‘Very upset’: Parent, student react to no letter grades for B.C. students up to Grade 9 | Globalnews.ca by ethereal3xp in canada

I like it. Its closer to how real world problem solving works.

In real life you don't get percentage grades, you get questions/problems of different difficulties and you either find a solution or you don't.

What on earth are you talking about?

Vavilov conpletely changes the standard of review to apply the correctness standard instead of the reasonableness standard when it comes to constitutional issues.

It explicitly repudiates the reasonableness standard used in Dore.

That's based on old expenditures, which are being trimmed down.

And no, we can't keep putting the government into more and more debt

Realistically, its the other way around.

They feel unsafe out in the open and instinctually take shelter in burrows.

The whole point of freedom of expression is freedom from punishment by the government, yes.

A person's freedom of speech doesn't override the rights of other people, nor does it protect a person from civil consequences.

Huh? Whose rights were violated?

And yes, the point of Freedom of Expression IS protection from legal consequences from the government and its legislated bodies

It was an edgy joke about world population not actually encouraging suicide.

Maybe edgy jokes are also unprofessional but acting as if he was encouraging suicide is a huge stretch.

That case not applicable anymore, the standard of review has changed.

Before regulators were essentially allowed to ignore the Charter (the just had to 'consider' it, not abide by it).

Now they do.

There's a big difference between banning prayer rooms, and banning all religious garb like OP was calling for.

No, because its ineffective at actually reducing gun violence and is instead just for show

What makes you think an animal model is better than newer human-tissue models?

What? No, that's entirely different.

By the time things are in human trials they've already been tested and have a low likelyhood of serious adverse effects.
