I'm picturing something a bit less tidy than the CBGBs toilet.

He was claiming he had a helicopter that couldn't land due to FAA rules or some stupid crap

Seems unlikely.

There were plenty of private helicopters out there hauling emergency supplies in and people out as soon as the storm passed enough for them to land.

Unless musk's helicopter was trying to go it alone and getting in the way, instead of joining the coordinated effort, I'm gonna assume this is just another of his bullshit stories.

Anyone parroting those tired talking points who thinks Trump would be less of a problem for Gaza or the Palestinians needs to get their head examined.

Trump has already demonstrated that he's Netanyahu's bitch.

Having it be required to be a Bible with the Bill of Rights, with the First Amendment, written inside the Bible is just fucking.. I don't even know what the word is.

Corrupt?

Of those jobs added how many are full time?

And how many pay more than minimum wage (AKA I would pay you less if it wasn't illegal)?

Chromium isn't as problematic as Chrome.

we'd be better off as a country if we permanently stopped importing a lot of this shit and went back to making it outselves.

Of course.

But there's more short-term profits to be made for a select few if we close even more factories where they have to pay (more-or-less) a living wage and outsource to low wage countries.

because I didn't know the history at all

You and most of the people commenting on it.

Good on you for being willing to become more informed.

Fuck disposable vapes. Adds a ton of unnecessary waste.

That part I can get behind.

a reasonable amount of economic output

There's a vast difference between "reasonable " and "max_profits nothing else matters".

 

The trend isn't confined to the Bow Valley or even to Alberta. The federal government has temporarily eased limits on how many temporary foreign workers a business can hire in low-wage positions, and employers across Canada have increasingly made use of the program.
