    2022 CPC Leadership Discussion: Et tu Redeux

    The CPC couldn't keep that COA secret. Someone would out the idea to propel their own self interests. Or this:

    2022 CPC Leadership Discussion: Et tu Redeux

    The CPC can't go all messiah seeking like the LPC of the 00s did, either. I think that would turn some of the people you describe (okay, me) off of them even more. Because this isn't something fixed by a leadership review/race/anointing. If they decide to fend off Max first then we'll get...

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    Whatever of that bullshit was on display was enough. More would be worse than what is already pretty fuckin bad. OPS is investigating hate crimes. That says enough to me.

    Freedom Convoy protests [Split from All things 2019-nCoV]

    Well the general public I interact with don't support them. In fact, the only support I see for them now is on this forum. Who's next?

    Canadian Federal Election 44 - Sep 2021

    I believe Lepreau has the site engineering done for a second rector. Been that way since construction, apparently. I used to spend a lot of time on their fire training ground and had a couple of decent tours of the place. I have never been in a cleaner and better cared for generating plant.

    Victoria is facing a public-safety crisis

    And a half gallon of gas is still cheaper than a movie ticket. I am sure there's a boredom motivated arsonist working in my area. I think it could be a firefighter, but that's based solely on how I feel having had conversations with other FFs about it.

    Victoria is facing a public-safety crisis

    Thanks for proving the point that I made. The hero syndrome you mentioned is just one of the subsets of firefighter arsonists.

    Victoria is facing a public-safety crisis

    More like "arson", and while the wanting to appear a hero may get some of them going, it's not a catch all.

    Victoria is facing a public-safety crisis

    I know a Bob story and the dude's name is Bob. The boys had a long day out of a larger downtown fire station. A call came in about midnight and things went as per until the driver asked where the Captain was. Senior guy went back to Bob's office to semi gently wake him and off they went.

    Public sector wages

    Federal government workers are not TEMS employees. Maybe that's the perspective you need to consider. It's comparing apples to bowling balls. If someone is sick, they are sick. You do not work when sick. That's why we have sick days. In my agency, not everyone is an absolute requirement to be...

    Public sector wages

    My corner of gov't: Someone on quarantine does not report to work. End. In the early days, 699 was granted pretty quick. I always asked managers if the person we were speaking about was absolutely critical to their operation. I rarely had to delve deeper into my thinking. I don't know how...
