Did you post the rights listed at the landlord and tenant board?
I did, which was after he told us that tenants have no rights. 🫠

The CFL should try a season of four downs. I enjoy watching the NFL just for that reason alone. What say you?
It's the main reason I don't like the CFL, but with the wider fields and the bigger endzones, I'm not sure how great it would be.
Either way, I'll be probably still be watching the NFL.

Average home score in CFL 26.6. Average away score 24
Average home score in NFL 23.2. Average away score 20.9
Fair enough. Probably some confirmation bias on my part.

Like I said, it's a matter of perspective. I don't have any opinion about the CFL other than I find it less entertaining, as do most of the football fans in Canada outside of the Prairies.

The rules of CFL are to difficult for you? FFS you should've known them when you were 7.
Where did I say that? 😆
The problem with Punt-FL rules is that they're boring, not "too difficult". 2-and-out, 2-and-out, 2-and-out...

Predictably, you have nothing intelligent to add and cower in your little corner like a chihuahua barking at the big dogs when they walk past his yard
There's nothing to add. All I have to do is poke, and you melt down into deranged ranting, digging up months (or even year) old debates in which you clowned yourself, but re-imagining them here for a non-existent audience.
Go outside. Talk to a woman (or a man, if that's your thing - no judgement here).

Regardless of what you and the others think of these threats, I'm sure NATO takes them very seriously.
Evidently not, since they've repeatedly called Russia's bluff, crossed a series of Putin's balogna red lines, and the nukes have predictably not been launched. That inconvenient fact is something that throws a pretty big wrench in your logic - one that I'd be stunned if you actually tried to address.

NATO is trying to avoid a confrontation with putin....he is holding on to power with his finger tips, he also has the keys to the nuclear locker or worse chemical weapons...
and his threats of "red lines" have been crossed over and over again, and revealed as impotent.
Bullying with nuclear and chemical weapons is an actual red line for the rest of the world (including China). It's not going to happen just for the sake of a murderous dictators' vanity.

Yawn
You figure what you're doing here is making reasonable arguments? 🤣

Afd in Germany and Le Pen's party in France are definitely more pro-Russia than pro-Ukraine.
Trump supporters may not be pro-Russia but certainly not pro-Ukraine either.
Ukraine is one of the areas you can distinguish between just a partisan Republican and a die-hard, window-licking MAGA chud. The former remembers the Soviet Union and understands that Vladimir Putin is just as bad or worse. The latter just slurp whatever batshit nonsense the opinion clowns on Fox News or Twitter etc are saying, and couldn't form a nuanced thought to save the lives of their children.

CFL is better football than NFL, hands down. The problems with CFL are:
That's really a matter of perspective. Football is my favorite sport to watch, but the CFL is pretty much unwatchable for me. The rules are a problem for many (particularly 3 downs, the low-score games, the bigger field and the punting), and there is a chasm of talent between the NFL and the CFL. The contrast is stark, but even if the NFL didn't exist I'm not sure I would be interested in the CFL. 🤷♂️
I've lived and worked in Toronto (45 minutes away now) and I never saw anyone making fun of it or bullying it. It was just completely irrelevant - something nobody even mentions or thinks about.

Not just vague - often just really dumb. Ooh wow great. You're not going to participate in the WEF. That will solve so many of our problems. 🙄

PP will commit to nothing
Makes me wonder what he is all about except uncomplaining. He is very good at deflecting but, that is what politicians do LOL
I wonder the same thing, but at the same time it's probably smart to keep things policy-light. There have been a lot of politicians over the years lose what look to be unlosable elections by making themselves the centre of attention on deeply unpopular issues. John Tory and Tim Hudak ran masterclasses on that, so Poilievre is probably better sitting back and watching the Liberals hit the bottom of the ocean without any assistance.

They are listed there. Am not sure what your end game is. Me naming you 5, and you dismissing the written laws as being sham laws? Whats your end game here, would cut a lot of back and forth out.
He's just digging his heels in. To say landlords and/or tenants don't have rights when those rights are enshrined in the Residential Tenancies Act (in Ontario) is absurd, but he'll never admit it.

Why would it make sense to tariff imports of goods which are not manufactured in the United States?
If the only reason they're not produced in the United States is because domestic industry is stifled by production overseas with no environmental or worker standards, it very well could make sense.
Part of the silliness with environmental policy (at least in North America) is that we impose standards on carbon etc here that cost our industry money, and then companies offshore that production to Sri Lanka or somewhere where they don't apply. Those industries are fair game for tariffs, IMO.
47 minutes ago, Rebound said:Trump, on the other hand, proposes a 10 to 20 percent tariff on ALL imported goods and a SIXTY PERCENT Tariff on ALL imported Chinese goods.
Trump's a buffoon and his policies are buffoonish. What he does understand, however, is the resentment people feel about situations like the one above. I don't for a second think he'll solve anything or he gives a shit about helping anyone but himself, but there's a low cunning involved in acknowledging and amplifying the anxieties he speaks to.

A tariff makes sense when foreign competition is undercutting an existing business, especially when prices are being cut because of foreign government subsidies.
There are all sorts of reasons when tariffs make sense. Trump's understanding of macro economics (and almost everything, really) is too simplistic to understand when and where they make sense.
Tariffing China is one of the few things I think he was right about - ahead of the curve. It might be inflationary, but that doesn't mean it's bad for the average American worker. Let's be real - most of the money saved offloading jobs to Bangladesh etc doesn't end up as a discount on the average person's grocery bill. Some of it does, of course, but just as much or more ends up improving the margins for corporate profits. That's the reality. That's why the middle class is disappearing.
Ultimately some of the stuff Trump complains about is valid, in its own way. The problem is that he just takes those complaints and amplifies them and represents them in the dumbest possible package.

The union and members are upset abut going in bit not upset enough to take a cut in pay for saving bus fare, clothing purchase, meals, day care, gas, parking fees or other employment expenses etc etc that they saved for the past 4 years but in fact, were striking to het more and higher wages.
and that's always the dishonest conceit of these complaints. This isn't about worker's rights or anything of the sort. This is about the public sector demanding and demanding, and never conceding anything.
In my mind, it's not even just about them demanding more when they don't deserve it, it's that they're already objectively getting much more than they're warranted. Every disingenuous complaint always boils down to the money.
As you say, the union is supposed to be for the little guy, but that's not how it works in the public service ones. Folks complain about the corporations swindling the people, but they're just one side of the coin. The other side is our monolithic public service - now ~25% of the workforce and a domineering political class of its own.

What would you call it if more people will die due to a bad political decision?
1. It's not necessarily a bad political decision, and definitely not as black-and-white as you make it out to be.
2. Not everyone can be saved (or is willing to be saved).
3. Resources are not infinite, therefore priorities need to be established on their most effective use. Resources to one group mean resources don't go to another. Someone will die as a result.

Kind of a straw-man there, isn't it? Why don't we talk about removing hospitals altogether?

I'm not trying to police anything. I pointed out that the topic isn't nearly as cut-and-dry as the opposing tribes make it out to be.

If any non PS tried this, they would be at home, permanently. Almost all Canada have no pity for the PS and they are only making it worse.
When Conservatives get in and they slash the PS, a lot of them will be at home LOL
That’s really the crux of the matter, isn’t it? They’re already significantly overcompensated (counting their benefits) and it’s almost impossible to get rid of low-performers. While Canadians overpay for unproductive PS employees, they are going to battle for even more entitlements?
Justin and the Liberals sold Canada out to the Public Service Unions, a huge voting bloc they know they can count on. Now the consequences for that come home…
