they are adamantly pro Palestine which  to the non-critical thinkers of the world automatically means they support Hamas… they have drawn ire due to their Coachella and Glastonbury performances… and the reason their US tour was cancelled is one of their member is on trial under the UK terrorist act for statement allegedly made.

with all the said there are reports of sexual assault on women in Belfast that has been swept under the rug… believe the women…

I don't approve of this in the slightest, but clearly something the Canadian gov't doesn't care about

now maybe my reading comprehension skillz have abandoned me this fine friday afternoon, but that sentence seems contradictory… if the CND gov't didn't care about the women, they wouldn't have banned them, right? 

or are you saying the CND gov't doesn't care about whether or not you approve - in which case they are correct since nobody cares what you think…

so what I was trying to say..
I in no way endorse or approve of assault was my first point.  but still a report? is that a conviction I don't really know kinda vague side argument

and leads into my second point, as far as I can tell (but maybe I'm wrong) the Canadian gov't is not basing their ban based on this additional information you added to your post, not even slightly.
do they regularly ban people from entering due to sexual assault reports?

ok i regret posting about i saw about the reports, don't know all the details and it's possible no action was taken just that stories were circulating.  i'll leave it at that and it sure looks like it all involves the current "terrorism" case against one of them in the UK.

so canada, can they come now?

At the Jayhawks show, Gary Louris mentioned that he had moved to Canada and he invited the rest of us to join him.

To which the woman next to me mumbled to get boyfriend, "Yeah, it's not like Trudeau is that much better.'

Mind you, this was yesterday.

you can't really expect Americans to know who is running Canada, come on now, are you new here?

other than the obvious that trudeau has been out of office for months now, that is a wild take… i get that no everyone was a fan, but saying that trudeau = trump is just… wild.

oh, I was mostly talking about not knowing the current leader of Canada, didn't really focus on the part where it implied that Trudeau was a fascist and nearly equal to trump

This senator from Maine wrote Canadians a letter. I wrote him back.

Oh Canada you went and stepped in it now
