click on their name go to their profile and choose block. or from the menu selection in the upper right corner manage preferences are. Settings. Ignored Users. Punch in their name. Life gets easier afterwards. Of course they'll say "you just don't want to hear a different point of view" while never understanding their point of view never changes and is always based on incorrect stats and negativity

400 people on at any moment in time all lining up to somehow ignore numbers facts stats quotes and genuine evidence to simply shart on the management, every pick and prospect as well as the entire team in their rush to be the most negative poster on the site. Remarkable really

Don't really need to read more than this to know what you're trying to do and thus stop engaging with you One more year and he is a FA and can sign with Boston, almost his home town and a cup contender that has their farm team 34 miles away. 20 miles away from home.

The full breakdown of todays announcement. Hard to not actually be impressed that this is coming from the NDP http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/john-horgan-offers-tax-break-incentives-to-40b-kitimat-lng-project-1.4588079 B.C. Premier John Horgan says the province is willing to offer a break on carbon tax as well as an exemption on provincial sales tax related to construction costs at a $40-billion liquefied natural gas export terminal under consideration for the northern community of Kitimat, B.C. The NDP leader laid out the incentives as part of what he said was a clear framework for the approval of any LNG projects under his government's tenure. Read: Natural Gas Development announcement technical briefing notes They include a fair return for the public, job creation, partnership with First Nations and a guarantee to protect the environment. "I don't believe at all for a minute that this is going to be easy," Horgan told a news conference in Victoria. "This is going to be very, very difficult, but we're committed to making sure it works." Horgan rejected a suggestion that his government was offering the same kind of incentives to LNG projects for which they criticized the previous Liberal administration. Rendering of the proposed project by LNG Canada near Kitimat. (LNG Canada/Flickr) Those sweeteners included a promise to compensate a major LNG project that was slated for Prince Rupert for any tax raises over a 25-year period after the plant starts shipping. A consortium led by Malaysian energy giant Petronas cancelled the project last summer. Final decision looming A final investment decision is now looming for the LNG Canada Kitimat project backed by Royal Dutch Shell in partnership with Petrochina, KOGAS and Mitsubishi Corp. Horgan said he wanted to be transparent on what the ground rules would be ahead of any deal. Hope endures for liquefied natural gas industry on West Coast as world demand continues Cancelled $36B LNG project was 'wake-up call' to industry, says energy exec "I'm standing before you today and speaking directly to the people of British Columbia and saying there may well be a final investment decision on an LNG facility in northern British Columbia, and should that happen, we will put in place a framework that will allow them to be competitive," he said. 'We may get one' "[The Liberals] got zero. We may get one. I believe there'll be a benefit to British Columbians." Horgan acknowledged that Green Leader Andrew Weaver does not agree with all the elements of the NDP's framework. Weaver has threatened to bring Horgan's minority government down over its pursuit of LNG projects, but the premier said the two men had spoken at length about the plans. He left it to Weaver to state his position. B.C. Green Party leader Andrew Weaver says he is concerned the greenhouse gas emissions produced by the LNG Canada project proposed for Kitimat will make it difficult for the province to meet its climate change targets. (Mike McArthur/CBC) "Andrew's very passionate about combating climate change. It's his reason for being in this legislature and he makes no apologies for that, nor should he," he said. "What he has done is he's agreed to work with us and other sectors of the economy to make sure that our climate action challenge plan is robust, realistic and can meet the challenges we all face to meet those objectives over time." What about climate targets? At an afternoon news conference, Weaver said his party's confidence in the NDP government is "predicated on government developing a climate plan to meet our targets." Weaver said his party's target is a 40 per cent reduction in emissions by 2030. The NDP have said they share the same commitment, but Weaver pointed out that they have yet to produce a concrete plan for how to get there. But the Green leader suggested he wasn't ready to pull the plug on the so-called confidence and supply agreement he and Horgan signed in order to form government. "Our goal is not to throw down the government. Our goal is to get the government to deliver on the confidence and supply agreement," he said. "We're not making a threat ... show us the climate plan that will deliver this target, and we will continue to have confidence in government." Twitter Ads info and privacy A decision on the LNG Canada project is expected later this year. According to information provided by the province, the project would be the least greenhouse gas intensive large LNG facility in the world. The B.C. ministries of finance and energy have estimated that the project will generate $22 billion in direct government revenue over the next 40 years. The project is also expected to employ as many as 10,000 people by 2021. In response to Horgan's announcement, the LNG Canada consortium put out a statement praising the framework. "LNG Canada welcomes these measures, which will promote access for natural gas from BC to be exported as LNG to the fastest growing economies in the world," the statement read. "For BC and Canada to miss the next opportunity to supply LNG would be a significant loss to the province, the country and the globe.

Watched the interview, wasn't actually terrible

Remember what i said during the election? Horgan would roll over on resource promises and allow them to happen. Burnaby expansion promised not to allow it. Instead is "letting the courts decide" while simply asking for studies in to dilbit clean up and mitigation as well as that world class response the feds talked about. He's getting it Would stop site C. Unless it was too expensive which at that point in time during development it was. Would have been a half billion dollar walk away. No way was he going to accept that Would stop LNG. But at no point in time would that happen with Site C proceeding. He just needed to ensure Weaver had his cake as well which he now does. he is literally giving both sides what they want. Plus some room to gripe about it. It's hard to argue that he isn't surprising both sides while ensuring smart resource development is occurring
-
Actually as per the interview. Horgan said Weaver was not happy and that it was ok to be unhappy. But Horgan is allowing Weaver to take the reigns for climate change and industry standards across multiple other industries as a trade off for this. Weaver is getting what he wants in broad areas while Horgan is allowing important areas to happen.

Horgan just all but ok'd LNG development in the province up to and including tax credits for investing companies. I recall stating he'd turn around and ok almost everything people swore he'd be against. Turns out I was right. B.C.’s provincial government is offering a PST exemption for the construction costs on any LNG facilities in an effort to secure a final investment decision from LNG Canada. The government is also setting a cap of $30 per tonne on its carbon tax, exempting LNG facilities from having to pay more in the event that the tax goes up to $50 per tonne. But the rebate would only apply if LNG Canada met a target to build the world’s cleanest LNG facility when it comes to carbon emissions. https://globalnews.ca/news/4099569/watch-live-b-c-premier-john-horgan-set-to-make-natural-gas-announcement/?utm_source=GlobalBC&utm_medium=Facebook

No sir. Military enlistment is mandatory. They put kids through training and ensure everyone knows how rifles and various arms and armaments work. Ammo is also not allowed to be stored at home and all weapons kept locked and in safes. ALL guns are registered. ALL guns are very securely kept and while gun ownership is a right it is very strict in the sense that not everyone is entitled to one In October 2007, the Swiss Federal Council decided that the distribution of ammunition to soldiers shall stop and that all previously issued ammo shall be returned. By March 2011, more than 99% of the ammo has been received. Only special rapid deployment units and the military police still store ammunition at home today.

We haven't been free since the early 70s. You literally cannot even power your own home without facing fines fees or penalties. This endless notion that North America is "free" has been a fallacy for decades. Seriously, go try to build a home on crown land. Add an addition to your house. Drive without a seatbelt on. Or have a forward facing car seat on a child that needs a rear facing one. We're not free and haven't been in a very long time

Uhh....what? http://firearmslaw.ca/gun-law-resources/firearms-legislation/charter-of-rights-and-freedoms/ http://activehistory.ca/2017/02/20743/ But, just because things sound right does not mean that they are correct. Let me be very clear: Canadian courts have decided there is no right to possess a firearm in Canada.
-
Again and I know this is difficult but please follow along The Liberals are also proposing a return to a system which entrusts the RCMP with classifying firearms under three categories: non-restricted, restricted and prohibited — a departure from the Harper-era rule which gave cabinet the power to override such a decision. This is not a new rule it worked for almost 5 decades in fact before it was changed.....

Prefer SLR Lounge, F Stoppers and Peta Pixel but thanks

Ya see they cannot make the law. That's the funny part. This has been the talking point for your ilk for the last 36 hours and it isn't true. As for criminals with guns, omg take away the ability for criminals to get guns...stop buying so many guns and leaving them outside of a safe for criminals to steal and it won't be an issue.
-
Just so we're clear. The government can prohibit and classify guns however they like. If you don't like it, well there's not much we can do about it. Remember this is a law that existed before Trudeau, Harper repealed it and he is simply allowing the Police to use due discretion with the oversight of the minister in charge
