10·23 hours agoWhat’s this? A little good news out of Alberta???

What a game! I think we got lucky that Yamamoto couldn’t stretch out, that dude has been haunting my nightmares.
Not a regular sports watcher and loving this series, simply incredible baseball out of both teams, every single batter seems to be a threat and the battle of the blue-collar pitchers is wild, such a managers’ series.
In other great sports for non-watchers: The Vancouver Whitecaps are in the semis, they have been a blast to watch and are playing great scrappy soccer.
That’s exactly my point. We are trading one bully regime for another.
We are having trouble with the US because it has become an autocratic bully state. Maybe we shouldn’t be rushing to jump into bed with another autocratic bully state.

It’s not just US auto plants, we have a sizable auto parts manufacturing sector that employs a lot of Canadians. Then there are all the indirect jobs and the raw materials (steel, aluminum etc).
Any Chinese manufacturer who wants to sell EVs here needs to be pitching a plan to manufacture here.
“Many people who do not vote very often correctly identify that the system is rigged against their interests and will not recognise their choice.”
That’s quite a claim.
Are you suggesting that elections are rigged? Or that electing NDP or Green MLAs won’t create positive changes for the poor? Both premises are false, in my experience, and there are NDP-led provinces that prove it. I’ve watched this play out for the last 40 yea
Things are not perfect in those provinces, but they are objectively better off than in Ontario. Because people fucking voted. Not voting will always hand power to the conservatives, and giving people a BS excuse to do so is wildly irresponsible.
You can tell yourself whatever you want to excuse yourself for not voting, but please don’t spread the lie to others.
Nothing racist about Winnie the Pooh, he is cuddly and stuffed with fluff!
The Cartels invented that process after our “war on drugs” made it impossible to get pseudo-ephedrine over the counter in drug stores, which was a key ingredient in good ol’ fashioned biker meth. Biker meth wasn’t a nice drug, but it was afternoon tea compared to the new production methods. The new stuff is much more addictive and it causes permanent changes in the brain. You can get off new meth, but you are never the same… this is a key ingredient in the increasing levels of violence and psychosis amongst street addicts.
These are all blatant lies, but thanks for proving me right, bot.
Btw, native English speakers don’t write things like “giggles”.
lol. Do you really think the economic impact of our canola industry is on par with the potential impact Chinese EVs? It’s a ridiculous notion.
The American and Japanese auto industries both employ Canadians.
Wanna see a trick? I can make bots appear, watch this:
Maybe if China agrees to stop being a threat to Taiwan, stops interfering in our politics, and stops spying on us, and builds some auto plants here to employ some Canadians, we can talk about their fucking EVs. Until then, we already have one international bully as a trade partner, we don’t need more.
Did this “joke” come by fax?
Overpriced homes will go unbuilt, as will homes for foreign investors and homes for short term rentals. That’s all good news so far. Demand for affordable homes for Canadians homes will continue, and so will supply. Supply of those homes will increase as supply of the overpriced decreases - ie when the real estate industry starts building what people want and no what they want to sell.
“homes will go Unbuilt if we don’t bend over for the real estate industry” is exactly the same lie as “if we tax Job Creators the jobs will go away”.
My understanding is that this ruling was inevitable, and that no one informed on the issue should be pretending to be shocked, most of all our provincial government.
It will get further refined as the process unfolds, but there’s no getting around the well-established fact that the BC government illegally sold that land.
I also think it’s a positive that this is shaking people up: we need more pressure on all levels of government to get treaties negotiated.
