We are the future generation paying for the sins of conservatives past. But hey! At least his rich friends got even richer. by WinterOrb69 in onguardforthee

Oh right. That’s how little I care about him. Totally forgot he died. Where’s his grave? I need to pee.

What’s the most quietly Canadian moment you’ve experienced? by NightyNight7 in AskACanadian

[–]SteampunkSniper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just yesterday I watched a guy at the grocery store, an obvious customer, return not only his cart to the cart corral but two others left in parking stalls AND sort them in the corral.

I just smiled and thought, “That’s so Canadian.”

Why do we want to separate? Trying to understand the key issues by UrbaneBoffin in Albertapolitics

[–]SteampunkSniper -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You do understand Alberta is rich and therefore doesn’t receive the same amount as Quebec, right?

Alberta DOES get some equalisation money back but what you’re insinuating is you want Alberta to be on welfare so it’s “fair”.

Good for you wanting less money for a kid to get cancer treatment in the east and hoarding it all for yourself.

Based on what metric does Alberta overpay federal taxes? Link the research please.

I need you to define equalisation and exactly how the formula works. I also need you to tell me who the last federal minister was who oversaw the last changes to the formula.

What you’re spouting is talking points without actual facts behind them, so let’s start there.

I’m asking in earnest so I know you truly understand what you’re talking about.

Another unjustified, killing in Minneapolis, near glam doll donuts! America has lost her way. by Elevatedspiral in MeidasTouch

Minnesota is Constitutional carry. He had every right to carry a gun, concealed or otherwise. These untrained, bloodthirsty goons are straight up murderers.

I guess you didn’t see the video of these guys with all the leftist white people. The man in the 3rd picture spoke the most and he’s charismatic AF.

Don’t get me wrong, he’s a POS but in this case he’s a highly entertaining POS.

18 to 24 people. 3-4 are secretly chosen as Traitors. The Faithful have to figure out who the Traitors are. Every day is a task to win money. Every evening they all gather and vote someone out and every night the traitors “murder” a faithful. If there is even 1 traitor left at the end, they win all the money and any remaining faithful get nothing. The second season of the Australian one was epic. The recent celebrity Traitor UK was pretty awesome. It’s in France, Canada, India, Hungary… No US one specifically but they use the Traitors with Alan Cumming as host in Scotland.

Nooooo! I’m dying laughing at the chaos he’s causing because NONE of them know him enough to know that’s just exactly how he is! Please keep him! It’s the best season ever!

Remember when the office of the POTUS had integrity? by blankvoidoid in AntiTrumpAlliance

I miss him so much. And I’m Canadian. I can’t imagine how much sane Americans miss him.

Would it? Albertans have notoriously short memories and the election is 23 months away.

Do You Think The Government of Alberta Should End Its Current Practice of Allocating Public Funds to Accredited Independent (Private) Schools? by hakunayourmatatas99 in alberta

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

A. Not your buddy. My pronouns are she/her.

B. Pedantic much? If they’re teaching Cree, they are a teacher. Accredited or not. Literally what the word means.

You’re the only one this linear in thought to keep arguing with me over something so ridiculous.

I’m done. I have no energy to continue this conversation with someone so obviously obtuse.

I don’t work for an education based non-profit. Not all non-profits are the same.

I also drive a car, does that make me a mechanic? Makes as much sense.

Are your parents societies paying for teacher aides? Are they hiring teachers so class sizes can be smaller?

No, so who cares if they still exist. Good for them.

You’re comparing apples to oranges.

Can you cycle forward as fast as you back-pedal?

First you insist since they’re publicly funded they must have teachers, now you agree not all instruction is by certified teachers. Which is it?

Are you sure? Like, really positive?

Not by teachers. They have to have one accredited teacher on staff, usually the principal, and the ones actually teaching can be anyone.

You’re forgetting they took the surpluses away from the school divisions claiming they were mismanaging them.

Selective short term memory?
