Also better for wildlife and pets.

I know of a friend that had their dog jump out of 6 story apartment because of fireworks in the area. It did not end well.

That's not really how statistics work.

For example, 1 in 10 dentists recommended a specific brand of toothpaste.

You could know 10 dentists in your town and not one of them recommends that specific toothpaste. But in another town 2 out of 10 might. This means between both towns you are left with a 1 out of 10 average.

1/10 is equal to 2/20 = 10%

So, if one town might have a really high shooting rate and 100% of the residents in that town were witnesses and the next town over had no shootings at all.

If we assume both towns have the same number of residents we would be left with a 50% of all residents in the area are witnesses to a shooting. This means if you lived in the town with no shooting and were told 50% of residents were witnesses you would not be able to find a single person to confirm the theory. Even if you knew everyone in your specific town.

Does this mean you and I should stop shopping at stores like Walmart or Costco, The Bay, Home Depot, Lowe's?

Or can we still shop at Walmart but only buy Canadian items?

SmartCentres Real Estate Investment Trust owns the land that Walmart's operate on. They are Canadian owned and generate revenue from rent.

That's action is called expropriation...

There are plenty of examples around the global and what usually plays out next.

The trouble is not that automakers can't continue to produce/assembly, its that prices will skyrocket (higher cost to source materials) which means consumers will need to pay more.

If the game is delisted and you have bought it is it still downloaded and playable.

Lets start poaching America Tech and knowledge workers to immigrat to Canada, could be a excellent opportunity especially with all the cuts and "efficiency restructuring "

I understand the sentiment, but just one thing to note/point out, without argument to your point or view.

These are American business that both employ Canadian people and pay Canadian taxes. The profits are American on the one hand, but the economic stimulus to Canada is a benefit on the other hand.

Personally I am a little conflicted in this, I don't want to see Canadian people loose their jobs.

Though if a foreign owned company is operating inside of our borders with no Canadian presence this would be a no-brainer. I would probably want that type of company to double their resolve and invest in our people with in country manufacturing and production as a example.

A masterpiece, I can't believe it was not nominated for a Oscar.

I guess news about publishing tariff news is not classified as tariff news.

Hit by a playwall.

Why not just say 40% of staff to be terminated.

I know its the same as the fraction, but 40% seems to sound more drastic.

Its interesting that any discussions about road salt always start with cars being the leading argument. Car dependency is so intertwined in our current society.

Also, worth noting salt causes corrosion to cars, infrastructure, and not to mention in large quantities causes negative environmental effects, but gravel has a chance of chipping my windshield?!

The different between salt and gravel damage to a car is just time span. Us humans are just really bad at perceiving long term effects. So naturally gravel being what cases damage sooner to a car is assumed to be far worse.

Now if you think of snow removal on sidewalks and walkways. Gravel and sand, or just compacting the snow like they do in Sweden is just as effective.

Here is some videos of snow removal at the pedestrian level, notice no salt is used on pedestrian infrastructure such as walkways or trails.
