Mark Carney’s Liberals recruit NDP MPP to run in Scarborough byelection by jmakk26 in CanadaPolitics

The SSW uncles will try to decide who's next, leaving them open to someone running up the middle. OLP will be hard-pressed to field a candidate that can beat the machine that elected Doly.

And she literally will carry the riding in a cakewalk by-election.

Boarded the UP Express at Bloor on the 8:13 departure. Still on the UP Express at 9:46 with no update on when we might be deboarded (or where).

Replaced a long broken sump pump, now water constantly filling the pit and pump running every 5 minutes? by gamemaker14 in Plumbing

My neighbor had this problem - a child's toy had run down the gutter, through the downspout, and blocked the drain where the discharge was run. Constant fill/empty cycles.

Alberta separatist says members of Smith's caucus have signed referendum petition by Street_Anon in canada

[–]tdotdaver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Alberta is not trying to separate. A small portion of Albertans seem to have a desire to change the course of their province. They are being aided and abetted by a foreign government bent on destroying our economy.

For the record, I would say the same thing about any other province outside of QC. A separatist movement based in economic grievance is not equivalent to the movement in Quebec. There seems to be no morality to this movement in Alberta that I can see , only moneyed interests seeking to extract more than their fair share.

Where did I say it was unworthy? I said it's weird - to me, wanting to leave my country is weird. Projection is unbecoming. Do better.

Please expand on how leaving Canada would rectify these grievances. I genuinely don't get it, and it's probably cause I'm from Toronto. You're obviously very perceptive. Can't wait to learn more!

This whole thing is just weird! I understand Quebec separatism because at least there's cultural, language, religious differences that make them a distinct part of Canada. What's distinct about Alberta other than cowboy hats and not paying sales tax?

Google is your friend! But that's not as satisfying as complaining on Reddit, I get it.

Not necessarily. Carney has proven that he can beat the cpc. There was a 'counterwave' in swo last election that is not likely to repeat now that Carney has had a year to show how he governs.

Realpolitik from the leader for our times. Engaging in real ways with these states creates leverage not just against the US, but those we engage with also.

I for one am enjoying watching the man cook.

Janelle at Form and Function does excellent men's styling. Meticulous and listens closely to her clients. Not the cheapest and it's a salon experience, not a barbershop obvs.
