  • 6 in 10 Canadians say they can never trust Americans the same way again

    Jump

  • We didn't fully trust them.

    But it was convenient to deal with them, based on proximity.

    Now that they've gone full retard that proximity advantage isn't worth what it once was.

  • 6 in 10 Canadians say they can never trust Americans the same way again

    Jump

  • I wonder how many of those already had an opinion of the Americans that was so low it couldn't sink any further?

  • Trump Says He’ll Send Troops to Portland and Sanction “Full Force” Against Americans

    Jump

  • I was expecting that to morph into talking about twinks.

  • Amazon Canada President Shirks Responsibility for Closures

    Jump

  • I was riffing on an old joke.

  • 'Remigration' is the far-right's latest effort to normalize its extreme politics in Canada

    Jump

  • I mean that's why they always try to take the "Freedom" this "Truth" that kind of titles.

    Also trying to co-opt "common sense".

    No, Pierre, that doesn't mean "it seems obvious if you don't think about it very deeply".

  • Carney says international meetings are ‘necessary’ to opening new markets

    Jump

  • Well, yeah. That's how international politics is done.

  • Amazon Canada President Shirks Responsibility for Closures

  • He could be replaced by a very small bash script.

  • Trump Says He’ll Send Troops to Portland and Sanction “Full Force” Against Americans

    Jump

  • Unless he's playing 4D chess I can't comprehend,

    He's playing tiddleywinks but he still can't comprehend the rules.

  • Should Canada implement automatic tax filing?

    Jump

  • For most Canadians I'd say they have all the info they need.

    True. The only people they wouldn't necessarily have all the info for are self-employed or people doing casual labour, or maybe people working remote for foreign companies.

  • starbucks closing stores laying off workers

    Jump

  • It would be cool if this opens up the market for more local cafés to start up and thrive now that there is less of the aggressive competition from well funded foreign chains.

  • Quebec scraps 2035 ban on gas-powered vehicle sales

    Jump

  • Any of these bans I have read are for new vehicles only.

    It would be incredibly wasteful to ban the resale of existing vehicles. (Not to mention politically impossible)

  • 94% of presenters to BC Electoral Reform Committee recommend proportional representation

    Jump

  • "Unfortunately we couldn't come to an agreement on the best system to replace first past the post

    As is always the case when this topic is raised.

    There are passionate proponents for each of the various types of proportional systems, all having their valid arguments, but it always seems to end up in a stalemate.

  • Hate crime bill could criminalize protests, civil liberties’ group says

    Jump

  • There is no point in passing a law, that cannot be enforced.

    That never stopped Harper's government from doing it anyway.

    And in the process wasting the court's time, and unfairly punishing people until those bad laws were eventually and inevitably nullified by the court.

  • Allow me to introduce introduce you to the paradox of tolerance

    Tl;dr: a tolerant society cannot tolerate intolerance.

  • Jimmy Kimmel's show to return to air after suspension over Charlie Kirk comments, says Disney

    Jump

  • To be fair, I stole the idea from Top Gear's final show.

  • Sinclair Will Not Air ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ Upon ABC Return Tuesday

    Jump

  • This is one of the nice things about Trump running this whole thing, is that it'll all be done in a really stupid fashion

    Nice might not be the word I would have chosen, but I agree that it could be a whole lot worse if Trump and company were appointing competent people to do their bidding.

  • Poland to Russia: ‘You have been warned’ so don’t ‘whine’ if your jets are shot down in NATO airspace

    Jump

  • The Russians claimed they have not been over NATO territory.

    Only because they believe it should be their territory.

  • Jimmy Kimmel's show to return to air after suspension over Charlie Kirk comments, says Disney

    Jump

  • I don't think there really is a third option. If he decide to not address this

    He could intentionally avoid mentioning it while an elephant slowly wanders around behind him.

  • Cost of living drives 3 in 4 Canadians to skip eating out, report shows

    Jump

  • A little more than half (51 per cent) of millennials make a purchase from a restaurant at least once a week, followed by 47 per cent of Gen Z

    I remember when I was growing up our family had a restaurant meal only on special occasions. Maybe only 4-5 times a year max.

    Except when I was traveling for work, that's remained my typical pattern for most of my life

    Who are these rich people who are eating out weekly?
