Guess they took her calling for their invasion personally. Good work, Australia. I wish Canada had done the same when Tucker Carlson came here.
B.C. Conservative Leader John Rustad said in an emailed statement Friday he was “appalled and deeply saddened” by Sapozhnikov’s comments. He said her “remarks do not reflect the values of our party or the vision we have for a united British Columbia, and we are taking this matter seriously.”
But Rustad made no indication he was considering her removal from the party.
I don’t think you’re taking it that seriously, Rustad. If you won’t remove her from the party then it’s hard to see how her views don’t mesh just fine with your values.
Marina Sapozhnikov, who finished only 23 votes behind the NDP’s Dana Lajeunesse in Juan de Fuca-Malahat, said that before Europeans came to North America, First Nations Peoples “didn’t have any sophisticated laws. They were savages. They fought each other all the time.”
Right, that notably peace loving continent, Europe. You are Ukrainian, Marina. Your birthplace is literally under invasion from another European state, today.
I don’t know how they aren’t like walk ins with an emergency release.
I can’t imagine it would pass OH&S muster to not have an internal release on a walk in oven. I suspect poorly maintained equipment where the release was broken. Something similar happened to an Arby’s manager last year.
He’s such an attention-hungry dork it makes him very easy to hate on.
Canada’s immigration is controlled. You can’t literally just walk in and live here. You are against the current immigration targets that Canada has (well, had, recent news has the governing Liberals cutting those targets by 25%). I contend that your ire should be directed towards your provincial and the federal government’s housing strategy. It’s no secret that Doug Ford is in bed with exactly the private developers I have mentioned are not serving our society well. Why are we not adopting the Vienna housing model nationwide? The affordability issue is a solved problem where we are refusing to apply the solution because lining someone’s pockets is the first order of business for leadership.
Adding workers adds value to our society. Our problem is that most of the value created is going to a select few at the top. Such problems as people like to complain about with regard to immigration would disappear if we did a better job redistributing that value back to the people who create it.
No. Being anti-immigration is misunderstanding how growth and economics work. “Jobs” are not a non-renewable resource that can be consumed and used up. Humans do consume economic activity, it’s true, but they also are the source of it. More people = more needs = more jobs. This is obvious if you think about it for two seconds. It’s why cities don’t collapse under their own weight after crossing some population threshold. It’s why there is far more economic activity and available jobs in cities than in podunk towns where that imagined non-renewable economic activity hasn’t been used up yet.
Where there are issues in relation to population growth, ie housing, they are political issues related to how we develop infrastructure and housing. That is to say, our reliance on private developers and public private partnerships where things don’t get built unless someone gets to profit from it has not served us well. What we need is planning. Canada has plenty of space, no other country on Earth is as well suited as we are to bring in plenty of people. We could be building entirely new cities if we wanted, we have the room. What’s more, doing so could help us develop an internal economy that allows us to free ourselves from dependence on the American market, a dependence that has allowed them to turn us into what is essentially a resource colony.
You should acquaint yourself with the Labour Theory of Value.
I do, because I knew this race was going to be close and I went to sleep as I didn’t want worrying over this election to interfere with that sleep. Now upon waking I find out my sleep gets to be interfered with until those mail in ballots are settled. My lord, this is way too close for comfort.
I find I’m fine so long as I don’t rub my face on the cat and wash my hands before touching my face.
Why don’t you tell us what you think of people who get abortions, uzi? Or your feelings on trans people.
None of Doug Ford’s friends are heavily invested in bicycle manufacturers, I guess.
Why don’t you just stay inside your borders, AB government?

Wait until you look up the definition of transubstantiation.
The key is you have to make a specific plan rather than hope the other person takes initiative.
On Instagram, Shell Shock founder and CEO Tyler Hoover rebuffed the bands ditching the festival, and those criticizing it, saying, “I’m here to tell you, you’re not punk, you’re not hardcore. You people, the people that are trolling and the people that are talking shit, you guys are the mentally ill portion of society. You guys are the ones that are manipulated.”

Surely supply side economics will work this time. The million attempts before were just practice.
