it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

Gods, even the Americans that give me hope mess it up with the exceptionalism sometimes.
The US was never party to the Rome Statute. You can’t abdicate something you never had.

Yet another example of Trump shooting the US in the foot. Our abdication of moral leadership in international institutions like the UN, WHO, G20, and ICC only serves to allow our adversaries the opportunity to expand their influence on the world stage while we suffer.

Alberta's use of the notwithstanding clause in Bill 2 means that courts won’t be able to strike down the law even if it violates the Charter.

The US is demolishing part of the WH for a tacky ballroom. Meanwhile in Canada, we’re doing a painstaking, delicate restoration of Parliament Hill’s Centre Block to preserve it for a hundred years more.

Alberta wanting to separate from us less believable than Crimea was, which is a feat, I’d say.
Quebec would have a better chance at passing such a vote. And last time they did it failed. And with the US breathing down our collective necks it’d probably fail even harder if done again.
