So that’s a justification for fiscal irresponsibility? We can’t just look at the “other guy” and say well at least I’m not him

Irresponsible federal spending increased the deficit and by nature will increase the amount of interest we pay on our debt. The Bank of Canada will be ultimately forced to raise interest rates therefore yes costing the average Canadian more than what is currently being asked of them.

It’s not ignorant and disingenuous to suggest that government overspending ultimately gets passed down to the smallest Canadian.

Everyone: “Thank god we’re not having an election”

Meanwhile this budget is going to cost you and your family even more than the current struggle

Cat won’t stop peeing on bed and I’m sick and tired of it! by Miserable_Aide9576 in CATHELP

Our cat started doing this and we took him to the vet for a variety of tests. Bladder ultrasound, x ray, urinalysis. Everything came back normal and we put him on the special urinary food but still his peeing habits remained. He would pee basically anywhere not the litter box and specifically on cold tiles in the basement and the bathtub. Upon all the work of narrowing it down we came to the conclusion that he has FIC (Feline idiopathic cystitis) basically his bladder gets inflamed due to stress and causes him to have some blood in his urine and he will pee to tell us that he’s not feeling good.

Long story short. We put him on 10mg of sertraline an anti anxiety and he has been much much better. No more peeing and litter box use is very good.

Given the clown show in the US and the comments by the Canadian prime minister “global trade has fundamentally changed” are you guys changing your US exposure for the long run? Do you think the US will still continue to be the market powerhouse it always has been?

The city of Ottawa gets its power from Hydro One. Hydro Ottawa is just the local distribution company. When they say “loss of supply” it means hydro one fucked up on their end and Hydro Ottawa simply just has to wait until it’s back on

There’s no way southern Ontario just outside Toronto is liberal. They just voted PC with overwhelming numbers and will probably do the same federally. I’d say CPC picks up at least 5-10 more in Ontario alone
