Singapore is a pretty good option, I'm a Canuck and I've been considering it for the last couple of years. And since Iceland is considering moving to the loonie(canadian currency), I may move there if they do that too. Both are viable in my book. Considering the hassle of even traveling to the place I have in the US anymore, I've already sold my US property I was going to retire to. And here I was planning 20 years ahead, well at least I cleared an extra 100k to the bank.
Canadian culture is what Cancon tells you it is. AKA the government controlled bureaucracy. Remember, we don't have free speech here, we have limited speech(per s1 of the charter) dictated by what what the government gives you, we don't have free culture, we have culture protected and dictated to you by a "arms length" government agency. And least of all don't forget, that questioning any of this, makes you a bad canadian(according to the liberals--they did use that in a campaign about 10 years ago when the reform party pushed for reforms of cancon), probably a conservative, and thus anti-canadian.
Yeah. I mean it's not like Canada can do much after all, after it tells it's citizens. Don't go there. And it can't do much diplomatically besides recalling it's ambassadorship, and besides it's not like we're already in a roll with them after refusing them another embassy in the country because they're terrorist scuzz suckers in the first place either. You don't know as much as you think you know, let alone understand as much as you think you know.
130 years isn't enough, but it's not evidence of any problem what so ever. Don't forget that in most places, even here in the western world we've only started getting 'accurate' temprature forcasts since the 1980's in remote locations. And in the 1970's, we were still discussing island heat effects, and before that there were other issues too. To be frank and honest, every time something like this comes out and says "it's the hottest in 100 years" I kind of shurg, and remind myself that's a very small period of time. After all, the earth has been 10C warmer than it is now, and it didn't come to a screeching halt, in fact it was full of bountiful life. Well it's been warmer than that too. And still didn't come to a screeching halt.
People forget that our modern recordings of temperatures aren't accurate, at best we have 20-25 years of semi-reliable readings from within cities and major urban areas. 30ish years, of areas outside of cities and rural areas. And no one has a clue how tainted, or screwed up any of that data even is. And even in the last 10 years we have data that's still tainted and full of cherry picking, and full of hot spots because of bad stations.
Because the rest of yous do so much more than anonymous to stand up.
Actually yes I do, AC. If you knew my real name. You'd know I'm very well known in Canada in both the law, business and privacy circles for fighting for individual and rights and freedoms, and the protection of privacy. As well as opening canada to more foreign business opportunities. So we can have more competition.
Unlike them AC, I don't deface a website and tear down a virtual poster. Nor do I stand up and protest outside of a building making nonsensical rants. I work within the legal framework of the country to make changes.
Obviously some of us have read a lot more history than you have. Politicians whether appointed, or elected have always worked for the people. Simply not in the way you expect, and that's the way it has been throughout history. Whether it was the front-town mayor, or magistrate. Or the regional crown. The problem that exists now, is that cronyism is far too profitable and thus is corrupting politics to the point where politicians are no longer working for the people.
You break cronyism, you break the hold that it has on things like this.
Why? It's either fuel oil, or slightly treated fuel oil. We pump that stuff at -30C to -45C(you gotta stop at -50C otherwise it just takes too long) in Canada without a problem with anti-jellers to stop it from thickening up when it hits -15C. There's no need to heat it to 60C unless you're burning it, that's what glow plugs are for at the engine, and that's to make it self-combust easier, because diesels don't use spark ignition.
Never. But then again, Cicero figured that out 2000ish years ago. I always figured that the classics should be required reading if you're going to be a politician.
Yeah that's my thought. To be honest, if anonymous thought that jamming turkey basters in their dicks would stop scientology they would probably do it. Then rave about how it worked, while posting pictures.
A new meme would be started, and Goatse.cx would have a new challenger.
That's possible, but very rare. When you're trying to figure out why crime is occurring you're always looking at the environmental factors and using the best options to work with. Usually motion tracker lighting is the best option. But saying there's no reduction is wrong, there is a reduction.
It's easy enough to counter his points from the basic Chicago criminology school and CEPTD, especially since he's using CCTV as a basis on most of those points. CCTV is a terrible, terrible system. It remove people from the ground, and it's people who are patrolling that deter crime, even if those patrols are random.
One only needs to look at the EU to see examples of the left and far left to see exactly what they believe. That's stripping away whole sovereignty of nations, and controlling them without any process at all, removing elected presidents and primeministers(see italy and greece). And attempting to directly gain control of each individual EU member nations budgets forever, and being able to withdraw funds on demand without being libel or subject to any law, treaty, stipulation, or ever being held accountable to it.
Don't be naive, and stop being ignorant of the world around you.
israel fought many defensive battles, gained land and then gave it back. but that's still not enough, is it?
To those that hate Israel? No it's not enough, because the only way they'll be happy is when every Jew and Israeli citizen(that includes arabs, and other minorities) are dead.
As it stands now, it'll be another war especially with the rising tide of Islamic supremacist screaming going on, and the brotherhood gaining a foothold. People like to say "oh they've changed, they're not blah blah blah pro-toss women back to the dark ages" yeah, give it a year and get back to me. Anyway, you can bet that within 5 years there will be border skirmish's, within 10, Israel will probably control the Sinai again.
Massive deforestation? Really? I suppose outside of the west, where environmentalists are holding back farming technology, much like they're holding back the same technology to stop top soil erosion. Depletion of fresh water? Again, that's hit or miss, kind of like the "all the glaciers are going to be gone" but they're not. Acidification has been repeatedly overblown, and oddly enough the latest papers seem to point out that reefs and sea life do just fine with acidic oceans, the problem seems to be more related to...can you guess it? Pollution and UV damage.
And well, there's still plenty of debate as to whether or not there's even any extinction. Seeing as how the numbers themselves have been repeatedly been shown as fudged by a variety of environmentalist groups, and NGO's. You can't have food production and clean water, unless environmentalists are willing to let the rest of the world catch up. Which they don't seem to be willing to do, they seem much happier ensuring that 18th or earlier farming techniques remain in practice, and 8-15 kids per family is the norm.
Well industry canada has already said that enough is enough. You might have heard the deal with the keystone pipeline? And people being signed up, who didn't actually sign up? And people basically clogging the system and screwing with our own sovereignty issues? Yeah. Even our government is getting tired of this, not only by foreign individuals, but by foreign countries(the US in this case).
As it stands now? Well, China is more than happy to buy our oil. And to be perfectly honest, that's fine with me.
Actually it would be a levy refund, not a tax refund. Because this isn't a tax, it isn't collected for or by government. Nor does it go into government coffers. This would get expensive for the media companies very quickly. I think in my case alone, I could produce receipts for around $10k alone. I went through a lot of CD's at one time for off-site backups.
California is the 8th largest economy in the world. Period. It would be a world power on it's own. California would do quite well on it's own given it's natural resources and it's western US shipping ports. California sees less return on federal dollars than is taken in taxes. (Who's the parasite, again?) California's population and land size give it country sized problems with state sized control and funds.
You mean oops my reality bias is showing?
Canada has a smaller population, and is somewhere between 7th and 10th in the worlds largest economies last time I looked. Environmentalists ensure that california doesn't do anything with their 'natural resources' this is why they import a glut of what they use. And funny enough, they're trying the same in Canada. If that was true, they wouldn't be have a ~370b debt as it stands now. Canada has an excess of land and still has country and 'state' sized problems which it seems to be able to deal with effectively and well. Remember in Canadaland, territories and anything that the provinces don't deal with is the jurisdiction of the feds. That means ~60-70% of the country is run by the crown, or a crown overlay of some type with provincial representation. Remember that big economic crash a couple of years ago? I hear you guys are still a pretty tough spot. Not so much up here.

Try Dawkins, your citation can start from there.
So, when those of us told people that Egypt was going to slide into an islamist theocracy and folks called us nutters...
And the atheist mob will do it to you if you're religious at all? It's not hard to see the proof on the other side, to find that both are complicit.
Well it's obviously a feature come egypt today too.
Yeah. I mean it's not like Canada can do much after all, after it tells it's citizens. Don't go there.

Hmm. Well like usual, in Canada. It'll be cloudy, with snow. So, looks like there won't be anything to see anyway.

Great. That's yet another ruined keyboard. heh
Yeah due process...damn pesky thing. Sure makes you wonder about lawyers sometimes doesn't it?
