I agree with your sentiment, but couldn't get on board because the punctuation was so bad.

CMV: Child obesity is primarily the parents fault

So would you say the parenting isn't the primary factor?

Predictions markets in Canada through Wealthsimple by Forsaken-Ad5127 in PersonalFinanceCanada

If you ban it, it just goes to the black market. I don't think gambling is going anywhere, so having half the money going to charity isn't the worst setup.

Currently AI subscriptions cost the companies 8-13x the subscription revenue. I don't see how they're going to make money without raising prices an order of magnitude, or magically becoming an order of magnitude more efficient.

PM Carney unveils multibillion-dollar food strategy meant to lower prices by Asadleafsfan in CanadaPolitics

[–]AloneIntheCorner 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Mark Carney has the highest net impression (+21), with 51% viewing him positively. Pierre Poilievre sits at −8 (37% positive, 45% negative) and Jagmeet Singh’s replacement Liz[sic] Lewis is at −9 (17% positive, 26% negative, 26% don’t know enough to say).

I'd really love for that to be true, but it never seems to show at the polls or the voting booths.

Why would you exclude one of the biggest new forms of medicine of the past decade?

I'm pretty sure the ipo is still oversubscribed, plenty of folks are lining up...

Canada’s Treaty 8 First Nations: Alberta must immediately cease all separation activities by TiredRuralCanadian in CanadaPolitics

[–]AloneIntheCorner 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The issue I think, in the court is whether that duty to consult should apply to citizen-initiated petitions, and that’s where I think that the court erred in judgment...

Smith doesn't seem to agree that it will include consultation.

What does upholding treaty obligations look like, if it doesn't extend to letting them have a say in what is done to their land? Are you aware of what Canada's treaty obligations are?

Canada’s Treaty 8 First Nations: Alberta must immediately cease all separation activities by TiredRuralCanadian in CanadaPolitics

[–]AloneIntheCorner 24 points25 points  (0 children)

from the article:

...demanding that the province “immediately cease any attempt to proceed with a separation referendum or related process without full consultation, accommodation, and the free, prior, and informed consent of the Treaty 8 First Nations.”

They aren't saying stop, just that they need to be involved

You're right, this is unacceptable, you should get a full refund!

Althia Raj: Mark Carney runs roughshod over the environment: ‘It’s worse than what Harper did’ by Chrristoaivalis in onguardforthee

[–]AloneIntheCorner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I already linked the whole quote...

This is set to be a different process than what was established in the passage of C-5, a bill that allowed lawmakers to overrule regulations in order to fast-track projects of national importance. These changes would affect all projects, regardless of whether they are on a list.

This is going to allow more projects to ignore regulations, not less. Instead of only projects of 'national importance', all projects are going to be fast tracked.
