By bazillion lights you mean like 3 between the start of the Gardiner and the Jarvis on ramp. Whoop de do. I take the train past that area during rush hour both times in a day. The Gardiner is already jammed from the DVP then. It's not moving now. Throwing in 3 lights won't materially change...

You're forgetting that that vote was based on an omission of alternatives and their costs. New mayor, new mandate. Maybe she can use those strong mayor powers to get er done. That would be hilarious as Doug tries to undo his plans to let Tory do any fucking thing he thought of. Doug won't pay...

Don't rebuild it. It is only busy during rush hour when traffic doesn't move anyway. The rest of the time it's barely used and will cost way too much money to fix that Toronto doesn't have unles Dougie wants to pay for it. The only other way it should be kept is if it's tolled to make drivers...

Great result. This is already how it works in California. Merit is the best system to aim for. It's problems have largely been a failure to live by it (ie not hiring blacks who were actually as qualified) not from actually doing it. Whereas the problems with affirmative action quotas are from...

We had no inflation after 2008 when governments spent at historical records. The response to COVID was necessary and created supply shortages which combined with rising gas prices and the war in Ukraine raised inflation. We had similar supply shortages and inflation after WW2 when so,diets...

The annoying thing to me is the central banks blaming wages when those have lagged inflation. Seems to me the inflation has tracked the price of gas, which is a key input in all delivered goods including food, and owes more to supply shortages after COVID. The bank doesn't need to inflict damage...

This isn't anything like 1928. Commercial real estate is taking it on the chin but will adapt. The banks core business is solid. Canadian mortgages are one of the safest investments over time for everyone, especially the banks given their loan to value ratios and CMHC insurance. Whatever else...

The actual issue here is that what happens to specific criminals is outside the political world. Remember how everyone was upset because Trudeau involved himself in the SNC criminal matter? If you opposed that then you should oppose this. You don't want to live in a country where politicians...

Some people need a history lesson if they think this is as bad as it's ever been. Armies of homeless people roamed North America during the 1930s when unemployment was 25%. No one has read the Grapes of Wrath? Yes there are problems but on the other side poverty and unemployment are at their...

Liberal share of the vote INCREASED in the by elections from the previous elections there. Con support increased only at People's Party expense showing he's not attracting any Liberal voters. Cons are screwed

One wrinkle I would add to this is that I think the idea that men lose sexual interest in women as they age is overstated and even misconstrued. Beauty is an advantage for sure, but what most men value in a woman even more is sexual interest and fun. Younger women are hotter, but they are also...

That's an anecdote, not a statistic.

Very true. Best advice I ever received was "win her mind and her body will follow".

Not all f the money goes to the rebate. Who told you it did?

It is not. Again, by measurable statistics it is harder on men. Follow the science. It's not a valid answer to ask someone who has not been the other gender whether they want to be that gender. Everything about your gender has biased you in favour of preferring your gender. I enjoy male things...

I ts a standard medical procedure. You don't even need to be put asleep for it. Now pass a bullet or heavy equipment through your body a few times and get back to us about how easy it is

Carbon taxes aren't going to increase them. Can that be said about Alberta's policy of ever increasing production? That carbon tax money can be used to restore funding to our barely alive fire management services, which always seem to get cut when some Con needs to balance a budget to "save...

Childbirth happens a handful of times at most. The things that I mention that shorten lifespans for men are ongoing threats and more likely to happen to men. Many more women didn't even have to work until recently. Indeed, women entering the workforce in large numbers in the 70s coincides with...

The vote wasn't for military service, it was for owning property. Until the 1900s, most soldiers had no democratic vote in the policies that sent them to fight. Guess what their vote would be

All this post proves is you and facts don't get along. Numerous material facts have been advanced and your response is school yard insults. The adults are talking, when we want your opinion we'll give it to you.
