Even though many of the refugees were originally settled in rural areas most have left to join ethnic ghettos in a few of Canada's large cities.

I have always heard that Canada is more of a salad than a melting pot in that way. For now it seems to not be a problem, but giove that time. Balkanized nations do not thrive.

New trailer released. Liam Neeson in Cold Pursuit a Feb 9th release of a remake of a Norwegian film about a snow plow driver whose son overdoses on drugs and is rebuffed by authorities with the usual 'all parents say their kids don't do drugs'. Film develops into a battle of a local drug gang, an imported drug gang and Liam Neeson.
I look forward to seeing it. Wonder why the long lead time for trailer release though.

Kind of interesting how Liam Neeson developed into an action hero in many recent movies
He does the role very well. I really liked the action scenes in Taken

So did I. He became popular as an action hero rather late in life but does well.
With a few exceptions Taken was reasonable .

In Cold Pursuit some of his action is as a sniper, so less of an ordeal.

Been puzzling me for three days: How can Port Adelaide football club not know if something is lewd or not. Either a player in trouble or he is not.

How stupid is Trump hater Megyn Kelly that
she didn't know putting on blackface and
going out in public is extremely offensive
to Black people. How totally ignorant do
you have to be that you don't instinctively
see that as just wrong. How can your head
be so far up your ass that you know nothing
of our racial history and you're in the media.

Bye bye, Megyn..

No rant about hyperactive political correctness?

Likely new leader of Brazil, Jair Bolsanaro will make Trump look left of centre. Bolsonaro is expected to win the run off election. Some of his promises are pull Brazil out of climate change agreements, sell of the Indigenous reserves, and open the Amazon up to farming. Openly against all the visible and religious minorities.

Anybody see the general in charge of the
border op in the press conference? It's
amazing the equipment that's on the
move right now. Heavy equipment,
supplies to build massive tent cities
to hold anybody who asks for asylum.
No more catch and release and them
never showing up at court, There
will be court held right there and 80%
will be shipped back where they came
from.

He went on and on about the operation,
5200 troops is just the start. Will climb
much higher. 22 miles of concetina razor
wire on the way to Texas border, and
that's just a start. This is what that is
if you don't know:
