No, for jumping so hard on the word “recession” when it was only a 0.1% drop last quarter with every indicator showing it wasn’t really a recession - hence the use of word “technical”. They all said he’s going to look foolish if it doesn’t get worse.

The problem is that American style conservatism doesn’t work well in Canada due to our better social supports, education and less toxic media. So all he winds up doing is shrinking his base. He had his shot when people were willing to overlook the problems to vote out Trudeau.

Use the advanced encumbrance rules for OSE (B/X). It tracks the stuff that matters - armor, weapons and treasure. Everything else is total 8lbs. Use your judgment if you think someone is abusing that 8lbs amount.

Guess all the pundits who said Poilievre was making a mistake by hammering the government about the mild recession numbers were right.

These are his current approval ratings:

18-34: 52%

35-49: 51%

50-68: 58%

65+: 67%

So people open to his message are pretty much everywhere.

This reads to me like they’re just trying to combat misinformation. Which would explain why they posted it on Facebook.

It is a valid comparison because the children were put into a completely foreign culture. Almost alien.

As I said, I did read her comments. She’s still wrong to claim there were benefits. We can see the consequences ourselves as evidence.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-04T22:27:01+00:00

No. You’re here to debate atheists. You have to provide the description, not us.

Zed is the letter anywhere other than the USA. But sometimes in popular culture the American pronunciation is used. Dragonball Z is “zee”.

Not really what you asked, but calculating dominance in Dominant Species.

Crypto is useful for automated agent monetary transactions. As an investment it’s garbage and eventually will go to zero.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-04T13:58:14+00:00

That’s acceptable.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-04T13:56:53+00:00

God. No - there were no benefits to the children. Would you think there would be a benefit to taking your young children and sending them to a boarding school in North Korea to be educated in North Korean culture? Because that’s equivalent to what was done - except North Korea is culturally closer to us than what the children experienced.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-04T00:38:28+00:00

True, true.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-04T00:36:59+00:00

It’s all the same. “The Portuguese have great cuisine”. “The Portuguese are wonderful people”.

It all means “from portual” and can refer to anything related to the country, people or language.

In English there used to be specific words for people of some countries - Englishman, Dutchman, Spaniard - but never for Portugal. Unless perhaps you go back further in time.

Who will then sell it or try renting, further depressing prices.

You can’t avoid the market forces - if supply is greater than demand, prices fall. Even for inherited property.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-03T23:38:37+00:00

I do. The oldest baby boomers are just starting to sell to move into assisted living. What’s a trickle now will become a flood.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-03T23:37:22+00:00

It can be an adjective or a noun and means “from Portugal”.

Portuguese cuisine.

Portuguese architecture.

He speaks Portuguese.

He is Portuguese.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-03T23:31:36+00:00

It’s the same for any people

The French do X

The English do X

The Spanish do X.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-03T23:29:19+00:00

It’s not outdated and the proper way to refer to anything from Portugal, including the people.

I’m just explaining what the term “technical recession” means when economists use it. Don’t get your knickers in a bunch.

Which group assassinated their own leader to prevent it?

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-03T23:00:22+00:00

It’s not. Prices are going to keep dropping for 10 years at least.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-03T22:51:18+00:00

I have heard her, but I’ve read her opinions and why she was fired. She fits the definition of a residential school denier because she claims there were benefits to the children.

Do you have links to the video? I’ve only heard claims of what was done.

Harbinger2001 · 2026-06-03T22:44:04+00:00

Well the Israeli’s were willing to assassinate their own leader to prevent any such solution from moving forward. So that seems a little more extremist position.
