We miss ronny today, he was a mentally infirm fellow, but he wasn't a convicted felon or adjudicated rapist.

I think it goes back a bit farther though.

Fortunately we can close the US border if they have too many infected travellers hitting Canada.

Once they petri dish themselves down a few hundred million people, there will be a lot less stupidity to contend with, I'm sure. I'm willing to wait and see. Best of luck to Alberta eh.

I'd say "It was nice knowing you america" but the century economic and political interference, with an invasion before that, would be too much bullshit to skip over. I'll say "So long" and keep it honest.

In 2015, Turkey shot down a Russian Su-24 that violated Turkish airspace over its border with Syria. The incident caused immense tension between NATO and Russia, but Ankara sent a clear message: β€œViolate our airspace, ignore our warnings, and there will be consequences.”

Russia is a shell of 2015.

Are you north or south of the 49th?

South of the 49th, that's crazy talk.
It's also crazy talk in Alberta Canada, aka, little Texas.

Just because america and it's Arabian enclave have no morals, doesn't mean the rest of the world doesn't.

Considering how america is not an ICC ratified nation, has committed war crimes for decades upon decades, never convicts a corporate entity over anything and let the most prolific sex trafficker in your history off.....

When did the banana republic really start?

When has america ever been know for intellect or wisdom?

The Boston tea 2 party political system?
Hanging civil rights activists in the 60's?
'WMDs' in Iraq for Israel?
Getting retaliated against by the Taliban after screwing them?

That's not a joke btw, but it may be an inadvertent punchline.

Screwing with Alaska is safe, according to trump it's Russian territory.

Stray into Canadian air space and they need to be shot down. We can add it to urging them to return stolen Ukrainian children.

The good news is america doesn't have a 33 nation coalition, so any military action will either be a war of 1812 or a Vietnam again. I guess with the navy, it likely ends up a USS Liberty situation. I do have 7 on my US military follies card, that are still open. Month's not over yet.

Are you thinking of the 'before' time?

Before tariffs for Putin in 2018?
Before maniacally arming a genocide from 1967 to today?
Before 8 decades of trade actions & political interference to your neighbours?

Before america re elected a convicted felon, & know pedophile, to keep him out of prison?

It's an entire media sphere with no integrity. Look at Colbert and Kimmel's treatment by 'left wing' corporations.

Then there's all the free legal work from law firms with no backbone. Couple that to a supreme court with billionaire benefactors, and corporations have sold the population out.

It's funny that less than 40000 oil and related fields jobs paralyzes the mentality of 5 million people, especially with the volatility of he industries markets. But that's always been big bad 'berta.

Then if you want me to be able to read them, get unified on a government breaking general strike. That's the only pressure that matters at this point. You may want to act fast before trump beats you to the punch with a government shutdown and he can take additional authority, to keep you in line.

Ah yes, I saw this on the late show. It's time for the #EscalatorInvestigator!

It was a real flake out.

He may not know much about the oil and gas industry, just like he doesn't really know about parliamentary and electoral ethics.

Southeast Asia is electrifying as fast as they can. The hydroelectric/renewable model cuts carbon and dependency on fossil fuels.
Life is always better when you're not addicted to dirty energy.

Knowledge is power, if something worries you, find out all you can and it likely won't seem as bad. Alliances may look scary but look at being allied to america. We answered article 5 for them, and them alone, then got told we were on our own unless we 'pay'.
& NATO is considered a stable alliance.

When you teach hate, you have to be careful to not let the hate you've empowered, down.

Or you could get Charlied too.
