Quote from: Grey Fox on Today at 10:53:02 AM:lol: Quite different.

The federal Liberal apparatus is fearmongering because the PQ is leading the polls. I don't think it's a good strategy, the election is still far away (next October) and the provincial Liberals aren't ready for any campaigning. They even had their own self-made controversy this week where it was made clear that Pablo Rodriguez is a weak leader at best.


Yes, it's Quebec politics.  Not a minister wanting to give Quebec to the Americans. Just the same old song and dance.

Quote from: Crazy_Ivan80 on Today at 01:38:59 AMThe question is of course how much it matters if China manages to keep it up long enough to knock its competition out of the game

It will also matter if China knocks the competition out of the game as you say, we all become (even more) dependent on the Chinese economy and manufacturing, and then the Chinese economy goes kablooey.

Quote from: Tonitrus on November 23, 2025, 08:18:03 PM"Clutching their pearls" has become the latest overused phrase that I've come to hate every time I hear it.

Not a phrase, but my current bugbear is using "spend" as a noun.

Rereading Viper's post, I see a possibility that he meant that Joly was delivering Québec to Trump. Was that it?

Yes, that is what I thought he was saying.

There's been a rat (gawd I hope it's just the one) that has made its way up to our loft, and runs around down a floor just above our bedrooms. The noise is.. unsettling. Rat guy was here 5 days ago put down poison, waiting for that to take effect.

Yes I know it's going to stink like hell if we can't recover the body. I just want to be dealing with that stage of the problem, will at least know the fucker is dead.

The guy also gave a couple of tips on how to make new infestations harder. Apparently there's a pretty easy highway from the top of our garden fence to the garage roof and from there into the gutter downpipe that leads up to the roof.

Amazing projection in yelling hypocrisy with views like yours.
You would have to read my posts from time to time to understand what I was talking about.  What is hypocritical about my views?
