Thank you
Yeah, I see they are trying to start another occupation protest in Sept in Ottawa
The World Travel & Tourism Council projected ahead of Memorial Day that the U.S. would be the only country among the 184 it studied where foreign visitor spending would fall in 2025. The finding was โa clear indicator that the global appeal of the #U.S. is slippingโ www.ctvnews.ca/world/articl...
No - the US will be forced to import more food. And pay the tariffs ๐ has imposed on agricultural products from other countries. All that tariff revenue feeds the regimeโs tax cuts to billionaires. While ordinary Americans pay more for food. See how it works?
The idiots who won't stay out of the woods are the same idiots who disregard roadblocks put up for their safety, who disregard cordoned off areas set up by police and fire-fighters for their safety, who disregard DO NOT ENTER signs put up for their safety.
Jeezus
As a woodlot owner, I wouldnโt dream of being in โmyโ woods when the forest fire index is high. Nor would I want anyone else to be there, when a discarded butt, a broken glass or a spark from a muffler can cause millions of dollars in damage and loss of life. But there are still many stupid people.
Yep. Theyโd let it all burn. Theyโve already proven they donโt care.
This obey like sheep comment is way off base, itโs called caring for others, donโt twist it
No, I donโt agree, the reason for the fine increase was due to people not listening to previous bans, people can be selfish
I would hope not

Showing the fire fighters the same disrespect they showed HCW in the early COVID days. Shameful.
I think back to when 9/11 happened how humble it made us feel and yet vulnerable at the same time. We all felt mournful that day. I donโt know what happened since then but so many have become self centred and donโt care about the environment or their fellow human being. Some have lost their way.๐
It makes you wonder who he is destroying the country for.
1.2 million American immigrants are no longer construction workers, hospital staff, retailers, farm workers, and more. Food is going to waste because fewer are there to harvest. Buildings take longer to build. Fewer medical practitioners to help the sick. Trump is literally killing the USA.
smh
No industrious Americans are willing to take those jobs. The USA is facing starvation this winter. This is merely another Republican strategy aimed at reducing the American population. How many will perish? An estimated 10 million may starve during the winter.

So well said. When the front line firefighters ask something from the public, we should definitely listen and support them.
This behaviour boils down to lack of emotional intelligence which breeds ugly, destructive, selfish actions. We must not make excuses nor accept anything from them. Let's stop them!

No, they need to go and do the firefighters job!! I think the punishment for being such an anti-community-spirited jerk is forced ff duties, front line, weeks in a row with no breaks. Then they get assigned to help track and counsel the folks who lost homes, then a fine and jail!
What a lot of the overly entitled whiners don't realize is that while the fire ban was communicated by government, it was based on a request/recommendation from the fire departments - i.e. the front line. Pathological entitlement conflated with freedom is just another ploy of the far right.
/5 FYI, my uncle was a firefighter for over 37 years and I have seen a lot of what they go through, you try working 16 hours a day in the heat and smoke, you have no idea what they go through, their job is to protect you and everything around you.

I wish the moaners would go to the fire-fighters who've been putting in 16 hour days or people who have lost their homes, sit with them, knee-to-knee, and, looking them straight in the eye, explain why their 'right' to entertainment is more important than anything else on this planet...

We accept small responsibilities because our actions ripple outward. Avoiding forests in fire season or wearing a mask shows care for others, land, and community. Such acts remind us that freedom is bound with obligation, and living responsibly means safeguarding shared wellbeing.โค๏ธ๐จ๐ฆ
