  It could be intentional to force people to buy iPads. In the business world it’s called nudging.

  BS stories in the publications

  this is an example of a story that just strikes me as funny from their publications:.

  "wilson, a christian from ghana, was notified that in a few days, he would be fired from his job.

  on his final day at work, he was assigned to wash the private car of the managing director of the company.

  There must be a problem with dishonesty in the JW organization or they wouldn’t have made up this “experience”

  one of our friends in canada posted the following message to their circle of friends.

  "in our meeting last night, the coordinator read a letter from the canadian branch about the reorganized territories.

  all the territories in the fraser valley from hope to vancouver, about a hundred miles in all, have been reorganized to create larger congregations and improve the use of kingdom halls.

  The branch probably read the article on cbc about how overvalued Vancouver real estate is and decided to cash in before the big crash.

  As perverse as it sounds we need a war or a major economic depression in this country.

  There are way too many thankless, entitled snowflakes and princesses out there. Many Canadians under the age of 60 don’t appreciate what a great country we live in. Some are seeking to destroy our country. Others have become complacent and expect to be catered to.

  There is a problem with the justice system in Canada. People are taking the law into their own hands as the system is for the criminals and not the victims of crime.

  let's say an aunt or uncle dies.

  .

  let's say you barely knew them.. let's say their memorial service was held at the kingdom hall.. let's say if you attend, you have to deal with shunning from family and jws, and you are forced listen to them present their paradise promotional materials, and the dead person's "earthly hope™", and let's face it ... the heeby-jeebies of having to be in a kingdom hall again.. would you put yourself through it?

  It is an infomercial for the Jehovah’s Witness cult. I’ve been to my aunts and my grandmas in recent years. I just sit and try to ignore the bullshit (just like when I go to the meetings)

  i'm being serious, i would like to hear from folks here that support him describe to me how that news conference was absolute brilliance, he answered all the questions, he knows what he is talking about.

  just want to compare note with those who aren't his supporters (and have common sense) as you know this forum is here to hear both sides, so, have at it .

  Don’t kid yourself Simon. The United States have some of the most generous agricultural subsidies on the planet. If Canada didn’t have supply management we would have to heavily subsidize dairy and poultry. Maybe that is the way to go. Heavily subsidize these producers like the US does. It might keep Trump happy.

  Either way we pay. Higher milk prices or higher taxes to pay the farmers to stay in business.
