    5 Gun Napkin Challenge

    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

    5 Gun Napkin Challenge

    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.

    5 Gun Napkin Challenge

    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...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    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...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    I very deliberately havent commented either way on the content of his opinion. My post was directed at the patently partisan and dishonest way in which you framed it. You can either rant about ABC ghosts in the room or own that.

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    The point, is that by hanging your hat on his formal liberal mp status to emphasize "yesterdays Liberals arent today's Liberals" while omiting A- he's a paid lobbyist B -his political views have shifted majorly since his time as an MP and he's now pretty far right within the CPC spectrum You're...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    Why are you introducing him as "Former Liberal MP" Dan McTeague rather than "Current head of an O&G lobby org Dan McTeague?" Which is more relevant in defining the context, credibility, and latent bias in his 2025 opinions?

    Cost of housing in Canada

    But development fees at the "right" level are oft (and arguably correctly) cited as one of the key drivers of both high build costs and slow development. Using provincial funds to reduce development fees and try to stimulate development isnt an inherently bad idea. Tieing said funding to...

    Cost of housing in Canada

    Property taxes for existing, development fees for future. But in 2022 the Ontario government drastically reduced the amount of development fees that Municipalities could levy, committing to make up the difference- the funds in question.

    Finding the platform a weak end to a poorly executed campaign is not a controversial opinion in non-sycophantic CPC circles. This is tired ground Rick.

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    His platform was 30 pages long, about 1/3 of it pictures of him, the majority of of the text copy/paste of superficial blog announcements. A couple of the key fiscal policy blanks (TFSA top up and capital gains) were wasteful wealth transfers that had no place in an austerity budget. The overall...

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    He wasted the majority of the campaign on an arrogant gamble that he could convince the electorate that he was still running against Justin Trudeau, then released a last minute abomination of a "platform" that might as well have been written in crayon.

    Cost of housing in Canada

    That's because that's a gross mischaracterization of the issue. More accurately- You can't see the downside of denying access to the infrastructure funding instituted to replace the development fees that the province legislatively barred municipalities from levying because of factors outside of...

    Not when my post wasn't about attributing credit for mitigating said crisis but pointing out the reality that the masses are easier to agitate against a lightning rod when theyre already agitated.
