Can confirm they are not interconnected. It's not a cabal.

• more than not
• safe as the 17 other vaccines you took in your life.
• death.

The risk with taking it is death, but not as likely because the COVID risk is reduced.

Look. You can trust the experts or you can vilify them. Our PHA isn't paid to push drugs. They get paid whether you in particular take the vaccine or not; and if you don't, it's a vaccine - and maybe a house and a job - that's given to someone else after you.

They all suck

The people wrecking the show don't want you to vote. Congrats: you've both-sides'ed this thing and now you're not voting. Apathy is their goal.

They won.

Wow. Such edge.

We can't rely on the government anymore

Elect better government. We're so busy fear-voting to prevent republicanada that we don't have the space for anything else. Get those aristocrat wanna-be assholes out, and then the race is between negligent, earnest, and whackadoo; but that's one better option than we had before.

There is no problem so bad it can't be made worse. Don't both-sides this thing, because that's a fallacy and you're their puppet when you do. Don't throw away half-assed and let absolutely horrible take its place.

Phone your damned MLA and MP and roast them over the coals a bit.

Demand better of the people Canada had to choose to run the show.

More along that point, does a hospital admin who shirks basic human responsibility to report an outbreak to prevent negative media attention deserve

• unemployment,
• criminal sanctions,
• public shaming, or
• all three ?

No content. Just video.

I don't read the newspaper to watch TV.

the best the Liberals can do is 100K?!

I'm trying to compare it to the NDP or Conservative numbers to get a good comparison from when they were in federal office, and all I can see is they didn't do nothing, so it's a low bar. The 99 year lease deal Mr Harper signed away to a foreign country is kinda a negative bonus, so they're looking particularly bad.

I admit this is news to me.l, though, so I don't know what to expect. Based on your personal experience mobilizing proper concrete high density housing during a pandemic recovery, how many should they have planned instead? Be ready to show your work because I want to learn how you came to your assessment.

The "show box" is the only way. Sorry. It happened when we overpopulated the heck out of this planet and started taking agro land for sprawling ticky tack housing.

Remind me what the difference is?

• ticks who bleed the poor and discard them
• edict-proclaiming hypocrites
• usually guilty of their worst sins
• mobs sharing a brain cell flock to them
• can't seem to maintain anything
• cant seem to help people

I'm not seeing it.

They're working on new reactors that eat that waste. You missed that?

Changing our relationship with the UK in this climate of increasingly grabby fringe groups is a huge risk.

We have bigger fish to fry.

This will need some more reading.

Canada's best achievements were made under a minority government. The idea that we'll lose the configuration that requires the most open consensus to move forward, that idea doesn't sit well.

We'd locate it where earthquakes - those not caused by fracking - have been historically very rare.

That's just room-temperature-IQ smart.

Also, Nuke plants are pretty resilient, as long as they aren't hit with a massive quake and then a massive tsunami.

Also, Nuke plants historically release LESS radioactive material over their lifetime than a coal plant; and it's not even close. Go look.

Butbutbut all the rich old men will be dead by then. Can we not just suck and sell oil more so they can get another yacht NOW?

Again, not to the people who already live in neighbourhoods comprised of single family homes.

You got yours, so F everyone else? Classic ladder-yanker prattle.

one thing you won’t find, though, are detached homes and smaller buildings.

Ah, so Paris grew up.

The downtown core of Toronto got denser and it got completely soulless. It’s tower after tower that block daylight from reaching street level, leaving no sunlight but for those living at the top, and endless stretches of shoebox apartments where you’re lucky if you get a balcony.

Sorry kid. You can't have space AND fit people as well. Since every rooftop needs to be a garden, at least that's a nice place to hang out.

You can't solve it by mid-ride or low-boys, either -- you need the economies of scale and minimal-density to save on infrastructure; and get better transit that is sufficient on property taxes before the user-pay system and road-tax ideas both die. Because no one's paying for the absolute shit Translink pulled these last few years. You need the high density to create and maintain the shared greenspace between the clusters, so it doesn't end up looking like Detroit or Jersey. You need the high densite to get that land BACK, as well as pull people out of the delta where we NEED that land for responsible local farming. (didn't think of that in your mid-rise plan, did you?)

Sorry. Towers are the reality if you want to live in the cities -- just, if we do it right, with greenways of sanity to break up the tower clusters and cool things down.. Kitimat's nice, though.

Kanata, Nepean, Bayshore.

We tried a bus commute. But Nepean to Hazeldean was just not happening.

Now they've got the train built by the guy who was fired from the vancouver job because his warm-weather trains couldn't even hack a vancouver winter, we're not surprised about the issues. He's doing waterloo next, so, yeah.

In context, the focus on Toronto as an example makes sense.

Give the guy a pass this time.

Republicans only care about kids before they're born; then they're just regular po'pe'po like everyone else they hate.
