Resigns after allegations. I guess due process isn’t a human right.

Oh please. It’s like children accessories. Everyone is doing it.

Hundreds of millions of corporate dollars behind the the current 'race issue'... Donors make demands on the professional class comrades. Soviets rejected Aryan race theory that made a hierarchy of former Roman colonies. Soviets had no former Roman colonies... All serfs were equal

They don’t practice what they preach.

This is becoming comical, almost Monty Python like, with the penitent men prostrating themselves before the Inquisition. It would be funny if it wasn't so damn dangerous

Ok let's do Mr Butts racist and sexist twitter post ..I dare you. O right librails will refund you cause your on there payroll

Of course he did...lol

Whaat

Is this a textbook definition of ultimate irony? Just askin'.

Not really sure why this monument to someone's ego is still in business. I guess to show that Canada is so weak, but is still a moral superpower.

Pfffft who cares, as if I’d waste my time going to see this stupid thing.

Should I laugh or cry? Meanwhile that is one ugly-ass building.
