  1. Impressive movement on the national polls over the last 2 days, isn’t it? I make it an 8 point swing by that site.
    You’d think that pollsters might be changing how they ask questions, or who they’re asking, for some reason….

  2. I floated away with all the tears I shed at their plight.
    The thought that they might be expected to go out into the world and actually earn their keep and their rewards, the idea that they might fall on their faces once in a while (and deservedly so), the possibility that few people might actually bow down and worship them was so….so…..shattering!
    O, the humanity!

  3. I have been searching for a charity where I can support a gender neutral little boy or girl boy girl goy birl. My search is over.

  4. O… M … G … did you view her website KarenaVirginia.com ? She is a complete LOON. Starting with her fake nom de plume … she is a real snake oil saleswoman of “Indian” mysticism crossed with Scientology. She will “cure” every woman of excess water weight, binge eating and feeling sad.
    Someone better tell her what happens when all the bad Karma and negative energy she is creating with her false charges returns to her shakras …

  5. Wonder if Maryam Monsef, Minister of Democratic Reform got a memo from the Trudeau cabal to stop the attempt to change how we vote in this country? They cannot do it,case closed so we will likely not hear another word from them as they shuck that idea.
    A bigger issue is the Minister herself…this we need to keep drumming on. Who the hell is she really?
    Where was she born? Iran? Afghanistan?
    Why did she visit Iran in 2014 really? How was it even safe to visit that place as a Canadian citizen?
    Why did she allegedly want to move back to Afghanistan for work?
    Why are the Liberals silent on this? Why is our Opposition not demanding the answers? This is serious stuff.

  6. Liz J
    It is serious stuff. How did she get a visa? does she have an Iranian passport? Why did she decide to go into politics while in Iran, coerced by the regime to be a spy?
    Shine the light bright, she needs to be investigated.

    “The Philippines Just Blew Up Obama’s Asia Pivot”
    “Does anyone remember President Barack Obama’s pivot to Asia? The plan was to focus diplomatic and military assets in East Asia to contain a rising China. It was one of the reasons Obama said he was shrinking the American footprint in the Middle East.
    Well, the pivot is failing.”

  8. She needs to step aside as an MP until a full investigation is done. We may have to start a petition, Liberals are not going to move on this. We need to go after our MP’s and demand this be dealt with.

  9. AGW RIP.

    “Racegoers are set to face the coldest Cox Plate in the race’s 94-year history as rain and thunder arrive at Moonee Valley this afternoon.”

  10. In Saskatchewan there were no days in August above 30 degree c .I cannot remember a colder October. Today may hit 8 degree. The warmest since the beginning of the month. The rest where I am at has been highs of maybe 3 degree. So , is this more signs of the warmest years ever and global warming or has that new carbor tax fixed it already. Sunny ways ?

  11. I have been very put by the media claiming nearly a month ahead of the election that Hillary has won. There was another article in the National Post today making this assumption. Good to see some push back. I think Trump’s numbers are higher than is bring reported.

  12. I agree, I too think Trumps numbers are higher as well. It’s worrying them, otherwise why would they be scraping the depths for anything they can find on him? I’d be more concerned if Clinton(s) win at this point.

  13. The fact is that if a group of 7 or more surveys are within two points, they’re an accurate group of surveys. When you see 10% discrepancies, they’re trash, or at least some of them.
    I worked on a survey once for a major Saskatchewan Ford dealership. The question was, ”If you were purchasing a new pickup tomorrow, would you buy a Ford, Chevrolet, GMC, Dodge, etc.” We had a list of numbers to call; the amount of phone numbers we received were listed in proportion of the population of the communities. For example a community with 2700 people would have had 20 numbers to call where a city of 25,000 would have had 200. Rural areas were calculated the same way.
    At the end of the day however, I could have written down any answer I wanted. Given the reasons we were conducting the survey for, it would not have been to our advantage to do so. Had it been a political survey however, it could have easily been fudged. Today, we’d use an online survey where the customer could see the results of the survey, and the location where the answers derived from. But I’m sure there are ways around that too!

  14. These days many surveys you are asked to participate in have an agenda and sometimes a contradictory agenda. The other day I was doing a survey about agricultural herbicide choices.
    Questions: Which herbicide company do you like the least? Why? Which herbicide company do you like the most? Why?
    You cannot leave the question blank otherwise the survey is incomplete and you won’t be entitled to a small honorarium.
    The purchase of herbicides for your crops have nothing to do with a particular like or dislike you may have for the maker of the herbicides. This kind of nonsense happens more and more.
    Did it ever occur to the developers of these surveys that the success or failure of any product rests on the efficacy of said product as opposed to the likability of the manufacturer.
