Hey kids, wanna get cancer?

How is shipping cars over on giant container ships that are some of the worst sources of pollution on the planet while building them in places with worse environmental standards good for the environment?

Eh there's still plenty of people doing work in factories. The downside is rotating shifts and such but the pay and benefits are comparatively decent

They're also investing heavily in domestic battery plants and retooling auto plants for EV production. There are a lot of jobs in Canada that are well paid and unionized in the industry. Of course they wouldn't be able to compete with China on cost

Agree with the sentiment but these online petitions are worthless in my opinion

It's been downright warm and dry for winter. Definitely going to be a hot and dry summer. Can't wait to be unable to breathe outside for months again!

Unions are trying to recover lost wages because their last agreements were signed before the latest round of high inflation. Going to be lots of strikes in the next few years because of course employers don't want to pay

Japan also has a shrinking population which would contribute to declining housing values though unlike the rest of the world that relies on immigration to counter their plummeting birth rates

Dylan Suitor, Ryan Molony and Aruba Butt are behind 11 now-insolvent corporations that face a "liquidity crisis" with only $100,000 in the bank, the documents say.

Can't be a real name

You gotta hope enough people get screwed to stand up against the bullshit or at least be bothered to show up and vote against the status quo

They're not actually doing much reforming. It's steps in the right direction but nobody is touching fptp

How does it compare to water running through plastic pex pipes in your house?

We're also crawling with ticks these days. Can't take my kids to the neighbourhood park without having to do a thorough check every time

Austerity is still coming when the Cons get in next election cycle

They wouldn't have done any of those programs if they didn't need NDP support to govern. National daycare and dental programs are both NDP ideas that they've been pushing forever

The NDP are certainly not bold enough or left enough for my liking but to say they're not left wing at all is disingenuous

I've got a kid in daycare so we've been sick since August non stop. Covid was in the mix about a month ago, but it was just one among many illnesses
