Weird, I could have sworn Babcock was illiterate.

Yeah I guess I just meant in theory.

Not an American, so honest question here: Is this a valid target for civil forfeiture since it’s proceeds from crime?

You know, instead of the usual $300 cops usually find suspicious in someone’s wallet.

New path to a balanced budget is a lot of doublespeak though.

Makes me think he’s about to privatize something.

The floor plans are also straight up bizarre. I was in the market recently and I saw two en-suite bathrooms in a 2-bed 3-bath. Kitchen/living/dining combos that could barely serve any of those purposes. Dens that were 4sqft corners in a kitchen, or slight recess in a wall. Interior glass walls to compensate for no window in a bedroom.

Then there were just absolutely strange finishing design choices, like a wall mounted intercom in the entrance you had to kneel to read the screen or reach the keypad. I’m not that tall. Some of the UGLIEST post-modern tile work I’ve ever seen, bar fridges masquerading as kitchen fridges, shallow tubs, low shower heads (again, I’m 5’9 this is not usually an issue.)

We made it! I never thought I’d live to see this day!

Conservative fiscal responsibility has always been a lie though. The voters are just not capable of fact checking it.

If elected we will make Marc Serre take a shower.

Jonathan Banks though.

Is that better… or worse?

Unless attitudes at the MLB have changed in recent years, I remember them being less favorable to Canadian teams on a normal day. Americans have a larger population of baseball fans and that’s where the money is, I fully believe team management would not want to seem antagonistic.

I acknowledge that he’s doing the right thing for now; which to be clear is: prioritizing Canadian interests.

I’m anxious this is going to be like early-covid Ford, where he will be very eager to get back to normal once things even slightly ease up.

It’s not a fact if it’s false. That’s not an interpretation, it’s measurable.

If you’re suggesting that the problem is calling it a lie implies intent then you shouldn’t be calling them facts.

My ADHD is not even remotely that interesting.

Mail in ballots have already been sent out. I want to be hopeful. I expect to be disappointed.

Anyone who disagrees with Ford’s policies needs to get out and vote because this is not even close to a lock.

It is no longer good enough for us to say “well, at least it’s not as bad as the states”

They are unburdened with self reflection. At least it proves we’re bothering them with it.

The media is publicizing these lies to keep people from getting the idea that they need to do something.

“Oh good his voters are turning on him” helps placate the opposition. It keeps people from wanting to do something.

I agree that we don’t necessarily need to make a big huff over this, being a relatively isolated incident I think it should just be investigated in the same way other inappropriate police conduct is… oh wait I see the problem.

Londoners overall are very supportive of it given the fact it has been in place for 22 years now without a gov’t repealing it

In Canada it’s a politically successful strategy to agitate the suburbs. Even if implemented at the start of a liberal government, conservatives would be able to get rid of congestion fees in as little as 4 years.

Look at what Ontario is doing to the bike lanes in Toronto. It has been a struggle to get the bare minimum of biking infrastructure put in over the last 3 mayors of Toronto and the Provincial Conservatives have successfully campaigned suburbanites against the bikes lanes that are not even present in their own neighborhoods.

After seeing the success in New York I would love for something like that in Toronto’s downtown core; however serious and aggressive improvement of the TTC would be needed.

Right now a small power outage can cause massive delays. We need more lines, redundant systems, and a diversity of routes to let people redirect themselves when necessary.
