If the parties don’t see even marginal gains in a region they won’t bother putting resources towards increasing that growth and eventually flipping a seat.

If we ever get away from first past the post they also need to see that it would benefit them to have second place.

It’s important to vote regardless of the outcome.

They already had one of those.

“I’ve got white children, they’re at the bottom of the hiring list here. So, there is no future for them. And the sad thing is they don’t even know what apartheid is.”

Maybe you should educate them about history and then there can be a move towards reconciliation that’s helps reduce racial violence?

In an August 2022 email, one detective noted: “In some vehicles, again [it] depends on manufacturer, the vehicle is still doing this despite the lack of an active subscription, and just sending the data back to the mother ship. This could be due to collecting user data for what the manufacturer sells it for, to providing this data to try to sell you on renewing your [subscription] package that lapsed.”

So it doesn’t matter if you’ve subscribed, they’re surveilling you.

On Monday, staffers placed signs on the White House lawn showing mugshots of immigrants, linking them to crimes with the word ”ARRESTED” written in all caps

WTF

Your statement is only accurate if tire exclusively talking about the food being imported. American fertilizer ingredients and a lot of the equipment (or materials for the equipment) come from Canada and other countries hit by the tariffs. There was an article a month ago about how the Vermont maple syrup industry is totally screwed because all their equipment comes from Canada.

Where do Globe & Mail and Toronto Star sit?

9 in 10 Black people in mainland France say they are victims of racist discrimination

France sees itself as blind to race. After a teen is killed by police, how does one discuss racism?

‘Black and treated as such’: France’s anti-racism protests expose myth of colour-blind Republic

What a silly statement.

True. It’s not a great article.

The auction Hudson’s Bay is pursuing with Heffel Gallery Ltd. allows items to be removed from the process if they are found to be owned by others or have historical or cultural significance that make them inappropriate for a sale.

So it can be protected and blocked for auction?

I don’t see a statue of limitation in the provinces health privacy act and thus most certainly contravenes it. In fact, the health authority doing nothing about it also contravenes it.

I don’t see why the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner (OIPC) wouldn’t be the investigative authority here. I also have no doubt the college of physicians where they are currently registered would be interested.

This was such a fun series. It would be a good entry point for newbie folks too. It reminded me a lot of Stinky Dragon and only made me want more video based livestreams of that show.

There was someone on CBC Radio discussing this yesterday and they pointed heavily to how effectively conservative talking points are being pushed online by young social media influencers. Some unrelated research has shown that the beginning and end of a lot of political information younger people are receiving is on social media. Heck, I saw one article discussing how a lot of young people go to TikTok first when they want to learn how to fix something. What a stupid resource to go to for something like that, so if people are trying to figure out how to change a tire on TikTok they’re certainly also going there for their political information.

The seemingly obvious answer is that the other parties should be working more heavily on putting out counter messaging on these channels, but the way the algorithms work these people won’t even see the content because the algorithm ignores it and only provides further polarization of ideas.

The article that is linked (which is not much of an article) has translated the original source poorly. It’s being blocked because content on it was deemed discriminatory (not that it’s propaganda).
