@vanreanalyst The insurance thing has the ability to go south for the government: I don’t know if we can or should bail them out, but this government pretty much declared cheap car insurance as a human right, so it will be hard to justify why we put $B into ICBC if people lose their homes.
@vanreanalyst I think the big concern will be if the insurance thing hits individual landlords renting condos and purpose built rental and takes units out of comission, either because people sell or the units become unmortgagable without insurance.
@OliverCash9@David_Moscrop@supriyadwivedi Given that the most likely province to elect an NDP government anytime soon is Alberta, the implications to that could be interesting.
@stephen_taylor@David_Moscrop Looking at an election map, it would appear the NDP working class constituents are being well served by the Conservatives.
@PhillenniumLine I lived near Rupert for 3 years. Its weird; there are so many people flowing out if there at 5:30. Renfrew is also weird, but mostly because no one actually ever seemed to be in or around those buildings.
@georgeprbenson The government shut down in Victoria (by government order) due to elders smudging and people with signs. Horgan and crew are desperate to paint a picture of insurrection to excuse them from their own shit leeadership and moral rudderlessness.
@cityjada Past 5 hours (unless your in one of those weird 1st class pods) civililzation and manners are gone: you seize the resources you need based on what your strength and alliances will allow.
@David16982612 Good thing he’s not in Victoria because all our bridges are shutdown by protesters because the @bcndp are incompetent at crisis management.
@HousesLaneway@Lanefab You mean placing the rooms you actually use and are awake in ulstairs where there is more light and better views, and placing the rooms you want dark donwstairs? Yep.
@David16982612 @pwaldkirch I meant if the bottom falls out of the real estate maket and people lose their homes. The idea that substantial portion of our economy could collapse without further effects is probably not possible.
