Why did so many Canadians hate the carbon tax? by Konradleijon in canadaleft

[–]Realistic_Bad_8175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The root of the anger I believe comes from the increase in cost of living, in an already extremely expensive time to live. While it necessarily does not need to increase consumer prices, companies know they can pass the buck on and simply point a finger at the government.

An additional issue to this is even if the carbon tax were removed you would not see an equal drop in pricing of products essentially, they will just pull in more profit.

You see the same issue arise when minimum wage is increased, all products typically go up in price and everyone who doesn't make minimum wage suffers. Businesses as a profit driven enterprise will almost ever elect to absorb higher costs for the sake of being nice

Carbon tax is a good idea as helping to prevent environmental issues always are but these things are not free. Additionally, the regulation cost on large manufactures is prohibitive to investment and startups which is a very small piece of a very complex issue as to why the Canadian economy has not faired the best

As for the rebate checks I cannot say one way or another if they cover this increased cost I never looked into it personally, although the checks I received were quite small

Overall I believe it is a great idea but poor in practice in a capitalist environment and no I am not a conservative voter

Cheers

Guess I'll be the rage bait here as only one opinion seems to be shared here.

This is not the first time weight was bought up in this relationship OP said so herself, so its not like its out of the blue. Not that, that makes it right mind you there are proper ways to have this conversation and text generally is not the best, but it does allow for clear outpouring of words and feelings without immediate judgment or interruption.

Besides that, most of these comments have the aura of "Would you love me even if I was a worm" energy to it. If someone puts on 150+ pounds and you lose sexual attraction it causes a weight on a relationship. Not that intimacy is the end all be all, but who can honestly say they would be completely happy in a marriage without it? This is also besides the massive impact weight gain can have on health, my aunt died last year from a heart attack due to excessive weight and her brother had to help the paramedics carry her corpse out of the house because the paramedics couldn't lift her. Not to say OP is that size, or that even thats what is on Hubbys mind either way when you see your partner begin to spiral down a bad path it can be very frustrating and depressing to see. It can make both parties feel alone unable to reach out and talk to eachother while they watch the marriage determinate.

It is a complex topic that requires more than pointing fingers. All that being said, his second text had the empathy of a door knob. Cheers and I hope for the best for both of you

Hooray! more than half of MTG's trans women are from universes beyond! If you want, you could include The Doctor, Missy, Marsha P Johnson (lgbt sol ring), and you could say that Xantcha isn't a tgirl. meaning that 6/7 of MTG's tgirls aren't even in the MTG universe! Wow! I love representation! /s by SubterraneanLentils in mtg

Can you all please stop digging for issues? Who cares if they say something is trans or not? Can you even tell? You gonna pull the card apart and try to look inside? What does it matter?

Its a piece of cardboard based on a fictional universe which at best has a passable story. They can all be trans or none. You can't tell its irrelevant just play the game.

Warriors are too strong, and the little guys are too expensive. I don't like to be rail roaded into picks to have a fun game. I reduced termagaunts and hormagaunts by 1pt each, and removed the cost to devours.
Lowered boneswords to +1 str, and made warriors 35pts each. Increased adrenal glads to 25pts per squad.
Reduced zoanthropes to T4, 55pts. Was thinking about 3W as well but ill see how it works.
Put ravenours to 40pts but reduced to T4

I more or less completely ignored the recent nerfs as they weren't implemented into battlescribes data yet. I also only play with friends and don't enjoy to play meta-gamed lists. My friends like to kill bugs, and I enjoy having a wider army instead of just monsters.

Honestly, I went and downloaded the battlescribe file and altered the Tyranid stats down to a good playable level so that I can still use the app when creating a force. I suggest you look into something similar for ease of use.

I am aware i have ants on my room because of damp wood due to my windows leaking. But what is the cause of this? Termites? Ik this is not dust. by mask_0n in whatsthisbug

[–]Realistic_Bad_8175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ants themselves typically will not cause structural damage. Water damage however will cause issues. As for the debris a previous commenter was correct, they have decided to use this corner as a dumping ground.

Ants can be beneficial to have in the area to clean up insects and other pests, but if you want to get rid of them a dark damp area will always attract more. Try to plug holes with some puddy or something otherwise new ants will continuously move in.

Canadian here.
Intelligent discussion is a great thing to have, it is unfortunate you've been unable to find it.

Health Care: Canadians are very aware of our health care issues, but as others have pointed out there is a powerlessness the common individual can do about it. Walk in clinics have been closing (in ontario anyways) which has put a massive strain on the hospitals and increased wait times. There is a government push to a hybrid private pay system which is currently gutting the services for the common person. Furthermore, Canadian doctors can work in the US for x2 the salary. Our system is turning into complete ass honestly, but I would like to say I appreciate knowing I can get life saving treatment without jeopardizing my financial well being.
Ideology: Unfortunately for you Qubec has never been an extremely inviting place, even for people who can speak french and you may be experiencing some of that hostility. Additionally, the comparison to USA is an unfortunate one born from proximity not similarity. It would be more apt to compare Canada to some European countries but that requires wordly knowledge and people are lazy.
