Well, Jagmeet said just the other day that what Conservatives have been doing (with these non-confidence votes), was a game, and that he wasn’t going to play.
Now, all of a sudden, he’s caved?
Something either happened behind closed doors, or he’s surrendered.
That’s how I see it, and I could be totally wrong.
Just tried Grayjay on desktop last night. Syncing with mobile is awesome.
But on desktop, I’ll continue to use freetube because i can block channels (or even content by keyword) from showing up on my feed.
If you only watch content that you’re sibscribed to, then this shouldn’t even be a concern.
viable parliamentary democracy is functioning as intended
I guess that depends on your definition of functioning.
Just the other day, the NDP leader said this: "We’re not going to vote in favour of any of their games because that’s what (the Conservatives are) doing. They’re playing games,” Singh told reporters after the vote was tallied. (SOURCE)
And now he wants to play games with our future by handing Conservatives more power?
We all know that the Conservative party in Canada and the Republicans in the US are not acting in good faith to bring benefit to the people, so is this how our democracy is supposed to work?
We have a democracy FOR THE PEOPLE, and if the people aren’t benefiting from these “games”, then it’s not functioning as intended.
In my opinion, of course.
It’s about optics.
Canada is one of the last few full democracies out there, and seeing how the United States has already failed, to give up and surrender sends a strong message to other nations that democracy just doesn’t work.
“The Liberals don’t deserve another chance,”
And Conservatives shouldn’t even get a chance, yet Singh is handing them power on a silver plate.
Burning down the country and democracy in the West “to own the Libs” sounds like a plan we may never recover from.
This isn’t “vomit-inducing”, it’s rage-inducing.
If someone can give away 99% of their hoarded wealth, and still be a MULTI BILLIONAIRE, you know that the global community needs to come together and put caps on personal wealth. Taxing them isn’t enough.
Yeah, likely right in front of the doors so she makes sure to poison everyone else, too.
The front of my local hospital always has people smoking, and you’ll always be breathing it in if you’re trying to enter the ER or main entrance or parking lot or the park beside it.
but otherwise it’s local if possible, or direct from the vendor if not.
The problem I find is that local usually means “you’re gonna pay a lot more for the same item you can get shipped for free off Amazon”.
So, who am I benefitting? It’s a horrible consumer dilemma that I hate to be caught up in.
And it’s not even an “Amazon” issue. Our local bike shop, as much as I really do like to support them, sells tires for 2-3x more than what I pay to get them shipped in from an online bike store out of Germany (I’m in Canada!). Supporting local only works when local isn’t trying to screw you over.
Also, check your local library for “creator” services. Our local libraries have 3d printers you can either use, or have them print stuff for you for dirt cheap. Really, really cool service.
Ok, so it’s earmarked? If so, I don’t see the reason for this outrage, as that’s still the amount accounted for in explaining the deficit numbers.
Before resigning, former finance minister and deputy prime minister Chrystia Freeland promised to keep the federal deficit at or below $40 billion in 2023-24, but the statement revealed a deficit of $61.9 billion.
The Finance Department attributed the overshoot mainly to a “significant one-time” expense of $16.4 billion for settling Indigenous legal claims — something the grand council chief of the Anishinabek Nation swiftly and strongly condemned.
Were those funds used to settling Indigenous legal claims or not? If they were, this is this a non-issue and zero reason for any complaint.
If they are arguing that this money did not reach them, then we have a story.
This is about Trudeau and finance ministers, not women.
If it really were about the mistreatment of women, Conservatives would be defending him. So yes, absolutely not about women! LOL
Someone should tell them to definitely stay away from Curb Your Enthusiasm (created and starring the co-creator of Seinfeld). It’s like a rated-R version of Seinfeld that has absolutely no boundaries. LOL
This is seriously cool!
They have “clyclometers” for clocking miles, with their “double barrel” version able to give you a trip counter as well!
And the headlights? Gas or oil lamps!!
The “camera carrier” is like a modern bikepacking harness.
I kind of want to buy all this stuff now. LOL
The Great State of Canada
I have to give myself daily reminders that the US and Canada are still allies, despite him acting this way.
For me, it’s screenshots.
I can’t even count how many self-hosted or open source projects I’ve wanted to check out, and the project page is just text.
If I don’t know exactly what I’m getting into in the first 10 seconds, I’m onto something else, especially when it’s something heavily based on UI/UX with frequent interaction.
EDIT: Also, I’m a fan of docker apps to run off my Synology NAS, but it better come with step-by-step instructions, or I won’t bother. There are some good resources for detailed instructions for various self-hosted/NAS/docker related content, but it’s nice when a project actually has this in their documentation.
So… are there any crimes that would get you less than life in prison in Dubai?
Maybe scratching your eyebrow, or perhaps wearing sunglasses? /s
This is what happens when you let AI write the job listing. It’s just word salad.
Plus all services are being slowly dwindled because money is tight…so they make it tighter?
For clarification, this tax break is on a federal level.
The dwindling services you speak of are either provincial or municipal, but not federal.
The tax break has nothing to do with those services.
But I agree that we can do better, and I’d love to see “all in” prices displayed as a default.
Hmm. My municipality is rated 44, and while it’s got some decent cycling routes, it’s ass compared to another municipality that I enjoy riding in.
That one is only rated 48, but I find my experience cycling there to be significantly better.
So…
I’m not sure I trust the rating.
But also, my brain can’t even imagine what a city with an 80+ score is like!
