Judge calls aspects of involuntary care 'unconstitutional'

Taxing us all to death and forcing us to fund everything under the sun should be “unconstitutional”…

Conservatives call for change in mill closure's wake

Unfortunately all these "calls for action " amount to photo ops and grand standing. Nothing gets done and politicians aren't bothered. Their income doesnt change, their way of life stays the same. Time and time again nothing gets done unless the person at top stands to gain something from it. None of the politicians really have accountability or suffer from their provincial decline. Maybe politicians wages and income should be directly tied to their provincial and federal GDP growth. Same with inflation. The worse the economy gets the more they suffer as well.

And what would you have? How do you negotiate in good faith with someone the likes of what they have down south? Or would you just simply get a deal done no matter how bad it was for most of Canada as long as the big voter base is convinced you are doing something good? Even though I am conservative and voted conservative, I believe we have the right guy at the helm in this political climate we find ourselves in. And don't be naive if you think it was all because of the orange guys dislike of the former Prime Minister.

My question is why are you guys suddenly coming out of the woodwork now? We needed help 10 years ago and all we got were empty promises and words that did nothing. It seems like every time a mill closure happens nothing is said or done until after the fact. Then we get help needed for retraining or schooling.It would be nice if you guys actually spoke up before mill closures are announced. Even though you’re the official opposition party you carry some clout yet generally speaking all we get is silence until it’s too late.It’s true I heavy dislike the NDP as they have done little to help this province other than mire it in red tape but you as the opposition sat pretty quietly as we sink into oblivion. Is it any wonder why we rarely listen to politicians as we hear a lot of words but little action. Be proactive for a change.

There must be an election coming up.They do this every time.We vote for them again and again with the same results. Always blaming the other party, always during an election. We vote for them again and nothing changes. If our leaders can't admit when they are wrong, they will just keep making the same mistakes. This town has been like this since the 80's, that I've noticed. Some of us made a lot of money selling off the resources instead of processing, selling off our businesses to our competitors and watching them close our mills one by one.But some of you gained a lot of wealth, while your community suffered. It's time for a change, if we want to keep this town alive.

Respectfully Mr.Zimmer, I would like to know when and where Prime Minister Mark Carney made the statement, (‘promised’) and I quote from the article “Donald Trump’s the problem and I’m going to be the solution.” ?

Prince George MLA says she was asked to step aside for new party leader

Not to chuck an old fact into this, but Shirley Bond was really railroaded out of that ridding by Kevin Falcon actions. I thought Shirley did an amazing work in the area for many years.

what a pile of doofuses making this decision - why even risk the stupidity of people when the fire fighting is spread so thin down south? My god, it's as if they want the fires, maybe the conspiracy wingnuts are right ?

Beer, cider, wine will soon flow across provincial borders

There shouldn't be any intraprovincial trade barriers.

Liquor causes many cancers along with other negative health issues which cause social & financial harms. Alcohol also plays a large factor in violent crime. Yes, it should be legal as prohibition would magnify the problems much like what occurs with illegal drugs. Just don’t ask me to care about the liquor business. The constant positive spin the chamber of commerce types put on the alcohol industry grows rather tiresome. “They have the ability to ship it right to their door.” Whoopee!

Judge calls aspects of involuntary care 'unconstitutional'

You know what a violates my rights and freedoms is having my family put at risk by these people when they break into my house. When I try to go shopping and get jumped by these drug crazed low life's puts my right to safety at risk. Having to constantly fork out money to pay and house these people violated my freedoms. Just cut off the welfare and all support to these people and let the chips fall where they may. Most people are sick and tired of warm and fuzzy approach by the Liberal and NDP enablers. Starvation is a great motivator.
