But yeah... Canada would be more than welcome to join the US. Just so we can be bigger than Russia.

So more than likely, Canada will have a Federal election this upcoming spring. Unless the Liberals sit on there hands through three consecutive confidence votes...
Doing so however, would annihilate Dion's government. He has sat on his hands through previous confidence votes because he is to afraid to take a chance at an election. But abstaining through 3 consecutive confidence votes? If Canadians are not in an election come spring, than Dion is no leader, and a new leader must be found for the Liberal Party. By not replacing Dion in such a situation, would delegate the Liberal party to join the ranks of the NDP. Nothing but an annoyance, with no real hope of forming a federal government. |

To a radical Muslim, apostates are actually WORSE than infidels, and get NO mercy, no chance to 'correct' themselves. That's how they justify what they do to their own.

The liberals walked out of the house of Commons to protest the Crime Bill...
This is just sick.. Apparantly the Liberals think that adults can have sex with 14 year olds. And that repeat offenders should not be labelled dangerous criminals... I am at a loss of words over this.. Liberals walk out of confidence vote on crime bill |

Oh ****, how do I sign up to vote as an Expat?!?!?
I don't really like the Conservatives but I'll not vote for anyone who undermines the mission or think it's okay to nail 14 year olds. One question; would it mean that someone who is 16 with a 15 year old gf/bf and the have sex the older would be a rapist? "We do have Charter rights and one of them is to be silent, but you can't be silent if you have to, in fact, prove reverse onus," said Carstairs. That is in the article, the bill needs to be ammended. I have the right to remain silent......... While I support locking up dangerous people and pedo's I can't agree with the bill as is. Carstairs said she also wants to hear from social workers about what effect raising the sexual age of consent from 16 to 14 would have on young people living on the streets. She said she is concerned that young prostitutes may be driven underground if the age of consent is raised and that would leave them more vulnerable to exploitation. It could also keep them away from social workers who could help them escape their plight. Growing up in a rough area has given me a bit of insight there and I have to agree with that statement. I don't really know what to think on this portion of the proposed bill after reading over it. Last edited by Expat Canuck : 02-12-2008 at 23:33 PM. |

The bleeding hearts are at it as usual. Canada has one of the lowest age of consents in the developed world.
I remember a few years back, of a 30 something man who was nabbed at Macdonald-Cartier International Airport in Ottawa by Canadian police. The man had been speaking to police pretending to be a 14 year old girl on the internet. The two arranged to have a "meeting" in Ottawa. You see, in America the age of consent is 16... so sickos like this look to Canada to have sex with children...****ing sick And the left of course finds every other excuse not to raise the age of consent... what if it was there daughter who was molested? I bet that they would change there tune very quickly...than again, it is the left we are talking about.... |

Age of consent being raised is a good thing as long as does not effect or send kids to jail or give them a record for a 16 and 15 year old couple as an example.
Sending gun crooks to jail is a good thing. Taking away your right to remain silent is a bad thing. The bill needs to be ammended. As it is now I would not approve it. |

Oh please, the Liberals will never sit in government as long as Dion is in charge, he's a bumbling fool with no morals, no heart and even less charm than Harper.
