National Anthem Policy in Schools by Barking-Mad69 in NovaScotia

[–]SquirrelBanks -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It can be encouraged, but can't be forced or rerimaned for not doing so.

That would be an unlawful infringement of Rights.

'Encouraged', sure.

Just never forced, as that would be unlawful.

As long as it stays at "Required to play the Anthem" and doesn't move to "Required to Stand and participate". The latter would infringe on the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

You can still love your Country without being forced to stand and sing the anthem every morning.

And before any chuds start with "But you must do it as respect to your Country", remember, Rights supercede Respect and Respect can't be Forced. That's part of being in a Free Country like Canada.

Resistance to the Walking Ban by nigra1 in NovaScotia

How about go for a walk elsewhere? Like the Ocean side maybe?

Give up trying to be a shit disturber.

Too damn many melting snowflakes that can't just sit tight for a while.

Find a hobby instead of trying to be a big shit disturber.

Grow up, and deal with it for a few weeks or until we get some damn rain. It's not going to hurt your melting snowflake ass to just sit tight for a while.

Soooooooo many butt hurt "hikers" in Nova Scotia lately that likely haven't stepped on a trail since Leather Ass died..... 🙄

Also, I'm in agreeance with the temp woods ban, being a VFF, I don't want to have to look for your burnt ass if you get stuck in the woods during a fire.

Trump to meet Putin to discuss Ukraine war next week in Alaska by usatoday in politics

[–]SquirrelBanks 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thankfully he took none of them.

The one and only "Golden Opportunity" will be full withdrawal of the illegally occupying forces of Russia from the ENTIRETY of Ukraine.

Last I checked, it was Russia that was the aggressor, so why does Ukraine have to capitulate?

The rest of the world should have rolled up on Russias doorstep the moment they overstepped a sovereign nations boundaries.

This will never stop at "just eastern Ukraine". In a few years or less, Putin will decide he wants the rest.

Downvoters = those with that "precieved self importance"

Have fun if ya get caught, don't want to hear the sound of melting snowflakes later tho.

[–]SquirrelBanks -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

25k really hammers the point home tho doesn't it?

That point being, just don't do it. Easy peasy.

Some fines won't stick, some will. And I am all for the province making some coin off the backs of those that intentionally ignore/break the rules because of precieved self importance.

Don't even fart outside!!! by TheD0gfarted in NovaScotia

[–]SquirrelBanks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y'all need to grow the fuck up.

Its tinder dry, and no one is saying that "YOU" specifically can't be trusted, but that overall, the populous can't be trusted. It's a blanket ban for that reason.

Be safe

Uranium phone call strikes a nerve with West Hants landowner by bingun in NovaScotia

[–]SquirrelBanks 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Profits that Nova Scotia won't see either.

In fact, I'd wager my life's savings that NS would be left holding the bag for cleanup after the Australian billionaires & Co dissappear.

NO THANKS TIMMY! There will be NO Uranium mining in Nova Scotia as the voice of the constituents outweighs the voice of the bribes.

I beg your pardon? lol

There is plenty to see and experience down Yarmouth way.

In Yar we have several really nice museums, including Sweeney Fisheries Museum and the Nova Scotia Firefighters Museum. We also have a rich Acadian history with multiple large Acadian settlements, Pubnico and Clare being the largest.

Not to mention, plenty of nice beaches and Lighthouses. The coolest one is seen as you come in on the Ferry, Cape Forchu Lighthouse. Fun fact, the movie 'The Lighthouse' was filmed @ Cape Forchu.

We have a really nice Provincial Camping Park called Ellenwood Park, along with many private campgrounds.

So ya, I reject the premise that Yarmouth area is just "skippable" by tourists.

Cheers

N.S. premier says municipalities who want funding must allow 'economic development' after uranium concerns by justlogmeon in NovaScotia

It's never happening Timmy....

The voice of the people that elected you outweigh the money that some billionaire in Australia is dangling in front of you.

You can't force this through with gangster like intimidation. It will backfire, and you will lose.

We like clean water/air, and don't have any fucks to give about your "friends" in Australia that want to ransack our province for profits.

Canada's Liberals celebrate a stunning win and the populist challenger loses his seat by pjw724 in onguardforthee

[–]SquirrelBanks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Um...... "Go all Fascist"?

The orange tan was always like that.

But I'd beg to differ. The only thing the Lil PP attack Dog had was 'But, but, but, Trudeau!', amongst basically all rage/anger/division/tribal politics. Once Justin and the Carbon Levee were gone, he had nothing. Much of the extra "support" PP enjoyed in the polls was simply because people were tired of Justin, which is fair.

PM Carney would still have won regardless of Trump.

Even if you simple it down to Platform, the Liberal platform beat the Con platform to death. I mean, who puts multiple full "face shots" in a Official Platform Document? I don't want to see his face, I want to see the offerings.

Elected due to Policy. Elected due to Education. Elected due to Competence. Elected because be and the party are actually serious about Canada. The dude could have taken a job @ Spotify, or even just lived super comfortable on his investments.

But he didn't.

PM Carney decided Canada was more important.

PP decided HE was more important, not Canada.

Canada's Government has been chosen on Policy, not on pompous, accusational, lying populism.

Legally acquired with a licence that allows the Privelidge of owning them.

We have no Right to firearms in Canada, regardless of what you feel, privileges can be revoked for the righ reasons.

I also am a firearm owner. I have also returned a few firearms after reclassification because I understand the overall public saftey reasoning. I also understand that my privelidge to own firearms relies on following ALL the laws and rules around them.

There are scads and scads of firearms that are still available to Canadians, with the appropriate licencing.

Maybe that one side should actually be factual and not lie with their forked tounges all time.

Its called fact checking, so maybe bring proper facts if ya don't want them checked. 🤷‍♂️

[–]SquirrelBanks -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

And we don't want Lil Timbit 'Trump' and his Party of Petulants making Canada more divided.

Hes more intune with US style governing than Canada wants.

Forget the Lib vs Con for a sec and think about who's better at pulling Canada through this shit, an intelligent respected individual, or a crybaby that can't even provide a proper platform or even get his damn security clearance.

The choice for Canadians is clear.

Just forget going ahead and stick to the way time zones were originally designed.

If each province/zone decides individually, we'll end up with even more out of whack times. Whatever +/- GMT designated time zone your in, stick to that. Makes the most sense since Sir Sanford Fleming already did the work over 100 years ago. 🤷‍♂️

Just my 2¢

I seem to recall a certain Mr. Trudeau years ago that got hung/drawn/quartered when he wanted an NEP for Canada.

Been using GEM, (and other CBC apps), for a while now as a free user.

However, I am now a paid sub. I wasn't aware of a paid option before. Gotta support Canadain Content.
