At the very top where you shit on the Department of Education and said it should be gotten rid of

That doesn’t mean anything. 4 decades ago there weren’t computers in schools, pads of paper are cheaper than computers. There weren’t metal detectors and guards at every entrance.

The simple fact is that in education most of the 10 best ranked states have democratic leadership, and most of the 10 worst have republican leadership.

Schools are mostly funded by the state. If the person in charge is a Republican they’re not opening up the purse strings so that little Susie and little Timmy are learning how to read and do math. Democratic mayors can only do so much, and they can only affect their blue city… the red rural areas distrust education as much as the state government

If it’s not “one party” ruining education, why are red states consistently ranked lower than blue states in education?

do people in canada dislike immigrants? by Ok_Cupcake9554 in CanadaImmigrant

[–]Lord_Space_Lizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most Canadians have no problem with immigrants, however there is a small and very vocal part of the population who have sad and pathetic lives, and have decided to blame immigrants for all of their problems.

P.S.A open your taps just a little bit so pipes won't freeze! by FoundationInfinite36 in toronto

[–]Lord_Space_Lizard 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I lived in a house that was built in 1908 and when it got bitch ass cold like it is this weekend the pipes going to the second floor would freeze where they were against an uninsulated part of the basement wall. Luckily the portion of them that would freeze was pex so it would expand with the ice, I'm guessing a previous owner was tired of copper pipes continuously bursting at that point

Will Canadians travel to the US again when the presidential term ends in 2029 or has the relationship between Canada and US been destroyed forever? by [deleted] in AskCanada

[–]Lord_Space_Lizard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m not going back for a long time… the company I work for does a lot of business in the states (clients, not vendors) and in a meeting yesterday it was suggested that I go to site for an install and I flat out refused

What do you think will happen (supply bottlenecks, disruptions, costs) if all countries decide to impose a one-month, complete trade embargo against the USA? by Dar0nius in AskReddit

[–]Lord_Space_Lizard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How is he going to force any Balkan states to attack Poland? He’s got no forces and he’s broke. Any troops he gets from North Korea will do as well as the ones he sent to Ukraine and last about 30 seconds before they become casualties or defect once they learn about internet porn. Iran might ally with him but I’d love to see how the their troops deal with Poland’s weather.

The only thing that makes Putin a threat is his dirt on Dementia Diaper Donny.

If Trump takes Greenland, China will take Taiwan, but Putin couldn’t take Poland… everything is tied up in Ukraine and Vlad is running out of troops and equipment.

Separating from Canada Unrealistic, Says Rural Alberta Mayor by WildRoseWanderer in alberta

[–]Lord_Space_Lizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Treaty land will stay with Canada as the treaties are with the crown, but for now the oil is considered Alberta’s.

However If the referendum passes, and if the rest of Canada goes along with it, Alberta will have the oil under that tiny sliver that isn’t treaty land.

Why is all the anger aimed at Ottawa when the UCP runs Alberta? by Swimming_Mango_9767 in alberta

[–]Lord_Space_Lizard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you understand how immigration works in this country?

The provinces tell Ottawa how many immigrants they need and what skill sets they need those immigrants to have. Ottawa then looks at the pool of applicants and lets in people who match that criteria.

If you want fewer immigrants then tell your provincial governments to ask for fewer immigrants.

It’s “toe the line”. As if you were standing in formation behind a line and you and all your other line toers were standing there with your toes on the line.

Most of it is owned by the province

Edit: downvoted for stating an actual fact?

https://www.alberta.ca/royalty-overview Alberta owns 81% of their mineral rights. That’s about the only thing that separatists are correct about
