wrote in message ... 1. "Someone noted english/french in BC." I was that someone in my initial post of Jan 3, 2008 1:56pm. Is that incorrect? I think you have provided the proof that someone wrote that they saw english and french labels while in BC. 2. "Someone else noted french only in Quebec." Was it mentioned by anyone that they saw labels in french only while in quebec? Yes, that was said. Okay, so it was within the same post. Pardon me for probably reading it as a paste in another post. 3. "Someone else noted chinese in marham" That would be TheNewsGuy(Mike) in his Jan 4, 2008 2:14am post. At this point, it is mentioned that in a particular neighborhood, all labels are in chinese. Are you saying this is inaccurate? a. He does not cite the person making each of the three observations he references, much less the date and time of that observation. he doesnt feel the need to cite every single line by everysingle person. We all read newsgroups, we dont need cites for mundane posts. b. He has his facts wrong - the person making the first and second observations was one and the same....me. Do note that had he cited the person making each of the three observations, he would have readily seen for himself that I was the person making these two observations. good god!!! I made an error. IS it so important? c. He entirely omitted the key issue - namely, that the very same item (eg, a can of Campbell Chicken Noodle soup) is labeled in both English and French in the western provinces and in French only in Quebec. No, I warned Newsguy not to answer your question. As it turns out, he simply said there were lots of chinese labels. Named 2 stores I think. He did nto say either way whether they did or did not sell the same products would be in english elsewhere. And, of course, Chuckie ended with his ad hominem, all the while ducking/avoidance the issue as per whether the same item labeled in Chinese is similarly labeled differently in different parts of Canada. At least this time around, Chuckie has not strewn about red herrings as per financing and ethnic neighborhoods. But...but...do make note of the abysmal failure on Chuckie's part to understand that the key issue is that of the exact same item having different language labels in different parts in Canada, his recap having no comment whatever on this issue. I never adressed the labeling issue in BC/Quebec. I simply said we have a chinese store here. At this point you got upset that I made fun of your anal need to have everything documented and covered when I posted to mike he should avoid your question. I never said you could or couldn't find anything in english. I didnt miss the point of anything. I made a simple statement. Then as if on cue, you put this forward: "Step one. Hie yourself to any such store in Canada that has an item - any item - labeled in Chinese only. Markham in Ontario is suggested as one such locale. The only requirement is that this same item be available in stores both in Quebec and in British Columbia. Step two. Take a close look at said item and remember what it is. Step three. Hie yourself to any store in British Columbia that has this same item, only the item must now be labeled in English and French....no Chinese. Got that? Step four. Finally, hie yourself to any store in Quebec that has this same item, only now the item must be labeled only in French...no English, no Chinese. Got that?" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ And by the way, the public finance thing....you figure that out yet...public assistance programs, heating assistance for example, is available to the public, but you must meet certain conditions to qualify......how could this possibly be public if only certain people can get it? Wouldnt it have to be called private assistance? yup...Chuckie busy at work with thinking, thinking, and still more thinking in that own little world of his without paying heed what goes on in the real world in which the rest of us live. Note, please, the best he can do - rather than cite posts that actually happened - is to say time and time again "I think." And sometimes he thinks correctly and then sometimes - he does not. And in thinking as he does, he yet once more ducks addressing directly the key issue of the same item having different language labels in different parts of Canada. But at least this time around he at least says, "I never adressed the labeling issue in BC/Quebec"...which labeling issue is, of course, the central issue under discussion. So he at least admits however lamely to being off topic at best, to tossing out yet another red herring at the very least. And should this assessment not be accurate then Chuckie himself can explain the relevance of his items with Chinese labels to this issue of the exact same items having different language labels in different parts of Canada. Completely evading/avoiding this language labeling issue as he has until now, I guess we all should feel fortunate and maybe even a bit appreciative that Chuckie even deigns this reference to being off topic as per the issue under discussion. But...but...rather than end with an ad hominem as he did his last post, he ends this one by dragging in yet once more that finance red herring! Ah...once a Chuckie, always a Chuckie! |
