And I read it too, thank you very much. My classmates in Grade 5 had better name-based insults. Try harder.

Why is that every time something unfortunate happens we feel the need to drag up someone's entire life and air it to everyone that will listen... like we were 3 years old on the play ground... it is as if these people don't have anything going on in their lives, and they want to see someone else suffer for once.... The guy took someone's life FFS, nobody can change that. he'll have to live with that every day of his life ..

Anyone with indexed incomes or pensions don't really care. The BoC can't raise rates to fight inflation because our governments and Canadians in general are so far in debt, they couldn't service a 2% increase in rates. We have borrowed ourselves between a rock and a hard place. But then, so has most of the western world. What is really disturbing is Canadian personal debt is in the top three or four countries when it comes to debt to income and debt to GDP ratios.

A good solution would be if we considered every possible way to fight covid instead of putting all of our eggs in one basket with the vaccines. Politicians act like this is an all hands on deck situation yet they made covid into a single-source contract.

1) A restaurant can't refuse you service because you're black, but sites discriminate against commentary that is accurate and highly appropriate, but unwanted (ie, conservative). You're protecting the restriction of people's right to free speech, and being coy about it because you personally like this brand of particular discrimination. That's disgusting. FYI CBC, which cougar mentioned specifically, is a public broadcaster. I pay them a lot more taxes than most people do, they have no right to stifle my opinion as a taxpayer.

The actual case that needs to be made is that sites like FB and Twitter aren't held to "journalistic standards" (lol) and subjected to certain laws (which I don't recall) because they're not considered content creators or editors. They are, however, carefully cultivating their highly political narratives with the use of selective content-blocking, and in a lot of cases they get their "fact-checks" 100% wrong.
