No shit? I used to used that in the 16-bit days. It's not really any kind of emacs, it just borrows keybindings and the buffer concept iirc.

Yep, and Al Gore solved global warming while I solved Y2K listening to Cake and swing music. I should have probably paid more attention to the racism and climate stuff, I think they might have fucked it up.

That you think this means the NDP is not getting their message out.

Liberals are at most centre, or centre-right. The conservatives (or at least, most of the various factions within) and the Liberals are more compatible than the Liberals and the leftist parties. Evidence of this can be found in Sask, where the Liberals and the PCs amalgamated so they could collectively defeat the NDP. This is the far more natural arrangement. But since the conservative alliance and the LPC are the two largest parties nationally, the Liberals (and the leftists) are forced to accept strange bedfellows.

The liberals will find working with the bloc a lot harder than the NDP

Please elaborate? I don't see this.

The Agenda: Is Monopoly Power Undermining the Canadian Food System?

19 Nov 2024

A new report from the Canadian Anti-Monopoly Project argues Canada's food system is being undermined by monopoly. And while grocery stores have become an easy target for consumer anger over the cost of food, this report says consolidation has occurred at all levels of the supply chain. The Agenda looks at the implications of the report.

It's happening, the worst mayor Toronto has ever had is removing three major recently completed bike lanes at tax payer expense. That's right, Ontario tax payers are footing the bill for Ford to meddle in Toronto municipal infrastructure. This is of course to distract us from failing healthcare and education while appealing to his mostly car centric base.

There is a protest happening Wed. 23rd of October, please come out if you can. https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/rally-ride-for-road-safety-tickets-1045417761667

 

The article asks the question, why does the perception exist that bike lanes cause congestion? I think it's absurd that it does not even mention the culture war and toxic masculinity, which cast cyclists as effete, virtue signalling, holier-than-thou, radical leftists, who culture warriors feel it is their duty as a Real Man to harass, discourage, and endanger.
