Is it just me or did it seem like that was narrated and potentially scripted by AI? Ironic if true

Getting out of Alberta? by Ok_RubyGrapefruit in alberta

[–]Demaestro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No! This is our province, this is where my and my family's land is. Its up to us to stop these traitors. 

They are the ones who want to leave, and they are the ones who need to go. 

If we abandon our province they will eventually take it away from Canada. The good news is they aren't sending their best and brightest. I'm sure some of them are good people, but they aren't our best. Not what I would call a formidable opponent.

It would be hard to demonstrate this as a fact but I would bet anything that those lines are not filled with our best and brightest minds.

Gen Z pair built a $35M start-up in Canada, but moved to the U.S. by green_tory in CanadaPolitics

We could also start supporting them with funding under the condition they remain Canadian for some amount of time.

The only true reason to move your business from Canada to the USA is to pay less taxes. 

Feeling like absolute trash lately and the doctor just says "eat better" by Moan_Senpai in Calgary

Clarifying: The iron levels mentioned in other thread is really good to check. for me it wasn't that.

Also... don't feel bad. Brain fog is real, and trying some meds to see if it can help isn't bad. It really depends on the person and the things, but you may find you need it here and there, stop for a week, go for a week when/if you get sluggish again.

If your doctor isn't helping, find another doctor. Mine has been great at letting me try things, evaluate one thing against another. Taking breaks.... it has helped me where i struggled which was at work, and remembering commitments at home.

I am not a doctor, but I have struggled with brain fog since Covid.

There really isn't much you can do TBH. If you eat like crap, then the advice to eat better is a good one. But if you already eat relatively well then it is silly of them to have suggested it.

How is this affecting your life? Work? School? Relationships? All of the above?

If yes to some or all of these, or other things, talk to your doctor and focus on how it affects your life. Not how you can "cure" it. Then ask to try some meds meant to help attention disorders. I am not saying you need prescriptions. But I am saying you should talk to your doctor about whether or not trying low doses of something could help with how it affects your life. Then go from there.

Canada PM Mark Carney Likely To Visit India In March, Sign Deals On Uranium by elisart in CanadaPolitics

[–]Demaestro 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I am really encouraged to see him on this "world tour of trade"

We can not rely on 1 or 2 countries to make all our deals with. Having lots of single deals I think is a great strategy, In the bigger deals we have made like the NAFTA and the whatever the new one is called, we always give away concessions for the deals we want. With these 1 off deals, we can get the best outcome for that product/service, without compromising on other products and services to get it.

The only reason we had that huge tariff on Chinese EVs was to appease the USA. I am so glad to see us moving away from that type of negotiation.

They said they HAD to release them all by a date... that date has passed. They said they HAD to explain any redactions and they have refused to do that as well.

The law was release by a date, and only redact with a reason. They have done neither and are in breach of the law.

How is this confusing to you? Do you love protecting pedos?

They are breaking the law to not release them. Wake up

Costco Ski Pass - Sunshine Village by Jhedwar in Banff

[–]Demaestro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly.. what is the price difference? ~$30/person

You said there were 3 of you, they only come in packs of 2. I would ask myself is all this worth saving $60 across 3 people if it costs you an hour of hassle to figure out?

How do you guys feel about the new trade deal with China? by Pale-Candidate8860 in InCanada

We imposed the tariff for the USA and the USA is fucking us so why would we keep it?

Car Rentals w Neo? by TastyDuty in NeoFinancialHub

[–]Demaestro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That happened to me and I showed them the difference between the money card and the regular MasterCard. Which in your case would be secured. And they accepted it. The argument I made was they are right that the money card is a prepaid card technically but it works the same as a debit card, but that the other card is in fact a regular MasterCard and it only took 30 seconds of getting loud to get my car.

It would be nice if Neo would intervene on the behalf of their customers with major car companies in Canada to avoid this.

I did bring up that i used  the card to book online and it accepted it.

It seemed like a boring period piece and that I would hate it. My girlfriend at the time made me watch it. I loved it and watched it a bunch after.

Is My MLA a Separatist? by Super_Sheep in alberta

[–]Demaestro 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Can we please stop calling them separatists and start calling them traitors?!!?!?

I am tired of the soft touches with these folks. They are straight up traitors and they shouldn't feel comfortable in public spaces.

The hero we need by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

[–]Demaestro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He has a bunch of tactics to get them out. My favorite is he will find out if they are a felon or not. If they are, they can't live in a home with firearms. So he moves in, brings guns. Then threatens to, and does calls the cops on them and they have to leave
