We're missing informal citizens' committees that would meet at the local pub or coffee shop to discuss, right or wrong, current events and what to do about them.
I remember Stephen Harper talking about being elected PM. He said once elected you actually don't have a lot of people with which you can reflect.

I subscribe to no party. I voted Liberal in the last election. That doesn’t mean I sign off on everything the “Liberal agenda” pushes.

I don’t think adults should be naked near children.

I think some of the climate change rhetoric has gotten extreme and detached from practical reality.

I back the condo buyout plan.

The real problem in this country isn’t left vs right anymore. It’s that people have stopped thinking for themselves. Conservative voters defend everything their party does no matter what. Liberal voters do the same. Pick a side, then defend it blindly forever, facts be damned.

I’d rather think for myself and call out nonsense no matter which team it comes from. More people should try it!

The campaign was a loss. In new West, @PierrePoilievre had two unlikeable candidates splitting the split of the vote but the political acrobatics that put Carney in office would have made Stalin blush.

[L. Wayne Mathison @WayneMathison]

Charles Adler calls Pierre Poilievre a “desperate loser,” then blocks ordinary Canadians who might challenge him.

That tells you everything.

A senator should be able to defend his arguments without hiding behind the block button. Adler is free to disagree with Poilievre. He is even free to be rude.

But when a public official insults voters as “imbeciles” and then shuts down replies, he is not showing strength. He is showing contempt.

The Senate already suffers from a credibility problem. Adler is making it worse.

I remember the days when opposing a govt meant righteous indignation and not doubting the basic adult competence of the people in power.

The NDP and @Dave_Eby are ruining this province. They have to go.

@jaycurrie Disagree with him about the Clark interregnum. He asserted Canadian sovereignty in the Arctic beyond US and Russia.

@Gina_T1 I question the study....

[Laura Love @Panopticonomy]

Anddd THERE IT IS! The Chrystia Freeland and Mark Carney created “Canada Growth Fund” their lies about their “Green fund” aka the literally stealing our Canada Pension Plan Fund is doing EXACTLY as I said it would a few years back here: https://t.co/qF6Xbg9bBY

“Today, Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TECK.A and TECK.B, NYSE: TECK) (“Teck”), Canada Growth Fund Inc. (“CGF”), and Natural Resources Canada (“NRCan”)’s Canada Critical Minerals Accelerator announced that they have signed a Strategic Investment Agreement (the “Agreement”) to support expanding production capacity for germanium, gallium, and antimony at Teck’s Trail Operations smelting and refining complex in British Columbia (“Trail”).”

Someone in the current government theft and money laundering regime might need to EXPLAIN how a fund originally created to get Canada to”net zero” is now being used to invest in mines and minerals!? 😆 You ejits..

[Stephen Gibbison @VRLowKey]

@Panopticonomy Still have none here after 5 years. Fraser Health directed me to a walk-in clinic on 12th Street with a TFW doctor that only works 3 days a week.

@Panopticonomy @MikeBenzCyber Did Wuhan lab receive support from the Chinese scientists that were working at the Winnipeg lab?
I know there were lots of rumors...

@Kasparov63 What if the only resolution is for Ukraine to take over Russia?

[Stephen Gibbison @VRLowKey]

Noticing the new projects in BC to effectively landlock Alberta should it try to go.
We've had Project Fear since the 90s when Quebec wanted to withdraw.

They conned the developers into making condos for 'new Canadians' then had to bail them out when the condos didn't sell.

I was watching Sherlock Holmes, tv series, Ron Howard.. are future women going to seek men with Victorian manners?

[Amy Eileen Hamm @preta_6]

If she was referring to the males in our sports, prisons, shelters etc. then she would be correct.

But she probably wasn’t.

[Stephen Gibbison @VRLowKey]

@LeslynLewis @grok can you comment on this?

Supergirl keeps failing as a movie because she's a wish fulfillment of a wish fulfillment. The first incarnation was created by 'magic' to be Superman's companion. The minute you detail her history, she becomes something far too dark for Superman.

[Stephen Gibbison @VRLowKey]

The whole concept of Superman gets lost here.
Superman is a wish fulfillment: "I wish there was someone incredibly strong and fast that could fix our problems."
Look at Superman I. Opening scenes. A small boy reading a comic book. Does he describe the teenage angst of Superman? No. The Daily Planet. Truth and clarity in the face of economic depression.

Superman, the character in the 30s, starts as a circus star and adventurer:
Strong man. Tights. Crowds cheering.
Challenged to purpose: What about war? What about crime?
Becomes the hero.
NOT B-movie self-absorbed man-child. That's Peter Parker.
Not B-movie monster tragically human. That's Bruce Banner.
Again with Stephen Strange, Tony Stark etc.

Corenswet was calling out Gunn's lack of understanding of Superman here lol

And after realizing Gunn was self-inserting himself he was like "ok, stfu" at the end 😂😂�
