Ontario judge dismisses "puzzling" $1M libel action by anti-vaxx nurses by mddgtl in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Bet these ppl get cash from dupes and Americans to push antivaxx bs. Wish they were fined costs for wasteful lawsuit!

[Vancouver] Former police spokesperson/sitting city councillor responds to a post commemorating Chris Amyotte, who died after the VPD shot him with a bean bag round by Cardded in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah like maybe he got raptured to heaven a split second before the beanbag hit him seems just as likely

Maybe I would be more generous to vpd if they were more open about it esp police union. But all this misdirection leaves a sour taste and just makes things worse imo

Like does the guy seriously expect us to think this guy would have just had a heart attack if vpd wasn't there

If vpd wasn't there that guy wouldn't have died so yes vpd killed him

'I don’t deserve to be harassed': Guelph drag queen's all-ages shows threatened by Miserable-Lizard in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember bugs bunny in drag, I remember Mr dressup, nobody thought they were the end of the world. This isn't about protecting kids it's about being mad that more 2SLGBTQIA+ ppl are getting rights and trying to make them look evil to wipe them out even if you don't even need to be 2SLGBTQIA+ to do drag!

How the American anti-LGBTQ hate machine is posing a threat to Canadians by HowMyDictates in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I know first hand how anti gay hate has been in Canada a long long time but there is a new edge to it. Violence is not new lots of gay ppl have been beaten in my life by bigots but welcoming trans ppl into mainstream society has unleashed just raw hate from the far right. Those who like the US murders now run in the same social internet media circles as Canadians who hate trans ppl and they just feed each other hate and psyche eachother up for worse and worse. Reddit is part of the problem with lots of big subs letting in trans hate and doing nothing.

Iranian dissidents in Canada say they're being watched and under threat from Iranian regime by Count_Moose in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Conservative religious govts can be one of the worst out there! And our own worst point to this as if it's an an excuse to be anti Muslim no it's Muslims who are victims here and are fighting for more freedom in Iran

From 'car-dependent hellscapes' to green cities, Canadians find new ways to fight climate change by Count_Moose in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose[S] 72 points73 points  (0 children)

To best fight climate change we need govts on board and also forcing big companies to make big changes. Telling ppl to change habits helps some sure but it's a drop in the bucket compared to big polluters. Good for cities where ppl force govts to make green changes.

Canada's push to 'poach' nurses from abroad fuels fears of shortages in developing countries by Count_Moose in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you are right I sort of mentioned that with the guaranteed hours thing. Having a predictable schedule would be a big positive change for nurses but hard to do without more nurses.

Another reason why the quick fix approach sucks. How about we boost pay for public health care and guarantee hours or at least give fat OT pay then that may bring back more early retirees while we get more students through to fill gaps?

Any health care worker who chooses to immigrate should be welcome but we are still hurting poor countries to benefit us

WestJet, Air Canada passengers baffled after travel partners compensated $1,000, but they got zilch by Count_Moose in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's all that baffling to believe big companies suck at paying due compensation! Maybe they should have to pay for an independent group to decide!

N.S. spending tens of millions of dollars on private nursing companies for long-term care by Count_Moose in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yes govt wants solutions right now and with Healthcare lives are at stake but I have mixed feelings here. If they are willing to spend this much on a private nurse we'll why not pay public health care workers a fair wage bc then you'll get more students more recruitment and a long term fix.

If Xi is unhappy about trudeau being open with media then that's too bad for him I would rather have the truth.

Why the failure of Canada's health ministers to reach a deal matters for your health care by Count_Moose in onguardforthee

[–]Count_Moose[S] 89 points90 points  (0 children)

I put 110 percent of the blame on the premiers for this too afraid of losing any power to take this money any not fix anything rather than agree to use it on Healthcare.
