English immigrant to Canada as a child. Social issues very lefty. Economics and law and order quite right of center. Constitutional monarchist.

Up here in Canada, our Conservative party has lost 4 elections in a row from being too far right. Last election had their leader, Pierre Poilievre, spout mapleMAGA trumpisms. He even lost his own seat and had to be parachuted into a safe rural riding so he could sit in parliament not the gallery.
Is Coup d'état 101. Have loyal troops in major cities to seize control of public buildings and institutions.
Surround some guys car, yell at him and threaten with weapons and pepper spray and then feign surprise when he puts it in reverse and tries to get out of there real fast, unintentionally striking an agent?
Republican plan is to gut health care so lowering federal gov't health care costs. Not the people's costs!
Again, is how to pay for Big Beautiful Billionaires Bill.
Would not be surprised if entire reason for this is to force the states to fund various programs. Federal budget savings going to offset Big Beautiful Billionaires Bill cost.
Offload lots of things on states. Emergency aid and disaster relief?
Just have Congress enact tariffs not POTUS by EO. Then is legal and constitutional.

If only GoP had enough of a majority to veto even dissent within own party ranks over tariffs.

How many laws has the US Congress passed since trump took over its constitutional role with his EOs?
They are under pressure to not appear biased. In Canada, the CBC has gotten some flack from having right wing hosts and interviewees. Our Conservatives are mapleMAGA.🙄
The same inflammatory biased crap that fits their agenda. Is Official Opposition party so state TV has to give them air time.
Lose valuable farmland to subdivisions and urban sprawl and now huge data centers. An auto plant of same size would employ a whole lot more people.
Love to see small market Winnipeg Jets win.
Always been a Canucks fan but think Jets have a better shot of winning the Cup before Vancouver.
For a very small percentage of population. Even vaccines have a slight chance of adverse effects. Amusement park rides!
Just change schedule by 15 minutes two days before and two after.
Society usually sleep deprived anyways which is not DST fault.
Gotta pay for the Big Beautiful Billionaires Bill somehow. 🙄
Harper tried mandatory minimums for gun crimes. Unconstitutional.
PP willing to sidestep constitution and rights with Notwithstanding clause.
Even Harper never threatened that.
I'm more pissed off at the millions who voted for him. Enablers and followers. What does it say about a country and people who would vote for him? Either entitled racists or scared and hateful snowflakes.
Takes more than one man to do this.
I am an English immigrant to Canada. Very young age 6. Yes, used here but IMO maybe bigger deal in England. Milk expensive asf over there.
Only time I recall drinking milk was in school. I dislike tea and at age 5+ drank coffee. Wouldn't serve coffee to kids on ship coming over. Drank much milk.
You sound like the antivaxxer. Something with a very small percentage chance to harm certain people sometimes and you get bent out of shape.
Not one of my multiple cardiac events can be tied to DST.
Yes, tarts. I like a nice thick pie crust. Think you get more crust per serving with tarts.
Pie always served with Carnation Evaporated Milk too.
Unsure but the evap milk may be a British thing. Love that stuff. Use as a cream sub. Nasty heart disease so use non-fat type.
And talk about baseball will drop off as fast as Kirk assassination talk dropped off.
He doesn't sound broken up by it. Doubt Carney could rein in Ford if Dougie had bit between his teeth.
Much tougher sentencing guidelines for most violent and sex crimes, yes. But mandatory minimums is not the answer. I put mandatory minimums in with the Notwithstanding clause.
