I base this prediction on liberal party performance in the last two by-elections.

Yes, but what makes you think that that could possibly be what’s about to happen?

I think it is far more likely that liberal voters turnout will be down because of trudeau fatigue, this will cost the liberals battleground ridings. I think conservatives will have higher turnout than normal in traditional red seats since there is now a chance of their vote mattering. And I think that will cost the liberals even more seats.

It’s so sad that this sort of hate exists in our society.

There’s a good chance PP will just get more conservative votes in already conservative areas and still end up with a minority.

What are you basing this on?

I don’t think it’s the current in the tabs that’s an issue, each socket should be rated for the full circuit’s rating, but the ground shouldn’t be in series, always parallel.

Downvote away but you know it’s true.

You don’t know what others know. Building codes vary tremendously between regions. Imo zoning and real estate speculation are MUCH more significant drivers than the cost of design and construction. But my opinion is based on my experiences in my region.

I mean both really

Not every racialized person reports experiencing racism. That can be for various reasons, one of the potential reasons is that they haven’t experienced racism. Although I guess in that case they wouldn’t be a racialized person… just a person of colour.

Yes what I described is class but as we agree there is a strong racial correlation of class in America. There is also racial prejudice which makes it more difficult for some racialized people to develop strong university applications, eg less encouragement to participate in certain extra curriculars. Racial prejudice that affected a parent’s career can affect multiple generations.

I’m not a racialized person. My parents are the same age as Ruby Bridges, but didn’t have to face racial discrimination in their careers. In 2018 My parents helped my wife and I buy a house (they gave us a loan against what they expect to leave us in their will, ie when they die we owe the estate $x0,000 dollars plus interest, but our inheritance is expected to exceed that amount). We still have a mortgage, but we were able to buy a house in the city in 2019. This is going to help my children get into university because they are going to be closer to extra curricular activities and summer jobs. This would not have been possible if my parents faced racial discrimination in their careers that suppressed their earnings.

I grew up in an affluent neighbourhood without really being exposed to racism or stereotypes. Also without really meeting people that had experienced racism. I would have agreed that we should focus on class because racism is only historical and will sort itself out when the old people die. I was wrong.

Race and racism divides the working class against itself, we can’t ignore it, but we can’t fixate on it either. We need to simultaneously advance working class interests, AND the interests of people disadvantaged by racism, because we need unity.

Yeah I agree with you.

When they said:

If there’s hidden segregation in education (…) then universities doing less of it will become better over time.

They are totally ignoring the fact that systemic racism is self reinforcing.

E.g. if one group of parents have enough cash on hand to enroll their children in tutoring when they need it, and impressive extra curricular activities when tutoring is unnecessary, then the children of those parents will have stronger university applications than the children that have to work part time jobs. This perpetuates racially inequality.

It’s not difficult to understand. It doesn’t even require racial prejudice.

Yeah I thought the same about depose.

Russia is there, maybe you could say Mongolia too.

The near east and middle east are kinda there. Like Arabian peninsula seems

My point regarding south east Asia is that it’s not just the south-east, it’s the all south Asia, east Asia that are missing. (And also naturally the south east)

It’s very euro centric to dedicate two circles exclusively to representing the Mediterranean but to leave India and China off, and Africa dwarfed.

I would say it’s east Asia and South Asia that are missing, not “south east”. It’s like 3 billion isn’t it?

What happens if a retailer doesn’t update their SKU codes in time for Christmas and charges GST on items that are GST exempt? But does figure it out before it’s time to make a remittance?

Also fewer cars on the road would reduce the travel time impact of road closures.

I’m jumping in to ask what you think of my hair-brained idea of taking all these seized boughtback weapons and launching them into temporarily occupied parts of Ukraine and/or disaffected parts of Russia with ~2 magazines of appropriate ammo each. Via idk hot airballoon or something.

Since Russia already has the ability to distribute small arms to anti-Kievans in those areas, I don’t think it significantly increases the risks to Ukrainian forces. Would it hamper Russian operations in any way?

Retaliation can get ugly quickly. Does Toronto still ship its garbage to Michigan?

Although I guess Ford wouldn’t mind if Toronto suffered so he could look like a tough guy.

I reckon if you’re doing the work involved in managing a rental property yourself, you’re doing work and providing a service.

If you expect an employee/contractor to do all that for you, but to still collect profits: what would you say you do here?

My view is that if a town removes or bans rainbow crosswalks then it is a dangerous lie to tell people with minority SOGIs that they are safe and welcome.

Even if there was authenticated video of him hanging himself, it is still a scandal/ conspiracy cover up that it was allowed to happen.

It ought to have been impossible.
