Why should he? Based on your argument, 47% of Toronto voters are bigots. Etobicoke is bigot center. If the recent polls are correct, the majority of the city are probably bigots. We leave in the city of bigots according to you, so it's only fit to have somebody who according to you is a...

What taxes did he increase?

It's my belief that human activities do change the environment. However, it has to be acknowledged that earth is not a static environment. We know storms were much more fierce at some points in earth history. Our current temperature is far below historical norm and some argue that we are in an...

What do we know about David Miller? Very little as well. However, if I was a progressive voter, I would still vote for him. I think he truly wanted to be progressive just like Rob Ford has no intention to be progressive, barely paying lip services. Funny enough, I didn't vote for Ford on...

No us, both sharks and earth will recover. Isn't that the ultimate goal? :) As I said, banning shark fins would do nothing to prevent the slaughter of sharks. Sharks will continue to be killed. How would that make somebody sleep better is beyond me. If we really want to help sharks, then we...

Are you a shark? How would you know which way to die is better for sharks? I would think being eating alive is probably a lot more nature for sharks than however the fishermen kills them while they grasp for air. And how is "killing the shark after cutting off its fins" humane? If I were a...

I don't want to, I got a life. Plus, even if I wanted to, I would hire an investigator to tail him rather than trust whatever he published. I don't know whether Adam Giambrone published his schedule, but if he did, would he list his mistress in his schedule? I highly doubt it. In the end, I...

I don't think this really comes down to that at all. There are plenty of products that are made from sharks and other fishes. Why ban shark fins? Simple, because people object to the way fins are collected (whether it's a widespread practice is up for debate), not because sharks are killed. If...

Did you keep track of who David Miller was meeting? I didn't, nor do I care. David Miller could be meeting big businesses all day long, as long as his policies are progressive,I still wouldn't have voted for him. And vice versa.

The solution is easy, if drivers wants to remove the bike lane, they should donate the money to do it and if bikers wants to add the bike lane, they should donate the money to do it. One of the groups will give up sooner or later. :D

Unlikely to work if they keep on getting a free meal and then released. A far more effective way (if we really want to deal with it) is to punish anybody who gives money to them. Impound their car on the spot and soon you will have no road beggars or squeegee kids in the city. Then again, I...

There's a Chinese saying, "You are not the fish, how do you know it's happy?" Funny how people like to decide for animals what's the more "humane" way to die. What's next? Let's ban sharks from eating raw fish, that can't be good for them. Let's round up all sharks and make sure they eat cooked...

Why can't we just let the market decide what's best instead of imposing it on the market? There are plenty of accommodations for responsible tenants. And vice versa. Good landlords are favored by tenants whereas bad ones tends to not have a stable income. Let the tenants decide what's "decent...

Unless you are a victim, how can you tell somebody whether they should or should not get offended? And it's not just a matter of getting offended, what if I spread libels about you and cause you harm? Can I defend myself saying I did it in a mere verbal context? What if I falsely (and...

That's a hard argument to make. By the same logic, if you are strong enough, when the street thug notices that you are unfazed by their punches then they're going to become flustered and confused and will probably not only leave you alone, but run from you. If you are strong enough, when the...
