| I understand you don't know what one basic concept of trade, comparative advantage , is. Heh. Liberal types tend to think everything is zero-sum. They aren't. And that's why a "trade deficit" doesn't matter. When did I ever even mention "trade deficit"? Try to keep up. When did ... |

| For his research, Straus also analyzed surveys done by nearly 18,000 students in 32 countries — including Canada — and found that, generally, countries with high national-average IQs were nations that had banned, or do not socially accept, spanking. The exceptions were the top five countries on the... |

Zipperfish Zipperfish: The apology is from Health Canada. This is typical Conservatvie tactics. Blame the bureacracy.

| Tell you what, let's get Health Canada to do this on a massive scale and send out the exact same shipments to every major city in the country. If that happened, there would be a major panic. I wouldn't panic. I'd be shocked that the government had the foresight to do something like that, but I woul... |

TweedleJack and TweedleGilles are going to vote to overthrow the government no matter what so Layton can give a Santa Claus list to Harper as long as his arm and it won't change a damned thing.

The same cant be said for the guy working at Wendy's who has been there for three years and makes 10.50 while the new 14 year old who just started makes the same. Indeed.
