Is it really racism when they identify age, ethnic background, sex to describe criminals, or they should just say it was two people for the sake of the PC movement.

This article paints a rosy picture of the Edmonton housing market - we just sold a very nice skinny in a very central, and what was considered to be a "hot," neighborhood, for way under asking. We bought the house two years ago and are losing a significant amount of money on it. It was not believed to be unreasonably priced. The central market is currently flooded with skinnies. As the developer mentioned, most people here want 2000+ sq.ft. and our house was considered too small (it is just under 2K), too skinny, etc. etc. by probably 40+ potential buyers. So I'm really unclear how much of a market there is for these uniquely designed homes that do not maximize floor space through the box design, but still cost as much. Particularly in these neighborhoods which are actually not very central at all.

Your reflection matches our own PM. He spends more time on "charm tours on which he spends our money", than he does dealing with Canadians problems.

R Trolls criticize important programs for the disadvantaged like Head Start. Spanish people love their children and families and benefit from these programs --- You clearly aren't Spanish, nor are you American, Comrade Estas. It is only recently that language is taught before high school & not Spanish - another mistake in American. I've always criticized American education because of this. They do teach ESL though. You make many many mistakes in American yet understand Russian. You have your profiles and playbook right there in front of you, inhabit these threads all day, search for articles and clearly study american culture and language. Paul Reed has made great strides there. You made mistakes about 9/11 (called it 911 and W Bush GWB - no one called him GWB when he was President) You even invoked the Challenger tragedy because you are told that Americans come together in time of tragedy and you are trying so so hard to not sound like the R Troll you are.

Stop lying. Trump made no "admissions".

I confess I wasn't too impressed. Back to the CTV for me!!

Sounds like you are jealous of his CPA.

Sounds like you have a cushy government pension.

Indeed I do when I'm dealing with non-GED cretins who aren't able to discern relevant details from those who are not. You probably think that a person eaten by a 16' shark wasn't really eaten by a 16' shark because it was incorrectly reported that the shark was 17'.

Guilty until proven innocent again.

Men may begin to hire more men, or take out harassment insurance to protect against what are unpredictable lawsuits. Do not.. compliment a woman on her clothes, looks, work performance, her car, her intelligence or most anything else. She might sue you and put you and your business out of business. Sure are a lot of "metoos" out there, aren't there? Some undoubtedly having meritorious claims, some quite possibly not.

So pass it. MAGA.

Why are so many people set on the notion of sanitizing our language? I propose that such people be labeled "Beige"... because that's how bland they are. Furthermore, it will allow them to claim the coveted "People of Color" label! And further... when did "blue collar" become "non-white-collar"? Should they be called "Collars of Color"?

Wow, some of our team instructors (what they call them in USAF basic training) had issues, but this guy made them look like the most normal people I met.

Blame the educated people who came up with this plan in order to fill their pockets.

Weapons are being smuggled overland through Oman. One of the main smuggling routes is through Shehen, a sort of no-man’s land and entry point in Mahra province along the Yemen-Oman border. Although formally under government control, the region is a well known haven for smuggling and central authority is minimal. Furthermore, hundreds of ships sail daily through the waterways which pass along the coasts of Yemen and Iran. Many are small dhows, which are hard to track. To avoid detection, Iranian vessels switch off their identification transponders, sometimes for days. They rendezvous with other ships or drop supplies close to buoys so cargo can be recovered by passing ships. Others use the many coves and deserted bays in neighbouring Iraq. Some even use Somalia as a transfer point. The Saudis are simply aiming to resurrect sectarian strife in Lebanon to disrupt Iran's main proxy. The pressure will be economic not military. Can Iran also financially support Lebanon? It may have to.

Indeed, you long for the days of the telegraph, a time, coincidentally, when blacks knew their place, right?

I don't know what you're talking about--where did I say anything about US/Canadian attitudes? On the issue I addressed: Do you think US business and leaders of exporting states will be happy to have missed out on this deal? I can't imagine that they are. That's about it.

Apparently, Conservatives like to repeat failed jokes just as often as they like to promote failed economic experiments like tax breaks for the rich. Neither their jokes nor their economics work, but that doesn't stop them.

There is a difference between bad cops and good ones. For most it is a matter of effective training in managing one's anger in the face of provocation.

Do you no one?

Michael, we live in a diverse society. One can just as easily say "stop dividing us by withholding the rights of others that are guaranteed under our Constitution." It is divisive to ask that our concerns be heard when we are not willing to listen to the concerns of others or another side. Isn't it divisive to say that "when things go my way, then I will be willing to not make any divisive remarks", which is what you seem to be saying. If you're concerned about who will use the bathroom your daughter uses, please google a transman named Buck Angle and get back to me and tell me if you would rather have or Caitlyn Jenner use the same bathroom that your daughter is using. Peace, John David

Are you some kind of stalker ? The UN comments were many months ago, you might want to get a life.

Congrats on being a criminal-cop enabler. You're delusional in thinking that you are any better than his mom. And what does his mom have to do with it? Nothing. You're a simpleton.

Fine. You're still trying to argue an equivalency, that isn't equivalent, as I just proved.

I LOVE this pope! And bravo to Cardinal Perolin and Bishop McElroy! And how about that Pres. Eisenhower! In 1953, no less. Our current politicians may not have any backbone, but thank God we have a Catholic leader whom we can look to for moral guidance. And that some of the other church hierarchy are following his lead.

Sorry I missed you earlier TRENTSTEELE, but did you know there are 3 Americans buried by the communists in the Kremlin Necropolis? All 3 left wingers! John Reed a journalist and Charles Ruthenberg, a left wing socialist, kind of like ole Bernie Sanders today! These 2 are deeply revered by many on the left today who study history. The last one was left winger too, one who was a spy and fled America when caught while out on bail, Bill Haywood. Seems the left has a much greater history with the Russians, especially in betraying America, than the right wingers. They were more apt to be what the communists have enjoyed using the most through the decades. See, I lean more to the right personally speaking, not exactly socialist or communist material. But looking at the left today, especially in the colleges and mainstream media, who knows, maybe another left wing journalist, socialist, or left wing spy can be buried there in the Kremlin Necropolis with honors! Have a great day! LOL!~ :)

Timing is everything. After all, we have elections coming up.

Around here, most of the pedestrian deaths I read about are completely the fault of a driver not paying attention, speeding, turning left or right without looking, failing to stop at an intersection, etc. And yet, unless they run away (hit and run) there are rarely any consequences, it's just another accident.

During the 2016 campaign, a number of women accused Trump of all manner of things. He threatened to sue, and not one more came forward, and the ones making the accusations fell silent. The accusations these women make are often proven paid for political shenanigans and false. They do a great disservice to women who actually have been victims, as we take it all with a grain of salt any more.

Secrecy is an internal component of the TPP. Example? The system of secretive tribunals that allow foreign corporations to sue governments if they believe a country's laws unfairly diminish their profits. Called the Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) model, the tribunal system has raised red flags from economists including Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz as well as the Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank. But Justin will proceed just the same. He won't offend his "cash for access" friends.

As I said, your nastiness undercuts whatever value anything you might ever say could possibly have. You are a bully, plain and simple. The Franciscan should count their blessings.

Thanks. I had forgotten that he about the parish in Platteville, WI. It's so sad that said bishop won't let a reporter in at a talk he's giving at a public university

Trump did not order anyone to do anything or ask Congress to pass legislation to interfere with the NFL or any team. Expressing his opinion is merely that.

A fight in a car at 2:30am and alcohol was involved. Who would have guessed?

To many vaccinations are damaging these children's brains.

Dwight Eisenhower was not a "polished politician" when he took office. He did, however, have the requisite understanding of human-interrelationships, and a keen appreciation of history. I am not opposed to an electrician or a carpenter becoming president, if he or she possess other skills as well. In my humble opinion, politicians who seek re-election year after year are more problematic than the citizen-president. The politician wants to be re-elected and is willing to sell his soul to any fat cat with deep pockets.

Okay, the fish has taken the bait. Time to get him hooked...what is her substantiation, a diary, a witness...what?

No I expect the party who perpetuates the war on women narrative to actually care about what seems to be rampant in Hollywood, the main stream media, and what looks like politics. If they had a shred of credibility they would react 100 times louder to the recent news than they did to an old recording of Trump. You seem to be ok with it, that is your right. I believe all abuse needs to be called out.

hahaha, yeah, like 20 years ago. Ever what happens to milk after it's expiration date? LOL

Justin Majority 2019!

Where did I say that I am cool with it? If it happened, it is unacceptable and he should step out of the race. What I am asking is a reasonable question. Just look at what is happening in Hollywood. Some of the claims go back 20-30 years. That begs some question as to if they happened. However more and more accusers are coming forward with more recent accounts. That adds a lot more credibility. Once a sexual harasser or predator, always a harasser and predator. That's why I am questioning the case in Alabama. He doesn't suddenly change and stop doing what they claimed happened. So where are the more recent accusers? I'm waiting for them to step forward. Sorry that logic and common sense stand in the way of the libs jumping for joy over this.

NEVER run from the cops, especially in a vehicle, it really gets their "blood up." These "after-chase" mugshots tell the tale. This Fulford clown is lucky he didn't kill somebody.

Are you really suggesting that pedestrians should not be able to depend on traffic lights, walk lights, and drivers being attentive? I agree that pedestrian should also be paying attention but it should be a given that drivers are as well. Unfortunately too many drivers think that the only thing that matters on the road is them personally, they don't even respect other drivers, never mind "lesser" road users.

Marijuana investors are fools. Government induced oligopoies can only be maintained when there are significant barriers to entry (cable, broadcasting, trains and planes, etc.) not when any Joe Lunchbucket can grow it in his yard.

I do not lie. You dug yourself a hole, and the only way you apparently seem to be able to try to get out if it is by fanning hatred and false accusations. Bully.

The penis (alleged) touching allegedly happened almost 50 years ago, only to "go public" just before an election of the man allegedly charged with such action. Interesting timing.

Now, Silveria has chosen to double down on his message. "Regardless of the circumstances under which those words were written, they were written, and that deserved to be addressed," Silveria said in a statement to the Colorado Springs Gazette. "You can never over-emphasize the need for a culture of dignity and respect — and those who don't understand those concepts aren't welcome here." ____________________________ There are two morals to this story: 1. Make sure of the facts before you spout off. 2. Don't double down on your false-flag sermon.

just like the criminal proceedings the s s kealoha should take about 4 months

Look at the picture. Everyone now looks to Xi as the leader. Trudeau wears the party shirt to show that he is part of the new global leadership with Chinese direction.

Cory does not have a snowball's chance in hell of winning reelection as a US Senator for Colorado. But, he is front and center with Mitch McConnell every time I turn on the news and is heading up the GOP Senatorial Committee ($$$). I'm guessing Cory will run again for his Congressional seat if the Koch Brothers don't already have a nice spot lined up for him as a lobbyist. Or, maybe Reince Preibus' old job as Chair of the RNC.

The schools DO have the legal responsibility to provide that "least restrictive appropriate eduational setting." It may not be the "regular" classroom, but some educational program must be provided. Often, for dysfunctional students, it will include a significant counseling/therapy component combined with the traditional "educational" program. Return to the "regular" classroom will depend on the progress the student makes toward the "anger-management" or other issues which interfere with his/her successful participation in that regular classroom. You are right in suggesting that dysfunctional students should NOT be allowed to repeatedly interrupt the educational opportunities of other students. The schools have a responsibility to the disturbed students.....they also have a responsibility to the other students. Gary crum

Yesterday I heard a young woman who is legally in the US under DACA explain that her life's dream of joining the military was dashed when both the Air Force and Marine Corps denied her enlistment because she is a DACA recipient. So your idea is not so easily achieved. A first step would be for you to support a clean Dream Act for these young people who have grown up, gone to school and are working in the US.

"...In Friday’s statement, Blake emphasized again that he decided to switch sides after seeing civilians massacred by the “American military machine.”..." And the citizens here think we're the beacon of humanity and freedom. We should enact the draft and no longer take volunteers. Show the average citizen who hides behind the flag on the NFL field what we're really doing to people over there.

That's different. Clinton was a serial adulterer before he even held the presidency. Therefore it doesn't count. Then again, who could blame him?

Just read that a woman came forward claiming a WaPo reporter asked her to make a similar (false) allegation in exchange for several thousand dollars. She claims she has the woman recorded during the exchange. I think perhaps not just the Democrats but the Republican elites too. Mitch the Bitch was awfully quick to jump on this.

It sickens me that my tax dollars helped pay the salary of scum like this. Life in prison w/o parole would be nice.

Your memory has let you down. Trudeau was not making a joke anymore than he was making a joke when he tweeted his nauseatingly sycophantic eulogy to the deceased Cuban communist dictator Fidel Castro. Justin was at a fund raiser in late 2013 in Toronto, one that was limited to women only. He was asked which nation's "administration he most admired". He responded "There is a level of admiration I actually have for China because (of) their basic dictatorship". You can google it. And with the frightening prospect of Trudeau eagerly negotiating a free trade deal with the communist government of China, I find this bizarre comment more disturbing than lame and tiresome.

Just so you know, she is not my image of modern liberalism. Or course that could be that I'm a liberal of the 'old' age, not modern. She is my image of a rot that's infected the self-satisfied Democratic party. They forgot about the 50% of voters in lower incomes who have been disenfranchised from politcal participation. I give Trump credit for being clever enough to speak like a populist. In action he's doing everything he can to represent his own class, the top .5 %. Trump has done little of significance to change the working poor's economic insecure future. Trump has however put them at greater risk by loosening environmental and work protection needed MOST by economically stressed neighborhoods. Those in the Pres, wealth class don't have to worry about bad water, polluted air, unsafe working conditions. Tall walls are indeed the perfect symbol of Presidents Trumps perception of American life.

Too many triggered uninformed dolts on the left messaging every day. These unemployables have nothing better to do.

Good point. That brings rise to gays, lesbians, transvestites, and the "X" crowd.

Ken I agree death does bring the strange out of people. It is deeply personal. For the family, friends and love ones left behind it's a painful process, but together we remeber and manage. As for the sideline distractions, I personally agree it's difficult understand and accept. I guess I've chalked it up to a belief that there is some inherent level of understanding and respect. That's what I hope. Thanks for your friendship with Erik, our family and putting your feelings to the written word. Steve Williams

Ah, the small minded, short sighted incompetence coming out. More jobs, more people, more money, faster improvements on other things which are created by more jobs, more people, and more money. Increased housing values, more education people, higher paying jobs, better infrastructure, added flights, more public transit, and on and on. It would all come - both before and after amazon. You mention Denver sucks up half the transportation budget - we’ll guess what - denver metro is over half the population. Amazon coming here would be a great get for the vast majority in the Denver metro area as well as many others across the state. That fact means amazon coming here would be a great get for Colorado as a whole. If you don’t like growth you should probably move to Wyoming, Montana, the Dakotas, somewhere that your small minded, short sighted, afraid of change life won’t be impacted too much. That and you should stop posting stupidity because it’s a waste of time.

Weiner was drummed out; Moore is still running with the GOP coming up with all sorts of lame excuses for supporting a pedophile. I particularly like the one comparing Joseph and Mary -- that Mary was a teenager when she gave birth to Jesus. Guess they left out the part of the virgin birth. Party of Christians - HA.

I'm guessing that is helping to explain the hazey smog I am seeing in the west on sunny evenings now.

Don't worry folks, Gomer Kenney won't shut them down.

When Canada AM on CTV turned itself years ago from an intelligent news program into a coffee table soft news program it was a loss. If The National goes the same way it will be a tragedy for millions of Canadians who crave the real thing rather than fluff journalism. There is very little left.

Really? So if Ann Coulter accused Hillary Clinton of fondling her when they were alone in an elevator ten years ago, you would believe her? You are just going to believe any accusation that is made? You seem really unaware of the basis of our legal system if so. You don't think that the big bad political machine could be at work here? Corruption in politics? Oh wait, you are the one who plugged his ears and ignored the rigging by the DNC for Hillary and the callouts by Donna Brazile. Oh yeah, those don't exist.

I'll try this again, since my original comment appears to have been killed by the trigger-happy thought police. What a world we live in! My original point stands, which was that newspapers are losing readers because they've stopped sticking up for freedom of speech in favor of preaching political correctness. They've become just like another arm of government. The latest example of this was the Globe's ban on the interesting word "fey" simply because some individual or group didn't like it. I suggested that people really should stop taking offence, especially when none was intended. I pointed out that I'm an "old" man, but might bristle if a Globe writer described me as such. Should that, though, be cause to ban all Globe scribblers from using the word "old" when writing about old people? Of course not. The further we go down this PC road, of course, the less relevant newspapers will become. And the more readers they will lose. I may soon be one of them.

Clearly your daughter needs a lot of help at school given her genetics....but feel free to ignore and try to distract from the false claims you made about wonderful charter schools - does your daughter try to change the subject all the time when she's proven wrong, too? Congratulations on sending your kid to a school that was even worse than Denver public schools; it was a good joke you played on her.

Judge Seabright gave the Kealohas an early Christmas present. The Judge must be friends because he was the police chief and Katherine a deputy prosecutors. Law and Order. Its who you know and not what you know that counts.

Congrats on being a criminal-cop enabler. You're delusional in thinking that you are any better than his mom. And what does his mom have to do with it? Nothing. You're a simpleton.

Now you are not even making sense Gammie.

Yeah, that's what I focused on, "dragon". Trump loves Bannon, and Flynn, and Manafort. . . . all guys who basically hate America for what it is. They said so. Trump himself ran a Presidential campaign built on hate of American institutions (specifically mentioned in the Constitution, by the way), hate of the then American President, hate of the way the American military was being run and acting, etc., etc., etc. And, Trump keeps his base's attention by continuoys spewing of hate for other Americans (Note: character limit. Cannot list all). Yet, he expresses love, admiration and understanding for the President of China? And Putin, whatever he is to Russia. ?????????????? Sounds like hate of America and love of Russian and Chinese leadership to me. Yeah, I bet Trump loves Blake. Blake fits into Trump's rhetoric and narrative nicely (That Korean bombing that put Blake over the edge was ordered by a past US President, wasn't it? And therefore . . . .

No, but I’ll not miss he and Sophie rubbing noses and staring into each other’s eyes as they did two years ago on this solemn occasion.

Actually, you can do something about emitting carbon dioxide that will prevent your ever having to pay taxes again!! Simply stop breathing!!

In another article, Trudeau is seen meeting with Aung San Suu Kyi to express his concern about the refugee situation. Very serious human rights issue...which is all well and good...until you look at his socks. https://beta.theglobeandmail.com/news/world/trudeau-meets-with-aung-san-suu-kyi-conveys-concern-over-rohingya-refugee-crisis/article36902624/?ref=http://www.theglobeandmail.com& Really?

Better start registering some in the win column Liberals. PS the failure of Nafta and Tpp are not wins.

Thank you Ms. Smith and Ms. Seder for your comments. They are right on point. Many of the other commenters here might have a different point of view if they met these wonderful people whose families are being torn apart by unjust and byzantine immigration policies that are being made even worse by the destructive enforcement policies of this administration. We are all immigrants or the children and grandchildren of immigrants.

Liberals deal from a position of strength by not telling us. JT calls that an attribute of the Chinese government. Proof? "They can turn their economy around on a dime."

Can't wait to see what the look will be at the next state funeral...

Yeah, right Will, we can all take that to the bank.

Another uniformed criminal with too much power. You'd think something would be done about limiting this power before more criminals like this abuse it.

Trudeau senior was famous for never carrying money and never reaching for the cheque. I would find it hard to beloeve he gave money away.

Sometimes there is a difference between doing what is legal and doing what is right. I would hope that if Mr. Bukowsky doesn't see the possibility of this as making a complete mockery of the electoral and appointment process, the Mayor and the City Council would make that fact clear to him.

Nonsense

Indeed, you long for the days of the telegraph, a time, coincidentally, when blacks knew their place, right Nick?

This is a very inconvenient article for our climateers. The initial news to not build 103 coal plants had nothing to do with climate change "China is cancelling plans to build more than 100 coal-fired power plants seeking to rein in runaway, wasteful investment in the sector while moving the country away from one of the dirtiest forms of electricity generation...."

Would the Lt. General please apologize for false judgement! The news media and the Democrats are always quick to commend the victims, but never apologize to the real victims of their false charges. HANDS UP DON'T SHOOT.........

It is an opinion piece- he has an opinion, "Trump bad", and he writes the piece around the opinion. Perfectly logical.

Let's all work hard to find some dirt against Justin Trudeau, particularly his friends and his wealth. Given that he's a prime minister's son, it's hardly surprising he has `friends in high places.` Also, Margaret, you make a false assumption when you imply that rich people cannot be effective advocates for the poor: Engels and Tony Benn are two examples.

. . . was the order of an INFERIOR President compared to Trump (for failure to be Trump). And, do the math. Blake says don't bomb NK. Trump doesn't bomb NK. Blake desires = Trump action. We need Blake's emails. If it wasn't so absolutely and categorically wrong, I'd call on wikileaks to try to get ahold of them - like the Trump campaign did. Where is the Congressiona outrage over the lack of Blake's emails???? Clearly, there is a link between Blake and Trump. They say the same things, and Trump is carrying out what Blake advocates. . . We need Blake's emails. That's where the answers will be. The Trump campaign or Whitehouse is probably holding out on turning them over.

"nobody's buying your charade anymore." I wish you were right. I'll lay money he gets another term

Some of this info, I have to disagree as it is Marketing Fluff. I have sold 5 houses, not once was the size of a persons downpayment ever even remotely considered. All I cared was someone was pre-approved on the loan without any contingencies. Size of down payment is irrelevant to seller. The amount put down doesn't add a cent to the seller's pocket.

Typical, I ask you a question and you ask the exact same question back to me! YOU MADE THE ASININE STATEMENT, you prove it!!!!and then you throw out Fortune 500 companies not coming here???? In case you haven't noticed, Hawaii sits in the middle of the Pacific Ocean FOOL!!!! the cost to do ANYTHING HERE is hard. Why...... WHY would any company chose to come here and struggle??? Let me guess..... its because Dems run the State. Your a biased MORON!!!!

Lets see Trudeau's deficits the next time we have a recession. There going to be whoppers. Funny how those on the left conviently forget that ALL parties voted for stimulous spending.

Yeah - and in 2009 the Dept. of Defense started paying the NFL to put on patriotic displays (including having the players come out of the dugout for the National Anthem.)

I am visiting Toronto. Last evening, after dark, I was driving in the downtown core. The number of pedestrians crossing without a light on Spadina north of Bloor was shocking. It was very dangerous for them and risky for me as a driver. We need enforcement of laws for pedestrians in addition to the points you make.

Interesting. So the only kids who should have the privilege of learning a second language are those whose parents can afford private lessons? Wow, just wow. Also, that doesn't really jive with your support of the following comment: "Sad. Goodbye, America. Hello Chairman Mao and Pancho Villa. NOT happening to MY American kids!" You sound like you are making this up as you go. :-(

What a hillarious way to end your career, (well pause it at least). But hey, if the media can sell a story, Im supposed to care right?
