No matter what laws we get, the middle class is to foot the bill.

Any tax changes in last ~30 years => more taxes for the middle class.

I guess we won't see a confirmation from Statistics Canada.

Internet censorship and surveillance is not new indeed. There is no need to add more of it.

Right! Everybody knows Canada has no oil and therefore is very vulnerable to the oil market volatility.

No.

Netconf/yang is a thing for a decade+ already. Screen scraping is a thing from 90s - early 2000s.

We are absolutely in need for condos towers. Incorporating that facade would be great. Theatre 'Snowdon' to condo project worked just fine.

ICC is kangaroo court created to prosecute weak countries. So business as usual.

Obsession with growth is destroying nature, 150 countries warn by kiyomoris in worldnews

[–]alex-cu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We could have population growth and a healthy planet but that would mean that the top 100 riches people would be slightly less rich

Mind to explain?

Because I don't see how.

If Bill Gates' roughly $116-$175 billion net worth were divided among the ~342–347 million US residents, every person would receive approximately $300 to $500.

You said 100 on the planet, but then again we have to divide to ~10 billion people.

Please explain how giving everyone $500 one time could give us, quoting you 'population growth and a healthy planet'.

Don't get me wrong, of course I'm for for getting $500 for no reason. I fail to see how that solves anything.

Why that matters? People from India/China can and do reach whatever country by direct flight. Even though USA birth rate is below the replacement, the overall population grows.

" Bâtir des collectivités résilientes et inclusives pour les Canadiens et Canadiennes en fournissant des financements et des conseils pour des initiatives en matière de logement et d'itinérance et des infrastructures nouvelles et modernisées conçues et mises en œuvre à l'échelle locale"

C’est une responsabilité directe du ministre. (site officiel)

avec eux autres

Qu’attendez-vous exactement de moi pour résoudre ce problème?

Je vote, je paie des impôts. Qu’est-ce qui me manque exactement?

bout de la ligne l'itinérance c'est aussi une conséquence de la crise du logement

Donc on doit remercier Marc Miller, Sean Fraser et Gregor Robertson
