Ah ok. I can understand that argument.

But if all humans refused to go to war we wouldn't have war.

Unfortunately, we don't live in a fantasy world with unicorns and rainbows where everybody lives in harmony.

There are some power hungry psychopaths out there who do want war because they want more land, resources, or because they think they are the chosen people of God. And we need to be ready for these assholes.

Nobody is advocating for WWIII. Where did you even read this?

We're talking défense ffs. Can you even read?

Your comment is the cringiest most naive and innocent comment in this whole thread. Wake up and smell the coffee.

What opportunity were you looking for, if you don't mind me asking?

The US is the biggest threat here. Russia can't even support their one war against Ukraine. And China? I think we overestimate them.

Besides, the US would find it difficult to find enough recruits willing to fight Canadians. But whoever is left could be a big threat, still.

We'd have a much better fighting chance by training people than not at all.

Oh come on!

This isn't about invading and occupying a country to topple the government to install a pro-canadian dictator to benefit Canadian businesses and economy.

We're talking about defense here. We have been relying too much on the US and now it's coming back to bite us in the ass.

You know there's more to the army than infantry.

Ah OK thanks for clarifying.

Edit: I thought about it and it could still provide a bigger pool of professionals to pick from to train people. Which could potentially fix the problem.

You mean, against the invading and occupying forces of the United States? Whom invaded under false pretext? Like they keep saying they want to do to Canada?

Maybe. But sometimes it's forced upon us.

If a bully physically attacked you, wouldn't you be better off having had self defense lessons beforehand?

Meh, this is such a non issue. Unless he doesn't get elected in his new riding and loses his position as party leader, there's no point in him moving out just yet. It would be the same for any other opposition party leader in the same situation.

Plus ça va, plus la CAQ me fait chier.

Considering the state of the world, I wouldn't be against mandatory military service. Maybe people still won't stay, but they might have higher retention than now. Plus, we'd have citizens that have been trained and ready to defend the country if needed.

Isn't labor the left leaning party or am I misled by the name?

No. RedHat.

Huh. I didn't know it was like that outside Québec. That sounds so... American

Ew.

Ben oui. Il fallait s'y attendre.

Déjà qu'une fois par semaine il y avait déjà des grosses piles de déchets la veille de la collecte et pleins d'écureuils, de moufettes, de ratons laveurs qui venaient tout ravager. Maintenant c'est pire.

Aux deux semaines maintenant, les gens vont simplement domper leurs déchets ailleurs pour ne pas avoir d'amendes. On se retrouve avec des piles de déchets clandestins sur des coins de rue qui deviennent encombrant au point qu'on doit marcher dans la rue parce que le trottoir est impraticable. Surtout en hiver quand la ville est incapable de déneiger à cause des déchets.

Avec le retour de la chaleur on se ramasse plein de bibittes en plus.

Je pense que une fois par semaine c'était parfais.

They need to fucking admit once and for all that it's a fucking genocide and that Israel is a god damn criminal state.
