Oh thats pretty neat. I know Cosmos Cloud had some interesting functionality similar to that, with Oauth support for everything. Though I've not tried it.

Caroline Rogers "rang the alarm bell" on productivity, and interest rates will be higher going forward due to aging demographics, so debt will compound faster than it had been. We also had the second to last per capita GDP growth of the 38 country in the OECD since 2015, which was below inflation.

You can import a lot of people to spread the debt amongst more people, though you'll have Trudeau's polling numbers by the end due to severe shortages of basic necessities. Trump allowed Carney to win this last election, though if the tariffs stay in place our interest rates will also rise dramatically, and we need to spend less.

Its hard to compete with a party that offers programs using debt while also cutting taxes, because a high debt load can be kicked down the road and rolled over until it reaches a crisis.

A repeat of Trudeau Sr, which caused pain during Chretien who had to cut spending and raise taxes during a recession, which had his polls fall dramatically by the end.

Flat fees for breaking the law are only a tax on the poor. If money can buy you privilege then you live in an oligarchy.

In the most bureaucratic industry in Canada with the highest taxes?

If this is your idea of capitalism I'd say its a bit silly, people can't just build a 12 story apartment to service the demand, nimbys had it shut it down since the 1920s when they were redlining and not much has changed.

Its actually gotten far worse, there used to be loopholes like the Vancouver special, which were closed in the early 90s. Environmental and parking requirements were also much less.

Even provinces that did rezone very recently like BC are still littered with bureaucracy. This rezoning also should have been done a decade before we did 4% annual population growth, a logical order of operations that doesn't destroy the poor.

If you want systemic change to the economic system there's definitely an order of operations here to follow, wouldn't you agree?

If I want to redesign a roller coaster my first step shouldn't be to start removing the tracks while passengers are on it.

I agree. High demand from immigration; lack of supply due to greenbelt, slow permitting, property taxes being passed on as development taxes, and urban sprawl zoning.

Why nationalize only oil, why not manufacturing, mining, lumber, hydro, etc..?

I have a birth bath I don't ever replace the water in. Its like a shrub to me.
