The moral centerpiece, you say

@Calibremag And that is what passes for prayer in my house

@Calibremag As I tell my son:

"it's good to follow the rules until the rules are no longer good

No one can know this for you; you must know it for yourself

To know it requires a moral centre that exists beyond all rules

But you and I: we ride, we shoot straight, and we speak the truth"

@AntSpeaks Man you guys are awfully intolerant of diversity amongst barbers and their varying wet shave techniques according to country of origin

[hecate_strait ᔪᐊᑎ @StraitHecate]

@RedGreenShowCBC @ShaziGoalie Specific markets will have varying levels of demand and you will see the prices drop in exact proportion to that

Income vs housing is also a supply/demand issue - if we continually import cheap labour we inflate supply and wages don't increase

It's the exact same problem

[hecate_strait ᔪᐊᑎ @StraitHecate]

@RedGreenShowCBC @ShaziGoalie If supply exceeds demand the prices will come down, period. There is lag time because not everyone needs to sell their house NOW. But people cannot all collude to keep prices high; if I need to sell my house I sell for what the market will bear.

Avg $ down about 150k from peak

[hecate_strait ᔪᐊᑎ @StraitHecate]

@RedGreenShowCBC @ShaziGoalie It would come down once supply outpaced demand which would be relatively quickly...as long as the government is not standing in the way of either the construction or the transaction

[hecate_strait ᔪᐊᑎ @StraitHecate]

@RedGreenShowCBC @ShaziGoalie Rent and price controls invariably just constrain supply

What we need is to reduce demand, so instead of creating a train wreck of bureaucracy to control housing prices, we just don't try to house the entire state of Punjab... problem solved

Since coming to power in 2015 the Liberals have appointed over 740 of our roughly 1000 federal judges, 7 of the 9 Supreme Court judges, and 100 of the 105 senators.

The government also pays roughly 30% of every reporter’s salary in Canada.

I have returned from my annual pilgrimage to the Church of Toyota

This year's sacrifice was lower ball joints, outer tie rod ends, sway bar links and bushings

If I get much older I'm going to have to invest in a hoist...I am not digging the lying and kneeling on concrete

Nothing against Tesla, I'm sure they are fantastic, but I go a lot of places here on the West Coast of 🇨🇦 where I need refueling/ 4wd/ground clearance

Plus I tow boats a lot and a 1/2T frame is the bare minimum

This is basically the Canada’s current PR strategy, summed up in one photo.

Don’t believe the lies.

@Badbod5 @patcondell Well it's a matter of goals

If you measure the UK against global averages it's pretty clear that wages are above average and rape and murder are below average

So if you want to bring your numbers in line with the global average it seems like what you're doing is working great!

CBC: "Oh, you killed 16 people? A fifth chance at avoiding deportation is more than appropriate."

ALSO THE CBC: "Oh, you were falsely accused of sexual assault? No fresh start for you."

My dad is not a boomer, by ~4 days

angry guy, awful dad TBH, selfish and violent

"It's so much harder now than it was for us. We ruined this country."

@Aarvoll_ The purpose of a system is what it does

We all know what the legal system does

We are all therefore funding a system that exists in large part to constrain the net contributors

@AdamZivo "oh look at these boxes getting checked! $235k over two years to study this for sure"

They will 100% read it as people being homophobic AND Islamophobic and you will have grant money showered on you

[hecate_strait ᔪᐊᑎ @StraitHecate]

@AdamZivo You know if you just coin the term "islamohomophobia" and submit an application titled "normalizing conversations about islamohomophobia in early childhood education: a queer journey of triumph in settler society" Heritage Canada will fund you without reading any further
