The first one is in New Jersey, not Canada. The US has 5 times more prisoners per capita, and 10 times our population. Examples from there may never happen here at all.

That second article says Canada already changed the policy for offenders with a history of sexual offenses against women.

So… You haven’t really shown any reason to change the policy further in Canada.

I’ve yet to hear of a single incident in Canada that would lead to this being necessary.

Plenty of guards fucking the women though…

Nothing but political theatre from the PP

Most haven’t been around for 25 years yet, but here’s a study on german panels at 16-20 years showing they’re just fine.

You can simple google it. It’s considered common knowledge at this point.

Solar panels have been out for a long time, they definitely last more than 6 years. You can easily look this up.

The warranties are usually 25 years at this point.

Maybe do some research instead of using your feelings to make every decision, you’ll get a better result.

It depends on what it is.

Role playing games are often such a form of entertainment.

Most of the machines are limited by staff, not equipment in terms of overall load. They may be fully in use during peak times, but that’s mostly because it’s convenient to book people for non urgent appointments during the day.

I was in the ER for 14 hours a month ago waiting to see the doctor, but I had my xray within 20 minutes of arriving at triage, and a CT within a half hour of a doctor looking at the xray and deciding I needed more imaging.

It’s the same thing with things like operating rooms.

It’s honestly probably better putting that amount of money into trying to get a better job over that time period via education, or taking time off to apply for new positions, or something similar.

$6000 total investment over 10 years even with decent interest on top would be made up in less than 2 years with a $5k raise.

As much as I dislike private health care, for something like an international sports tournament I almost think fifa should just give a bunch of cash to the health ministry so they can have extra overtime staff on shift, and those staff can treat normal patients during that period unless they are needed for the athletes. That way everyone benefits and it all stays within the bounds of the normal system here.

When this happens, it means the laws that enable these people are no longer acceptable to the people. That’s a dangerous place to be.

From my time living in Japan and speaking Japanese.

Living on the west coast of Canada, where we talk about Tsunamis fairly regularly, I’ve never heard anyone add a T sound to Tsunami at the start. Only Sue-Nah-Me

It’s not at all like the T sound in Japanese followed by the S sound. The normal T sound in Japanese is pronounced by putting your tongue behind your top teeth and flicking your tongue down a bit. Tsu on the other hand starts with your tongue below your top teeth, and your cheeks pulled together a bit.

It’s also nothing like the TS in Mats in english.

I look forward to your post suggesting that Canada should just give up territory to the US when they invade us, rather than fighting back.

It is a travesty, but no party who gains enough power to lead a government in Canada has any incentive to change the system. The party currently in power always has the most to lose from it.

Strange conceptions?

Tsunami doesn’t start with a T sound, It’s just a strange artifact of the romanization of the Japanese sounds. It’s not exactly a S sound either. The sound it’s supposed to be just doesn’t have an english equivalent at all, so they made up something close-ish but it does a poor job of communicating that.

The one Japanese mis-pronunciation that bothers me is that Tokyo only has two Syllables, To-Kyo, not To-Ky-O like almost all western people pronounce it as. Kyoto has the same problem, It’s Kyo-to, not Ky-O-To.

Passing through other countries where it’s illegal is surprised that he can’t have Cannabis on his person?

Are you stupid? Clearly it’s a yes.

I’m sure the government will bail him out of this eventually, but damn… why are people such idiots?

To be clear, as happened with a bunch of these. They were not individual pardons. They were a batch of 1500 offenders who had non violent crimes, and were already outside of prisons on home release from covid situations. He didn’t pick and choose, it was just everyone who was in that situation.

Yay, my local government is slightly less stupid than other areas.
