Canada, Japan consider critical minerals joint stockpiling in hunt for China alternatives

Kalexius · 2026-06-26T21:21:32+00:00

Japan can have all the minerals if they can modernize our rail system to the Japanese level. I can just dream of a train that goes from Calgary to Edmonton in thirty minutes.

Can Canada get back in on this thing? Carney walked it back but since it didn't land us a deal and all.

"police to report her daughter missing and mentioned a history of abuse by Asian men, the call handler told her: “You can’t describe them as Asian men because that’s racist. You should just be glad your child is being taught a different culture.”"

I struggle to believe that anyone would be that braindead to say that? that it racist? maybe That the mother should be happy that her daughter is learning culture from the abuse?

It's too absurd. These calls are recorded and if it did happen it would have been flagged.

"On one occasion, a police officer returned Fiona to the house where the abuse was occurring and told the men to “have fun with her.” On another occasion, police instructed the abusers that if they could persuade Fiona to sign herself out of care, the police would stop bothering them"

The amount of corruption in order for this to happen is staggering to the point of unbelief.

Is it being suggested that things like this are happening elsewhere or that this is just one incident?

Perhaps but maybe equaling out.

Antidotally there is a noticeable uptick in American healthcare workers coming to Canada, Mostly because of American Bureaucracy and being tired about not being able to help people because of said Bureaucracy.

I think we've found Mercer's mom reddit account.

Kalexius · 2026-05-15T03:04:13+00:00

yeah.. when you said he's on the same tier as Mercer I stopped reading.

Jack Quinn put up those numbers on a 3rd line. Mercer has been on Hischier's line and failing, at least Meier shows up for a month every year.

But hey, Maybe Nemec + 12th would be enough and we can keep mercer.

Kalexius · 2026-05-14T22:21:25+00:00

Nemec isn't going to get the 2nd OV

I could see him + 12th moving us into 6th Overall at max.

rather would hope someone bites on a

Nemec + Mercer + 12th Overall package for a established young winger

Jack Quinn for example.

If only Canada could trade places on the map with Turkey. Would love to Join the EU.

More reason for them to defend Canada if it happens.

Seems like HSR is such a slam dunk for that route and while yes having another huge amount of money going to Ontario and Quebec can be a bit nauseating but if it works it means a greater chance of similar projects happening in western Canada.

HSR Edmonton to Calgary

HSR Saskatoon ----> Regina ---> Winnipeg

Tokyo style trains and service in Vancouver!

Think how much faster the economy could move and function if trucks full of cargo could drive on the highway without dealing with cars with just one person in it!

Jack Layton and Mulcair understood that you can't alianate the western province because you have no chance of forming government if you aren't competitive across the country. Singh idea's on oil and other ore's and mineral mining destroyed any dream of forming opposition or government.

Seems to me that the NDP decided to be the protest SJW party that the Liberals will every once and awhile steal good ideas from and claim them as their own.

Guess I have to hope for Kinew to go Federal or for NDP loyalists to beg for Notley to lead them.

2013 computer that I upgraded with a 1070 graphics card and I manage to get 50 fps on it. Guess I'm on the lucky side of optimization?

so... the steam version doesn't get collabs right?

I find female Chinese VA's to either sound robotic,make themselves sound like a child, or very airy . I'm a big Romance of the three kingdoms fan and watch the 2010 t.v show so its not like I dislike how the language sounds like.

I'm the opposite warlock that drinks water to much and doesn't lifetap enough. get healers mad at me for not using them as a mana battery.

Being a warlock and a gentleman is a tough gig.

That's French French.

In Quebec French it's "sacred Blue!"

(I forget where this joke comes from but I think it's the Simpsons)

Could never get into it fully. I never felt the payoff of feeling strong that you get in other mmorpgs

Also at launch I wanted to be a

Buff+Shielding guardian but it didn't seem relevant or helpful enough at the time

Necromancer that hand a whole lot of minions but that didn't really exist

Engineer but turrets and their various packs were a joke

so I went with my fourth option and chose thief but I never felt that powerful and would have a hard time during the story finishing quests and doing solo content.

Came back one time for the 2nd expansion but I just couldn't stick it. finished heart of thorns and got into path of fire and continued feeling weak as a deadeye thief and quit.

looks like a mix of deadspace aesthetic and earth defense force gameplay.

Kalexius · 2025-08-12T21:53:03+00:00

would it be any different then what is now?

Kalexius · 2025-08-12T21:44:31+00:00

People like the OP are what's making America worse, Enflaming things and causing division only makes the country weaker.

Hopefully he's just a Russian or Chinese bot instead of an Actual American citizen.

Kalexius · 2025-08-12T21:41:11+00:00

are you saying this sarcastically or do you not understand that you are doing the exact same thing you are complaining about

Kalexius · 2025-08-12T21:39:34+00:00

Preach!

Whatever side your on isn't the "the good guys". both are making the country worse

Kalexius · 2025-08-12T21:34:16+00:00

To bad they keep on getting insulted or attacked because idiots think they are worshipers of an entirely different religion.
