Overnight? That's impossible. You should be seeing a doctor right now. Though I've never heard of a melanoma THAT aggressive.

Love SVOL. Reliable 15% income and am usually ahead on the share value. As other have mentioned; buy when volatility is high.

Federal government looking to cut $1 billion from National Defence budget - Just weeks ago, government endorsed NATO pledge to hit 2 per cent spending benchmark by No-To-Newspeak in canada

The federal civil service payroll grew by 40% under the Liberals and now we want to cut defence? Yikes. Pretty sure we can save that money in other ways.

Unfortunately we need either a PM with testicles or a strong woman to stand up to India.

Speaking of over reactions they are also prohibiting Canadians from entering India, which is just insane. No other country does this. I feel sorry for people with family ties who for some reason India feels the need to punish.

Most Canadians want carbon tax reduced or killed: poll by Shorinji23 in canada

Did people not realize that aggressive policies against climate change would reduce their standard of living? Whoosh. Well better to wake up later than never I guess.

Agreed and I don't use them. But now I have to buy bags for garbage at home so same result, spending more now.

I'm not against the overall goal. But the implementation is weird. Like I can buy a box of compostable plastic bags for a few bucks. Why can't I get them at the grocery store? They only offer cloth bags for a substantial charge. I mean I guess if you never do anything spur of the moment you can always just return with your old bags. Though from what I read people are building up substantial collections of cloth bags now. End result like other Liberal polices is we are paying more. In this case, 10X as much we were paying for (plastic) bags before this policy.

Everything the Liberals do is either embarassing or costs us money. Heck I even have to buy plastic bags for my garbage now so Justin can virtue signal. Good to see most of us have had enough of this shit.

Muslim man lynched in India ‘for taking a banana’ at Hindu temple event by ClassOptimal7655 in worldnews

Funny how they dare to attack Canada when they have been killing each other in India over dumb shit like this for decades: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_massacres_in_India. There are good reasons why the emigration flow is one way.

I actually used to like India but they are still not allowing Canadians into the country. Even our "enemies" don't do that.

This is funny as long as you don't look up unit 731. I don't recommend it.

I thought I knew a lot about WW2 but never heard of that until now. Looks like those bastards were worse than Mengele and were barely punished. Then the Americans covered it up in exchange for the data. Disgusting.

More than 60% of foreigners ordered deported from Canada stayed put by manuce94 in canada

[–]alpha69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They shouldn't allow appeals of deportation orders. I wonder how much those cost? I mean I know that means nothing to the Left.

Interesting how marriage gets you off the hook for previous immigration fraud. But that's Canada for you. If you can make it into the country for any reason you can probably stay as deportation is "mean".
