Hey this happened in Spec Ops the Line

NDP’s Wab Kinew as PM would be an amazing thing for the country. He seems like exactly what we’d need after Carney.

Your lack of arguments is louder than your sarcasm.

It’s a bridge owned by Canada that undercuts a US billionaire owned bridge. It’s a win in my book. And you know what’s worse for the environment? Continuing to feed a warmongering economy down south.

Procedurally generated incoherent non-permanence slop. Like playing some sort of 90s techno music video minus the campiness. Check out Google Genie for an example.

Corporate laws feel like such a joke when they can just open subsidiaries in other countries and bypass the laws their parent companies are beholden to. Canada needs to clamp down on this and show they’re better than their US counterparts, otherwise they’ll lose their soft power advantage on the international stage.

I just realized if Alberta separates Poilievre loses his seat in parliament again lol. It almost sounds worth it…but nah, there’s plenty of other ways Pierre can be humiliated.

No worries. Wasn’t trying to lecture you, just thought your comment was a good segue. I appreciated your fact as well.

Yes and that’s exactly why I use this place. I don’t want another Reddit. I want a space where a different viewpoint can be fostered.

Too bad using religious text to settle geopolitical issues is never a good idea. The fact of the matter is that the state exists. Erasure of a state shouldn’t be on the table and that goes for any country out there no matter how heinous or insignificant. Both Israel and Palestine need to come to an agreement wherein both parties can coexist in the present, otherwise their leadership is failing. I like that speech the Kenyan Ambassador Martin Kimani made to the UN back in 2022 when Russia attacked Ukraine. Sometimes it’s best to let go of historical gripes and to look at how you can work together with the “now”, otherwise you will end up fighting for all eternity.

Of course they threw a complaint about regulations in there. Overcoming short term pains by demolishing our long term barriers is not helpful, especially when it comes to the ecosystem.

Jessie Watters looks like a turtle.

Yup. I get that he’s also walking a tightrope with Alberta’s separatism right now, but even with that matter resolved I don’t think he would truly stand up for the environment and worker’s rights. I’d be happy to be proven wrong, though.

Carney saved us from the immediate dangers of capitulating to the US like the conservatives were ready to do, but he won’t save us from the multinational danger of corporate parasitism. That requires a fundamental reassessment of the key economic concepts behind growth and GDP. Much like decoupling from the US requires a regrettably intolerant attitude (“tolerance of intolerance…” and all that), decoupling from corporate oligarchy requires a determined adherence to supporting the lower and middle class above the upper class. This will no doubt strike a chord with people who have become ingrained to the capitalistic belief system, but it must be done before it’s too late. I personally hope the NDP can rise at the federal level with such a message in order to push back on this form of tyranny.

I’d focus on education and the arts rather than tools of death. Just look at how well it’s serving the US. Meanwhile places like Nepal are able to depose their government without widespread guns. Hearts and minds>toys and slogans.

Dunno how it is everywhere else but in Toronto the FIFA preparations have also fenced off certain public parks around the stadium which were heavily used for through-traffic, forcing pedestrians and cyclists to have to take massive detours around them. It’s particularly annoying because they’ve just been fenced off for weeks now with barely anyone inside except for some half asleep volunteer guards on their phones. How this is legal, I don’t know, but I’m assuming it came with the bribes. Just stinks of classism and corruption and it makes me like this World Cup even less (among all the other reasons).

Out of touch execs still chasing metrics instead of focusing on quality. Their desperation betrays the awareness that an end is near.

The really sinister part is seeing that even some “liberal” Americans have the seeds of conservatism planted in their viewpoints. These are the centrists that tend to say one thing but act out a different way. The brainwashing is deep.

No need to interrupt your enemy while they make mistakes. Just let the US continue to make fools of itself while the government and populace divests further.

You know your government is shit when not showing up to work is your plan for “not interfering with municipal elections” (read: we don’t want to damage the con’s chances any further).
