Just Not ready

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Holy fuck how much longer are these idiots calling the shots? Isn't it like a year and a half?

How much more irreversible damage can they do in 18 months?

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

They slaughter the poor mortgages in an inhumane manner. They suffer horribly

I'm not sure. The quick dive I did said that they are often more expensive than traditional mortgages. Instead of interest the lender purchases the house and then re-sells it to the jihadist for a mark-up that is often more than what one would pay with a traditional mortgage. It's just not worded as interest to satisfy their sacred scrolls.

Similar in vein to the Shabbat elevator, lol. As Doc would say, it's fucky.

It is good humour along with good policy and the irony is that to regulate, they will have to compare the added cost to the cost of market interest rates to determine if the amounts are usury.

Yeah, not referring to people on this board. It's more of the posters on X who are calling this pandering to Muslims. It's no more pandering then giving the disabled wheelchair access.

And yes, ironic. They end up with payments more usurious than what their laws direct them to avoid. Letter of the law vs spirit of the law. The devolution of religion.

Links are starting to form between GC Strategies and Christia Freeland's office. The connection appears to be under RCMP investgation and is now the convenient, though legitimate excuse for no one talking.

Well seasoned old time reporter runs a story that Dominic Le Blanc is starting to campaign to replace Trudeau as Liberal leader. Some pundits are even putting the source for the story close to Trudeau as this may be his chosen one.

More and more stories of Trudeau resigning after this session of the house or over the summer break if the budget doesn't give the Liberals the much needed boost they crave.

LeBlanc quoted as just the opposite.
