My unstated fear began with a reading of Evangelii Gaudium — the apostolic exhortation published in November 2013, which was lauded in liberal media as the Pope’s “wake-up call,” and can be read as a personal agenda for the Church."
