This is going to affect hard working Canadians (who make more than $250,000 a year in capital gains)!

Restricting democratic positions based on an undemocratic process isn’t good. If a corrupt government wanted to keep someone from being voted out they could just deny security clearances to their political enemies and suddenly the people can’t vote for who they want.

Like others have said, Poilievre could get security clearance if he wanted to. He’s not a foreign agent, he’s just an asshole. He’s currently arguing that those who read the classified documents detailing interference by foreign spies are doing nothing to fix it. He loses that argument if he reads the documents, because now he’s just like everyone else.

Headline is misleading. This is a food bank that allows their clients to choose their own products and sets the product out like a grocery store.

Typically food banks will give clients a standard box of items but not everyone uses all of it. Allowing clients to pick their own items reduces waste and setting it up like a grocery store just makes sense.

Clients still need to register with the food bank and are restricted to $200 worth of items every two weeks.

This is all the quiet parts outloud.
Police don’t need to follow the rules they enforce.
Police don’t understand what makes something unsafe (cyclists aren’t worried about running into your car, they’re worried about having to enter the roadway to get around your car).
Police should be worshiped like heros.
Police believe “criminal” is a class of people.
Police think anyone who complains about police is a libtard soyboy who cares about people’s feelings.

Step 3. Profit! (for the corporations)

Former funeral director. How to leave a body unclaimed was an unfortunately common discussion I’ve had with people. It starts with “What is the cheapest option?” Followed by “What if I can’t afford that?”

It makes no sense that the government won’t assist a family with burial expenses but will pay to bury an unclaimed body. The Canada Pension Plan death benefit is only $2,500. It’s taxable and the amount has not increased in over a decade. The cheapest funeral options now cost about $3,000 - $4,000. People shouldn’t need to worry about their financial situation immediately after their loved one dies.

America Daddy would be upset :(

Should it be used/exist at all?

No. “These are your rights and freedoms as citizens and the government cannot violate them…unless they want to”. What’s the point of having rights if the government can ignore them?

Youre right! That’s why if someone blows high on a roadside test they will be taken to the station and tested again multiple times over a longer period of time using a more sensitive device. Roadside tests aren’t admissible in court as evidence and are only used as probable cause to force someone to take the real test at the station. Nobody is going to jail because they used mouthwash before driving.

I really like your videos! Welcome to the fediverse!

But this isn’t stop and frisk. You’ve already been stopped. The policy is that everyone who gets stopped gets a breathalyzer. There’s literally no way this can be used to hassle you any further than you’ve already been hassled. You’ve already been pulled over. If cops want to hassle you for donut powder they already can without the breathalyzer bit. This doesn’t change when cops can pull you over.

If you have something in your car that could give police reason to hassle you over, the pretextual stop was probably worth it. I get that police stopping drivers is annoying, and ACAB, but having to prove you aren’t drunk while driving is already a thing in Ontario. RIDE Programs are literal police checkpoints where you need to prove you aren’t drunk to pass through. That is already a thing and has been for years. I’ve yet to see any serious complaints about it or police abusing it to hassle people.

I really don’t so how this can be abused. You blow into the device and it reads out how much alcohol is in your breath. It takes seconds to do and cops can’t discover anything else about you other than how much alcohol is in your breath. It’s nothing like searching your home. It provides police with less information about you than your licence does, which cops can check anytime.

There is no downside to building homes for everyone. There are downsides to not having a large population. More people can be beneficial economically, geopolitically, and socially.

I initially thought this was going to be another “immigrants bad” post that have been popping up everywhere, but was pleasantly surprised it’s the opposite. It’s a very well researched and articulated video, by an immigrant, about how Canada’s small population affects its ability to have nice things and do good things, but growing our population has exposed a lot of poor policies and outdated systems.

It covers the housing crisis but also says that’s just one thing in the spotlight. Canada has more than one issue that population growth is exposing. The government wants 100 million Canadians but the systems in place are struggling to maintain 40 million. We either make a lot of political changes so our population can match our land size, or we stay a tiny, sparsely populated country.

Because if the scale wasn’t inverted the line would be going up and everyone knows the line going up means good.
