What are you talking about?
Maple syrup, hockey, car parts and better healthcare outcomes than the US at 45% of the cost. What have they done?

NO surprise considering that Canada elected Castro's son...
Haha, there's debate about that, Margeret Trudeau was doing Ronnie Wood from the Rolling Stones at about the time Justin was conceived. Could be Ronnies offspring instead of Fidels.

Ok, so what happens when you are working with a gender fluid person, one day they identify as a male and you refer to him as 'he', two days later he is having an identify as a woman day, you don't know this, coz it is how he is feeling, you refer to him as 'he', coz that was a-ok two days ago. But now you offended him and you are hauled over the coals in a work disciplinary and may be faced with jail time for hate speech? ARE YOU KIDDING??? This insanity needs to be reigned in. All this is going to do is make people avoid talking to gender fluid people in case they inadvertently get the wrong terminology and land themselves in deep doo-doo.
