Just did some research on my own. It turns out that real estate in Langley is actually quite less than 400,000. I really can't understand Nodenial's arguments, and have to wonder if this person even lived in Canada. One is a 5 bedroom, 2 kitchen place for only 282,000.

203rd Street and 87th Avenue Langley BC... my kid lived with my ex on that road for 2 years. The average house is about 400,000.00 bucks. That ain't ghetto! Nice neighborhood. There are horses grazing in the feild outside his house. There are 12 houses on that street. My sixteen year old kid came home one day with a Safeway bag full of pot. I asked him where he got it... 8 of the 12 homes on THAT road less than a quarter mile long were growing pot. Let's see... if my math is correct.... that's 2 out of 3 houses in that neighborhood. Hell, you can see the plants from the road. My kid raided some yards on the way home. There was so much there... nobody missed it.
But you guys go ahead... your ostrich position suits you well.
I'm sick of this discussion. There is a reason why I left Canada... listening to you guys just makes it all that much easier.
You can go right ahead and sit there in your depressed economy, your culture, your 'world'. I would never, EVER (!!!) have the opportunities and prosperity in Canada that I do here in the USA.
And THAT (!!!) is very sad to say...
I AM...... NOdenial .... you can HAVE Canada! I'm done withYou have some serious anger issues. If you can't handle dissenting views, then maybe it's better not to post at all. It isn't worth having a heart attack over. I would discuss this further, but I think it's obvious to anyone who reads this thread who is 'on crack' and who isn't.

Statistic: one in three residences in many areas across Canada are "grow operations". (grow marijuana in their homes). This is true for most of Vancouver, BC; MANY localities across Ontario, Edmonton and Calgary, Alberta, and many areas in Quebec.
As a gesture of hospitality, many Canadians would offer you a joint as freely as a beer. Marijuana is not a socially offensive product in Canada. (I don't have too much of a problem with this... but read my next point:... )
The drug of choice across Canada in fact is NOT marijuana - it is crack-cocaine. This is because Canadian marijuana is so desireable around the world, that they are able to trade their marijuana pound for pound for cocaine if they smuggle it across the border into the USA. This is a HUGE issue in Canada. For those of you who understand addictions, you know how addictive cocaine can be. It is an 'emotional addiction' and can REALLY mess people up! Even though you may not be addicted yourself, the addicts 'spin' the people around them to support their addictions, and petty crimes, B&E, car thefts are out of control! It is my opinion that this is the single most serious issue in Canada today. Canadians are completely irrational in so many areas - not because they intend to be... but because they have learned bad behavior and are reacting to their social circle (many of whom they have no idea are addicts).
Canada's economy is depressed (compared to the USA) and has been this way for at least 25 years. The last time the Canadian dollar was worth more than the American dollar was 1967.That is perhaps the most warped and ignorant bunch of nonsense I have ever heard.
1 in 3 homes are grow ops. Bullshit. Complete and utter bullshit. Absolute and utter ****ing nonsense.
Drug of choice is crack cocaine. Yeah, where you live. Try moving out of the ghetto. Crack is everywhere. Actually, the drug of choice is alcohol. Second is marijuana.
Also, B and E's out of control... again, move out of the ghetto. Move to a ghetto in the states and you'll have the same thing.
Don't think that you're going to post bullshit on here and think that I'm going to say nothing. Obviously, you have zero facts to back any of this up. If you do, I for one would love to hear it.
Until then, go away grashopper.

If anyone has had the displeasure of actually getting a Moosehead beer down, I ask you one thing.
Did you like it?
I enjoy different beers from around the world. I don't hate beers. Except for two. Moosehead, and Club. Given the more evil of the two, Club is the worst, with Moosehead a close second.
Absolute pisswater. I'd rather drink rubbing alcohol.

Now I am going to be totally 100 percent honest with you.
I hated the 'get togethers.'
I hated being with people who back-bite and stab in the back constantly.
I hated trying to be friendly with village idiots.
I hated the fake smiles, the fake "oh, we missed you", all of it.
When I lived in the valley of the dubs, I only craved leaving they're company.
Not to say that there were some exceptional people there! The problem is the belief system is so flawed. These people are programmed to stab you in the back. I was one of them.
Good memories? I would rather forget the whole thing.
I remember going to assemblies, and having panic attacks. "Trust in Jehovah". If I did have a panic attack, it was my fault! I wasn't trusting in Jehovah. I wasn't worthy.
My only fun times were going to clubs and getting drunk. It was a pathetic existence, one that I am glad to be rid of at this stage in my life. I am so much more than the next drunk, the next high. I get much higher and happier doing things that I enjoy.
So let me tell you what I miss about the dubs. Nothing. Nobody. Nothing.

Catholic Church: Sorry little girl... you're going to hell
by Elsewhere inand there is nothing you can do about it because you can't eat bread!.
http://www.cnn.com/2004/us/08/19/communion.denied.ap/index.htmlchurch says girl's communion not valid.
brielle, new jersey (ap) -- an 8-year-old girl who suffers from a rare digestive disorder and cannot eat wheat has had her first holy communion declared invalid because the wafer contained no wheat, violating roman catholic doctrine.. haley waldman, 8, is shown in her communion gown in this undated family photo.. now, haley waldman's mother is pushing the diocese of trenton and the vatican to make an exception, saying the girl's condition should not exclude her from the sacrament, which commemorates the last supper of jesus christ before his crucifixion.

But isnt it going to turn into human fleash as soon as she ingest it. If the girl cant have wheat, but the church teaching that the bread turns to flesh. Then she should be okay. IF this is not the case why is she catholic or bothering with a ceremony that does not involve eating Jesus. I mean she might as well be a JW.
But the wheat is the symbol of flesh; thus flesh's light's flesh. Jesus wish he could be in the flesh in the bowels of the child; yet the flesh does not turn to wheat; it turns to flesh's light's flesh. Therefore, we can assume that the flesh, notwistanding the wheat scenario, can turn itself back into wheat. Therefore, the wheat shall not be passed in the excrement. It shall be reborn into the utmost of the fleshiest part of the child. Can we not assume, then, that Jesus will save this child from the flesh?

Many of the motels were dmaged so bad that they had to cancel all reservations, yet many of the dubs are going without any place to stay ( what idiots ).
They have 'faith' the 'jehovah' will find a place for them to sleep. No doubt there will be many 'fine examples' of putting 'jehovah' first that they can play out on future 'circuit assemblies' and 'district conventions'. Perhaps they can have parts on how aid workers were displaced because of religious idiots.
Thanks for the update. It always amazes me just how low these morons can go.

Gadgets Elder Visit - The transcript
by Gadget ina few might remember that i arranged to meet with the elders for a chat, and i hoped it might let me get off a bit steam.

You held your ground and didn't get flustered or anything like that. But at the same time, you didn't make a dent in them either. They left with the same opinion of you, if not worse, than when they came in. Not that anyone can expect anything different from a conversation with elders like that. They're brainwashed. If they ever come around, it will take a series of events to wake them up.
But as I said before, those things give me a headache.That's the impression that I got. Although you really did try, the dent factor was zero. Some people are just too far gone.
And I do have a headache now from reading it. They can't be reasoned with.
The one thing that I found most interesting is how you called bullshit on they're 'statistics'. It's such horseshit I can't even begin to believe it! I truly wish that someone, with a degree or anything would please give us some definite numbers on exactly how many witnesses used to be witnesses!!!! It would be lovely to have this kind of ammunition to sassult them with!
But alas, nobody seems to know for sure, even ballpark.

Start screaming and saying that your cat is worshipping satan....
Or you could just listen to them, take the magazines, rip them up in front of them, and give them back. (I am kidding.... that's just rude!)
Just tell them that you're an ex-witness with no regrets. They will NEVER come back. If they do, tell them that they're harassement (sp?) will not work on you. If they come back again, you will contact your lawyer because DESPITE being told to leave, they have come back. That's harassment.
