UCP immediately chopped the wildfire prevention budget by $15,000,000 and got rid of the elite rappel wildfire team.



Interesting that I have never seen a post like this on any of the threads that baselessly slander with garbage sources any political party that isn’t the UCP/federal Conservatives.

I would think that site ownership would prefer their moderator team to remain politically unbiased when acting in their respective authority, but you may know better than I.
You're dreaming, Jstubbs. The AO is magazine with a particular editorial bent. And they are perfectly within their rights to do so. Any semblance of moderate balance went out the window when Trudeau was elected. The hate for anything Liberal and Trudeau runs so deep, with guns laws as square one, the lightsabers here are permanently red.

I don't expect the mod team to be unbiased; the point of this thread is to see whether they actually believe in freedom of expression. Which makes Trochu's response all that more comedic. I suppose they get to decide what they think is "fluff" and "half truths" (ironic) but we'll certainly see if they live up to their principles.

Cause the list ain't done yet.

The cherry on top is... just like Smokinyotes advised...people can always ignore or scroll by. And yeah, for sure, I am trying to stir the pot.
To make a scintillating point.
