The last one was gay marriage rights. The next one will be assisted suicide, and conservatives will fight that one, too. They'll end up citing religious reasons again too, I bet.


edit- Oh, and your constitution was liberals fighting against conservatives- same as it always was.
Cue the 'redefinition' argument.

Show me marriage in the Constitution and yes, I will fight assisted suicide as it has no place in the Constitution. Now if you want to put marriage in there go for it but equal protection has no place on this issue

As I figured nothing more than a big govt liberal who ignores states' rights which most states execute but when they can't they go after activist justices to create law for them.

There's probably nothing in the constitution that allows gay marriage or assisted suicide. Nothing there against slavery, either, or allowing women to vote, I bet.
I don't care about states rights. I'm Canadian. We have the same liberal-conservative dynamic up here, though.
And I'm not talking about creating a law, I'm talking about trashing one. Tell me why assisted suicide, properly supervised, should be against the law. Hell, for that matter, tell me why attempted suicide is illegal.

Then you have never looked at the Constitution, Suggest you educate yourself first. As a Canadian you spend a lot of time here bashing conservatives and Trump. I love most Canadians and have no problem with our defense spending protecting you but would like a little appreciation for it

There is a procedure in this country to create laws, the left wants activist justices to do it whereas the right wants the legislature. Assisted suicide can be passed by Congressional action

And what would that appreciation look like to you? Tell you what, since it's you and I making policy here, just stop protecting us. I don't know who you think you're protecting us from anyway, we don't have enemies. Nobody 'hates us for our freedom'. In fact, if the average Canadian were to point on a map to the biggest threat to our sovereignty, well... we've been invaded three times in our history, guess by whom?

The US Military budget exceeds the entire GDP of Canada so what are we defending you from? Why don't you wait until attacked and find out who comes to your defense? Absolutely stunning how poorly informed you are but even so if there was a way I could stop our country from protecting people like you I would do it but the assets(good people of Canada) outweigh the liabilities(bad people) IMO. Nobody quite frankly gives much of a damn about Canada, an absolutely beautiful country but with far too many screwed up liberals who don't even have a clue what is going on in the world yet you come here telling us about our govt. problems? You have your own, solve them and at least educate yourself what the US Constitution provides for citizens.

I had the Canadian GDP at 519 BILLION Dollars so my error and apology, the GDP is 1.5 trillion dollars and our current military budget is 700 billion dollars which would be about half of that then wouldn't it?

And the US is about 15 T. As we are approx 10% yes.
Thing is many on the right in the US are sorely misinformed about their allies.
They think that what is good for the US is great for the world.

The US is over 18 trillion, it went from 10.2 trillion when Clinton left office to 14.7 trillion when Bush left office to 18.3 trillion today. Let's see if you can do the math between Bush and Obama?

As for what is good for this country is good for this country and it is time to return those values and get away from the leftwing political correctness and appeasement. The US has freed and liberated more people than any other country in the world and all we have ever asked for is enough land to bury our dead. Sad state of affairs that the left has ruined our reputation abroad and how the media spins our world relationship

Other allies were there as well. Many Canadian Military are buried in Europe. Canada during WW1 had 10 % of the population at the time serving in the Military.
600 K out of 6 million.

Ever been to Normandy? My point stands, the arrogant liberals demonizing this country ignore how many people we have freed as well as your contributions as well and what we get for it today? This country doesn't take land, this country doesn't take oil, this country has been the world's police force. I support Trumps stance, NO MORE

The SITE Intelligence Group, which bills itself as the world’s leading non-governmental counterterrorism organization, noted that Bissonnette “liked” Donald Trump, French Front National leader Marine Le Pen and the Israeli Defence Force on Facebook “making Jihadi ties unlikely.”

The Montreal Gazette pointed out that he also liked Mathieu Bock-Cóté, a Quebec City columnist known for his pro-nationalist and anti-multicultural views. Bissonnette was also known locally for his right-wing viewpoints.

More from the Gazette article: “A refugee welcome group in the capital city, however, said Bissonnette’s name and photograph were already familiar to them. In a post on Facebook, Bienvenu aux réfugiés said they learned “with sadness and anger about the identity of the terrorist Alexandre Bissonnette, unfortunately known by several militants in Quebec City for his viewpoints that were pro-LePen and anti-feminist, as expressed in social media and at Université Laval.”

Meanwhile, the Globe and Mail is also reporting that Bissonnette “was known in the city’s activist circles as a right-wing troll who frequently took anti-foreigner and anti-feminist positions and stood up for U.S. President Donald Trump.”

First of all, to be a "Trump supporter", you'd have to be an eligible voter. Fail. Secondly, this is based on a supposed comment from a supposed acquaintance of the shooter. With all the fake news coming out of the left wing propaganda cabal these days, I'm gonna need something a little more substantial. Fail #2.

It's only their baby when they repeal it and replace it. Until then it's Obama's

And I don't agree with the Pubs, I said I would let it implode and let the Dems come in and fix their disaster. Problem is the Dems are not showing up for work, their not to be found. It reminds me of Hillary's missing e-mails and now the Dem's party is missing. Good riddance.

Since Canada is offering to take refugees who can't get into the USA, then why can't they also take some of these refugees which Australia is also sending to the USA?
