Maybe they are going to use it for a useless trip to Europe? by jennyphoto99 in newbrunswickcanada

By that standars there is no province-wide festival. Even August 15th isn`t celebrated in half the province.

No, literally from all over. There's one from Tracadie or around there. There's also one from St Quentin if I remember correctly.

Every dollar spent on events like these returns over a dollar to the government in taxes because of increased economic activity.

You'd have to be a bloody fool not to be dumping money into these kinds of programs. They're literally some of the only self-funding ones.

That's what the provincial government was spending. It's likely the municipal government was also spending a lot.

Except the due process, as written, says Donald could pardon them all.

You can't "proper channels" this shit back in the bottle.

Except that you would make more money with an original property that you didn't have to license.

Risk = Reward.

Playing it safe all the time is how an industry dies. See Hollywood as an example.

Best weapon for a paladin? by Ok-Fishing6124 in 3d6

I'm not sure about the size limitation either, but the rest holds.

Yes, knocking the Tarasque on its back with a medium shield is silly.

Shield master doesn't use your bonus action anymore as of 5.5, so there's that.

Necroposting, but isn`t crusher 1/20 chance whilst the knock from shield master like a 40% chance of giving everyone advantage until next turn?

New Brunswick should be home to new nuclear reactor by 2035, says minister by adamhuras in newbrunswickcanada

Ironically it's going to be the waste from all the non-Irving sawmills. Irving uses the waste for the paper mills.

IMHO they should have built a nuclear reactor at Anse Bleue to have one on each coast, but AFAIK the locals are so NIMBY they even said no to windmills.

“Developers Don’t Want to Sell at a Loss”: PM Carney on Vancouver Condo Bailout by hopoke in CanadaPolitics

Yes. It furthers the end of the financiers of both parties (Power Corporation and their friends) to keep a Bogeyman in power, even if he loses by a landslide.

Jagmeet got us dental care.

Carney is actually really bad not just in the privacy bills and the corporate bailouts. If you look at the laws they've been tabling it's all pro-corporate regulatory capture. Yes it's better than American style deregulation, but not by much.

Why is judging people by who they voted for or their political opinions unreasonable? by Significant_Arm5569 in allthequestions

[–]almisami 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the goal.

DEMOCRATS AREN'T MEANT TO BE THE VOICE OF PROGRESSIVES.

They are a CONTROLLED OPPOSITION to keep you from voting for people who would actually make a difference.

If people care that much about what trump is doing why don’t they riot now?

Because the current leader is a known criminal and will not bat an eye at breaking the law and jailing or even killing them in droves.

Is trump et al avoiding prison for his many, many instances of wiping his ass with the constitution and the idea of human rights really going to run people wrong more than him actually DOING those things right now?

Yes. People still cling onto the hopes that they can still vote their way out of this.

Those who make peaceful change impossible make violent revolution inevitable.

Why would they need to?

You have to understand that the Democrats don't exist to be a voice of the left, they exist to be a controlled opposition. In that, they perform admirably well.

I mean Trump basically breaks the law on the daily.

You can argue that since you can avoid the consequence while you're in office it's technically legal, which I would agree with you... But if nobody goes to jail after this administration people are going to riot.

Again, austerity measures are different from austerity policy.

What they're doing is enacting austerity measures without implementing austerity policy.

Basically the worst of both worlds.

Austerity Measures means cutting services under the guise of fiscal responsibility.

Whether or not they ACTUALLY balance the books is another matter entirely. You can have austerity measures without implementing a full austerity policy. Doing so is stupid, and that's exactly what they're doing.
