We need provinces and the feds to communicate and plan together more effectively in both immigrations and housing terms. We need to have a plan to make sure that people coming in have housing and employment opportunities without a public opinion developing that these opportunities are being taken away from existing Canadians.

Currently the feds can say we want to bring in 1 million people, the provinces can say sure but we won't plan for that at all (but they do want the workers) and then throw the feds under the bus when the province faces a housing crisis. Then the local politicians spin it as either exclussively the feds fault or even blame the immigrants, as if they had any say in housing or employment development.

Plot twist, the anime girl's transformations are the villians.

YMMV but i still see lots right around dusk at the edges of wetland areas. Not denying they are threatened but there are still some places they are able to live and those places should be protected. Wetlands do a lot more for us ecologically and hydrologically speaking than just fireflies anyway and are one of the most important ecosystems to be protected.

We need a mix of both. Yes people should be following the rules, but the truth is some people don't and with how normalized driving is, testing standards are pretty relaxed. Most people were tested as teenagers and now just rely on getting tickets to keep us in line, meanwhile many trades and certificates require retesting to stay valid. It would be horrendously expensive to retest drivers, but i think regular retesting should be done and the bill should be paid for by the drivers.

Currently it feels just as safe to do 80 in most 60 zones. Changing the design to make speeding feel more risky and feel unsafe will reduce speeding and let people rely less on their speedometers.

My coworker doesn't like to speed. His new van doesn't have cruise control. The 10 speed automatic transmission can let you creep from 100 to 115/120 pretty easily and relatively unnoticeably on an empty road. He complains how half his time driving hes constantly checking the speedometer and feels he is paying less attention to the roadway because of that. This issue isn't as simple as check the speedometer more often. Vehicle and roadway design plays a factor as well.

Its only been 3 weeks and we don't have much data on how many of them were repeat offenders. We need to give more time for peoples driving habits to adapt to the consequences.

The cameras are much cheaper than cops are for the same level of enforcement and the revenue can be used to further invest in roadway safety like lane narrowing and traffic calming.

The truth is, the speeding issue has been many years in the making as enforcement hasn't been able to keep up with the number of drivers and 15-20 over became normalized. We aren't going to reverse that trend in just 3 weeks.

It is also a infrastructure issue. When the lane of a 40km road is built exactly as a freeway lane and drivers have been allowed to creep the average speed to 15-20 over the limit, it can literally feel like you're the one doing wrong when doing the limit as most other cars fly past you.

The psychological effects of lane size, other vehicle speeds, and overall roadway design needs to be considered if we actually want to make our streets safer.

I'd bet there are plenty of girls out there who can be a great loving partner and also make you feel like a loser when you want it. Instead of hiding your kink and trying to push it down, find a partner who likes you and your kink.

Technically speaking, those bodies were used for science. Just they were used for military science, not health sciences.

The morgue bodies may not have as high quality of organs or may not match genetically. If a billionaire puts a bounty on a liver that fits them genetically and has barely been abused, someone is going to be looking to cash in.

Some doctors and scientists are really fucked up and value their experiements over human life. If bodies become a resource they can claim, some patients may not get the care they deserve because the body would be valuable to their studies and experiments.

There is also concerns for the organ market.

Culturally, humans have long standing and many unique traditions for caring for their dead. Someone and their remaining family should not be denied their funeral rights because science wants their body.

A better option would be increasing the amount of awareness for these programs so that people willing to donate their body or organs are informed of their existence and goals and can choose to donate.

The oil company would let them starve to death then send a body disposal bill to the next of kin

It could be used as a framework for labor camps where people are paid dirt cheap wages and offered compensation in the form of shitty on site accommodations. They could let a foriegn investor build a factory to their nation's standards (or no standards at all) and apply loose labor laws to their workers. This is extreme, but somewhat possible under this legislation.

One could argue it is safe in reasonable moderation. CHS devlops due to extreme and excessive daily use of cannabis. Enjoying a joint every now and then is far safer than toking every 30 minutes.

If i ate 30 chocolate bars everyday for weeks on end, I'd have some serious health issues, but one every weekend would be nearly unnoticeable from a health perspective.

Given they are suspended over water, it may actually be better to not have the harness. If the whole thing were to tip the harness could get tangled and keep someone trapped under water.

Flaring is much better than just letting the methane escape so it would be a better solution than doing nothing and would be a great stepping stone to a more permanent option. Flaring would be much cheaper than a methane generator or capture device.

If only those companies were wealthy enough to do something about it. I guess our only choice is let the tazpayer handle it.

I'd argue the sport influences the build more than the build influences the sport, with the exception to height. Athletes in the same sport have similar builds due to training in similar ways to use the same muscle groups. Cyclists have strong legs because they train to cycle, they didn't wake up one day with massive legs telling them to be a cyclist.

Better air space monitoring. We need to develop technology to accurately detect small drones anyway since thats the direction a lot of militaries are going.
