We're only a few stops down the invasion list after Cuba

According to StoryGraph, I read this and I really liked it, but I have zero memory of it.
How does this asshole still have 40%??
With Ford's push for private healthcare, the more sick we get, the more money for his buddies.
I was going to email Ford and my MPP about the #GravyPlane this week. Then he sold it, and I thought I'd skip a week of emailing him. Now he's being a whiny bitch about it, so guess what Dougie - we're going to have a little chit-chat about why I'm scrutinizing you.
This is the most important thing you will read today β and probably the whole year, honestly.
We cannot let the AMOC collapse. For one thing it will make Iceland uninhabitable, and I would really like my children and grandchildren not to become refugees. But the effects will be almost everywhere.
I've wanted to read this!

Government of Canada survey on bright vehicle lights ends tomorrow! Make your voices heard www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
It's a lot to keep up with
Trying to email my lawyer and I cannot figure out the plural of Power of Attorney. PowerS of Attorney? Power of AttorneyS? I don't know, POAs it is I guess. #EnglishIsHard
I work for one. Our Bay-area execs don't even hide the fact that we're cheap labour, or that we also hire software engineers in Brazil because they're even cheaper still.
This sounds like the most East Coast medical research ever π
Very infuriating. He's going to spin this as "listening to the people" and they'll go along with it, ignoring that their ER is closed and their kid is in a 2/3/4 split class with 40 kids.
Most "Canadian" tech companies are actually owned by American investors. They only keep them HQed here because KW salaries are cheaper than SF salaries. They will absofuckinglutely not go for any government ownership model, they'll send those jobs to India before they ever let that happen.
Except of course there's no where to go. Tech companies are laying off employees by the thousands and no one is hiring, and the few that are have thousands of applicants for each role. And AI is a requirement for every job now.
Including threats from our employers. An exec told us this week, basically, if you're not all in on AI, there's the door.
There are so many rural areas of Canada - not even all that remote, even just a short ways off a main highway - that aren't served by cell networks.
Also, cell networks aren't infallible (Rogers outage, anyone?)
This should be a no-brainer.
So if someone opts in, and has taken photos of friends, relatives, kids, even strangers, theyβre βgiving permissionβ on behalf of all those people. So lots of people have no say in this.
The whole βopt inβ thing was always a charade but itβs approaching terminal nonsense at this point.
It sounds really fun, to be honest
I was driving behind a woman the other night who slammed on her brakes every time there was oncoming traffic with LED lights, and it was fucking terrifying to be behind her.
Transport Canada's survey on headlights closes in TWO DAYS. Share with everyone who hasn't filled it out yet.
I broke my own rule and went to Walmart on a Saturday.
Now I'm cranky and I only have myself to blame for this.
Ohhh. I'm on the cusp and generally relate to libra more, but this may explain some things...
A reminder if you find a tick on yourself in Ontario, go to your local pharmacy for quick cheap access to an antibiotic.
The business case that The Star article seemed to be pointing to was "well Quebec has several newer, more expensive private jets, so this is a savings really" π
100% this is because someone in Doug's inner circle couldn't afford a World Series ticket. He DGAF about the little people who've been ripped off by Ticketmaster for decades.
the height of when Snow Birds were out of the country, essentially making voting by mail impossible.
Am I pissed off at my Snow Bird mother for not even *trying* to vote in 2025? Yes. But I'm also pissed at Ford for designing the election for exactly that outcome.
Let's give some credit where it's due here... Doug did a LOT of voter suppression over the last few years - first with tight restrictions on what 3rd parties can say and reducing the number of polling stations to make it more inconvenient in 2022, then the super short election period in 2025 during
