Link! "Canadian troops in Afghanistan have been told the Geneva Conventions and Canadian regulations regarding the rights of prisoners of war don't apply to Taliban and al-Qaeda fighters captured on the battlefield. That decision strips detainees of key rights and protections under the rules of war, including the right to be released at the end of the conflict and not to be held criminally liable for lawful combat. " Okay, so Harper has taken a page out of the Bush book, and is doing the "enemy combatants" don't have rights. Well, what the fuck were the Geneva Convention's regulations trying to prevent. Tortue of anyone's troops. I don't care if the Taliban doesnt have a soverign nation, it has troops, and if you dont want our soldiers to be treated inhumanely, then follow the rules of the convention, at least your in the ethical higher ground. Anyway, this really bugs me because at one point Canada had a reputation, albiet tenious one, for Human Rights and Peacekeeping, now we've looseing one and lost the other. Discuss.

As of now i see no problems with it.

I think to put into question whether a soccer team should be allowed to play based on the geo-politics is rather hilarious. Unless of course it's a nuclear soccer team bent on world domination, why shouldnt they be allowed to play?

I havent seen it, but it doesnt exactly look like William's best work.

i love the chinese.

man i know the feeling, when i was living in oshawa i came early casue i was a volunteer for the residence. Turns out the cafe' wasnt open so i had to fend for myself. A week of KD, chinese noodles and chicken noodle soup was glorious.

Yes there are. There are lots of Italians in Hamilton. There are streets named after them. P.S. What don't you understand about me picking apart Meg's hideous spelling of Italian words? i wasn't being serious lol

BAHAHAHHA yes one of the best episodes ever

nothing i did as a kid explains anything about what career i want... weird.

oh snap! that's true yo, i gatta dip, cya!

just me though ;)

its on like DONKEY KONG!

worry? whatchu talkin bout?

This whole thread sorta boggles my mind. Why are people acting surprised that he's not what the media says he is. When has the media really ever gotten it right? lol

haha yes, we need more options here to say no! lol

hahaha yah i know what you mean, but apparently a lot of my friends didnt get it, and sure they arent always the smartest but they give it a try! hahah I am only baseing those statements on my friends experiances since I already read the book and enjoyed it.

Yes this news also reprieve

I voted Suburbia just cause it has a lot of memories attached to it, and it killed me to do it cause i really love Born to Kill as well.

My experiance exactly. My sister then promptly bought the album and i stole it, hehehe ;)

for the record: ;)

You're italian? i thought you lived in hamilton? theres no italians living in hamilton ;)

hah whoah that pedophile thing really got out of hand! I dont think they should criminalize or prosecute people for being polygamists if and ONLY if, it can be reliably proven that the women or men aren't indoctrinated or in fear of leaving, which a lot of wives of polygamists are. It becomes in my mind a quite terrible crime if the women are trapped, nothing to do with morality at all, i dont care if you have ten wives and they all love you dearly and love each other and wouldn't leave for the world. It's when you see the women who are indoctrinated or scared or being abused into staying and thats really messed up. But how would you regulate such a lifestyle? The same way we regulate marriage? I dunno..

Exactly, we can sit here and completely disagree, but i respect that you have your own opinions, its nothing personal, we just comppletely disagree which is completely normal... On another strikeing note, Left/Libertarian has been voted for 34 times... holy shit, when you think about it thats definetely quite a large number.

hmmm it seems your right...it's part of an elabroate plan hatched by Hitler, and it seems he is succeeding! RUN PEOPLE RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!

Anyone who is assiting a pedophile should be charged. If that's what these women did then send them to their punishments. I dont necessarily agree with deportation, because it can last longer then a punishment and one needs to factor in the children and how they will be impacted by the judgement.
