The above from post 212 in this thread. Not long ago, our practical, moderate approaches were considered exemplars that countries around the world tried to emulate. But as Postmedia’s Tristin Hopper discusses with Brian Lilley this week, in just a few years, Canada went from paragon to...

The Liberal Party of Canada is the latest major group to withdraw from the annual Ottawa Pride parade after organizers pledged solidarity with Palestinians in a statement earlier this month. Is the issue with Palestinians (?) or the blurry line to Hamas as a terrorist organization? The...

It will be an interesting goat rodeo to distract us from our own political failures up here, once Trump starts spending money (campaign level money) to see which way the ball bounces.

So, are railways an essential service? http://apple.news/AvyVSPudyQBiO8ffah-3Ywg (sorry about the CBC link, as I’m trying to find sources closer to the middle, but only found this CBC story) NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh says his party would oppose any government intervention in the ongoing labour...

I just got out of getting out of jury selection over the lunch hour earlier and replied in the parking lot while I was having a smoke. Drove to work and I’m catching up on what I missed this morning because of this jury selection… just out having a smoke, so I’m not gonna be researching a bunch...

I was assuming that Hamas (or a Hamas controlled entity) would be in control of what happens (like the selection process for eligible refugees for departure from Gaza) in Gaza…so Hamas or Hamas/Gaza Health Authority etc…supplies a list & other nations Choose from that? My assumption. Ok. Canada...

Months of on-off talks have circled the same issues, with Israel saying the war can only end with the destruction of Hamas as a military and political force and Hamas saying it will only accept a permanent, and not a temporary, ceasefire. There are disagreements over Israel's continued military...

Or the ones in control decide who leaves as a refugee & who doesn’t before they ever hit a foreign nation? Who’s in control of Gaza since about 2005?

Not from inside the fence line. Occasional stuff from the flower bed out front. Lawn, gnomes, and shit like that. Garden trowels maybe…a 1 gallon gas can I forgot behind the bushes out front when I mowed a couple weeks ago…But not from inside the fence line. If somebody can get into the yard...

The gates are locked front and back. The fences are just under 6’ tall chain link. We have four dogs & a cat (& the cat won’t leave the yard, because he’s much braver behind the fence line with dogs to back him up)…so from the time I turn the furnace off in the spring until I turn it back on in...

http://apple.news/Ar_aZlkPcTTuV-jA5ncJL6w Who decides whom is eligible to leave Gaza as a refugee & whom isn’t eligible to leave Gaza as a refugee…before they hit (for them) foreign soil to apply to be a refugee? I’m think’n it’s not UNRWA or the UN…at least not without a Hamas thumbs up or...

Was that what was agreed to July 2nd by someone? Who agreed to it? Who didn’t? What was proposed by Biden in June & what did Hamas agree to in July that I’m assuming Egypt/Qatar proposed on their own tangent? Why? I thought the beef was about Israel not agreeing to bugging out of: 1) The...

I’m going low rent while Lisa is sleeping away the heat…

I’m cheating tonight as opposed to firing up the beast… ….& a salad.

Control by unelected non-coalition coalition that’s definitely not a coalition-type coalition preventing a democratic vote until at least Oct 20th 2025 (& maybe October 27th, 2025 but that’s a different story), and not by force, doesn’t match the definition of dictator exactly…& “in theory”...

…& on that note, this weeks numbers are out: Liberals are up, Conservatives are down. By a theoretical five seats in this snapshot of time. Changes in PEI & Ontario. That is all.

Jebus… can you tell where the sprinkler stops? (Weekend & After-Hours Supervisor)

Grow like weeds too as soon as you hit that 30°C weather for the first time… only took a couple weeks to overgrow the doorway into my garage.

Now we can get it at the front of my truck with a little less frustration.😉

The mostly clover at this point is mowed… …& now the back of my garage, where my truck is parked, that faces east, is in the shade too…& yes it’s warm…but not as warm as where I’ve got a driver doing a rescue mission this weekend… (that’s just into Utah from Arizona)
