China will buy more from Canada than the US in the next several decades anyhow. We may need deals with China more so than the USA.
Canadian consumers might as well be able to get their manufactured goods straight from the source. |

The sky is falling much? This just means the British aren't hypocrites, at least in terms of long term policy. They populated 3 continents in the last 400 years, and now they've allowed some people into their island, mostly from their former colonies. I can't see anything wrong with this, and the Br... |

Troops coming home after a war is always good news. [B-o] [B-o] What will they do when they return? Jobs are scarce. Especially for the unskilled (non techie) troops. This is 90,000+ people to add to the jobs roster. Methinks with the winding down of the Iraq/Afghan wars, there will be many private... |

I'd be more quick to toss out a generalization about shitty Chinese drivers than reclusive attitudes to not caring about innocents.
Gulp at the very thought of China 'driving' the world economy. |

Damn, I am going to say outright this summary execution of big G is not a good way to kick off a 'democracy'. This new Libya...not much better than old Libya. Murdering Africans, summary executions, reports of looting and robbery by NTC forces...about that fresh start. The only fresh thing about thi... |

It's not all that great actually.
A war (worst case scenario) between the two would cause oil prices to shoot up so high that it would seriously dent the recovery in the west. |

China's trade policy is almost a global sized middle finger. They're not really allowing too many finished western goods to compete with local manufacturers. China and Japan have both pursued very negative trade policies (dare I say mercantilist). This will not fly for long, especially as policymake... |

Very glad to see Shalit is out. Must have been 5 years of real hell. "We would have kept on negotiating. But we have realized this is the ceiling we can get to." So even Hamas admits 1 Israeli is worth 1000 Palestinians. Something to remember.... Demographics is destiny. Israel will have ... |

Oh no, evil liberal CBC!!! Let's be honest here, we know Harper's plan will fail. Crime rate will stay the same, costs will soar. For example: 4 University kids stand in a circle pass a joint around, passing a joint to someone else in this legislation is a federal offence. They don't get jobs when t... |
