I agree with what you're saying- in general. I posted it not because I think internal party debate on specific issues is unhealthy- quite the opposite. To me the story here is that in this specific case there seems to be the first sign that amongst the LPC caucus there is a material faction...

Relevant https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/liberal-climate-change-environment-caucus-1.7625657 I'd say his own party and failure to keep them in line presents a bigger threat than the opposition. If he's doing what needs to be done it limits PP's voice to chattering the wind trying to...

I have not, but age ratings of 14 and up (highschool) seem fair for the subject material. Maybe parental authorized access in grade 7-8. Knowledge vs normalizing comes down to parenting and having discussions- but not having books isn't going to spare teens being exposed to sexuality...

Got a transcript? As a rule I don't consume political information via AV media. Too slow as a rule, and increasingly too entertainment driven to drive traffic

Having grown up rurally, going to school in a town where the school library was co-sited and integrated with the public library- unless we're talking about having Hustler or similar on the shelves- the whole thing is a gross overreach. Make sign out history accessible to parents (or even...

Valid, but to me that speaks more to a loss of cultural identity rather than political. In broad strokes, I think there are large portions of the population whose version of "Canada" is a US Red state. There are portions whose Canada is a Euro social democracy (with widely diverging...

I think that part of the issue with these thematic type parties, blending of idealogies, etc is that Canada doesn't know what it is, what it wants to be. We've lost a lot of the common core of consensus, which really ratchets up the breadth of core philosophies that need to be covered by the...

Well shit, I wasn't planning on spending this month. Thank-you sir.

Not yet- if stick with the 7x57 I'll definitely be considering it down the line. I don't shoot enough to justify it from the volume/economics side of things- but I've been wondering about it as incorporating it as another part of the hobby (in place of collecting) that I can tinker with at home

Psht- ZA is a one gun situation, this challenge may or may not be IKN's way of gamifying and constraining his real life purchases to try and nip a sliiiight spending problem in the bud before it got momentum built.

Before the accident (my condolences- such a tragedy).. what were your thoughts on the 24? Were the barrels well regulated? I was looking hard at one of them (either 22LR or WMR over .410, or a Brno zh304 /307 (.22 Hornet or 7x57R over 12) and despite the fudd version of cool factor I just...

Depends on the program. For many the rule of thumb is 3 hours in class per course per week, with a ~1:1 class/study ratio. Picking up 20-30 hours of work on top is completely reasonable if the scheduling works- if that's the life you want/need. Get into the more intensive STEM fields with 5...

Numerical context for the issue StatsCan estimates of Overall non permanent work permit holders (not just TFW program) 1.463mm Q42024, down to 1.453mm Q2 2025 - down by 10k 2024 January to October - 162k new permits issued, 33k of them for the Agricultural stream (129k non Ag) January to June...
