Meaning you have to be your own mechanic like the good old Soviet era.

Probably so people don’t confuse British Columbia with Britain or Colombia

>Wrong, the group that carried out the original genocide is long since dead as are the original people who lived here, the ones who currently live here are a mix of several immigration waves that came mainly AFTER slavery was abolished, the ex-slaves, some natives and the decendents of the colonizers, these groups were already mixed before and after so much time there is no longer a simple part of the population that you can point as the ones who did all these things, the remaining natives today are mainly tribes that were not discovered untill much latter, most of the ones that were discovered either died or joined the mix

I'm sorry, were you under the impression that the US is a nation of immortals and the same people who colonized Virginia in 1608 are still alive and kicking?...

This is literally. exactly. the same situation as in the US, and guess what? Americans are still responsible for the genocide of the natives just like you. You're living on stolen land, in a society founded upon the genocide of the natives and built on the backs of African slaves.

Are the Japanese that came to live on stolen land in the 1900s complicit? Well let's see, they're living on stolen land as part of a colonial society founded upon the genocide of the native peoples, so yes. Just like an Italian family who immigrated to the US in the 1900s is complicit.

It is. But it also begs the question:

>“If Finland is the nutsack and Sweden is the dick, then what is Norway?”

Lest we forget Denmark.

India's population is the largest in the world, so it's no surprise

Not sure the issue here. The USA also does the same thing and in the same way will try to influence papers and research direction. I see no difference

It is certainly a great shame the Huns reelected Orban into government. Even if it wasn't a "fair" election.

India pays russia way less than what the UK would pay directly, so it's win/win.

What else do you expect of a tankie.

Looks how crazy it was during prohibition though. People were getting poisoned by alcohol. Pretty similar situation.

And how do they predict it? By asking for projected company growth. And as far as i know, the majority of chinese companies are state owned ..

I know there's actual hard working families out there that could use help. Don't waste time or money on these dregs of society.

I'm all for not harassing people with criminal charges for small possession and creating additional problems like incarceration, criminal records, etc. Nobody should have their lives ruined over a stupid coke party or whatever your drug of choice is.

That said, we need to find new ways to fight the plague that these drugs cause. Street gangs, violence, child porn and other abuse, domestic violence, robberies, murder and all those things have a strong connection to these drugs. They exist in the absence of these drugs but these problems are massively magnified by drugs.

The federal government has permitted the province to conduct this trial without any criminal penalties.

Why should society waste a penny on these losers?

As long as religion is around, it will never stop

No because it protects everything better in Ukraine anyway

"...Concerns over the scheme's central method, income averaging, were first raised in the media in late 2016.

The Coalition government repeatedly defended the program, which continued to operate until 2019, falsely accusing hundreds of thousands of welfare recipients of owing money to Centrelink.

Ms Miller said there was a "proliferation" of negative media coverage in late 2016 that was "growing and growing and growing" but it was "predominantly in the left-wing media".

"We weren't too concerned because it wasn't unusual that the left-wing media were attacking us regarding social policy," she said.

(...)

"The prime minister [Malcom Turnbull] was unhappy with the escalating media issue around this [Robodebt] … we were trying to contain it," she said.

"I developed a crisis media strategy at the request of the minister – he was very firm with me that I needed to shut this story down.

"That involved … placing stories with the more friendly media, the right-wing media, about how the Coalition was actually catching people who were cheating the welfare system."

"But we had a continued crisis in the left-wing media that wasn't seeming to die down," she said.

Ms Miller said the government released personal information of Robodebt "case studies" to the media to deter more people from speaking out.

"The minister requested the file of every single person who appeared in the media … you could see the exact transactions that they'd had with Centrelink.

"This would send a clear message … that maybe consider it [going to the media] twice.

"There were less people speaking out in the media which was our intention."

'It's a disgrace' Former acting national manager of Department of Human Services Bevan Hannan at Robodebt royal commission. He said he became "quite upset" watching earlier public hearings because "it became apparent that people [at the department] knew that aspects of the Robodebt scheme were unlawful".

"There was an opportunity in January 2017 to put a stop to it," Mr Hannan said. "

The media is never on the leftist side.

Why are humans still like this?????

That’s what the IMF predicts, not China.

You missed the point

How will this reduce deaths ?

Putin and Russian leadership convicted in absentia and that will be it so long as Putin remain hunkered down in lavish bunker in Moscow.

American Christian VS Muslim
