Canada still uses biosolids, but they can’t be used on crops directly for humam consumption, instead used on cattle feed or other crops that do not go from field to plate.

Won’t anyone think of the shareholders!!!

service ontario should be an essential service and not seen as a profitable business.

Does the province have staff and a plan to check on the stores? Will there be government employess sent to test the stores alcohol sales hours? Will we be ensuring underage sales are not occuring? Do law enforcement agencies have a plan to measure the impact this may have on impaired driving?

Tacklkng the affordability and climate crisis by making cheap EVs more expensive to import

With a disarmed police force, who responds to weapons compliants and violent crimes?

The difference between 200m and 2km is 10x. 200m feels very close, closer than many places will even place their bus stops to each other. Something along the lines of 500m-1km away from schools seems more reasonable IMO.

Drug users loiter and use drugs where they can get away with it. With proper resources provided elsewhere many will go there instead of shooting up in the school yard, the ones that linger and become problematic can be relocated to treatment sites by law enforcement and site staff.

The whole point is to move them somewhere safe to consume, for both the users and the public. Drugs can be pretty bad and make people do some bad things, from crimes to indecency. We dont need people fighting each other near schools, we dont need people relieving themselves in bushes near schools.

The railroads would just hire tons of foriegn workers and throw safety out the window to speed up training. And our government would let it happen because it is the “only way” to fix the strike.

I think we should ban cruise ships from the great lakes. They burn fuel, leak oils, disrupt the environment with noise, dump wastes in the water, lose garbage from litter and wind, and will ultimately pollute the great lakes. There is also a risk of invasive species being moved around if the ships travel from one lake to another.

Your second quote sounds a lot like typical complaining from american manufacturers about how cheap imports “ruin the free market” unless they are heavily taxed or banned. This isnt about the consumer or about corporate subsidies. North american manufacturers have no interest in making affordable cars because their profits on more luxurious models are higher. They will beg governments to ban their competitors so they can keep their share of the market without actually providing what the market wants.

Lots of CEOS playing the blame game, worried about their profits, worried about selling their product, worried about losing customers, did a single one of them say “give the workers a raise and better hours”?

They are so afraid of the detrimental effects of all these strikes but they won’t stop for a second to consider why the strikes happen and how treating workers better could prevent them.

“If the abuse and misuse does not improve”

What if we just actually regulated it? Instead of just praying corporations won’t be shitty. But this is Canada so I guess the best we can do is politely ask them not to exploit people.

Our cars keep getting bigger, our houses keep getting bigger, even places like walmarts feel like they are getting bigger. We aren’t building any electrified transit, we aren’t heavily investing in renewable energy sources, we haven’t been shifting away from a natural resource based economy.

No one should be surprised Canada’s pollution is increasing, overall Canada isn’t really trying to reduce it.

This isn’t fair to Canadians who may need those jobs. This isn’t fair to the foreign workers who are often being exploited and may be trapped in that job for life. The only people who benefit are the ones at the top that pay for the wages and benefit from the subsidies.

How are these corporations seriously able to claim they couldn’t find someone local qualified to pour coffee?? It is clear the system is being abused.

It is a result of line goes up policies. Everything must always get more valuable. Profits must always increase. Budgets must be spent to get more next year.

Canadian government: noooo don’t burn fuel heres a carbon tax

Also the Canadian government: nooo don’t order a cheap electric vehicle, you need the luxury chevy suburban XL mega cab EV green hybrid edition.

Seriously, how do we expect canadians to make greener decisions if this is how we act? Most people can’t afford a house right now, they dont want to spend more on a car than they have to. American auto manufacturers have proven they only want to make larger, more luxurious cars. They aren’t really trying to compete in the small cheap EV market, so their solution is to beg governments to ban their competition.

It is more like an oil company, a mining company, and a logging company all on each others shoulders in a trenchcoat

It will probably just listen to us and try to sell us stuff, just like the many of the others.

How the hell is the bus expected to be effective if it stops before even really being in the city? Do these nimbys realize that everyone on the bus is someone not in a car clogging their streets?
