@ToulasTake Also, in my experience is that low economic Montrealers often live in or work in areas that don't have the best/most reliable transit services. That will have to be addressed at some point.
@ToulasTake Great idea, but would like to see how they plan on funding this. Montrealers are some of the most heavily taxed citizens in NA. Even most middle class folk are economically stretched.
@CTVMontreal Good idea. Just wondering how they will fund that. Montrealers are already taxed to the limit, both directly and indirectly. Even middle-class Montrealers are stretched thin.
@GuthmannR@yuanyi_z That cost still keeps them prosperous. It costs money to make money. That is the basic principle of investment. The idea that America will be more prosperous with less investment is dumb
@MericanMemes@Acyn "we don't need Canada, but they also join the US because they have stuff we need that we are tired of subsidizing" - it's the same stupid MAGA doublespeak. They stand for nothing. Empty heads waiting to be filled with thoughts from their cult leader. Bootlickers.
@eliasmakos Do you only care about this problem now after you were told to do so by the man across the border? You're getting sucked into a culture war and you do not even know it. That doesn't absolve the Fen issue, but you should note that you are a pawn in an autocrat's political game.
@eliasmakos If I am not mistaken, only Congress has the power to levy tariffs. The president can do so in emergency contexts. That requires the invention or exaggeration of problem. Stop rationalizing someone whose intentions are arbitrary.
@JDVance Real stories about children being gunned down: "Facts of life."
Made up stories about migrants eating cats = major campaign issue.
I feel bad for the Americans that fall for such blatant misdirection.
@vieuxhipster @anhkhoido People like lawns. People don’t like lawns. Some people don’t have any opportunity to have a lawn. Just leave people alone if they aren’t harming anyone. People don’t have to like the things you like. If you like it, that’s what counts
@anhkhoido I mean, you probably having a smart phone posting on an app that requires infrastructure that probably emits intense carbon is bad too. Let’s not cherry pick purity. People enjoy different things.
@BoileauQuebec@ToulasTake Just because a majority decides to strip away rights from minorities does not make the decision morally just or right. Again, stop being petty.
