No self-respecting Canadian says "catsup", it's Heinz 57 Brand Ketchup!
Or Maple Syrup.

Some weird Canadian fetish, I believe. Gross. Well if you are going to discuss it just remember the forum rules and keep it to PMs.

Wikipedia said: The term used for the sauce varies. Ketchup is the dominant term in American English and Canadian English, although it is commonly spelled catsup in some southern US states and Mexico

That bus flipping incident must have been worst then we thought if Josiahfk forgot his Canadian English and thinks he is a Redneck Mexican.

How insulting! Only mustard is allowed on hot dogs! Hey now, those of us in the Chicago area take our hot dogs seriously. You put basically everything on it, except for ketchup, that red devil sauce.
We also serve real pizza, not cheese on a cardboard crust like they do in New York.

SMH. the LGBT community is chewing up Clinton over her comment on HIV/AIDS and the Reagans on media.
They think The Reagans had every answer regarding the 80's epidemic.

Hot dogs should have chili sauce with cheese, mustard, ketchup, and onions all optional.
Chicago *** up hot dogs the same way they *** up pizza. By going entirely overboard and putting way too much ***on it to make it enjoyable. That's not food. It's competitive eating.

See what I mean? They're *** insane.
edit: ...I also may take my hot dogs and pizza very seriously.

How often are there protests against a presidential candidate on the scale of the ones happening against Trump? I don't pay much attention and chances are neither does the media till it's Trump. Is this just because it's Trump or do all candidates get protested like this and the media doesn't pay it much mind?

Cruz and Rubio have both had protesters as well it just does not get the media coverage. Also, one thing to look at as well is Trump brings in 10's of thousands of people to his rallies where the other 2 might get 100 if that.

Eh, it's probably stronger with Trump than with other current candidates. I found a really good and refreshingly non-partisan article about it and Trump in general from the Telegraph.

Some quotes:
Quote: I was on BBC Question Time this week and, as always, we ran through a test question before filming began: “Will Trump be president?” One audience member asked if he wasn’t reminiscent of Hitler. I replied that while his rhetoric is extreme and his policies wrong-headed, some of his positions are surprisingly moderate and it is hard to identify proof of personal prejudice. Moreover, many people are supporting him precisely because they are tired of being called “fascist” simply because they support controls on immigration. He’s riding a backlash against political correctness – and the violence in Chicago is only likely to increase sympathy for him. In the Trump imagination, Middle America is besieged by radical, anti-American voices trying to drown out alternative opinion. Shutting down a Trump rally won’t silence Trumpism. On the contrary, it affirms it. Why does the Left continue to make this mistake?
Quote: Trump’s political style bears comparison not with Mussolini but George C Wallace, who ran for the presidency in 1968 and 1972 on a conservative populist ticket. Protestors turned up to his rallies, too – and he loved it. Wallace perfected the anti-hippie zinger. When kids shouted “F**k Wallace!” he replied: “Why don’t you try learnin’ some other four letter words – like W.A.S.H. and W.O.R.K.?” The confrontations added to the Alabamian's appeal, confirming him as "the only guy willing to take on the mob".
Quote: Trump is a blowhard. His views are unconstitutional, illiberal and sometimes they trigger hate. But he did not take America to war in Iraq on flimsy evidence, establish Guantanamo in contravention of human rights law, licence the torture of enemy combatants, oversee the gargantuan NSA data-gathering operation, launch a dirty war of drone strikes against both terrorists and those unfortunate enough to live near them, undermine the religious freedoms of employers who do not want to subsidise the sex lives of their workers, overrule the states’ wishes on marriage, compel citizens to buy healthcare products or deport thousands of illegals through aggressive round-ups. No: these things were done by “moderate” Republicans and “liberal” Democrats.

The far left shutting down the Trump rally in Chicago with violence last night was a nice sneak peek into your future Country under a Bernie Sanders Presidency. Hordes of naïve young idiots that want your ***, punching people in the face that they disagree with. The entire DNC platform of hate and ignorance that whoops people up into such a frenzy should scare everyone. These are the same people that thought the burning of Ferguson was a peaceful protest.

Secret Service has to step in to protect Donald Trump two days in a row. Let the hate flow through you #feelthebern

The numbers Trump pulls is so much greater than Obama ever did.
All we heard about was how many people showed up to listen to Obama and the records he was breaking.
We hear next to nothing about all the records obama set that Trump is far exceeding.

Sunday, march 13, 2016.
Protest in over 400 cities against our current president, but mainly against the corruption that is intrinsic of populism politics.
Hopefully, the first step toward a better future, where we dont have to just conform while a bunch of nobodies burn all the money from taxes.

If he did such a terrible job, he wouldn't have been re-elected. By this logic, you could assume voters loved congressional members who continuously obstructed him. They voted them a majority in 2010, 2012, and 2014.
