    Men cleverer than women, say scientists

    From the article cited in the OP: "...men are more likely than women to win Nobel prizes and gain academic distinction because they are more intelligent." http://www.theherald.co.uk/news/45664-print.shtml I can't wait to read this article and check whether the researcher took into account all...

    How Far Will Army Recruiters Go?

    May 2, 2005 Seventeen-year-old high school journalist and honor student David McSwane is just what Army recruiters are looking for, but he suspected they might be lowering their standards. "I wanted to see how far the army would go during a war to get one more soldier," McSwane said...

    England pleads guilty to Abu Ghraib abuse case

    I find it quite disturbing that her superiors got off the hook so easily.

    Canadian Study Say Parents Give Ugly Children Less Attention

    What this study showed was that ugly children are treated differently because of a physical feature, just like women and visible minorities. I read an article once about how an ugly person can be less likely to get a job than a more attractive one, even if they have better qualifications. The...

    Montrealers Raise Your Voice!

    It's a very multi-cultural city, and it is pretty much bilingual. Québec is a French province, but almost every French-speaking person in Montréal also speaks at least a bit of English, and the English-speaking population is quite big in the city. So you have the two founding people of Canada...

    Man going to try and stop government funded abortions!

    The fact that some people are richer than others IS inequality. Here is a definition of inequality: in·e·qual·i·ty n. pl. in·e·qual·i·ties The condition of being unequal. An instance of being unequal. Lack of equality, as of opportunity, treatment, or status. Social or economic...

    Man going to try and stop government funded abortions!

    I totally disagree with this man's action. Stopping to fund abortion means yet another sources of inequality in our society. The poor won't be able to afford them, but that won't stop them from getting abortions. They will try to do it themselves or turn to cheaper, clandestine abortions. Either...

    I certainly hope this isn't indicative of all their opinions.

    As a French-speaking Canadian, I thought it was quite entertaining! :D You can't take any of what they say seriously. Elle est complètement folle cette Ann Coulter!!! (This Ann Coulter lady is completely nuts!!!):P

    Does Quebec deserve its bad rap?

    In Québec, French is the only official language. That being said, if I understand your point, what you are saying is that there should not be fines involved when a business does not respect bill 101. However, I wonder how you can make them respect the law without consequences for breaking it? It...

    Does Quebec deserve its bad rap?

    I would have to disagree...I was in France twice and had no problem being understood by the French (except for one snobby waiter in a Paris restaurant). As for the OP, well as a Québécoise I would say that we do not deserve this bad reputation. As Victrixa said, it is a fact that our language is...

    Bush smarter than Me and Kerry.

    Experts don't even agree on a definition of intelligence, which is why IQ tests are so controversial. If there is a disagreement about the definition of intelligence, we can then wonder what IQ tests measure. When you look at the history of IQ tests, you will find the answer is easy: they...

    Was there a better way to spend 144 billion dollars?

    This would be likely to result in more desperation, hate, desire for revenge and terrorism. Among other things, in order for terrorism to stop, the would-be-terrorists have to put more value on their lives than they do on their death. When you have no hope and no pride left and someone makes you...

    Canadian Liberal For Bush!!

    What Kerry ignores, though, is that Ontario is the dumping ground for much American toxic waste, which is shipped to a Sarnia disposal site. It's all good. We stop sending our trash to the US, the US stops sending its toxic waste here. Good deal.
