As mayor there isn't anything he can do about it. He might be able to persuade the town council to have fuck off taxes for the site of the billboard though.

As a private citizen there's lots more we can do, though. Somebody out there probably should.

No. I don't want to have to drive through the USA to get to BC. Let them have the South of Alberta. Call it North Montana.

Some were, some weren't. This goes back almost to the beginning of Google Maps, but seems they've started to standardize them recently. They claim they started before Trump's inauguration.

What @GrizzlyBur@lemmy.ca said before me, but also, try out Corner Gas. It's family safe and also hilarious. It's been credited with introducing other Canadians to Saskatchewan culture since 2004.

I'm getting Microsoft, Clinton & Bush vibes here...

Seems the consensus now is a natural born citizen is one with birthright citizenship; so anyone born to a US citizen counts as well.

If the USA successfully annexes Canada Musk would qualify since he was born to a Canadian citizen who would now be a US citizen.

Gaming keyboards are also usually linear, but that's not a hard rule.

Clearly it's a queef Dutch oven.

One more series I need to read...

🤔

Well yes, it's the lightning that makes the inscription.

A CPU is just a rock we hit with magic lightning...

I'ma smother you with buffalo sauce and lick it off your naked body with a side of bleu cheese.

The British one wouldn't be the best choice. Not exactly powerful....

When Canada abolished the penny I was advocating for renaming our currency the pound, just so we could divide it up into 20 shillings. Each shilling would of course still be 5¢.

There will be holdouts. In my part of Canada all the rural roads are laid out in a 1 mile x 2 mile grid. Nobody every says a farm is 3.2km away. It's 2 miles. Even changing all the road signs is cheaper than moving roads to make more sense in the metric system.

Otherwise for long-ish distances we're completely metric.

It's weirder when you look at Canada vs USA. Mileage here is usually written L/100km, but back in the day the cars were exactly the same but the mileage in Canada was better because the the US gallon is only ~83% the size of a proper gallon.

It's been Canada's official standard for decades. It's just starting to hit the general population though.

TIL I have no family :(

My sister started calling me "little brother" about the time I got taller than her. Before that we were just using first names.
