Unfortunately, a plurality of Jews in Canada support the Conservative Party, at least those where there are large, active Jewish communities.   The political ridings in Canada with large Jewish communities are Thornhill, a suburb of Toronto

2015 election results
Conservative 31,911, 58.56%
Liberal 18,395, 33.76%

York Centre, a riding in the 'mega city' of Toronto.  The Liberals won here in 2015 but this was the Conservatives best result in Toronto.
Liberal 20,131,  46.88%
Conservative 18,893,  43.99%

Mount Royal, a riding in Montreal.  This is a historical Liberal riding, but the Conservatives didn't even get above 20% of the vote in any other Montreal riding.
Liberal: 24,187, 50.34%
Conservative: 18,201, 37.88%

Prior to Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the Canadian Jewish Congress (since renamed) essentially becoming an arm of the Conservative Party, all three of these ridings were generally heavily Liberal. (Thornhill being part of the suburbs of Toronto was always somewhat more Conservative.)

Forgot to mention, the Conservatives also held York Centre from 2011-2015.

They have a federal anti hate speech law there that seems particularly directed toward any criticism of Jews and apparently even any mention of them. No, don't even point. In fact, stop thinking about them. They don't even exist! I'm outta here!

Some poster here mentioned there was a paranormal/conspiracy guy in Canada that got fired from Corus, interestingly enough named "Greg Bell the Spaceman," I think out of Toronto? Not sure I had never heard of him but apparently he mentioned "Joose" one night and that was that. I guess ok to talk UFO, Jesuits, Neo-Cons, Illuminati, NASA, CIA, RIghtwing Christians, etc conspiracy but don't touch on a certain group. BTW, oes Canada still have some regulation/law about percentage locally produced content? Maybe that could also be the reason for dropping C2C?

I don't know anything about Greg Bell.  CKNW had entirely local or Canadian content other than C2C.

For what it is worth...and it aiint worth much:
https://www.coasttocoastam.com/article/new-canadian-affiliates/
Apparently there was some shake-up in The Great White North with C2C affiliates. Not sure the reason; format changes, pricing changes, ratings problems, or what.

Roundhouse radio in Vancouver is a cable radio station only (also available on the internet.) 

I'd like to say CKNW stopped airing Coast to Coast because the ratings were so poor, but this is what happened:
CKNW is having to come up with new programming to replace their current overnight offering, “Coast to Coast AM’ with George Noory, which has long been the allnight show of choice on North American talk radio stations.

The current contract is about to run out, with the subsidiary of Bell Media that controls the Canadian rights to the show.   Bell has decided not to offer to renew on NW, a Corus property, thus forcing the station and its talk radio sister stations across the country to come up with a Canadian-based alternative.

I guess you're used to living in Russia where your favorite leaders don't have to deal with criticism.  Still, you have your job as a disinformation agent at the FSB.

No, I just know a commie disrupter when I see one. Moore doesn't want a strong economy. That's not why he's doing this, you idiot. It's an obvious publicity stunt. I have a book of his on my shelf from 20 years ago where he complains that with all the corruption and evil in the country (Bubba was pres at the time) the Dow was about to break 10,000. 

How do you know he hasn't decided to become one of those corrupt and evil people himself?  Like the saying goes: "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em."

Quote from: Dr. MD MD on January 07, 2018, 12:16:38 PM
He really doesn't sound like he's doing it for the job creation and I highly doubt his venture will be a big job creator, if it even gets off the ground.

However, by all means, I recommend that you open a business there and make your politics a prominent part of it. I look forward to hearing about your first quarterly report. 

Oh, trying to judge the intent of a job creator?  What are you, a commie?

First of all Trump did not rescind any laws.
Second, you need to actually read details instead of relying on CNN clickbait headlines.

The companies involved with the Deepwater Horizon sure paid an awful lot of billions in penalties which all existed prior to Obama even being elected.

These are regulations, not laws (I suspect you may be playing word games here), and, no, they haven't been rescinded yet:
http://www.cbc.ca/news/business/trump-offshore-oil-drilling-1.4473281

If they were laws, executives at BP might have gone to jail, which is what should have happened, in addition to fines.

Quote from: Dr. MD MD on January 07, 2018, 12:08:30 PM
If they don't like them.

Yes, but job creators have no way of knowing in advance which ones of them would be treated that way and which ones wouldn't.  So, the net effect would be to stop all job creators setting up businesses in the deep south. 

Quote from: Dr. MD MD on January 07, 2018, 12:05:27 PM
I think he may be underestimating the red neck contingency in Florida. People often do for some reason but it's the deep South. You can't go any deeper. The residents there will probably feed him to the gators.

Is that how people in the deep south treat job creators?

If I buy a boat with my tax savings and name it 136 or 142, will that trigger the authorities in any way?

Only if the authorities are concerned with you going into the water in an imaginary boat.


Of course, I'm sure you could afford to buy a rubber dinghy: https://tinyurl.com/y93qe2f2
You don't need an imaginary tax cut for that.

Quote from: PB the Deplorable on January 07, 2018, 11:52:41 AM
Interesting.  I thought maybe you woud be since you've posted multiple times on the subject.

I'm not, but thanks for admitting you made the whole thing up. (Or cut and pasted the original story, and since lied about it.)

Quote from: PB the Deplorable on January 07, 2018, 11:49:06 AM
Oh shit you crack me up.  I've known my tax guy since college, we're pretty good friends if that helps

If not, try googling the story on-line.  Doubt you'll find it on ''some cornball right wing site''

I'm really not interested in your imaginary friends, hopeless retard.

Quote from: PB the Deplorable on January 07, 2018, 11:41:47 AM
Thanks for the update, I guess.

Like I said, we don't judge here at Bellgab

People here judge you all the time.  Most people here agree with me that you're a 'hopeless retard.'

Quote from: Yorkshire pud on January 07, 2018, 11:44:22 AM

Such as the offshore oil drilling ones that were introduced for oil rig workers after the oil disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. Trump has just rescinded most of those. He's also wanting inshore oil drilling around the entire coastline..Yep, including off San Francisco.

Nope, they really do let us have sharp objects here on the outside - pens, pencils, nail clippers, forks and knives, you name it.  Just like on TV

I think this can be taken as an admission that you made the story up, hopeless retard.  More likely though and I don't know whether the story itself is true or not, though I suspect not,  is that you read the story on some cornball right wing site, cut and pasted it here and attributed it to yourself.

That would be consistent with:
1.Your complete lack of ethics
2.Your lame sense of humor (especially your apparent enjoyment of humor completely lacking in originality)
3.Your inability to think (not realizing that the story was very unlikely to be true in California.  I'll take you at your word that you really do live in California.)

Quote from: Dr. MD MD on January 07, 2018, 10:36:16 AM
Dude, you're going from low gear to no gear. 

I was just stating a fact.

Quote from: PB the Deplorable on January 07, 2018, 10:31:56 AM
Yes, that's what Sacramento is.  The home of the gloriously bloated Californai state government.  Go look at population figures over the past couple of decades, and compare that to the growth in California state expenditures.  All those newer residents either work directly for government, or work in companies that supply them, feed them, report on their doings, etc.

Please tell me about all the ''aerospace/space industry/scientific research'' being done in Sacramento. 


Pud, if we continue working on it, we are going to get this capitalism thing down.  You can get this

No company is going to do something because that's what the president does.  They are going to do what they think is in their self interest.  If we reduce the impact of dumb regulations, reduce the tax differential, do away with anti-competitive and costly employment laws, and redo lousy trade agreements, companies will have an incentive to stay.  Not a one of them left for a low cost manufacturing country because Donald Trump did.


I inluded Hilary as another recent example of what those same people you referred to who sneer at Trump wanted.  Putting aside the dishonesty, the incompetence, and the corruption, she's been the wife of a governor, First Lady, a US Senator, and a Secretary of State.  And has zero accomplishments.  That's who those people wanted instead of Trump.

So, again, forgive me if I don't take them seriously.


As for Trump and his acomplishments - you really an't think of anything before he because president, or over the past year?  Nothing comes to mind at all?  Lol

This post was written by a somewhat inebriated person.

Because the Fake News Media played up the capping of the deduction of various state taxes, specifically property taxes and state income taxes.

Of course that's what the average person here who actually works and pays taxes is going to focus on - it's the narrative the pretend journalists have put out there.  So, duh, the House Republicans from Cali have to play politics on the issue.  The truth is, it's a good bill for everyone.  Everyone except Democrat officials who are out of power and - as we have seen over the past year - will say and do anything to get it back

Is it?  Show me the calculations on your tax savings then.

3% economic growth, soon to be 4%. Dow 25000. Record unemployment, record stock market, record economic growth, and Asta La Vista Obamacare and it’s $3,000mo premiums for the tin foil hat plan.


2018 is already booming!

Odd, when Obama was President, all the Republicans said there were '95 million Americans unemployed.'  In 2017, the economy created approx 2 million jobs.  How can the economy now be booming when there are still 93 million unemployed Americans?

Knock yourself out cupcake

https://www.cnn.com/2018/01/03/politics/2018-senate-race-rankings-january/index.html

The top two listed there are the Republican held states I mentioned. 
1.McCaskill in Missouri will be a close race but she has a lot of supporters as well as a lot of detractors.

2.Indiana will be a close race but the article mentions the weakness of the Republican candidates.

3.Manchin is popular in West Virginia.  If Don Blackenship wins the Republican nomination, Manchin would win reelection in a landslide.

4.Heitkamp is popular in North Dakota and nobody expected her to win in 2012.

5.Sherrod Brown is popular in Ohio.  We are now really down to states where the Republicans have at best a 1/3 chance of winning.  Also, the likely Republican nominee State Treasurer Josh Mandel dropped out of the race a few days ago, and the Ohio filing deadline is about 1 month away.

6.The Florida race is the one I wrote about when I noticed that previously article was from 2016. Democrat Bill Nelson is very popular in Florida.  If Republican Rick Scott doesn't challenge him, in a large and diverse state like Florida there isn't really another Republican with a high profile who could challenge Nelson all that seriously (not without spending $10s of millions anyway.)  Scott is a governor with middling popularity (elected and reelected in the Republican wave years of 2010 and 2014 with 51% of the vote) who has received a likely temporary boost to his popularity with his handling of the hurricane.  Trump's decision to allow offshore drilling off the Florida coast also makes it less likely Scott, or any other potential top tier Republican candidate, will run.

7.Montana is still a relatively elastic state when voting federally and Democrat Jon Tester is popular.

8.Minnesota?  CNN really was desperate to find #10.

Impeached for what?  His haircut?

Ironically enough, impeached (and convicted) for a lot of the same things that Hillary Clinton has been accused of.

You're safe with us.  Here at BellGab, we don't judge

Are you really so lacking in self awareness, hopeless retard, that you don't even realize that 'absurd level of partisanship and complete lack of perspective' applies by far the most on this board to you? 

Of course, rather than 'complete lack of perspective' I think 'unhinged' describes you much better.

Quote from: GravitySucks on January 06, 2018, 04:42:41 PM
Now Glynis, I must extend warmest welcome and wishes for your continued health in this new year.

Did you notice the liberal news publication that ranked the top 10 senate elections at risk of “flipping” in the 2018 election?  Most of them are currently held by democrats.

Not sure if the GOP won’t end up with a super majority, but it is not out of the question either.

http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/306210-10-senate-seats-that-could-flip-in-2018

This article is from November 2016, so it's well out of date.  The top two right now that are by far the likeliest to flip are both held by Republicans:  The Arizona Senate district held by retiring Jeff Flake, and the Nevada district held by Dean Heller.  If John McCain steps down from the U.S Senate before the 2018 elections, his U.S Senate seat would likely go right to #3.

I was writing up responses to each of the U.S Senate races held by Democrats listed there, because I initially mistakenly thought this article was written in November 2017, when I noticed it mentioned 'Congressman Ryan Zinke.' With an article this out of date, it's not even worth commenting on.  I guess being in Russia you aren't aware that Zinke isn't even a member of Congress any more.  You should ask your comrades at the FSB to keep you more informed.

Quote from: Kidnostad3 on January 06, 2018, 04:30:53 PM
We were given the same sort of cocky assurances that Hilliary couldn’t lose the election yet after a 1.6 billion dollar campaign against a fraction of that spent by Trump she’s now occupying her time making excuses for her loss.  The Clintons no longer have anything to offer anyone and in case you’ve been unconscious for the last year or so the Ds are trampling each other putting distance between themselves and Clintons. 

It’s a much different day and time in this country and Americans are in no mood for another glossing over of Clinton culpability.  Four different “matters” involving Hilliary are under investigation and there is a mountain of evidence against her in each case.  Do you really think that Americans will go along with another whitewash and accept the idea that there are laws that they must obey from which the rich and privileged are exempt.  The outrage would be enormous and beyond the Governments ability to control as would the legal implications in that a decision not to indict would seriously impair the government’s ability to prosecute any similar cases for decades.

She will most certainly be indicted and probably be convicted of something.  Whether she is penalized in proportion to her crimes is the question.

Absolutely correct. And this is why if the Congressional Republicans haven't impeached and convicted Trump by the time of the 2018 midterms, they will be punished severely by the voters.
