NatPo pledges allegiance to monied interests.

I agree, it is double counted.

However, when it comes to emissions, the buyer and seller should bear half (or something close to that) of the responsibility each. Take the number and divide it in half if you wish, but the producer shifting responsibility to the buyer is not a fair share of the blame, and figures like this help give a sense of how much this is being done.

Glad I got to see it one last time this past year… many memories and a lot of the exhibits I remembered from before are still there.

Looks good

Did you post the correct link? Body of the article doesn’t seem to match the posted headline.

Officer Douglas, we’ve recovered 2000kg of the gold stolen last year!

Good job, Detective Webster. How did you locate that 1900kg of gold?

More like Good Fucking Luck.

Around Nanaimo, Victoria and the Vancouver Islands seems like the perfect spot for being the first places to replace shorthaul fossil-fuel-based flights and small ferries with electric planes.

I expect it to grow from there.

The philosopher of our century, right here!

Fortnitism: Life is about getting as far through the current battle pass as possible?

Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver I could see a congestion charge working. (Vancouver already has TransLink parking fees and other things).

The TTC or GO needs to run frequent orbital bus routes in dedicated lanes around the 401, DVP, Gardiner, and 427 ring (connecting Oriole GO/Leslie, Science Centre, Castle Frank, Union, Long Branch GO, Kipling GO, Etobicoke North GO, Yorkdale) ASAP to cover these perennially congested routes. Maybe a second ring for 407, 404, 401, 400.

Ottawa, Calgary, Québec and other cities don’t have well enough developed transit to justify it, yet. Maybe once they finish their current planned projects.

When it comes to staffing up, Canadians’ willingness to serve does not appear to be the bottleneck. The most recent DND figures indicate that over 67,000 applications were submitted to the Forces over the past year, representing a five-year high. Of that number, fewer than 4,000 have been accepted, according to information tabled in Parliament.

The biggest thing is the recruiting process is too slow. I think the DND are working on reducing barriers to enlistment related to stigma and discrimination, but the speed of beauraucracy is still a major setback.

Russia has a healthy military, as they’ll take anyone who will get on a bus that dumps them on the front line. The US military has a whole program to make young people aware of them, and then snatch them right as they come out of highschool.

Those are extremes that I don’t want Canada to resort to. If they can work on making the application process responsive and painless unlike the job recruitment process, then they will set themselves as a competitive opportunity with more skilled recruits to fill any gaps there may be. Pay will also be a big factor.

Vancouver to and from the nearby islands seems like an ideal use-case for all-electric aircraft.

It’s simply a 5 stroke character with orthogonal lines: 正

The reason why it’s separate is just that this is the traditional drawing order to write that character.

For me Nestea/Brisk/Sweet Tea in the US is often the only option when I want a super sweet fountain drink that doesn’t have carbonation in it.

Kind of hilarious that Kansas scores above Washington state.

Classic “our model doesn’t work anymore for some reason”. How about instead of pay we try to “modernize” it with [insert buzzword]?

S7E21: 8.9/10

Luckily Canadian Hyundai and Kia models are less vulnerable to this because Canada mandates engine immobilizers.

Doesn’t mean car theft isn’t a problem. The last statistics from Ontario I remember, Lexus vehicles are the most commonly stolen because they fetch high prices on the illegal resale market.

Uh oh, this image has been sitting out of the fridge for too long… getting a little moldy.
