very year. After 40+ years of it either do it or shut up about it.

Use a sextant to ‘call noon’ every day? Lovely.

“Poilievre said he prefers that I stay as Prime Minister.” Imagine if Justin Trudeau says that line and then refers to the broadcast.

Without saying the Conservatives have MPs under foreign influence, he’s able to use Poilievre’s unwillingness to get a security clearance with a line that DEFINATELY indicates that the Conservatives have MPs under foreign influence.

It might be okay. Let people read the rules passed down, as maybe there’s legal loopholes in there that can be exploited. Maybe the municipality can still close roads or remove lanes. Once you’re not putting a bike lane on street, the rules don’t matter.

Freeland is incredibly capable - but can be tied, hand in glove, with everything Trudeau. Actually, the current joke is that Trudeau doesn’t even do any work as PM, he just gives it to Freeland.

PP is going ‘young, hip’ - maybe they could use Fraser as the next PM candidate.

Already started. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/elmwood-transcona-conservative-byelection-strategy-1.7326238 They tried to make “Sellout Singh” a thing. It’s right out of the playbook of “Dementia Don.”

True. With PP hitching his wagon to the SOCAL-right, he will see deflation of the strength of his brand when his ‘Trump-lite’ playbook becomes laughable after a Dem win in the USA. So, he’s frantic to force an election now while he’s polling higher.

I would smile if I heard Singh respond with your first sentence.

“Everything we’ve done (bugger all) hasn’t worked, so we’ll allow these companies to merge and reduce competition further with ‘enforceable’ conditions attached that everyone recognizes won’t do a thing.” Have they thought of nationalization? Competition with a crown company? A giant surtax on their ludicrous profits? Heavy regulation? A license/board scheme where their plans and prices need approval before making offers?

We have systems for that. We can join the various ‘teams’ of people doing the punching and we can, as a group, demand that they change their practices - next convention the group votes on replacing ball punches with a hearty ‘punchbuggy’ to the shoulder. Several leaders run and make promises on how hearty to make that shoulder-punch, and we select someone for the next election between face, neck and shoulder. You don’t get to complain about where the 3 parties are punching if you aren’t in there telling them to change their target - otherwise you got party die-hards saying things like “we’ve always punched to the neck, and that’s what Canadians want.”

Sorry buddy, but being dragged up and offered where to be punched, I’m absolutely exercising my right to choose (and to be honest, I’m kind of thinking neck at the moment). I refuse to be a sad sack that gets punched in the balls and laments that there was no other option.

Small cells and industrial plants are different. Charging some cells produces an off-gas of hydrogen, which requires you to change the air in the room with the cells, which means fans. You also have to ensure that the temperature of the room stays within certain bounds, which could mean bigger fans.

In terms of cells, batteries don’t really smell like anything I find. However, you need to top up the water levels which requires distilled or deionized water. Will they be doing water treatment on site?

All that being said, there’s more than enough room for a discussion about concerns. These yokels jumped right to death threats instead of progress. I wish nothing but rolling blackouts and a lack of jobs for them in the future.

I’ll take the party that is marginally better than the rest. Why wouldn’t you select the best option?

I think that’s what they meant.

Screw them. Let this be a lesson to any new business that thinks of investing in moving to the area. Kill any chance at a job in the area and let the community rot away.

What about cigars?

As a former card-carrying Conservative, I’m already deciding to vote ABC.

I could watch Boimler hop in the saddle and exclaim “Riker” over, and over…

Don’t forget the words of our leader of His Majesties Loyal Opposition, and possible future PM: “My view is that we need to engender the values of hard work and independence and self reliance. That’s the solution in the long run – more money will not solve it.”

He’s apologized since, but you as they say, you understand how someone truly feels the first time they say something, unfiltered.

2/10. I get the impression that they couldn’t afford good writers, but the production heads could afford a LOT of cocaine. The end result is a Trek-ish setting around the biggest Mary Sue trope ever written against a character that they could not ever get up to ‘likeable.’ Watch as Star Fleet Officers constantly break the rules, run off without communicating effectively, disregard orders, or just plainly talk-back with amazing levels of snark to superiors. Somehow they are all written up as heroes instead of all being removed from duty and forced to spend years in front of councillors for their war PTSD… or time-travel PTSD… or mirror-universe PTSD…, discipline and corrective actions for their MANY examples of insubordination, their ship broken up to figure out space-mushroom instantaneous-travel in a post-dilithium universe, remedial training once cleared to return to figure out the changes in the world around them after the jump, and even then being kept on a short-leash because they obviously can’t be trusted: they don’t even fully trust each other and have demonstrated time and time again that they make the wrong decision because of their own ego…
