I want to violate the Canada health act but still get my money for it: PP and DS.

It's their test case for abortion. You know their base would do anything to get it in. With the notwithstanding clause they could get it even if the supreme court rules it unconstitutional.

You mean a bunch of fools started by neoliberals like Thatcher, Reagan couldn't get Modi under control? The same dysfunctional governments all over the world who allowed COVID to be a worldwide pandemic? Modi doesn't care for them.

No surprise there. Senate Republicans want another delay in a Democrat win to fuck over America. Remember how Iran delayed releasing hostages so Reagan could use it against Carter?

Canada would broker a deal with the loss of dairy tariffs with the EU than with the UK. The EU is a vastly bigger market than the UK, and we have way more maple syrup than them.

I think the question is how far along you are to the October crisis before the emergencies act can be deemed to be constitutional? Does it take one murdered minister to invoke it? Or should it be invoked before it happens?

China stole Canadian research and tech multiple times, the last straw being the COVID vaccine that was supposed to be a joint research venture. It's no wonder Canada has reluctance to allow sensitive tech to be researched by Chinese students.

House Republicans will find that this will not be another Clinton impeachment. They will find a very hostile opponent and will end Congress with nothing to show the voters in 2024.

If the QPP isn't even doing better then the CPP how is Alberta going to do better?

What did they expect when it was built as a hammer to end constitutional oversight? There is no onus to make a law constitutional with this clause.
