I wish I had your crystal ball. I only know a dozen cops - only 2 in my family as we’re mainly infantry - and they seem to unanimously not be dicks. Stressed and wary, but not dicks.

What you must have suffered personally, I can’t imagine. Clearly.

We don’t get to vote for the perfect party. We choose the least-worse from those who can win and deliver on their plan.

These 5 words he said to you.

Nah, he’s not changed in 20 years.

Because, many will argue, the white male is now a minority thats being oppressed…

At 49.8% or some similarly dumb number, the facts are there. And I’ve seen advertisements for jobs etc that say my genetic mix isn’t welcome, like being French is a choice or being left-handed. The components of reverse sexism are there.

I hope that if I learn to cope with minor disadvantage, that we can keep the equality movement as an equality movement and not some revenge play where I get penalized too often for something I wasn’t a part of.

There. I know my own opinion smells like virtue signalling while it also doesn’t placate people who’ve been hurt and want payba-uh, justice. Ironically I’ll be downvoted to hell for promoting equality, I expect.

Very well said. I’m saving this one because I’ll never do better with my own brain.

There are things in the AB NDP platform that I really like, and there are some things that I’m indifferent to. There are some things I wish weren’t there, and some things that I really wish they made a bigger deal about.

When you both-sides like this, though, it trivializes one important contrast: there are ideas the NDP have that I don’t agree with, but there are ideas the Cons have that are actually harmful. The different between “what I prefer” and “what allows people to live” is hard to paint with that both-sides brush.

Sure that wasn’t the plan, and I’m picking nits; I would totally agree if you said that. But our language may help contrast the two better by focusing on those differences, and sway the vote or bring more to the polls.

Wood houses and oil. Fire’s Favourite food groups.

You have so few natural resouces[sic]

Wait. You’re from the “no child left behind” generation, aren’t ya? Resources is really what we do well. That, and repelling invaders with drunken arsonists.

How has Polievre not tried to capitalize on this tragedy to pitch his “your bank is a better death panel than the transplant math” plan yet? American healthcare is half his platform!

1. conservatives hate things the poors can get value from
2. they decided canada post was a business that had to turn a profit, like the Americans did
3. now the books have to balance, because that’s how governments fund things with no taxes is by increased user fees so they’re more dramatically impacted by the ebb and flow of spending and thus die.
4. then the cons like PP get to laugh into their quiches at the struggles of the poors

they HAD a parcel-only service. They separated it. Hello PUROLATOR, the least effective courier service on the planet. They can’t find my 31-story building while they’re standing 100ft from it. Like, LOOK UP, IDIOT. And so I have to go to the airport almost, to get my package, if they haven’t just thrown it into the ditch and cursed at it in French or something. “Alors, avez ca trou-d’eau la-bas, putain!” or so.

"Justin Trudeau has proven again and again he will always cave to corporate greed. The Liberals have let people down

Lil’ PP will show us how THAT’s done.

I hope they will consider carefully before voting. We don’t need a lot of edgy, kneejerk mistakes.

I love how you still class the (provincial) libs as electable after their performance. This shows great optimism despite us having little or nothing left to sell off for short-term gains on paper. That’s admirable, and I’m glad you’re here.

… or, as we call it, a split vote.

less negative than Mulcair

I really thought Mulcair would have been a great Fed NDP leader, though: Smart, fast, and marketable.

The cons have always cosplayed as human and their plebes haven’t really cared it was an act.

That’s the pic. Who knows whether that’s her account, though; and I’m not going to xitter to find out!

Staff quit during or after COVID.

As to why that happens, I’m thinking you can only see so many people

1. not doing the minimals of prevention,
2. getting sick and demanding specialist time anyway, and then
3. threatening the staff at every turn,

before you decide to switch to goat-farming and stop being a doctor or nurse.

(Like an EMT at 0830, I guess)
