Glengarry Glen Christmas: Elf Motivation - SNL
Briguy1960Just what the hell is their problem with us watching clips that Americans can watch?
I find it odd with all the Canadian talent that used to be on that show ...
Most likely afraid Canadians would lampoon them mercilessly if given more of a chance maybe?
Robbery Stopped With Swords
MordhausIt’s very important to note that drawing direct parallels between countries when it comes to crime is very murky, as these difference could be due to differences in laws, the way the criminal justice system is set up, how policing is done, how crimes are reported, and much more.
Quoting this: Harold Pollack, co-director of the University of Chicago's Crime Lab, called Zimring and Hawkins's book "an excellent source." In a 2015 phone interview, he pointed to a number of more recent studies that fit the pattern it identified.
"There's no question the United States faces a number of distinctive social policy challenges, some of which affect the crime rate. But many other OECD countries face their own distinctive problems that affect their crime rate," he told me. Western Europe, for example, has a major problem with drug use. Canadian cities have "very high" rates of property crime like car theft. And yet, the US still stands out on murders.
"I think that Americans have this view of Western Europe, or Toronto for that matter, which is very stereotypical and doesn't take into account the challenges that many of peer industrial democracy problems face," he points out. "There's a lot of drug sale, a lot of ethnic stratification and conflict, there's a lot of just general crime."
Crime rates in Canada aren't that much lower than the USA, there are just fewer violent crimes, like homicides.
In addition to this, a major factor might be considered in regards to Canada. Population and population density. Canada is lower than the USA across the board, 36.71 million to 325.7 million and density of 3.9 people per km to almost 90 people per mile (last census data).
I don't support the NRA, btw. I think they are idiots. I do support logical gun laws. I don't care for fake news.
I also think I was civil in my response to your original comment. I have tried to remain that way even though one could classify your response to mine as hostile and provocatory.
Oh yeah, thanks, that totally explains why gun violence, violent crime, and non-violent crime are all way higher in Canada than the US.
Oh, no... did I get that backwards? I guess all your gibberish just doesn't play out in the real world, huh?
TWICE in recent weeks, the NRA's wet-dream-come-true, the "good guy with a gun" was on the scene and got shot and killed BY THE POLICE because they saw a guy with a gun and just shot. That's a pretty big fucking hole in your theory, isn't it? I mean aside from the fact that reality simply doesn't jibe with your theory.
But I guess you'll go do what your type always does when a theory doesn't match the real world. Call "Fake News!" and pretend you're right no matter what happens.

The ground looks like it's breathing
RFlaggRoots just under the cover of the moss, add high speed winds...
Weather Channel had a short story about it: https://weather.com/news/trending/video/creepy-canadian-forest-appears-to-be-breathing-whats-really-at-play/
Forbes (not exactly a bastion of science to be sure) also suggests that the storm had made the ground wet, which reduced the soil's cohesion adding to the effect: https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidbressan/2018/10/21/the-ground-looks-like-its-breathing-in-this-video
TED Talk: Whitopia
Digitalfiend jokingly says...Yay another thing to feel guilty about!
I'm going to have to really keep on my toes to ensure I'm not living in a Whitopia so that I'm not accidentally labelled a racist or white separatist.
I'm unsure what to make of this video, to be honest. Did this person poll the residents of each host town to determine why the moved there? Is the town mostly white because white people simply just want to only see white faces? Is it because they want to live amongst people that share similar cultural values, ideals, and belief systems? Is it just pure co-incidence? He sort of touched on that at one point in the presentation but then went back to suggesting it's bad to want security, a sense of community, etc ... if you're white.
I still don't understand what is inherently bad here; I guess I'm confused about the message. From what he told us, he was treated extremely well by the residents he interacted with. Is this a bad thing now? In my opinion, like-cultures seem to segregate themselves. For instance, in Canada we have portions of major city centres (even entire cities themselves) where the majority of the population is Chinese or Indian or Middle-Eastern or African Canadian. I think this would hold true for the US as well. Does this automatically make the people of those communities racist, just because they co-located with each other or does that only apply to white people?
Lastly, was most of the audience high? I couldn't figure out what they were laughing at half the time.

Notice no one has guns? I am surprised and happy that Canadian gun control works.
Officer talks to kids about flashing realistic BB gun
mentalityAgree. Compare that to the Canadian cop who showed good judgement and restraint dealing with the Toronto van killer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUY9bytwCZs
Not killing a few kids is a pretty low bar for officers to be setting.
Look, I’m sure the guy is a good dude, but is not shooting a child really considered a high bar for policing in the US now?
‘Cos that is what I would consider the baseline of human decency and critical thinking.
Ted Cruz loves White Castle
cloudballoon says...My sentiment exactly. I'm Canadian and I've never seen a White Castle anywhere near me.
White Castle was a real letdown. I've lived on the west coast my whole life and had only heard about them, then about 10 years ago I had a chance to go to Atlanta for my job. After picking up the rental, I was headed to the hotel when I saw a White Castle. "Hell yeah", I thought. I finally get to try a Harold and Kumar burger. So I get a slider combo and...... yeah, they wern't very good. Turns out I don't like steamed hamburger.
Tim Hortons Sponsors a Hockey Team from Kenya
SagemindNot sure this can be tagged as "Canadian" as Tim Hortons is not even Canadian any more - they were bought out and are owned by Burger King, which is a US company.
