It is disingenuous to only blame Biden. Though he has certainly contributed to the problem. Funny, because Trump contributed to the problem too, and I'm not sure which contributed more. With that said, the majority of the blame falls on the central banks who clearly missed the boat. Warning...

Yes, she was fairly terminated. If she wanted to do that, she should have cleared it with her employer first. The specifics of her job don't matter, so I won't delve into that there could be scheduling, safety or legal issues with what she did. She was hired to work a specific shift, and she...

Well....consider an alternate situation. I don't know your wife or what your relationship is like, but perhaps say she feels you've disconnected from her emotionally, in the same way she's disconnected from you physically. Would she be within her right to get emotionally attached to someone...

How would you direct this at your intended target? Only take it at specific times when you're going to be hanging out with your spouse? I guess its usefulness depends on whether this is just a feelgood drug that gives you a sort of high or if it initiates connections in your brain that more...

My current girlfriend was the "official" initiator in our relationship. I was friends with her and never expected more to come of it, but really enjoyed my time with her. We would go out as friends in a group, which eventually led to doing things together on our own, but never as a romantic...

There are some truly fucked up people in the world. There was a video I saw a couple weeks ago of some woman berating a guy on a bus. She was really going off on him and being an asshole, then she slapped him. His response was to beat the shit out of her. You can maybe understand how the...

I think that'll be important: for them to stress to patrons not to tip. Otherwise it just perpetuates a bad system, but at higher prices. Tipping should never have become "mandatory". It's supposed to be for exceptional service, but too many do-gooders jumped in and screwed the pooch...

That's sarcasm, right? The Right gets labelled extremist for protesting in a convoy, but a guy who self-admittedly was on his way to murder a right wing SC justice....can't call him an extremist because that's biased. lol

So weird. If someone mistook me for needing assistance, my first reaction would be embarrassment, not anger. The one and only time I gave money to a homeless person (I grew up in an area that simply didn't have any) was in my early 20s when visiting Toronto. Guy asked if I could spare $5...

I agree. However, there are two issues. One, a person who does not wish to help themselves will not be helped no matter how much assistance they receive. You can't cure mental illness with external factors alone. Some of it has to come from within. Two, where's the money coming from to...

That goes for 98% of politicians. Just look at Trudeau. There's another mass shooting in the States and he introduces legislation to freeze handgun sales in Canada, despite the fact gun homicides in Canada are only ~300/year. For reference, that's about 1/13th that of successful suicides...

That's fucked up. I mean, if you're going to be angry with anyone, wouldn't it be the one you were romantically involved with?

How unstable do you have to be to even threaten an innocent party like the girl her boyfriend was cheating on her with. Unless she was aware they were together. But even moreso, how unstable do you have to be to run someone over with a deadly weapon and ruin so many lives? His, hers, and both...

How about a 5-day event to bring attention to how government inaction has caused hundreds of thousands of young people to be priced out of home ownership? Or caused a massive spike in inflation that is causing even more people to slip into poverty? Seems a more important issue than the few...

Yes it is. But both our federal and provincial governments are still running deficits and, as such, lowering gas taxes doesn't actually get us anywhere beyond a surface level. "Feel good" policies aren't good policies if the net is a loss.

An important part of this question is missing. By what method are you asking if governments should control gas? 1) If they simply regulate the price of gas, we'll end up with shortages as it won't make sense to sell gasoline in Canada. Supply will simply go elsewhere. 2) If you're asking if...

I was out to lunch with a friend and we were discussing our most gruesome injuries. He once had a snowboard accident that caused his Tibia to fracture and protrude out of his skin. While I've personally had some breaks, any injury I had was vanilla by comparison. Except one, which I didn't...

I thought this as well, but even if their policies are similar, the general public don't have that perception of them yet. Many see the Liberals as more moderate than the NDP, and hence safer. If they were to merge, I believe it would push more voters towards the Conservatives.

I wouldn't read that much into it. While part of Ford's win is the fact that he focused on real issues that actually affect more than a fringe, his success in this election also had a lot to do with how unlikable the other candidates were. Del Duca even has the same problem that Andrew Scheer...

I haven't heard anyone say that.
