I simply pointed out that healthcare is already factored into the smoker's life choices. If we were concerned about more we would make selling and smoking cigarettes completely illegal.

Your system is entirely based on who can pay for it is it not?

I would do the smoker. He has paid his sin taxes for his choices. In theory those taxes cover his increased need for medical care (in theory).

A more accurate analogy is that one helicopter is available to rescue someone and there is a person in bounds and one out of bounds that require rescue. You rescue the one in bounds. When the helicopter is available again then you can go ahead and rescue the one out of bounds. The initial...

I remember at Whistler, if you skied out of bounds and had to be rescued you got a huge bill.

If it's Omacron, who cares if cases rise. In vaccinated people it is a minor cold/flu. Nothing to worry about. If it hits an unvaxed person, they made their choice. I would not cancel any surgeries. If there is nobody to take care of an unvaxed covid patient and they die, it is on them at this...

In the larger picture, if everybody in Canada stopped breathing and we turned off all our devices and emitted 0 carbon, we would save the world 1.5% of the world's carbon. Now if EVERYONE in the world was doing the same thing, I might be more willing to buy your argument that it is necessary...

If the government will give it to you, you would be a fool not to take it.

Time for a lockdown,

Yeah, the local vet really will give a damn ... unless of course you have a visa card.

Or just improve transit to make it an attractive alternative. When I worked and will work again downtown I do take transit. The commute is unpleasant and takes about 1.25 - 1.5 hours. If I drove, it would be about 35 minutes. For some people, regardless of the cost, that is worth the extra...

When there are no viable alternatives, it's just a tax grab. By viable alternatives, I mean affordable and commonly available alternatives to the same people who are buying 1995 Chevy cars since that is all they can afford. They ain't going to buy a Tesla even if it was ideal for their driving...

I am not sure how much little kids need to know about that either. I think grade 4 or 5 is young enough to cover all the bases.

Regardless of the reasons for voting left, the 2 current left leaning parties have no sense of fiscal responsibility so that trait cannot be high on the list of priorities of left leaning voters. So his statement to that regard was accurate. I don't have enough data to comment on the freeloading...

The more I think about this meme, the more it pisses me off. So we are not allowed to choose our own mate? People are either attracted or not attracted to someone. A lot of TransWomen are not too womanly so would likely not be attracted. However, if I was dating a woman who I was attracted to...

They are both in Toronto and Saskatoon and other places. Not sure how small your place is to warrant only 1.

Is there a law that both can't operate where you are?

Why would a Trans Woman want a straight man?

I like Dollar Tree.

I thought they already had stuff up to $5, They haven't been a dollar store for quite some time.
