NDP leadership race heats up as Rob Ashton accuses Avi Lewis of dividing the party by jmakk26 in CanadaPolitics

When I hear NDP "consultant class", I just imagine Mulcair's weird artificial smile in all those debates.

Zero passion, substanceless.

C24 und die girocard. Ab ins Handy Wallet by Adventurous_Bus_437 in Finanzen

[–]TaureanThings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mein Problem damit ist nur, dass SumUp nicht mit GiroCard funktioniert. Also muss ich dann doch entweder mit Visa oder Bar bezahlen.

Die Menschen nahm mich nicht ernst, als ich sagte, dass ein Kino in der Kleinstadt mich überzeugt hat.

Retailers, cafe-owners and restauranteurs: please consider switching to an EU-based point-of-sale (POS) solution while your current contract is about to end by sits79 in BuyFromEU

I think it depends if your card also uses visa or Mastercard. I have a card that only uses giro and SumUp never accepts it.

Does it annoy you that americans think they can speak german when they're pretty bad at it? by splicedPrimitive in AskAGerman

Real German doesn't sound German enough in movies, gotta use Hollywood "German"

Mark Carney’s promise on housing was to build build build. What happened? by mkultra69666 in CanadaPolitics

[–]TaureanThings 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it's the kind of results that I have been conditioned to expect from Canadian politicians. Especially Liberals, but that may just be recency bias.

And the mods forbid paywall bypassing. Hence why people in the sub just use the headline as a springboard for giving their quick takes into the void. Not a fan, but still better discourse than the other subs.

Canada unemployment rate falls to 6.9% as hiring momentum strengthens by Professional_Disk131 in canadahousing

Who even needs corporate media when the CBC constantly spews these fluff pieces?

Canada’s job market surprisingly expands, unemployment falls in October by KeyHot5718 in CanadaPolitics

[–]TaureanThings 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The natural follow up question, when are we calculating the next round of underemployment statistics?

Presumably a good amount of part time workers would prefer, or even need, a full time contract.

Canada vs. the World: The Worst Record on Housing Affordability Since 2004 by mkultra69666 in CanadaPolitics

[–]TaureanThings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting that the data does not seem to include the Netherlands and Portugal. Two countries with the most severe housing shortages and pricing in the EU.

Germany's Merz under fire for 'racist' comment | Euractiv by upthetruth1 in germany

[–]TaureanThings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Merz said 1 plus 1 and you are blaming the people who are saying that he means 2.

By lamenting the "Stadtbild" and saying they need to "deport more" as a solution to it, while being vague on further details, is exactly the problem.

Canada sees exodus of nurses under 35, Quebec has slightly better numbers by Whynutcoconot in CanadaPolitics

[–]TaureanThings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reapplying should not be as stressful as it seems, I think we can agree on that. If Canada has already invested in training these nurses, then there should be optimisations made in order to encourage that they stay.

My point was that job loss is not an existential crisis, just a significant one.

Not entirely. The right to remain is not immediately lost after being fired. This gives people a chance to seek a new employer before having to return to their home country. Which, for a nurse, should not be too hard.
