Even though it’s plainly obvious that the Carney has nothing to do with that commercial, and the commercial was just a regan quote (and ok maybe the one thing dougie did that i think is good). Would apologizing for that costs us anything. Like if it lowers the taxes, that seems good for canada.

obligatory can’t wait for trump to die.

I’m with you.

It wouldn’t be surprising at this point if he used this as an excuse to invade Canada.

Against a reasonable politician it would be. Wouldn’t they just use that as an excuse to declare war and annex us. Using that same war to cancel elections and stay in power?

I thought Singh was great, but didn’t stand a chance against white men.

Carneys been a real disappointment, but I guess he’s not Bitcoin pete

Public option cell and Internet I’d be very down with, especially if they reclaimed the lines they paid bell and Rogers to lay

Thanks!

I sometimes feel like it’s a little too much. This artist has done a significant amount of ecological awareness work.

They are rewriting their sacred constitution over charlie pos kirk. I don’t have this kind of certainty about anything anymore.

I agree we want people to be qualified, and we’ve got a need. I disagree with your proposed solution. There is no single final exam that people take for x, it’s often multiple exams. University style exams rarely measure performance typical in a work setting. Let them intern at a few places, then compile a recommendation with a separate body based on the set of recommendations. They’ll be getting paid while they are tested and be rated on more realistic criteria.

I hate that i’ve learned this.

Completely agree about the imbalance being a massive problem, and agree that taxing is likely to wind up missing these people, I don’t see a clear way to cap wealth that doesn’t have the same result.

If we could do that, I don’t see a way with our current system that this would ever happen. Even if we put the NDP in power I’m suspicious that some of them would cave under wealth pressure.

Sorry to be a bummer

ty, I’m a little off proton on account of https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40280689 https://theintercept.com/2025/01/28/proton-mail-andy-yen-trump-republicans/

Interested in how you deal with photos and “drive”. For mail/calendar I’m looking at tuta, i’m still not sure how to deal with the large number of accounts i have associated with gmail.

Doesn’t that make the conversation not good?

Common, too much credit

It’s so transparent, this thing that JUST happened is nuanced, and looks dumb on it’s face if you don’t read past the headline. So of course bitcoin pete jumps on it. Can we please get some St. Mangionie on him, it might make other politicians more honest for a short time.

Nightreign had me, I’ve gone back to it for the everdark bosses, but I find the run before the bosses the most fun.

Went back to elden ring because of it, also picked up enshrouded and have been playing that with my coop group.

Balatro and slay the spire get a run a day

Bad.

There is no amount we could spend on defence that would stop the US. Any annexation would would be immediately over and instead be fought as a long expensive civil resistance at best. I think we spend enough on defence to know, cry about it, and help out around the world.

Instead of spending our money on making Canada a better place to live we are going to give it to a few corporations that make weapons, we’ll probably sell them to israel to kill kids with.

Like there’s just so many better places to spend this: housing, hospitals, infrastructure, transport, environmental projects.

This sounds broken and stupid, but I think it might be the system working well. I don’t think we want stand your ground laws like in Florida.

Self defence is allowed, but only so far as to defend yourself. You can’t go maim someone once your outside of danger. Also this doesn’t mean the guy is guilty, just charged.

It’s pretty nuanced: https://lois-laws.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/C-46/section-34.html

Even the post points this out:

“What would be unreasonable,” former police officer Dan Jones told CBC News Network, “is as you’ve got them subdued on the ground, already under control, continuously hitting them, or hurting them, or stabbing them.”

I’m not disagreeing with your sentiment. The thing is people got to eat etc. we need a way for people to go on strike and the rest of us to join them if our government pulls this shit.

How about we pay the 12million that the CEO makes out to the flight attendants, I bet those exec salaries would go far.
