@EclecticRadShow@wickdchiq McGill libraries are already open to the public. Honestly never heard of a university library that bars the public from accessing their main facilities during regular hours.
@janosch_ortmann@CraigSauve I mean if a socialist Quebec emancipating itself from a capitalist Canada is a problem for the NDP, I don’t see how that makes their position any better than PSPP’s?
@NoLore he’d have to get all his twitter followers (how many are eligible Canadian voters?) to join and vote for him to maybe beat Lewis. How many would stick around after his failed attempt at entryism? They should have let him lose out of principle but there was obviously no upside

@Grochowa2 As far as annual music fests go, there’s M for Montreal Nov 18-21, usually good local artists. I think Mundial is also around the same time, more international music. October is a bit of a quiet month but there’s Pop in Sep that always has something worthwhile

National Post editorial line: Privatize everything
National Post columnist: gee, why is it so expensive when the government hires consultants and private contractors for every single project
App-developer friend shares thought about ArriveCan debacle: "It feels like whoever was working in procurement spoke with the first dev shop they found and was like 'How much will it cost? 50 million? 100? 200?'"
@TRyanGregory CP was profitable and isn't paid for by taxpayers. (you could argue indirectly through gov use of post but CP has always been funded by service charges) The problem is CP's mandate to deliver unprofitably to all Canadians when private corps can compete on profitable deliveries
