I'm normally an NDP supporter as well. Campaigned for the NDP in the Ontario election. The federal NDP has lost the script. They need new leadership and badly. They've lost the union vote which should be impossible but here we are (yes, union heads might support the NDP but rank and file members don't)

Nope. I was well into negative on Reddit for the same.

QC has mountains. Some of the best Skiing and MTBing around. NB has fiber internet. Cheaper too. I recently had fiber installed at my cottage in central Ontario. So you don't have to be anywhere near Toronto. In fact, Toronto is one of the most expensive places for fiber. Smaller towns have actual competition.

Yup, that's it. Take up as much space as I can.

If the Bloor lanes get removed. I'm going to do that pool noodle thing for safe passing and take the lane every time.

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

To gather more votes from the majority of the electorate who drive into the city.

Bike lanes only serve those who live in Toronto and those people don't vote for these clowns anyways. Hell, even people who never drive where there are bike lanes will like this to give the middle finger to all the people who bike in the city.

Yeah, apparently paying for a service you use and enjoy is stupid or something. 🤷‍♂️

I just pay for YouTube premium family. We all get add free YouTube. Plus music which we all use. It's a great value and no hastle. More money goes to creators this way as well.

The CEO of the company that fired me consistently goes up on stage and talks about the transformative power of AI. The company does not use AI for shit.

Yup. Perfect is the enemy of good. If you wait for everything to be just right, nothing ever happens.

Something like 43% of all marriages in the US end in divorce. Take into account that many people who want to, can't due to economic or societal reasons so the number of unhappy marriages is well over half.

 

A new one in my cycling experience in Toronto. I got rear ended by a food delivery cyclist. They were too busy looking at their phone to notice the light was red. After hitting me, appologiesing, they continued on their way running the red light while looking at their phone.
