- This makes me sad. But it explains why farmers and fishermen are always complaining.
- I doubt I will ever understand nationalism or why people fight over where a border is drawn. The idea of a nation-state is a failed idea. Nationalism, statism, regionalism, capitalism, socialism, and all other political religions breed contempt.
- I sincerely do not think that a fair election can occur when there are still muzzle-flashes and bombs going off. It is hard enough for people to make an informed decision without the extra-curricular activities.
- I also do not think that a fair election can take place unless everyone receives all the information about the candidates in a timely fashion. Politics and politicians do not view people as people and the regular Canadians to which they refer are merely commodities to be bought and sold with promises. But even so, this is good news.
- Learning the ABC’s is important. Now it is moreso than ever before.
- Maybe this proves that Canadian real-life satire is better than the American version. The caricatures we choose to depict us to the world seem to be more important to Canadians. Or maybe the Americans are unable to roll their eyes far enough into the back of their heads.
- I went to buy some juice from Home Plus (owned by Tescos) and at the till the teller said no, it has “Chinese Melamine.” So I could not buy my favourite brand of pure, unfiltered, squeezed apple juice. It is called “Straight Juice,” because (I guess) you can never be heterosexual enough. (I just don’t know why it was still on the shelf.)
