Quote from: DKG on Today at 09:57:41 AMRemember Art Hanger and the Reform Party? Art was vilified and ridiculed for calling for the end of all race-based policies. That included repealing the Indian Act and phasing out the reserve system. Reserve land would be sold to Indians in fee simple, and reserves would be merged into existing municipalities or become standalone municipalities.

But the parts of their Indian policies that were most objectionable to the Indian leaders were their proposal that Indians should be equal to other Canadians in every way. That is, there would no longer be a separate legal status for Indians. They would not be "Musqueams", "Cree" or any of the other hundreds of other tribes that once hunted in what is now Canada — they would be regular Canadians, but with indigenous identities.

None of Hanger's proposals suggested that Indian Canadians should be required to give up any part of their indigenous culture or identities. Like other Canadians, they could continue to celebrate their ethnicities in any way they liked.

But despite that, Hanger and his fellow Reform Party members were ridiculed and called "dinosaurs" for daring to suggest that Canada's Indian apartheid system was a racist and antiquated scheme that acted as a severe drag on the national economy.

But the Reform proposals were actually remarkably similar to Pierre Trudeau's infamous "White Paper" in 1969, in which Trudeau proposed essentially the same thing. Indians would be Canadians — "no more and no less." Like all other Canadians, they would have individual rights, but no special collective (tribal) rights. Like Reform's proposal, Trudeau's "White Paper" was also shouted down by Indian chiefs who were determined to hang on to their special entitlements.

Them fukin injuns either need to be citizens or they need to be genocided.

It was Christmas and the judge was in a merry mood as he asked the prisoner, "What are you charged with?"

"Doing my Christmas shopping early", replied the defendant.

"That's no offense", said the judge. "How early were you doing this shopping?"

"Before the store opened."

Both comedy of errors.
Do you mean the failure to handle the situation in the second video was handled poorly MrNiceGuy?

A California-based company recalled 18 specialty drinks that were distributed in 25 states because of the risk of Salmonella contamination, according to a news release issued by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

SKS Copack issued the recall after it "received notification from its supplier regarding a voluntary recall initiated" by California Dairies for a lot of non-fat dry milk powder because it was potentially contaminated with Salmonella, a bacterium that can cause potentially severe illness in some people, according to the news release issued last week. Salmonella was discovered by California Dairies after routine testing, it stated.

"The remaining recalled ingredient lot was quarantined [by SKS Copack]," the company said.

Quote from: Blazor on May 24, 2026, 10:23:04 PMI've never trusted Trump entirely, but I'll agree that the way they went after him in his first round, made it look like he was indeed different. This time its totally different. Is he still doing some good... yes, but he is also doing bad, and I still don't trust him.

This nation was never founded on being a democracy, it is a Republic! Everywhere there is "democracy", is a city in ruins. What we have today is a lot of sellouts, its no wonder its not working! I use to think the same, a change to fit, like everyone voting online and having opinions and such online, and doing away with Congress and such, but that wont work now, as we have so much corruption in that area, between bots, AI, and changing of votes and such with a switch. I don't trust it.
You are all over the place on this one.

Trump is doing what he campaigned on. Mass deportations, securing the border, ending DEI, fighting fraud, lowering taxes for workers, and yes Manifest Destiny for the Americas.
