The US also backed genocide in East Pakistan (Bangladesh) in 1971.

It is a bit silly to argue over which country is slightly less racist in 2021. The one founded on white supremacy in 1776 or the one founded on white supremacy in 1867?

I made a similar post elsewhere but I’ll post this here as well:

I seem to recall that Pickett was generally regarded as at least a competent brigade commander but was out of his depth commanding a division.

As a Canadian, this is something I’ve always found baffling. Right now FB, IG, etc are all full of posts from people wishing everyone a happy Memorial Day while lounging on the beach in their stars and stripes swimsuits and there are ads everywhere you look for Memorial Day sales.

Reminds me of tourists who think they’re going to Sydney, Australia and instead end up in Sydney, Nova Scotia.

How did you list all those other incidents without including the Tim Horton’s Poop Thrower?

I was just thinking that Justin Trudeau is a practicing Catholic and is probably at least as pro-choice, if not more so, than Biden (he’s made it mandatory that all Liberal MPs must always vote pro-choice in any vote in the Commons) but I don’t think I’ve heard a peep from the church on the matter.

You are. The church doesn’t care about child sexual abuse whether it’s from clergy or someone else.

I’m sure this Olympic gold medal winner who is currently in hospital suffering from COVID and needing oxygen is relieved to know that since he’s “healthy” he doesn’t need to get vaccinated.

It wasn’t dumb, it was deliberate.

“received pushback claiming that the network may not be able to find actors of color in Canada”

The Chinese government did basically the same thing to Canada yesterday, responding to criticism of its human rights record with “Yeah, well, what about your treatment of indigenous people?”

It’s not shown, but Sam tells Nat and Steve that what he needs is being held in a military base.  The next time we see him he has the suit so presumably they broke into the base and stole it.

But elected from amongst the sultans of the ethnically Malay states, which are hereditary positions.

Except it is by choice.  The UK isn’t forcing Canada to be a monarchy.  We have the power to amend the constitution to abolish the monarchy if we choose.  So far we have chosen not to bother.

Oprah said that Harry told her (off camera) that it wasn’t Philip or the Queen.

Similarly, the fin flash used by the RCAF before the adoption of the current flag in 1965.

Nice. Scroll down a little ways and you can even find the above mention Richard Michetti.

It’s like when you were little and you asked your parents why there’s a Mother’s Day and a Father’s Day but no Kid’s Day and they respond by telling you that every day is Kid’s Day.
