“Labour shortage”

I’m not wholly against TFWs, there are definitely situations where they make sense. However there is zero reason why fast food and restaurants brought in 8,000 TFWs in 2023.

Better bring in some TFWs for those high skill Tim Hortons jobs.

Pretty much every job has a do t talk to journalists clause.

Every company I’ve worked for has it.

We just call Doug Ford (the Premier of Ontario) directly on his personal cell phone and he shows up with his tiny shovel.

I’d shop at Loblaws if the quality was better.

But why pay premium for worse vegetables than metro and worse meat than Costco?

Potatoes should not go bad after a week, that was the least straw for me.

Yeah, just disrespectful to veterans in my opinion

Prefix to my comment:

Oct 7th was an atrocity deserving of the harshest of backlash. It was in no way justified despite the unfair and frustrating issue of Israeli settlement and the division of Palestine by colonial powers in the 20th century. Israel’s response has been too aggressive in how they’ve fully disregarded humanitarian aid in their undiscerning destruction of Gaza in the year since.

Now my comment:

I think it was insensitive and stupid to play this song on a day to remember our troops who gave their lives or continue to fight for Canadian freedom and sovereignty. I don’t think it added to the cause of Gaza, I think it just distracted and created more division.

Really it was a foolish thing to do.

I kind of love it when they do this

My one likes to put her paws on my jugular, and I think that’s too much power over my life for one cat.

My puke bucket holds wood chips now.

Huh, when I was sick my parents just made me sleep in the bathtub (they’d put towels in and make it special)

My wife and I both got a stomach flu earlier this year and we have a mop bucket I can’t look at the same.

Some hobbit in 3000 years will get one and use it to display their fresh fruit collection

Stupid performative bullshit is so hot right now

They’ve got what plants crave.

We’ve all moved on to using hard plastic popcorn containers instead of bowls for holding fruit and eating.

Get with the times oldie!

I did like him yelling at those hecklers.

Oh my god, in a few years we’ll lose them completely!

Honestly I haven’t had to say something in almost a decade

When parties have unfavourable leaders who spend all their time quibbling nobody shows up to vote.

Everyone I know was saying Mike Schreiner was the only adult in the room but Green was a wasted vote, and all Doug had to do was say nothing to win.

That’s certainly a problem, but in general he does not come across as working class, he comes across as quite wealthy. He also doesn’t get policy into the news often enough, despite some things on their platform sounding good.

And then he hasn’t done anything to assuage concerns NDP policy will be bad for the economy, which if you look at the US it’s clear the perception of being good for the economy is at the forefront of everyone’s minds (whether or not that’s based in reality).

I did have someone mention they felt that having a Sikh PM would not be good with escalating tensions with India. That line felt kinda racist to me. I don’t think that’s why he doesn’t connect with voters though.
