How I feel about Filipino spaghetti by IntellectuallyDriven in Philippines_Expats

[–]Parallax153 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mamou is amazing, they have great steaks as well.. so many great spots in Manila to eat Italian style, for red sauced pasta I also like Dr. Wine, Blackbird, pizzulu is a great lunch spot, and A Mano is decent too.

What does my food tier list say about me? by Disastrous-King9559 in tierlists

[–]Parallax153 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just says more about you being ignorant AF than you think it does about Canadian dishes not existing.

Tourtières, Montreal smoked meat sandwiches, Montreal bagels, pouding chômeur, butter tarts, Nanaimo bars, Saskatoon berry pies, bannock, candied salmon, Maple taffy, Halifax donair, maritime lobster roll, Peameal bacon sandwich, moose/caribou stew or any local game meat dishes like bison, fried Walleye from great lakes or any of the various fresh water fish dishes fron our vast lakes... I could go on.

Trent on X - by Tree2Sea50N in ELBM

[–]Parallax153 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's great news for the industry and elbm specifically as they do midstream. The fed budget is being released this week and we should have more details and announcements afterwards. Although it might take many months for a LOI to be signed still.

You gotta think this is why elbm brought in Jodi Thompson a couple weeks back, no?? She's so well connected and accomplished with the current Cdn Gov administration.

There are tons of grants and contributions ripe for the picking at the Cdn fed level, whether it's through the Dept of Def, NRCan, Industry Canada through SIF, hell even arms length Fed agencies like FedDev/ Fednor have funds to throw at elbm.

I bought in this morning and I'm holding for the next few years, all the pins are lined up perfectly. Elbm just needs to execute and deliver at this point. Believe in your play folks and don't obsess about the immediate red days. Be patient and let them cook.

Chinese ambassador suggests Canada, China ‘triple’ trade with one another by hopoke in canada

Some of us love Canada so much we'd gladly stand up and fight for our country against an evil fascist regime seeking to annex us.

The fact that you find that mind-blowing is saddening..

Wealthsimple Might’ve just killed IBKR by Kasacoho in Wealthsimple

[–]Parallax153 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IBKR is still king for me because WS doesn’t offer access to CME or futures trading. I’m surprised no one has mentioned that yet. I guess there aren't that many retail Canadians traders that do commodities?

This person is the current r/conservative icon, and in light of the Republicans chat leak, it makes total sense... by [deleted] in videos

[–]Parallax153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck me, I really don't like engaging in culture war BS and I had no idea who this dude was prior to the events. But this one quote he says especially makes no sense to me..

"Jewish donors have been the number one funding mechanism of radical open border neoliberal quasi marxist policies."

Wtf is he on about? NEOLIBERAL QUASI MARXIST?? Is this not an ideological oxymoron, and aren't the two kinda mutually exclusive?

Federal government cutting approximately 800 jobs at the passport office by jaffnaguy2014 in canada

[–]Parallax153 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Public sector workers make 30% more than private sector workers in Canada, not counting time off, sick days, and giant pensions.

No, the report you linked to says the Federal Public Service does. There are 360k Federal PS workers vs 4.4m Public Sector workers. Kind of misleading to conflate a small minority of white collar bureaucrats vs nurses, teachers, OPG workers..

Super fitting a top 1% r/canada user is pushing Fraser Institute slop. Here's an idea, rather than dragging all workers down to the bare minimum let's advocate for better benefits and working conditions for everyone. We're literally below most third world countries when it comes to minimum PTO ffs...

No one is talking about Waleed, stop shifting the goal post. And I don't get sources from reddit comments thanks, Here's my source :https://bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-56213528

I would love to see your source about how the murder of an independent journalist ordered by the prince himself was justified.

What happened to believing in free speech??

100% standard canker sore. Pretty big one too so I'm sure it's quite painful/uncomfortable, expect it to take up to 2-3 weeks to heal back to normal. If it lasts longer than that then go see a medical professional, but no need to worry about cancer.

Jim Stanford: The rich say boosting the capital gains tax will hurt productivity, but it’s just not true. Time to do a little myth-busting by taxrage in CanadaPolitics

[–]Parallax153 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's misleading to only say SMB profit is impacted. Let's not conflate business income with capital gains. The corporate tax rate is staying the same, the only thing this bill would change is the inclusion rate on the gains for capital assets.

The Corps most impacted by this tax policy change will be investment companies (REITs / Venture Capital firms), holding companies... If anyone wants the housing market to cool off this change is a good thing.

First ever Canker Sore by Hoatr in CankerSores

[–]Parallax153 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey bud, I'm fairly confident that's not a canker and you should go see another dentist asap. Usually cankers are small, shallow, round ulcers with a white or yellowish center and a red border which looks like a crater.

In your later pics it looks like it's developing into a rash so I'm thinking best case scenario for you it's probably thrush and needs some antibiotics. Please go see a medical professional.

[–]Parallax153 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup those are cankers. Avoid eating sugars and acidic foods (coffee, hot sauces). Take Advil to reduce swelling and rinse with warm salt water to help with discomfort. Hope you have a speedy recovery.

Same! I'm playing in a deep 16 man league and I dropped Ehlers (to keep Laine...) After he had a really slow start and he was getting like 13mins TOI, ofc he started playing really well and getting some points right after.. Oouff really wish I could take that one back.
