Don't we all have our own little idioms and idiosyncrasies?

I Have had good friends serve in "stan" for the freedoms we enjoy in this country. Im sure many others have as well. For AJL to compare Canada to the middle east basically every chance he can (aka every post) is a spit in the face to all of them.

I will let him defend himself against that charge.

Here's another one I used quite a bit....

"Take care"

There's a lot of Stan's out there.


Afganistant doesn't even come to mind.


Different world views I guess.

Theres not that many - "istan"'s out there, and we all know exactly which one hes tying it to.

Its straight up naïve to ignore the negative connotation hes trying to make every time he posts. I for one don't appreciate that disrespect towards my country.

Afghanistan
Kazakhstan
Kyrgyzstan
Pakistan
Tajikistan
Turkmenistan
Uzbekistan


I don't want to speak for others... But I highly doubt he's talking Afganistan.


Personally i hear Stan and think Kazakhstan... Because that's the only one my family has any history with.

You forgot Azerbaijan!

all middle east 'shit hole' countries compared to Canada.

My point stands.

Azerbaijan is named after Atropates. A ruler from the days of Alexander the Great.


It isn't a "Stan".


The root "Stan" is Persian and means "place of".



Further... You're mad because somebody connotates Canada with one of these countries... Yet you denegrate millions of people and tell them they live in a "shithole"


Some of these countries, like Kazakhstan (which isn't actually in the middle East by the way) are besting us at infrastructure marketing and grain sales...


Not to mention they aren't on the

https://www.google.ca/amp/business.financialpost.com/news/economy/china-banking-crisis-warning-signal-still-flashing-bis-says-1/amp watch list of top 3 countries whose banking system may fail.

All I'm saying is people who live in glass hoses shouldn't cast stones...

We need to be aware of our reality here, or all our forefathers fought for will disappear.

I guess im just too patriotic.

Im sure youd like hearing the term "argentinistan" being thrown around on these forums daily.

I have no problem calling shitholes shitholes.

I do have a problem with people insinuating Canada is one.

[TSIPP]

Canada is definitely not a shithole country but if the current government and the UN have their way it will be, better keep your friends at home we are going to need them someday.

This. I am what I can which granted isn't much, to oppose everything that our countries leaders are doing because we will become a shit hole otherwise. This includes carbon taxes, islamification, gun owner harrassment, race and gender politics, and the list goes on and on. We are not that far from one as our economy disappears Could always count on energy revenue to paper over bad policy in the past but those days are over. It is already too far gone for a radical change in direction, so too little, too late.
