My understanding is that sales taxes disproportionately impact lower income families. It's pretty insane the globe wants to squeeze more out of them.

I wish we had better choices. Every road leads towards doubling down on the same tired old neoliberal crap that has concentrated wealth and power into fewer and fewer hands. But maybe it will be different this time? Just sacrifice more and work harder; those scraps might finally trickle down.

Helping the US military industry achieve economies of scale is not in Canada's interest.

Clearly the only answer is to build more pipelines.

It's just software. Musk can literally set the number to whatever he wants.

It's honestly a disaster for the world but I don't see an alternative. NATO is great but they are far away and I don't know that they would get involved if Trump ( or the next Trump-a-like ) decides to take a swing at us. We need to be able to deter the US on our own.

They always need an enemy. I wonder who he will attack when he runs out of enemies at home. 🤔

I'd feel more comfortable if we had a small nuclear deterrent. Trump worships Kim who only has a handful that can't even reach the US.

It's the "We have things that America needs" that scares the shit out of me. The US has a long history of slaughtering people to ensure US corporations have access to resources.

Damn those sea squirrels! Little friggers will chew through just about anything.

So slow. Enough of the baby steps. Just let corporations decide who is a citizen and what rights they have. Stop messing around and get back to creating shareholder value already.

They will just blame it on LGBTQ+ and Biden.
