Does the CRTC do anything to help Canada at this point? They’ve allowed all telecoms/media to be merged down to 2 and a half entities. They’ve allowed cell and internet service prices to be the highest in the western world. They’ve forced CanCon rules that subsidize media monopolies while driving viewers to non-Canadian platforms. And now they are going to drive other services out of Canada at the request of those same media monopolies.

He can be cruel AND stupid.

It only takes one ICBM reaching it’s target to fuck up a lot of people in Europe or America.

Go ahead, draft me. Thanks to the lack of availability of family doctors I have a number of chronic health issues! At best you pile 300 other guys like me up to block a road.

allow a family member, police officer or medical professional to petition to force treatment when a person is deemed an imminent danger to themselves or others because of addiction or drug use

As long as there are some seriously strict requirements that need to be met then it’s better than what we have at the moment.

Not pictured: the billions of flying insects missing from the GTA.

He really is speed running the Trump story arc from ‘Hero of the Right’ to raving lunatic.

Fuck everyone involved, the dickheads involved should be held personally responsible for this. Fine the project manager, inspector, foreman, even the tradesmen who actually did the work.

But they were just doing what they were told

Bullshit, when your foreman tells you to build a subpar house, a house that you know someone is going to have to live in, you tell him to put it in writing. Your foreman would literally sell you by the pound if the opportunity ever came up. If enough guys wave down inspectors and get this shit caught before the house is sold it will no longer be profitable to build shitty houses.

Bias: I am an electrician, I worked for 7 years in commercial/industrial construction and 12 years in industrial maintenance/service. If I do sub standard work people can get hurt or killed. Sometimes I have to remind the bean-counters that a dead employee is a lot more expensive than the vital part I need to make a machine safe.

Good.

Are you sure? With private healthcare, corporate gangs and resource hoarding there’s loads of business to be had at the end of the world.

I found a bug in their booking system recently where it didn’t handle paypal transactions properly. After 20min of poking at it the entire theater was rendered un-bookable as a dozen failed transactions took an hour to time out.

It would be a shame if that were to happen to someone on opening night of a big movie.

Bleed the rich. Any person or business that amasses such insane wealth should be made exempt from protection by the law. You are Bond Villain rich, you are responsible for your own safety. But you are also still subject to prosecution, no building electric fences and handing grenades to your henchmen.

Overnight a huge burden is lifted from law enforcement and after a couple years the trickle down model will start to work as multinationals find the point at which increasing wages stops theft by employees!

What a shocking thing to hear from the guy who plugged a coffee chain’s new sandwich while thousands of people died thanks to his criminal mishandling of COVID.

But did he mention the new, limited-edition, collectable cups at Tim Hortons?

significant geological carbon storage capacity

You don’t need to use that storage capacity if you don’t pump fossil carbon to the surface :/

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen something about Alberta cracking natural gas to produce “green” hydrogen.

Leading to a blanket ban on VPNs “for the children.”

Don’t come tell me today that you guys are being mistreated, because sometimes you’re mistreating us

Even with context, fuck that pig.

In the line of duty, assaults and injuries and even deaths for police officers have been on the rise, and this is of grave concern to your police leaders

Citation needed.

Preface: I work with a hard core “they’re going to make us eat crickets” kinda guy.

He was going on about how “how bad traffic is in the GTA and how they are trying to take away our cars so that no one drives any more.” So I point out that if they added a bunch more Go Trains in the GTA you wouldn’t need your car to commute AND there would be less traffic on the highway for the people who do drive.

But where are you going to park all those extra trains.

Bruh. There are how many million fucking cars that drive to the GTA and park every god damned day but you want to know where they are going to park 30 trains?
