PP looks cool AF in this picture.
Populist right wing nastiness has a good publicist in Canada, while the centre is a washed out divorced dad and the left wastes itself on uninspiring minutiae.
We’re fucked.

All I want is Corbyn to win Islington North.
Edit: HE DID!
Yea, in fact if Labour fucks this up, Reform will ride a wave of populist right wing nastiness in the next election…
Fuck the Tatmadaw.
The “Right” harps on the fact that they are Syrians to somehow paint all Syrians, all Muslims, all immigrants with the same brush, stoking fears of population replacement and other such bullshit.
The “Left” says that we have already laws for mob violence, apply them. Bad people who are Syrians exist just like bad people who are Italians exist and just like bad people who are Americans exist and bad people who are Canadians exist. There is zero reason to weaponize the bad behaviour of those bad people to enact discriminatory policies against an entire community. Just apply the existing law. Persecute these assholes for the homophobic hate crime they did. Why is that not enough? In fact, the only people who would say this would not be enough are people with a hate agenda of their own, i.e., the far right…
One major difference between Canada and the US is the Westminster parliamentary system and the fact that we don’t have a quasi religious commitment to a piece of paper and founding daddy issues. The two party system will probably never become as ironclad as in the US because we don’t have the Imperial Presidency where every election is an event of cosmic proportions. Instead our system has a lot more space for power sharing (minority governments, coalitions, supply and support, etc). Plus Québec, which is literally Canada’s saving grace, no matter what Canadians think. (New Canadian who loves QC here.)
Why do you say that the UN Sustainable Development Goals are a recipe for trouble?
Palestine has the right to defend itself.
Sounds like kinks to be ironed out rather than insurmountable problems tbh.
I haven’t read the article but… :)
Generally the big problem we still have to solve with reviewables is storage.
I think that one advantage that the NL has with renewables is that they don’t have the storage problem, because they can always reroute to more pumping water out the polders.
Do you know of any version with English subs?
This kind of hate crime should be persecuted to the fullest extent. Lynch mobs like this should never be normalized.
I went with this page:
Canada’s provincial and territorial governments are responsible for education. They follow government standards to ensure high quality public education across the country. School is mandatory for children from about the age of six years old to 18 years old. Our study environments are safe and welcoming.
Schooling is mandatory until 18. Any other activity has to not interfere with that. Beyond that, do what ye will.
The entire post war international order was to make sure Germany does not engage in military power politics in general and France does not do it in Europe in particular. The EU functioned as designed and that’s good. WW2 is still too raw for anyone to accept German military power in Europe. It’s just not politically acceptable.
And the author completely underplayed the role of NATO. The deal has always been that American muscle will be funded by German money. The EU and NATO are not at odds with each other, they complement each other.
Also, bro should not drop a quote every other paragraph, it makes it annoying to read.
Reminds me of this article of Yanis Varoufakis : Who’s Afraid of Central Bank Digital Currencies?
We need a goddamn UBI and a the definancialization of housing.
The ICC arrest warrants were never going to deter anyone from doing anything, so the UKs stalling tactic is therefore irrelevant to saving lives. In fact, it gives the court a chance to strengthen its jurisdiction. Not worried about this.
“Why are the Palestinians violent?”
He is a douchebag, and that’s on a good day, when he’s not a creep. But he’s definitely glowed up from his “mean Milhouse” days.
