...and if Carney wins, he'll be PM but not an MP. The last time the PM was not a MP, it was John Turner. That was after Justin's father Pierre resigned. History is repeating.

The LPC lost badly under Turner in the next election - Cross your fingers.

CANDU reactors don't make Pu out of the natural U we use as we break down to daughter elements. That being said, two things:

  • We have lots of U. Enrichment is new to us, but we would be technically capable of starting. U bombs are possible, but not preferred for various reasons.
  • If India can get Pu from a CIRUS (which was basically a NRX), we could develop nuclear weapon fuel here.

Poland is thinking of that.

They aren't saying 'no bikes,' they are saying 'no bike lanes.' It's predicated on the mistaken impression that the bike lanes reduce the number of car lanes, and thus would slow car traffic. They would like to up the danger to bikers by having them 'take the lane' and force them to bike in the car lane. In addition to the danger to biker, it actually slows driving traffic as bikes are now in car lanes of traffic, and if any biker does get hurt, which is bound to go up, the accidents will slow traffic as well.

I should stop saying 'bike lane' and 'car lane' I suppose - the Government of Ontario has a preference that it's just a lane for everything.

I mean, wouldn't the safest place to continue doing concerts would be Australia, where they actually have pretty stringent gun laws?

Biden: End the tipped minimum wage.

Tipping also disappears.

Don't forget the words of our leader of His Majesties Loyal Opposition, and possible future PM: "My view is that we need to engender the values of hard work and independence and self reliance. That's the solution in the long run -- more money will not solve it."

He's apologized since, but you as they say, you understand how someone truly feels the first time they say something, unfiltered.
