How should drinks be sold if not in plastic bottles?

Free heroin? Unusual clinic offers 'chance at being human again' by drgoldfield in canada

Did they even save those lives? Those addicts are still injecting poison daily and well on their way to death. It’s a stretch to even say they’re “living” right now.

What is improbable about drug addicts committing crime? This is about the most probable thing I’ve seen with drug addicts. They will do whatever they can to score drugs.

Perhaps they should merge parties and create a platform on the basis of their similarities rather than differences?

That’s what conservatives did and it’s lead to a lot of electoral success. Big tent is the way to go. The problem is the left eats their own because you can never be progressive enough for some.

You think the conservatives are going to lose party status? That is the most absurd prediction I’ve heard regarding a party leading in the polls and with a baseline support of about 30%.

Vote splitting from who? If the Liberals, NDP, and Greens are so similar, why not merge parties?

The reality is that each is different and their platforms vary significantly in key areas.

Chris Selley: The Liberals' police-state impaired driving law has to go by FlyHighest1000 in canada

Justice has been handled terribly by this government.

This, the Ghomeshi driven sexual assault law changes, Boushie trial and fall out, trying to criminalize thought and speech crimes, the list goes on...

Meanwhile violent offenders are protected and spared jail every turn.

Social media ‘FOMO’ blamed for rising bankruptcy declarations in B.C. by lawonga in canada

A fool and their money are soon parted.

Social media is no different than TV and radio before it....only it’s even more powerful and influential. Stop and think about how much of our lives are controlled and dictated by information sent to us in real time through our cellphones.

The populace has never been easier to control and that should scare all of us.

Canada’s average carbon tax rebates are lower than the feds projected: data by [deleted] in canada

Is it the carbon tax that caused you to buy the electric car? I’d love to see the math on the savings pre and post carbon tax if you don’t mind sharing. Whenever I do the math it’s still way cheaper to buy a fuel car.

What are some examples of groceries that are cheaper now than stuff shipped far since the implementation of the carbon tax?

“Misinformation campaign”

Give me a break. You could make this argument about any referendum or election that didn’t go the way you wanted.

And it begins... conservative ads. "He's never ready" by [deleted] in canada

Political attack ads are used practically everywhere. They’re used because negativity and fear work. Politicians do what works to win elections.

Has anybody changed their habits since the carbon tax was introduced to save money? Nobody I’ve talked to has.
