On the last day of the @BCNDP campaign, a @dave_eby social media video includes a purported clip of a nurse in British Columbia.
It is stock footage of a dental hygienist shot in Ukraine.
Not in British Columbia. Not in Canada. But in Ukraine. #bcpoli
I have to say, David Eby and the NDP have run what is perhaps the worst election campaign of my lifetime.
Devoid of any positivity, any coherent rationale for why they deserve to be re-elected.
Filled with embarrassing gaffes (see Eby’s $10/day daycare) and a total lack of policy or rhetorical imagination.
31 days into the campaign, they can’t even articulate why they called this election in the first place.
All they have left is fearmongering, division and misinformation.
Tomorrow, October 24th, let’s vote for a change.
SORRY IF THIS OFFENDS GROCERY EXECUTIVES, BUT I’M DONE.
I just pulled a $4.99 box of cereal off the shelf, brought it to the register, and watched the scanner ring it up as $7.49.
When I told the cashier, she said: "Oh, that’s the digital coupon price. You have to download our store app, create an account, search for the item, and clip the digital coupon before scanning."
ABSOLUTELY NOT.
You inflated the shelf price by 50%, locked the normal price behind an app, and forced me to hand over my personal phone data and email just to pay the actual retail value of a box of food?
Stop hiding basic shelf pricing behind data-harvesting apps.
Honestly I’ve hit my breaking point. On call this week and just crushed. It’s insanity to do a specialist consult on a complex patient in 20 minutes. If I take longer then urgent care is delayed and the pile gets bigger.
Now Sechelt hospital has no physician capacity and patients are being sent over to me in the night. For the first time in 22 years of medical practice I said no. It felt terrible because the patient gets caught in the middle.
It’s unsafe. It’s hurting me. It’s hurting my family. It’s hurting patients. Leadership at the highest level in the VCH health authority need to lead. I have dedicated 22 years to Lions gate hospital. I’m seriously contemplating resigning.
Whoever forms the next government needs to make people in highly paid positions in administration accountable. Done with mediocrity. Politicians can’t fix the system but they can demand accountability from those they hire in to these roles.
Everything older people said would happen with modern child rearing has happened. And the young parents scream and stamp their feet because they know it's true, but they want no responsibility.
It all happened:
-Picky eater explosion, catered to with special meals
-Terrified to do normal things like walk a half mile to school; weren't allowed, mommy chauffered
-Won't make eye contact, can't respond normally to small talk, got "diagnosed" with "autism." Mommy gave them phones when young
-Think they're the opposite sex, or a cat, or an animal. Mommy didn't want to challenge them and damage their self-esteem.
-Can't even *understand* what nested file folder are, paper or digital. Literally don't understand information hierarchy. Were given phones and apps from childhood
-Narcissistic to an extreme degree. Selfish, rude, and demanding, all while being incompetent.
Lots of factors, but they all boil down to inadequate parenting. Too many moms and too few dads (and weak dads when they're around).
Mommie's role is supposed to diminish as the children age; dad is supposed to introduce them to self sufficiency and the wider world.
Even in married households, Mommie's Kindergarten Rules go all the way through childhood while Dad sits in the cuck chair watching his children get handicapped by an out of control broody hen.
Every single thing "stupid old people" said would happen did happen.

Good evening and welcome to this week’s episode of Whisky Wednesday…a night where we delve into the shadows of time and space…🥃
Pour a glass and let’s sit back and examine this recent story in Popular Science…
A mysterious runestone found in Ontario…

Dear Canadian Dairies: If you don’t stop putting extra crap in the cream, watering down the milk and palm-oil-ing the butter, the people will revolt en masse.
And they should. Stop it.
Are there are any coffee cream, whipping cream or half & half just made of MILK & CREAM?
@frankbullitts Finding out where Canada’s imported fresh food sits on the supply chain is alarming. We’re paying for the unripe and overripe, the almost rotten, the mishapened and rejected.
Discount cruises have better quality ingredients than Canada now. That’s a bad thing.
