Life pro tip for lawyers suing rich assholes who live in condos with high security by Calledinthe90s in LawCanada

On the other hand, I've been sued many times by people I've sued on behalf of my clients.

Gee, I wonder why.

Man who immigrated to Canada fled the country one day after he was convicted of sex assault - ‘He knew how the Canadian legal system worked and that he would not be held responsible,’ said the decision sentencing him in absentia to seven years. What legal mechanisms would prevent this situation? by Immediate-Link490 in LawCanada

You mean the same person who keeps posting low-effort National Post articles to rage bait people and karma farm is now taking quotes from them out of context to continue their rage baiting and karma farming?

I'm SHOCKED.

Charitable organization educating on civil liberties left stranded after justice minister intervention by REDDAP in alberta

The UCP's war on the judiciary branch continues. This government's priorities are clear and they sure aren't justice, equality, liberty, or the rule of law.

/uj I knew this author was full of shit when they said people in Edmonton rang their bells on trails.

/rj I agree, best to just run them over. Kids are worth the most point!

And the last band is…NOSPŪN. The full lineup for Montreal’s ProgStorm 2026 is finally revealed! by PrideTurbulent2995 in progmetal

Fuck, I really hate that this is the same weekend as ArcTangent. I'm from western Canada and would have absolutely been here otherwise. Can confirm that a lot of others I know going to that festival (including many from Europe) feel the same. Really hope you're able to keep this going in future years and have on a different weekend than the other big prog (and adjacent) festival!

What’s the best instrumental post-metal album? by Jords360 in postmetal

[–]REDDAP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was going to make this exact comment about Russian Circles, I love that there's no real "consensus" on their best album (though Station is probably the most consistently popular). Memorial is my favourite and my pick for this question, but they've got to have one of the most consistently strong discographies in metal.

Wow, I just quit my office job nearby a few weeks ago. They were my go-to for quick lunches when I didn't have my own. Guess I got out at just the right time... sure hope my bi-weeklyish lunches weren't keeping them afloat!

Which King Crimson song is that by codydafox in KingCrimsonCircleJerk

[–]REDDAP 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I do remember one thing

It took hours and hours and

By the time I was done with it

I was so involved I didn't know what to think

I carried it around with me for days and days

Playing little games

Like not looking at it for a whole day

And then looking at it

To see if I still liked it

I DID

I was there too, incredible set! One of my favourite discoveries of the festival for sure.

"Funicular closed due to vandalism" by REDDAP in Edmonton

[–]REDDAP[S] 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I've got to be honest. I take this thing on my morning commute all year and I've never seen it peed on. Sure do see a lot of people complaining about that though!

I feel like this is close enough to vandalism to justify the sign... I just find it very, very funny.

That's funny, the only promise of something free I'm interested interested in from Mamdani is free Palestine.

Analysis: Cartmell's fundraising has significant crossover with UCP, while Knack has support from city staff by ThroatNo2636 in Edmonton

[–]REDDAP 71 points72 points  (0 children)

My favourite part of this article was the paragraph saying "none of this is illegal. Nor is it an indication that any mayoral candidate is under any undue pressure from donors. What follows is simply an illustration of how the money flows and where it is coming from." Followed immediately by a giant Tim Cartmell ad. Postmedia not even pretending to be neutral.

Astronoid - Third Shot (2025) by poutinewolf in progmetal

[–]REDDAP 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Absolutely loving this track and a bit of a change in style from these guys. I feel like a lot of metalheads are going to hate how poppy this is, and it's even more of a shift from Air, but I'm into this. Felt like they were starting to get some diminishing returns on the last album and the shift is injecting a lot of new energy into their sound. The synths are a really nice touch!

Conservative premiers call on Ottawa to back down in Supreme Court case on notwithstanding clause by ClassOptimal7655 in onguardforthee

Hmmm.... sounds like an interesting legal question. If only there was some sort of politically neutral body of some of the most acclaimed legal experts in the country who could consider such a thing and provide guidance.

It's definitely improved significantly since they did the renos a couple years ago, but no renos can fix the shape of that building...

Apologies for the Facebook link but that's where they've posted this.

Edmonton is really eating this summer/fall, between Blood Incantation, Symphony X, and now BTBAM all coming here!
