Right, but we have ways to require all automakers to build safe vehicles, commonly known as “safety regulations” that apply to both foreign and domestic companies. The same minimum requirements apply to a Toyota built in Woodstock or a VinFast built in Vietnam. That has nothing to do with tariffs, which are just a tax on consumers on foreign imports. This has nothing to do with protecting Canadians and everything to do with protecting big business.

Not surprised that the guy who idolized Trump turned out to also be a nonce. As somebody who used to live in Aurora ON, fuck this guy.

Real estate about to go brrrrrrr. The largely landlord-represented government again looks for its own interests first.

If they did this to me I would immediately drag my locked up cart to the customer service desk and return everything. Hard no. Not buying my groceries from a place that aspires to be a prison.

We need to break up the grocery conglomerates. Nowhere else in the world is the food system so heavily monopolized and vertically integrated. Go tell an American about Cara Foods/Recipe Unltd[1] — they won’t believe you!

600 metres below the countryside

It’s to be stored in bedrock more than half a kilometre down, sealed in an impermeable polymer.

It’s not perfect, but it’s a hell of a lot better than oil/gas which store their waste in your lungs.

It depends. I’d say on average it’s higher for “convenience” items but the cost of milk, cheese, rice, pantry staples, etc seems to be about the same.

If there was a food basics nearby I’d probably go there, but in my city that means driving another 15 minutes.

My wife and I have been spitefully avoiding loblaws for a while now. We get most of our meat & produce from the weekend market, bread from the local bakery, and anything else from the Asian/Indian supermarket or Metro if it can’t be found elsewhere.

The last straw was the prison gates and the receipt checking. Show some dignity.

Wow, you mean tying our entire nation’s success to a speculative real estate market was a bad idea?

Police should be required to hold malpractice insurance, just like every other “profession” that has inherent risk to public safety.
