A bit of Trumpian echoes here.

As an essential worker, I can agree with that. When we went on strike a few years ago, we always have a list of 'essential' vs. non. Funny how we always are working even then though, because we never have enough staff to be considered 'non-essential', or at least, not needed to cover shifts.

Well, you're in luck then. The study was from two people at the U of C. Their paper is out there for a read and here, give you even help with it: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=5024885 And then there's Sylvain Charlebois paper (...

Weird, I was able to access it. Basically? Study finds that the Carbon Tax added 0.5% to food prices. That's out of the 26% rise in prices in the past five years. "As a new paper from University of Calgary economists Trevor Tombe and Jennifer Winter shows, Canada’s carbon tax has added a grand...

Or, you know, just keep using CP as they're doing now to help with the package flows? Sure. Is it? Or is it the workers got tired of the bullshit and after, again, 20ish years of getting nothing, striking in November - not Christmas - was their last option? That it's carrying on so long is...

Absolutely they're top heavy. That doesn't mean that what the workers do should be diminished or ignored. I mean considering now the backlog that UPS and other carriers are having, I'd say that shows just how valuable CP is with mail and that, again, the WORKERS deserve the raise.

They've been how many years without a proper, keep up with the times, raise? Yes the timing is horrible, but that's how the dice rolled this time. They deserve what they're asking for, considering the shit they put up with.

Guess those Jewish Canadians (especially Rabbi David Mivasair (https://thewalrus.ca/how-a-canadian-rabbi-became-a-lifeline-for-gaza-residents/ https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/hamilton/hamilton-david-mivasair-arrested-capitol-hill-1.7001386 ) aren't really Jewish and are terrorist, Hamas...

Trump doesn't know how to joke, that's the problem. There's a legit 50-50 chance he means this.

No. His own DOJ went after Hunter because he broke the law. And Biden was good with it. Things that happened during this, and after it, are what turned it into politics and he realized that now things were no longer lawful or anything close to being that. You know, like the House Committee on...

I knew one of the local cultists was gonna post this. Nevermind that it's all AI bullshit - I mean, where he's standing isn't even anywhere NEAR Canada... But no. Abso-fucking-lutely not. He can idolize Putin as much as he wants but Canada isn't Ukraine.

Que Blackie throwing a fit.

I went to get the full video to watch and yes, he did cut out the bullshit PP said after halfway through the 'speech' because it had nothing to do with the point he was making, which was that he was doing NOTHING to help the situation what so ever, and the clip he played proved it. 1. That it...

If it was someone else coming in after Biden, I think people would shrug him off as a 'meh' president. But Trump? People may just miss him, yes.
