Our constitutional convention will be a place where we determine which issues are most central that they deserve mention in our founding document.

Idiots - the damage is done. Most middle class workers have ALREADY been priced out of the TO and Vancouver markets and that's now spreading to surrounding communities. At this point, the only thing taxing more of the capital gains on the sale of a house will do is generate more revenue for the government to squander.

Then Black Lives Matter by Al Sharpton was formed based on this lie and marched chanting \"Fry 'em like bacon. Put the pigs in a blanket. What do we want now? Dead cops!\" While the Black racists got there way.

I even provided a link that explains how it was brought up numerous times before Reid ever got to the Senate in '87. How is it possible for Reid to \"resurrect it\" if it was used regularly before he came along? If you weren't such a partisan hack you would have avoided looking like a willful idiot. All it would have taken is maybe a minute to read through the facts you were just provided but that would require you to exercise even the smallest mote of skepticism in your own self-righteousness." ]
