Americans you really need to learn your historical and present imperialism and how you’ve devastated the Global South and turned them every which way but loose. At least Trump is being honest about it instead of hiding behind that spreading democracy bullshit

Wish I'd taken the "before" photo for this one. It takes less than 10 minutes to dig through a snowbank, but it's a huge benefit to your community and neighbours to help clear a bus stop or the snowbanks that collect at street corners.
Adopt your local bus stop today to keep it cleared and happy!

We collect far less data than most OECD countries and we have no way of measuring a lot of stuff we need to measure. Carney knows that an ignorant population is a docile population. He's ensuring we stay ignorant.
Quite frankly, it’s outrageous that Mark Carney is cutting Statistics Canada. If he was Stephen Harper or Pierre Poilievre, I feel like this would be getting a lot more backlash.
Carney of all people should know the importance of high-quality data and information about the country.
