    Supposed.

    let their emotions cast their votes[.] Conservatives aren’t much better but we would’ve likely seen a different change of approach on how things are [run].

    No. We would have seen the cons capitulate completely and invite our new king. What part of everything the cons have done over 40nyears gives a different impression?

    NDP

    Had no chance of winning even a minority. And they won't, as long as we need to focus on not getting conservatives driving our country into the dirt like they've done to our cousins in America.

    It's so tedious to repeat this.

  • The US has extremely strict and aware water safety protocols. It would take just 1 whistleblower to [take down] this operation.

    Had. HAD. The US has fired many/most of its inspectors.

    75% of American drinking water requires treatment for one thing or another. One of those treatments is supplied by a single vendor out of a single plant in a flood-prone area. Apparently only recently did it receive federal staffing to improve security. This is only one of the many weak links in a supply chain with now absolutely zero oversight.

    I wish I was kidding.

  • Even in Canada, where mental health is still a value-add for most of us and not a right even under our current system, we are offered a fund with some jobs to use for either physiotherapy or mental health, and it's a limited fund.

    Give us a choice, and 10/10 times we will prioritize being able to walk and move and sleep effectively over feeling good about it.

  • I was three years in k2k. I thought I was ready for it. I thought a walking commute down McLeod trail in t2n made me resilient and I'd do fine.

    I was wrong.

    Pay attention to how you're doing and don't be a hero. The weather does not care about you and it will kill you if you let it -- that's the lesson I got from the region of this country that is its namesake.

    ...walking up March Rd past Terry Fox, into the December wind, tears rolling down my cheeks from the wind but then freezing in place because of the cold. It was then I remembered I'd had 3 socks in my combats in Calgary and 3 layers of wool over my face (and ski goggles) so I didn't lose pieces.

    Don't get weather PTSD. Be safe.

  • My 1990s CF infantry boots - bought new - were used daily for 20 years, Calgary snow and Vancouver rain. Another 10 years of occasional use and another 10 years in the closet because of an injury. But it's getting fixed and I will be using them again.

    Zipper? You and I have different footwear.
