There are many reasons to support diversity, and even if you don't like it, there are reasons to support it. Okay. Let's embrace your argument. If we do that then we have to start issuing medical licenses and engineering licenses to minority applicants not based upon 'racist' standards but based up... |

There's that, Ian Bush, Dziekanski, Orion Hutchinson, Buddy Tavares... those are just the BC incidents I can remember without looking anything up. Buddy Tavares is a travesty in Canada; Dziekanski I still say no, I don't know the Hutchinson case and I side completely with the RCMP on Ian Bush. Anyb... |

Of course, I'm willing to be that the College Republicans are very healthy, well heeled white people. White people that didn't give two shits about the inherent discrimination faced by minorities on the road to college, but scream like bastards when suddenly the world isn't exclusively their's for t... |

Here's our chance to get rid of those numbnuts. BCPP here we come. Who do you think would be making up the BCPP anyway? All fresh recruits? Where would the BCPP get their cars, radios and detachments? Where would they get their forms, procedures and what-not? What about cases currently before the c... |

Actually your wall has a wobble. Regarding the 2nd law, I posted an article that attempted to disprove that law. No where did I say that I'm in agreement. The biggest problem with the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics is that the law most people quote is a verbal explanation of an equation which has, as on... |

Bill can blow it out his ass. Global cooling was as much of an issue in the 1970's as GW is today. Really? There were international panels on global cooling in the 1970's that concluded imminent widespread catastrophe that bore fruit? At best, it was a myopic look at 30 years of data that could be ... |

Falsification has nothing to do with it. You don't seek to disprove or prove anything. One gather's information, makes an informed hypothesis and seeks to test it. By seeking to prove or disprove said hypothesis one inserts bias into the experiment. It's the wrong approach regardless of subject. Se... |

Ah yes, the Heartland Institute. Are you Phillip Morris looking to minimize public health education on the dangers of second-hand smoke? Just hire the Heartland Institute.

Romney is a flip-flopper. Perry can't separate church and state. They should be proud. Actually there is nothing that says he has to. Well, there is a massive problem with that. Perry got elected on the promise he was going to cut harmful, ozone-eroding, abortion causing taxes and he did; despite b... |

Well, an interesting start would be to figure out just how much of the Sheppard Extension has been paid for through ridership fares along it (including maintenance costs.) If such a "secondary" route for the subway is viable, then I don't see a problem slowly expanding subway services. Und... |

You saying Brock and Dayseed are presenting themselves as victims? Or victim's advocates I guess. Oh, how could I turn such a blind eye to discrimination by suggesting this shouldn't happen on school property during school hours, no matter if menstruation is involved. Next up - orthodox Jews can't ... |

It's a very good point Dayseed. How did it get to this in at least 10 Toronto schools? If somebody blames "PC run amok", normally I don't agree with that, but in this case, it certainly is a viable explanation. Political correctness is still a valuable doctrine for ostracizing discriminat... |

Rather than put words in the school administrators (teachers, janitors, passers-by or whomever) that they turned a blind eye to the rampant discrimination, shouldn't we also ask WHY they turned a blind eye to this whole thing? The fact that girls were discriminated against, while horrible, only come... |
