@EatYourOrach one thing they don't really get into is that the source of donations is beyond what can be reasonably gathered from individual hate assholes....the bulk is originating from state and wealthy actors, who are buying divisive propaganda.
Funding hate speech streamer assholes isn't clearly illegal in Canada. But breaking money laundering laws is. And accepting funds that bypass sanctions on Russia? That is toxic risk to banks & processors.
@bss03@MicroWave BMI isn't everything. It sounds like you are in great fitness. What does your Dr. say? How's the bloodwork? It's going to say more about health risks than only BMI
@Davriellelouna I've heard others express the view that the capability for a huge Canadian insurgency matches up well with the US's terrible record of counterinsurgency. Based on Canada's pop of 40M, using the Finnish rate of training 18% as insurgents, that's a large body of 7M insurgents. A major pain in the ass.
@Davriellelouna didn't notice anything too exciting in there, except for the ability of employers to basically pay a secret bribe (administrative penalties) to avoid being charged with a offense.
@allen@askacanadian I think they'll make some announcements with some provinces.
Stretch goal: maybe some federal and provincial regulations will be updated via Orders in Council.
Nothing requiring passing legislation will happen, since Parliament and the provincial legislatures will not be sitting.
Broad, measurable shifts in inter-provincial trade attributable to Carney/premiers won't show up for months/years, but we'll see changes as a result of international tarriff mess.
@human3500@burnitdown@sbv@ottawa@dwazou I live in the suburbs and voted for McKenney. BP2 carried a lot of suburbs, but not overwhelmingly. McKenney didn't campaign much on suburban issues.
Looking back at the 2022 election page on Wikipedia, I do see that she was endorsed by Mark Carney. I wonder how that's going to work out between the MP for Nepean and BP2.
@observantTrapezium there were a few withdrawn or non-replaced candidates. I think there was an OLP candidate who endorsed the NDP candidate as they were withdrawing, forget exactly where.
I totally agree on the Crombie/Stiles fake agenda though. They can have a great collaboration, forming many unity govts, even if they can't align how their parties work or some of their principles.
@observantTrapezium it's equally fair to blame the 2nd place candidate for spoiling the campaign of the 3rd.
For this election, the OLP and NDP were further apart on principles that they have been for 20y.
The OLP leader Crombie is further to the economic right than recent OLP leaders.
If the NDP and OLP can agree that Ontario should exist to benefit people, then they can merge. The OLP often veers into thinking Ontario should benefit only the rich.
@mattblaze@federate.social there is still a tower with those horn antennas off highway 11 in northern Ontario. There used to be a set where I grew up, but now it's just a massive tower with a few tiny cell antennas on it. Fiber went through in 1990 and we all got touch tone.

@HellsBelle what's the speculation on who the abuser is?

@ValueSubtracted can one ascend to heaven with a curling stone in each hand? It's not for me to say.
Pleasant journey to M. Jones.

@grickle@mstdn.social pretty sure there's a lizard hiding in one of those trees...

@Dyskolos @Saizaku I had a couple.of OnePlusses...they were great. Especially the 1st one, the original OnePlus One...$300 worked great.
I did root the 1 and a 6T and recall it being very easy.
