"we are special snowflakes who need special treatment."

They shouldn't even count as news FFS.

That would probably be too merciful an outcome, frankly...

Thank you for trying to explain this. I found the original blog empty and unhelpful. Lots of nerd words but no substance. I understand more from your post than that blog now.

Its bonkers that we spend so much city funds to make every road and sideroad and street an extra 1-2 lanes wide, then store private vehicles there.... The snow storm in Toronto was fun to watch. Main streets with cars that had been parked for over a week. Not because they were trapped, I get that the first few days. But because they leave what, once or twice a month?

Speaking from experience. My mother-in-law just said "oh well I'll walk." For 2 weeks, before we realized she just couldn't unbury her car on her own. So why does she own a car that lives permanently on a side street?

Listening to our Wanna-Be-Mayor shutting down our bike lanes because they block traffic, I drive (yes I'm part of the problem) daily along routes that have parking outside of morning rush hour or whatever, and I'll count 19 cars over a 2km stretch that essentially turn 2 lanes into 1 plus sometimes a turning lane. But yes. It's the bike lanes that are the problem.....

Uhh.... If they only celebrated when they accomplished something (even their own shit goals that hurt themselves and their countrymen) they would never get a chance. Strike while the iron is hot. Before you realise you set your own house on fire and should probably stop fucking around inside and get out.

My first instinct was the same as yours, bring in the talent.

But what about the Canadian talent? Please don't take this as anti-immigration or anti-American (outside of the patriotically responsible amount given the current situation ...).

How do we balance training and promoting our own and not just shuffling them to the side when there is a glut on the market?

Yeah I can't recall using a typewriter seriously, but for sure I've used on for fun. Also trying to get a commodore 64 to print my homework in 1992 should aub in nicely.

This is ok because it's us and not them.

Ok I think I read all the comments sufficiently and I still don't see the feature I most want: sort by duration.

Dinner is in 20 minutes. Click time range, set for 15-20 minutes. Look through suggestions from subscriptions that are 15-20min long. Pick one. Enjoy video knowing when it ends you'll be able to go eat dinner/go to bed/leave for work.

Nah bud, accent is chef's kiss

Unless spending more upfront reduces the debt overall in the medium or longer term.

....

Not related. It's not a zero sum game. Spending on certain things can save money and allow for tax cuts, tax cuts can create business growth or income in other ways and allow more spending. Defering tax cuts to a certain time or spending to a certain time can lead to better results, ect ect ect.

Anyone who thinks it's linked and must be Tax up=Spending up or Tax down=Spending down should probably not even be in charge of their own homes finances. Even children are taught how to save their allowance over time and then spend it, and I had occasion as a child to "borrow" my allowance to purchase a toy that was on sale.

Her lawyer hasn't talked to her, but we know who to ask. Where would we be if the camera hadn't captured the kidnapping? Missing student?

So... What happens if there aren't cameras where the political abduction occurs? The government can just wait a few weeks then sell them to El Salvador and let their friends and family believe they are missing?

instinctively starts headbanging to the rad soundtrack

I'm really not following you anymore.

I wasn't dismissing the fact that (in Ontario anyways) the HPV vaccine was rolled out for girls and not boys. I'm trying to get you to use your brain and think about "why" that would be.

Because if you think some board of doctors and scientists in the late 90's was like "you know what, fuck men, let's give this vaccine only to women, that will level the playing field." Then I don't know what to tell you.

So you removed the argument, then defend it, again with no sources?

Yeah, this is typical of the men I know who cry victim.

Take some time to reflect man.

I'm very happy your are doing this play by play.

How can he run for prime minister if he doesn't have security clearance?

And if that's allowed for some reason, why would you want a prime minister without that clearance?

You might want to do some research on your last "blatant" example. It really degrades the rest of your arguments and highlights the ignorance that guides most anti-DEI sentiment.
