    Baltimore Bridge Collapse

    Biggest cause of the disaster is the whole reason they all go to Baltimore in the first place, lack of a requirement to use tugs. Lower standards can create opportunities, they can also show why many places have higher standards.

    Trudeau Popularity - or not. Nanos research

    I would argue we don’t measure emissions properly. If your not measuring the end user and the process to get there, your really not measuring correctly. China for example is 1/3 of emissions. That being said, most of that is emissions they generate producing goods to sell to the West. I also...

    Trudeau Popularity - or not. Nanos research

    Don’t forget all the rules in place for it making it basically useless if you aren’t a seasonal worker. Make above a certain amount that year you claim? It gets clawed back. Literally just a wealth redistribution system. Oh everyones laid off because of Covid? EI isn’t good enough, we need to...

    Just did 3.5 months of parental leave recently. My employer doesn't have top up. Definitely a bit jealous of those that have it. Not to mention I accidentally miscalculated my weeks so that left a couple grand on the table for EI as my partner doesn't make enough to get max EI well I do.

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    Yeah I don’t agree with killing civilians and calling them collateral. It would not have been acceptable for Canada to kill Quebecers to get the FLQ or the British to kill tons of Irish to get the IRA. Killing terrorists doesn’t mean you get to kill everyone else in the way. I get the...

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    Depends, are they saying they wish for freedom, or are they saying exterminate the Jews? Some who chant it are 100% advocating genocide, but context matters. There are some who chant that who genuinely want a free Palestine. There is a reason no one is being charged for saying that, it isn’t...

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    How is it not? They are killing people of a specific ethnicity and religion, in a attempt to drive them out of their homes. Is that not ethnic cleansing? Which is a form of genocide. I am not saying Israel in general is doing it, I am saying the settlers are. Actually I am very aware of what...

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    That still doesn’t mean you can commit genocide. You could also state why do the Palestinians feel the need to push the Israelis out? Its a chicken and egg type scenario. Its only going to stop when both sides are making efforts for it to stop. Israel actively expanding isn’t acting in good faith.

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    Considering 1) they are doing it right now in the West Bank, it isn’t a maybe. This would just be a expansion of their practices. And 2) since when did we get so tolerant of genocide? What they advocate isn’t far off to what the Germans advocated just prior to WWII. Read the stages of the...

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    ‘ In Canada, section 83.01 of the Criminal Code[1] defines terrorism as an act committed "in whole or in part for a political, religious or ideological purpose, objective or cause" with the intention of intimidating the public "…with regard to its security, including its economic security, or...

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    The Jewish settlers who want to build homes in Gaza The Jewish settlers who want to build homes in Gaza It might be time to declare these settler organizations state funded terrorist groups. I am pretty sure driving people from their homes for ethnic cleansing based off a religious ideology...

    Moscow Theatre Attack - 22 March 2024

    Russias involvement in Syria, Chechnya, the oppression of Muslims in Russia, etc. Most major powers have a reason for IS/Islamists to hate them. China, Russia, Britain, USA, Australia, France, even Canada.

    Cost of housing in Canada

    The other major thing to consider with increased home prices is it results in a lot of other increases. We still haven’t seen this fully come to fruition yet as the re-assessments won’t have happened to everyone yet. Increased insurance because your home is more expensive to replace. Increased...

    The problem is the people who tend to uprise and revolt are the youth. Who are disproportionately affected by all this. To keep any dictatorship, government, etc. going you only need 3 things. 1) jobs 2) housing and 3) food. The job opportunities for the youth are garbage right now, next to...

    60-69 year olds who still had mortgage averaged 256k on that with a total debt average of 436k. 70+ year olds, 11% still carry a mortgage and that mortgage balance averaged 217k. 15% of 70+ carry a Heloc owing a average of 124k. Thats a decent proportion of boomers. Not to mention it’s about...

    Cost of housing in Canada

    The equity might get less diluted due to inheritance, however a lot of boomers have Helocs and equivalent lines of credit they are living off of due to the increase in the value of the home. This is allowing many to live the high life in their golden years or to survive if they failed to...

    The Unintended Consequences of Diversity Statements

    Another big thing with DEI initatives they don’t end. Right now the Public service is over 50% women yet it still has preferential hiring for women. The moment you go past the equality point it seizes to be equity and becomes oppression/discrimination. Discrimination is wrong, hiring someone...

    Cost of housing in Canada

    A million dollars out where I live will get you a large water front home, a mansion, or 1000 acres with a house. Literally saw one a few months ago for 1 million with 1000 acres, its own private lake (well as private as can be, own all the land surrounding it), and a large house. 30 min from the...

    Hamas invaded Israel 2023

    Maybe if Israel stopped annexing land that isn’t theirs, forcibly driving the inhabitants from their homes if not outright murdering them, and essentially having a apartheid state the world would view them more favourably. As to who started this round, at the end of the day there never really...
