    An exhaustive list for sure.
    Funny still is how far down the list China is when it is the origin of the virus.
    Hard to believe the country with so many people crammed in some cities, and their sanitization is
    sketchy in a lot of areas, that they are able to keep their numbers so low.

    I don't believe it.

    Glad to hear it.
    A doctor I used to work with was infected with it and she is now dead.

    Quebec has had a big problem with ethnic groups like Hasidics, who do not provide information, refuse entry to their compounds,
    mingle in public, and seem oblivious to their role in spreading the disease. I understand that upstate NY has a similar issue.

    It doesn't need fixed. I have no problem with the CBC or it's reporting. The problem is with the ultra-right wing idiots who keep whining about it. I'm all in favour of having them fixed.

    The CBC falsely claim to be a 'public broadcaster' - they are not. They are funded by all of us, but they speak only for Liberal Party voters. Everyone else is a far-right terrorist who needs to suffer a painful death - and twice if you were born white and male.

    The CBC does not present factual news - it spreads an ideology. They do not announce anything - they lecture to an audience.

    Their announcers all seem to be from 'journalism school' (a saying for those 'colleges' that you see delivering classes out of a bus parked at the mall.)

    And their graduates are guaranteed a successful career - because after all, all they have to do is fool liberals.

    This dope's name is really Peter Mansbridge - but those first few letters of his surname were apparently only there for decoration :

    You're entitled to your opinion Gadget.

    Why don't you post some articles from your preferred neo-Nazi white supremacist publications so you can enlighten us?

    Oh, and I disagree about putting all the Bible thumping Conservative Party supporters to death. It's not necessary, exiling the lot of them back to Alberta where they came from will suffice. :)

    Can any other moderator tell me if it's possible for members to add a moderator to their "ignore list"?
