The higher numbers I had in my head were probably related to specific products/industries

The cost of living polycrisis is estimated to be 45-70% caused by oil energy prices; yet very few provinces, and certainly not the feds, will do anything about oil dependency.

I'm all for extracting oil, since we're still a resource economy, but don't get high on your own supply!

I had a neighbour in Montréal who would drive to the same gym as me (700m away), and then walk on the treadmill for 10 minutes to warm up.

Tech bros preserving for an increase in parasitic activites that are not proven to grow local wealth (and likely extract it) while simultaneously eroding worker's rights.

Fuck right off.

Somewhere shy of a hundred back in the 00's when I was an electrician apprentice. Part of the reason I didn't stay in the trades was all the bullshit I saw. My boss was always on code and he always kept us on code, but that wasn't the case for all the other trades running around.

I personally never saw a FOB worker cutting code, but that's probably because the inspector was racist as fuck who would double check out work and hand wave all the white guys.

I fell into the FOB category at the time, but marginaply. I'm an immigrant flavour that's considered white now.

That's a case of someone not following code, has nothing to do with immigration status.

The workers don't define code...

The engineering control would be building bulb-outs at all these places to both reduce the distance pedestrians have to cross and just solve the problem of cars parking in the space.

Each refugee can keep 1 home for every 3 homes they build. Obviously one human isn't building 3 homes, but if a squad of 50 refugees build 150 homes, they keep 50 and sell 50. This includes turning single family homes into plexes.

Im conflicted on multi-use buiness sapce. Either homes can be replaced with businesses at a ratio set by each city, but probably somewhere in the 1/5 to 1/10 range; or business are excluded from the sell 2/3rds rule (aka you could build a 4 plex with 3 homes and one business, than keep one home and one business, selling 2 homes)

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

Two men stand in a pool of gasoline. One man has 20 matches one has 5.

The man with five matches gives up his matches under the promise that the man with 20 matches won't hit him. A couple other men with matches at the edge of the pool of gasoline promise to uphold this agreement.

20 years later the man with 20 matches takes the man who now has no matches' arm. All the signatories let it slide because the man with 20 matches had a decent claim to the elbow. 10 years after that, the man with 20 matches tries to take the entirety of the man with no matches; the men with matches on the edge of the pool are afraid to do anything less matches get thrown back at them.

Ukraine had nuclear armements.

They divested them under the promise that their sovereign territory would be respected.
