How pathetic.

What is the point of keeping a self admitted troll around? CP has rules against trolls. He's just admitted he is not actually debating from an honest position. Just for the lulz. This is the definition of trolling. Stop the insanity, please.

Everyone would be banned if rules 2, 3 and 4 were actually enforced.

peter being peter again? Quelle surprise.

For me, he’s one of the best posters on the site. It’s not that I agree with him, because we just don’t see things the same. But, he gives a good argument, makes good points and seems fairly genuine as someone who just likes to argue. I can get behind that! I have good friends of mine where we argue and disagree with everything, and then just drop it and go for a beer with no hard feelings. I get the impression that’s how it is with Peter, and to me that’s how these debates and discussions should be.

Entertainment mostly. His troll game has totally fallen off, way too much try hard/obvious stuff that self implodes super fast, whereas before he had a good subtle nuance that could get him days of attention.

You just have to let him run around and ask everyone about kisses until he tires himself out. I think he’s run the gamut from Canadian politics to Israel to trans issues over the last 48 hours. He’s just trying to find something that sticks.

He really is a lot of fun when he’s not over the top. He’s also a pretty genuinely nice person from the low key interactions we’ve shared over the years.

But half the folks I really enjoy here seem to just fight with each other lol.

MMF is great, too. People get so stuck up about pointless things.

I like to see all sides of something and I’m attracted to controversy like a moth.

Haven’t you ever argued for the pleasure of it? I was at a work dinner and started an argument over which month was the worst. Everyone had a great time.

Edit: also Slava, inject that post into my veins, thanks

[peter12]

Also, will do better, Pepsi. Sad to hear I’ve fallen off of late. To be fair, I’m also quite sincere when I make an argument!

November is the worst month. End of fishing season. End of DST. No holidays.

Exactly. That's why it's great to have a down month before The Busy Times.

MLA Sturko accuses NDP of failing to disclose first nations title claims over private property

Independent MLA for Surrey-Cloverdale, Elenore Sturko, is publicly challenging Premier David Eby and the NDP government to immediately provide full transparency regarding all Notices of Civil Claim filed against the province by First Nations seeking Aboriginal title, particularly those impacting existing private property.

She pointed specifically to the government’s response to a claim filed by the Secwepemc Nation, noting that the claim “seeks a declaration of Aboriginal title to all or part of the Territory, which Territory includes the City of Kamloops, a number of other municipalities, Sun Peaks Resort, roads, railways, privately owned tenures of many types, including fee simple grants, mineral tenures, and many other Crown granted interests.”

Worst month? Now there is a pointless argument bound to get heated that I can totally get behind. Count me in
