Why Not Become The 51st State?

- jim Young

Remind me again why I would want to be part of the United States?

This is a list of countries rated by their quality of life.

Canada ranks No. 5. 

The United States didn't even make the Top 10. Hell - they didn't even make the Top 20.

I'll bet Trump isn't going to tell you about THAT!

The U.S. is so far down the list at No. 22 it would take 2 more pages to get to them.

If you want to see for yourself you'll have to check it out at the website US News & World Report

U.S. News is generally considered to have a high "factual" record with very little left bias.

Trump also mistakenly thinks that renaming the “Gulf Of Mexico” as the “Gulf Of America” is somehow going to make people think that the “Gulf Of M...

- jim Young ”When did fact-checking and journalism go their separate ways?” - Jon Stewart This… this right here is what’s wrong with the political world today. It’s also what’s wrong with Facebook. Frederick R. Barnard noted that “A picture says a thousand words,” but unfortunately we don’t always know what those words say. Here is a post that is circulating Facebook today simply because it’s so easy just to click and share anything that supports our views no matter how inaccurate or misleading the information may be. Shown in the photo is a picture of Pierre Poilievre with Jeremy MacKenzie, the founder of the group Diagolon. The photo and the accompanying text, questions Poilievre’s capabilities as a leader based on this photo.  It certainly looks like Pierre and Jeremy are best buds and it certainly looks like they are supporting each other on some issue but there is no indication whatsoever that may be. Does that give one the right to make an assumption that Poilievre support...
