  • This is how it works for many, many businesses. Before you agree to a lease for a coffee shop you make sure that no one else is going to be able to open a coffee shop in the same area. This is how commercial leases work.

  • Despite warnings that these policies could be weaponized by their political opponents to hurt their standing among more moderate voters, a strong majority of the delegates on hand voted for a motion that stated children should be prohibited from gender-related "life-altering medicinal or surgical interventions," and for another that said Canadians should have "bodily autonomy" when it comes to vaccines and other health treatments.

  • The world isn't black and white and not all cops lie. Their testimony lines up with what happened in Ottawa and with the findings of the commission so that lends credibility to what they are saying. There were a couple of thousand cops on the ground who did a professional job and cleared the occupiers with no injuries or deaths.

  • I don't think you're listening to the testimony, reading the transcript, or watching any of the new videos (or reading the articles, really.) The OPS knew they were coming but didn't realize how many locals were going to throw in with the protesters. They assumed that it was going to be just another protest that would evaporate on Monday. They were unprepared for how many people would be there and just how lawless and uncooperative they would be.

    The Toronto police reacted the way they did because they saw what happened in Ottawa.

  • Myriam Webster says that it can include questioning your mental health. A single instance is just the first of several.

    You may be right, though. It doesn't matter in the end, the commenter was just an ass.

  • Comparing anything that is happening that falls short of the systematic murder of more that 10 million people to the systematic murder of 10 million people is going to get you in trouble. This hateful asshole said the quiet part out loud and is now suffering the consequences of her actions. She should have been dismissed immediately.

  • Gaslighting is the act of trying to convince someone that they are crazy. In its simplest form telling someone who is not crazy that they are crazy is gaslighting.

  • At least I didn't try to gaslight anyone. That's just sad.

  • Gaslighting

    Does that ever work or do most or just laugh at you?

  • Ah...I missed the last second "you". My apologies.

    I stand by the rest of my comments.

  • Ah...the classic, "No you are!" gambit. Well played! Well played indeed.

    Most of these people spreading the anti-Canadian hate are making a classic mistake of ego. "Canada is bad for me therefore Canada is bad." It's the same mistake that incels make. Some people have more than me so they are bad and the system is bad and the country is BAD.

    EDIT: Brigades on Lemmy have no power. No one gives a shit about Karma here. You can't silence voices you don't like. Go ahead, downvote. No one fucking cares.

  • They're among the safest, cleanest cities in the world.

  • I love Canada and know how good we have it. I don't give two shits what a bunch of anti-Canadian propagandist trolls have to say.

  • Did everyone from Hexbear and Lemmygrad move to lemm.ee? I notice that that's where most of the anti-Canadian hate is coming from. Was there a brigade message sent out or is this just organic?

  • I have a friend who was a flight attendant for Lufthansa.
