It's a security issue: Where was the only legitimate terroristic bombing threat since 9/11 from? The CANADIAN border. You see Canada has way more Muslims than Mexico.

Circus denies its use of animals is ‘cruel’
They have refused to respond to us and they don't see anything wrong with using animals, but it is cruel and unnecessary," he said.

"At the end of day, when people have left to go home, the animals will be locked away in cages." He called on people to boycott the circus and demonstrate outside it to persuade others to do the same, encouraging people to choose "human circuses" instead. Steve Norman, animal rights spokesman for Barnet Green Party said: "The shopping centre should not be promoting it and should have their own business ethics, which should include points against animal circuses. "It is an outdated and antiquated form of entertainment."

Are Canada's athletes receiving enough funding?
Who are you to deny these amateur athletes whose talents are in being able to cross country ski incredibly well, or ride a sled down a bobsleigh run faster than everyone else in the world, an income. What makes your dead-end job worth an annual salary while these people who pour 100 times the effort into their chosen sport get nothing? If you're posting on here you obviously have an interest in sport and want to see Canada do well on the international stage. Please leave out comments on how we shouldn't be spending money on athletes when Africa is going hungry, because that is not the issue here. Support our amateur athletes because they aren't the Toronto Maple Leafs, who get paid in the millions and can't perform. Support our athletes like Devon Kershaw who has been supported by his parents as well as having a job and receiving limited government carding to cross country ski as the best male in the country.
