  • This is an old conservative trick: 1) defund public services 2) divert blame for the negative results on an 'enemy class' of citizen who are abusing and breaking public services 3) distract with a witch-hunt for these enemies;

    In the 80s the enemies were "welfare queens", now they're immigrants.

  • Or even more basically:

    • what's good for business is generally not what's good for society.

  • They aren't gullible so much as living up to the American ideal. What's more American than being frightened, angry, greedy, ignorant and selfish, while telling yourself you are god's chosen?

  • Of all his disinformation victories, anti-vaxx has to be Putin's personal fave.

  • lol wut? Because cloud data storage isn't a thing any more? Because giving money and data to foreign companies is awesome? What do you know that the rest of the world doesn't?

    Even if they only ever hosted for the fed gov, this would still be a worthwhile project, if only to stop spending that money abroad.

  • Nah, they got kompromat on her. Bribery will get you some baubles but it's too voluntary and you can always get outbid. You gotta get coercive if you really want to own someone's soul.

  • 11 months after the fact, we are getting to the truth of the matter.

    Unfortunately for all of us, the disinformation was virtually instant.

    We are so fucked.

  • This is actually a really complex issue, it's not just a matter of government will or changing a law or two.

    Medical school + internship can be a 7 to 10 year educational process. The process of vetting all of that education occurring in foreign nations to make sure it meets our medical standards can be a years-long project in itself, which requires some level of access and co-operation from the foreign nation. This obviously can't be done on a case by case basis. Canada has undertaken this successfully with some other countries... which is why (in BC anyways) we are blessed with a bunch of really great South African doctors.

    One of the big hitches is this: no country wants its doctors going overseas. It takes a somewhat unique case, where a nation has an excess of doctors perhaps, and where govt and medical associations agree they should embark on standardizing their medical training with a foreign nation and start exporting some of their doctors.

    On the Canadian side, the biggest impediment is likely our own medical associations. They are the ones finally responsible for accrediting foreign education, which you can imagine requires a lot of diligence, and we don't want them rushing this process. We might ask though, whether protectionism slows them down more. They are a professional association, and they don't want to open floodgates to foreign doctors who increase competition and make it harder for their members to have profitable businesses - which would discourage Canadians from entering the career and only further exacerbate our medical shortage.

  • If you're referring to popular vote share, it's not a very meaningful number in terms of impact on the federal election.

    The only number that matters in the end is seats in the house, of which the Liberals won 152 vs 120 for the fascist party - that's roughly a 25% margin... not a tight race in any meaningful way.

    Not saying it can't or won't happen here, just saying characterizing this last election as a 3% contest is grossly inaccurate in real terms.

  • Wow, brilliant take: anyone who can't GUARANTEE what will happen in the future is obviously not worth listening to.

  • The other 38% is likely consumed in oil and gas camps, the true heartland of Albertan separatism.

  • God, realtors are disgusting.

  • Another British Columbian, can confirm we have morons like this here.

  • What a fucking doofus.

  • About 20% of them want to be. Alberta's Premier, Danielle Smith, is a Trump-loving separatist.

  • "It's vital to the economy that we keep building homes Canadians can't afford."

  • Privacy services tend to be based in European countries because they have stronger data privacy laws and insulation from court orders etc.

  • Thanks, Trudeau!!!

  • I will gladly embrace China as soon as they embrace human rights and maybe cut back on the genocide a little.
