Don’t do it.

As a general rule, this is a terrible idea. If there are exceptions, it’s clear from your comments that thus is not one of them.

This entire desire is to boost your ego - to validate that your unrequited ‘love’ (crush) made her life better, because you’re such a great guy.

Lwt it go, and grow up a bit more.

Fuck Telus.

And Rogers.

Oh, and of course Bell.

Canadian telecoms are parasites operating as a collusive oligopoly. They need to be destroyed.

God. This man can’t help disappoint.

Alberta put it back in a matter of weeks, because Smith is a Trump-loving traitor.

Curioys how it’s actually selling here.

MacKenzie Scott may be the exception to that rule.

Or she may be shitty in ways we don’t know yet.

Can someone remind me again what we avoided by electing Carney instead of Poilievre?

Apparently tabs are tags.

Alberta got rid of them eight years ago or so, but before that they were extremely one-use items. Super-fragile with an incredibly strong glue. You could NOT have remove them with a razor blade and the precision of a master jeweller.

Besides, annual registration is what - 80 bucks? Not worth it.

The presence of a laugh track is irrelevant. The necessity of one for people to find the show funny is a different matter.

This isn’t new.

I stopped watching TV in the mid-90s when Star Trek TNG turned out to be a disaster, and there was nothing else good on.

Most of the shows from that era (Seinfeld, Married with Children, Malcolm in the Middle), are about horrible people being horrible to each other - with a laugh track! - or about unrealistic people behaving in ridiculous ways (Friends, I’m looking at you!).

Sitcoms are rarely funny, but that’s a long-standing tradition. Shitty and/or cringe-inducing behaviour rule the time slots.

Because in addition to racists, homophobes and bigots, separatists are misogynists?

Calgary was facing a big infrastructure cost to update our EOL fluoridation system. Three counsellors drove the charge to get rid of fluoridation entirely: a ‘stop all government spending!’ con, an anti-science earth mother type, and a progressive who kept screaming ‘we need to address dental care as a societal issue!’

And so we saw tooth decay climb for a decade. When we finally decided to put it back in, the cost was higher than the initial upgrade plus a decade of maintenance would have cost.

Idjits,

Sorry, don’t care about this right-wing sellout anymore. Nothing he says can be trusted.

I would argue that liberal voters don’t wear the party like a brand in the same way that CPC voters do.

I know a lot of people who voted Liberal grudgingly, to keep Poilievre out of power. Carney seemed like a decent sort, although decidedly more conservative than they’d like.

They are PISSED at the party now.

I predict huge gains for the NDP, if Lewis can do a better job of managing his image than Singh did. (Sadly, it helps that he’s white.)

Thing us, planning to sell secrets (or commit violence) is sufficient cause, which implies that promises to leak secrets they don’t (yet) have would be a criminal act.

She’s been working with the separatist vermin who have directly been lobbying the US for the breakup of Canada. If they can show that Sylvestre et al have committed treason, then 46.2(e) might be applicable.

Honestly, they should have gone with sedition.

“Stop requiring oversight or safety on our farms.”

I thought I recognised her name: she is chief of staff to David Bexte, the MP who is trying to pushbthour automatic approval after 90 days for new fertilizers and pesticides. He is also the father of recist and misogynist Keean Bexte.

Racist bullshit.

Waterfox.

We moved a few weeks ago. Yesterday afternoon, my new neighbour who I had not yet met yelled over the fence at me. We met up out front, introduced ourselves, did the social thing, and then he said “hey, your new house has an air conditioner, and there’s a cover on it. You probably want to take that off.”

He was right. I did. Thanks new neighbour, for being…well, for being a neighbour.

Mostly, seeing my family succeed.

I’m not very happy very often, but I watched my son get award after award last week, and was happy. A year ago, my wife finished her Masters’ degree with a 4.0 GPA, and I was happy.

Personally, this morning I went for the first >100km motorcycle ride of the season. Once I was out of traffic and riding through some of the prettiest scenery on the planet, I was happy.
