It would be nice if the Canadian media would ease up on Trump coverage, its becoming a bore and is mostly repetitious anyway.

Don't look now, but the second is a crime as well, if the alleged document offered as "proof" was created while an employee of the federal government, on a device owned by the federal government, while sitting in a vehicle owned by the federal government, and during hours paid by the federal government. In short, the document, if it ever truly existed, was federal property, and since Comey now claims it no longer exists, it has been evidently destroyed by the only person who claims to have had it in his possession.
So, Comey first violated the government documents statute by stealing it and handing it off to his buddy (who also, btw, has committed a crime by receiving it), and then Comey committed perjury regarding its release, and then he doubled down and destroyed it. OR, it never existed in the first place, in which case, Comey committed perjury. These are all felonies.
Whether the false allegations are criminally actionable, I can't say, but they are civil torts. | 00 | not toxic |

No, national data such as Sports Illustrated polls conducted strictly of Native American's, time and time again debunk your position.

Governor Walker inherited a mess. Just think how easy it was to govern for the last 35 years with all that oil money. For the first time since the oil started flowing we are seeing a government that has to function but cannot function. So I say let the bomb drop, let the State government shut down and let's see if we can make it without the State government. I think if the rest of the state was completely organized into Boroughs the Borough governments could handle the job. At least for everyone but the Delta Junction crowd. They don't need government at all. | 00 | not toxic |
Bingo! What is the desired outcome of a Primary Election? Likely, to determine that Party's nominee in the General Election. I fully understand why the Red Team (Republicans) don't want the 'other' team voting; yet I don't quite understand why the Blue Team (Democrats) would allow Red Team member to vote in their Primary. However, it's their Party and they can do what they like.
But the question remains: what does the State of Alaska benefit from a Primary Election when more than half of the registered voters in Alaska do not belong to a political party?
The results in HD 40 are likely skewered, but please note: it was the Red Team that created the rules that even allowed this to take place. | 00 | not toxic |

There is no denying that Native Americans struggle with socially destructive behaviors, but so do non-natives. All of the things you mention occur all over America everyday among non-Natives. It just isn't as obvious as it is in a small village. The rates may not be the same for all those issues, but at in at least two - drug and alcohol abuse - white Americans take the prize. A significantly higher percentage of white men drink alcohol than any other cultural group, and more of those who do drink, drink heavily daily than any other cultural group. We just don't see it, and if we do see it, we see it differently - when we see white street drunks it's a cultural aberration. When we see Native people in the same condition, we see it as their cultural norm. It's a false view of reality.
White people, men and women, take more illegal drugs and more kind of drugs than any other cultural group. | 00 | not toxic |

Like the bill that passed the House in May, the Senate measure would cut off expanded Medicaid funding for states — but at a more gradual rate, by phasing out the higher federal spending between 2020 and 2024. But it would enact deeper long-term cuts to the program, which provides health-care coverage for 74 million Americans.
Rick Pollack, president and chief executive of the American Hospital Association, said in a statement that the plan “moves in the opposite direction” in terms of providing health coverage and that “Medicaid cuts of this magnitude are unsustainable and will increase costs to individuals with private insurance.”

The NOAA >1880 chart showing greater numbers of severe storms before and after the IR/fossil fuel boom is still hard to ignore.
And due to the lack of recorded data before the late 19th century, sediment data appears to be the best method in determining the frequency and severity of storms <1880.
On a side note- I found it interesting how back in 2002 that NYT's story actually treated the sediment study's findings- which would go against today's GW narrative- with respect.

My. Had your blinkers on the last 15 years I see. Paul Martin's surplus was the result of robbing the EI fund. He intended on suing it to pay Kyoto obligations and to offer tax breaks. Harper used it for tax-breaks and to fulfil an election promise of reducing the gST. He also paid down $25B directly agains the federal debt in his first two years in office. During a minority parliament. During a war Chretien sent us to. And then he did go into debt during a world wide recession. During a minority parliament. When he got his majority government he eliminated the debt. and left Trudeau a surplus. Now Trudeau is running $20B a year deficits with no end in sight.

Cute, but it's not that simple. The collectivist attitudes of the middle 20th century against colonialism only created a different kind of colonialism, where the government owns and controls all of the subsurface and virtually all of the surface and doles out well-paying jobs to the few and a thousand or two per year to most of the rest of the populace. Then there's the "now that I got mine, I need to keep you from getting yours" mentality that the older generations constantly hold over the younger ones. | 00 | not toxic |

From three to 434 oocysts per square foot, that remain viable and infectious in the environment for from 1.5 to 4.5 years is not "minuscule."
And your hyperbole and deflection tips over into the absurd. Incinerating toxo-infected feline carcasses and feces to at least 157 F destroys the oocysts. Not necessary to destroy big cats in the zoo, which unless they've been exposed to free-roaming house cats probably don't have it anyway.
Nor is it unrealistic or unreasonable to OUTLAW possession of invasive felines from the Islands. HI already does this for snakes, many species of which are valued PETS, BTW. Just as mongooses are outlawed from the mainland because of their potential destructiveness should they become invasive. When I was a kid US zoos couldn't even have them.

That's about right. Canadians should not take themselves so seriously. PM Martin, PM Dithers and his record was an example of typical Liberal short sited political expediency.

Instead of having foresight, planning for the future of his country and doing what all European countries like Germany, Netherlands, Poland, Denmark are doing currently with a missile defence system, Dithers was wringing his hands worried and fretting about what a bunch of apprentice students in Quebec thought. US doesn't need Canada's approval for anything. If Canadians think their nation has ever had any sovereignty, think again. Canada is on its own.
