Broad, multi-party support for the Liberal child care legislation may bode well for the program’s durability. And it can also be read as an implicit endorsement of the Trudeau government’s particular — and muscular —use of the federal spending power.
Some fear Bank of Canada Gov. Tiff Macklem is poised to raise rates again in July in a bid to drive inflation down to its target. ‘It’s two per cent or bust,’ says one economist.
It's not really a currency inflation. It's artificial inflation created by corporations, especially the grocery market and pharmacy industry, that have blown up their price only because they can and nothing can stop them. Add to this the cost of housing that's out of control and you get a dollar that's worthless within one's own country.
This new normal of near-constant wildfire smoke annoys me as much as the next person. But it serves as a reminder that we share one fragile atmosphere that we're collectively screwing up. Fruitless to waste all this energy pointing fingers like children when we should be joining hands to fix this. It's like nature's warning...
It's everyone's fault. Especially big corps, energy companies and some governments with less than good environmental policies that have been increasing greenhouse gas emissions for decades now. And the governments that have enabled them to do so.
On parle beaucoup de Facebook et Google parce qu’ils ont réagit publiquement, mais la loi s’applique à tous les moteurs de recherches, incluant Bing et DuckDuckGo… qu’est-ce qui va se passer?
Ouais, ben... ces compagnies peuvent aller se faire voir. Déjà, c'est pas à eux de contrôler le contenu qu'on voit. C'est une pente glissante qui pourrait, ou même qui a déjà, manipulé l'opinion des gens pour affecter la démocratie.
Mais là, si en plus ils privent nos médias journalistiques de revenu et de pouvoir effectuer leur travail pour nous tenir informer, c'est un méchant problème. On a besoin de ces médias pour rester bien informés pour faire des choix éclairés.
At first it was all about presenting data in an original looking way. In the end it was about pushing political ideas in your throat using a plain bar graph. It was not about sharing something interesting you found but about taking advantage of a captive audience.

Je ne suis pas d'accord avec l'argument de l'assimilation. C'est pas ça du tout le but. C'est pour leur permettre de mieux s'intégrer à la société en utilisant la langue commune de la nation afin de leur permettre de s'intégrer dans notre société au lieu d'avoir des barrières linguistiques lorsqu'il est temps d'avoir un emploi ou pour accéder à des services.
Je comprend très bien qu'ils veulent garder leur patrioine et je respecte ça. Penser le contraire serait hypocrite. Je veux que leur culture soit vivante et forte. On doit avoir des cours pour leurs langues d'origine afin que ça ne se perd pas. Mais, on pourrait au moins enseigner le français en langue seconde et l'exemption de l'examen ministériel ferait beaucoup de sens.
C'est Pierre Fitzgibbon qui est le ministre responsable de la ville de Montréal. Il veut s'assurer que ses p'tits amis puissent investir dans de le marché immobilier et en tirer un maximum de profit.
J'ai fait une publication ici à propos de Lemmy et Kbin. Les commentaires ne sont pas très favorables. Ou les gens ne comprennent pas c'est quoi. Ce qui m'étonne puisque KBin est pratquement pareil à Reddit...
We have a big baby boomer crowd who are getting increasingly old, have developed all kinds of health problems
Pair that with a healthcare system thats increasingly hard to access and you go a bunch of people who'd rather die than keep on living with pain when they can't get proper treatment due to lack of medical staff or ridiculously long waiting times.
It's the same kind of farce as when Justin walked alongside Greta Thunberg back in 2019. This was a walk to tell the government that we need to change our policies to take better care of our environment and reduce greenhouse gases. A walk to send HIM a message.
