wait is this really the etymology? I have always thought of it as a crayon being a coloured writing utensil, and pencil describing the type, i.e. pencil crayon vs wax crayon.

It's not at all clear that you need to invoke s.33 to get rid of non-medical vaccine exemptions. It's certainly 'easier' than trying to save it under s.1, which necessarily involves being taken to court on it, but an amenable court could definitely accept an Oakes test argument.

Yes, they should rename it to BC. What does it stand for? BC, Clearly.

I hope that young Albertans coming into voting age never forget that Danielle Smith targeted their schools, their friends, and the health & wellbeing of vulnerable teens just to score a 2% favorability swing among the most openly disgusting losers you've ever met

Thanks to everyone who participated but it turns out that none of you were able to imagine the greatest horror: a successful small business with beef patties.
Councillor Shan moves to exclude three streets in his ward. He worries the retail spaces created won't just be small shops selling ice cream to locals, but things like "beef patties that are so popular that people from the 905 will come to get it." That'll just add to traffic problems, he says.

I spent a few unfortunate years of adolescence on a no-sidewalk street near York Mills and Vic Park, and it was not uncommon in that area.

> the problem that wards... *change.*

Ah, you haven't fully integrated the Torontonian understanding that our wards are frozen in amber the way the immortal god-premier Doug wanted them in 2018.

(but seriously, yeah, it's a real bad idea and your community council suggestion is better)
