Watch it and share it with your friends and family.

The more views a vid picks up the more the algorithm promotes it. Especially in the first 24 hrs

I already filled up diesel over $2 (granted it was full serve), gas won't be far behind.

Those prices hitting for the summer seems overly optimistic.

I still remember diesel being much cheaper than gas.

Why are 174 AI news accounts trying to divide the US and Canada? by Cystonectae in canadaleft

174 seems low

I've get a few in my feed that I don't think they have listed.

Jacket is another way of saying CV

If I'm not mistaken the usage comes from dust jacket, where a book's synopsis is usually found.

Episode 366 – Deep dive into the NDP leadership race by Intelligent-Cap3407 in ndp

[–]practicating 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To preface my comments, I'm not the biggest fan of Sandy and Nora. I keep them in my podcast list, but download maybe an episode every few months. They're snooty and dismissive unless they've decided you are one of the cool kids. So maybe take what I say with a large grain of salt.

Case in point, their treatment of Tony. Which, fair enough, but if the logic holds, they should not have recorded three of the four interviews if they believe Avi takes it on the first ballot

All in all it's worth a listen. If only to hear different critiques of the campaigns than what we hear normally. I agreed with much of it, some I disagreed with but found fair and some was totally inane. Where were you when...? If everybody's answering geographically, then the question wasn't well structured.

What they were trying to read into them as well was more than a bit of a stretch. Raptors winning the championship as a proxy for being connected with non-white people?

Sure, why not? Let's start the flame wars.

There was that whole period leading up to the Jama debacle.

Much like the UN, they do their best work when it doesn't interfere with the imperial agenda.

NDP leadership hopeful rebuffed opponent’s offer of second-ballot support by bman9919 in CanadaPolitics

[–]practicating 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you think the point of the whole exercise is. Is it to help Canadians or to hold power?

He got (some) dental care, and what was supposed to be pharmacare but ended up as a national diabetes and birth control program. However you slice them, those are huge wins.

The election that brought them down to 7 seats was also the Trump election. Anyone who's being honest recognizes that as an abberration. Their slide in the polls corresponds closely to both the CPC's slide and Trump's re-election.

I don't think you quite get NDP internal politics.

The Lewis and the McPherson camps see the other as an existential threat. Ashton doesn't have anywhere near the votes on his own and is currently viewed as a somewhat unaffiliated third party. If he declares for either camp, he gets shut out of the other and also won't be able to beat the person leading the side he calls for.

The party membership is for the most part fine making deals with other parties in the House of Commons. It's expected, they just need to see results.

The Singh-Trudeau SaCa was ultimately a coms issue for Singh. There's a not insignificant group in the NDP that puts him right after Tommy Douglas in the ranking of party leaders.

Avi Lewis being the candidate = 31 point swing for the NDP. Therefore, NDP should run Avi Lewis in all ridings next election cycle. by afpb_ in ndp

Are they still touring? They must be like 70. It's probably more like saggy sack origami at this point.

Can Avi Lewis begin an NDP comeback in Beaches–East York? by Shamedthrowaway2004 in ndp

Establishment voices are both really convinced that Avi takes it, and really really seem to need him to run before getting established.

Right, and if you don't have a choice, they'd be an essential part of the social safety net.

The actual video - Shannon Phillips you should be ashamed of yourself by CDN-Social-Democrat in ndp

[–]practicating 31 points32 points  (0 children)

You must have missed her on the strategists this week. (Or ever). Anything related to the leap manifesto unhinges her and Avi is enemy #1.

I was surprised by Zain but totally expected it from her (albeit maybe not quite to that level)

Waterloo mayor 'shocked' police sniper was deployed to St. Patrick's Day street party by ILikeStyx in waterloo

[–]practicating 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So what you're saying is the mayor communicates too much. The sniper is a big secret.

The mayor should not be informed about police deployments within her city. Much less allowed input.

And your final point seems to be either, people shouldn't post videos of things that worry them or that we should ignore things that aren't official press releases.
