try to cancel student debt, Republicans block it
"Democrats just aren't trying hard enough!"
Democrats suspend payments while they figure out a way around the Republican blocking measures
"This is purely performance, if they cared they'd cancel it! Both sides!"
Republicans get majority control over Executive and both halves of the Legislature, start collecting again
"Democrats just aren't fighting Trump hard enough!"
It's amazing how Trump could literally do anything on stage and still get votes but Kamala had a single major flaw with Gaza that was STILL less unhinged than Trump's Gaza positioning and got absolutely torn to shreds. Amazing.
Word hard, picture easy, me angry!!!
Yeah idk why people get mad about shit they clearly didn't read.
Per the email text and Plex's policy, they are correct - only Server Owners need the Pass.
That said I moved to Jellyfin months ago when they announced it.
Yeah I hope the fact that both the NDP and the LPC got screwed in BC on so many ridings causes their hopeful coalition government to actually implement voting reform this time.
That's not unreasonable. Religious types trend conservative/fundamentalist globally.
And Noem bragged about shooting her dog. And RFK Jr is the bear roadkill guy.
What the fuck is wrong with these people?
Romney did WHAT??
In ordinary circumstances I agree but with an external threat I kind of wish it was a majority.
At this point I hope they form government with NDP, and NDP agrees to not interfere with foreign policy at all but get concessions domestically, which is probably the best outcome of this election for Canada overall. Hopefully the number of seats that went Con off of vote splits for both NDP and Liberal actually causes voting reform to happen.
I completely agree to be clear.
But "major party" means something in election parlance, and unfortunately because of all the required strategic voting, it means NDP won't be at the next debate.
The election results (and polling on leader specifically) do not back that claim up.
Pierre is very not popular - when Trudeau quit he had a higher approval rating than Pierre. People this time were voting for the party, not for Pierre.
NDP aren't even a major party anymore with 7 seats, sadly
Am I missing something here??? You just restated my original point to me as though we're disagreeing with each other.
What? The guy I replied to said "oh where are the products on market, I guess oppressing women is too important". That was literally the point of my comment was how absurdist of a take that was for the same reason you just said.
One company failed to bring an announced product to market, must be discrimination! The lack of results is proof that they're not trying to solve the problem! Investors are committing capital in 3 different companies to fake interest in the idea in order to continue to oppress women!
Neglect of research into women's healthcare is real, we don't need to invent bogeymen where there isn't one.
Buddy they're in human trials with the FDA to bring a male pill to the market, and this startup is selling an injection. Idk what you're on about.
For the record, I agree with you - I live in Manitoba, with the highest indigenous and Metis population and a poor province. First Nation's people still suffer deep inequality and systemic barriers to success. That's the disclaimer.
Canada has made a tremendous amount of progress socially and systemically in a very short period of time. 30 years ago residential schools were still operating. Many forms of discrimination were still legal and socially accepted. Open racism was much worse. Many more communities had no water supplies and no economic prospects, and no federal government support.
Canada has a long way to go - hundreds of years of oppression cannot be undone in 30 years. But the fact that we're able to make progress so quickly is indicative of the fact that our society is free to push for these sorts of changes and see results. We have an Indigenous premier! That would have been entirely unthinkable just a third of a lifetime ago. Many forms of discrimination have been made illegal, federal funds have been directed for direct and indirect support, water plants have been built, languages are being taught and preserved, and the social perspectives are massively different. We have much work to do, but I don't think we should be dismissive of the systems that have allowed us to do lots of work already.
You can also do advance voting at any time at your nearest Elections Canada office! I voted last Saturday.
It's even simpler than that - the US is paying, actively, 20k USD per person at CECOT. The US is fully in control over that arrangement.
It's an import tax on imported goods.
I'm the CEO of the Orange Company, an American company. I sell oranges for $1. It's the winter and Florida has no oranges for me to sell. So I call up a business in South America and have them send me oranges, $1 million of oranges.
The Orange Company pays them $1 million. When the oranges arrive in the US, the US Federal government charges me a 10% tariff on my imported oranges - $100k. The Orange Company pays the US government a 10% tariff, or $100k, for importing $1 million of oranges.
I then sell my oranges to American consumers. Because my cost of goods went up, I can't sell for $1 anymore. So I pass on the 10% increase in orange cost to my customers by selling oranges for $1.10.
That's what a tariff is, how it works, and how it is effectively a sales tax.
