    Trump administration 2024-2028

    Accurate or not, we could only hope that Trump walks away into the wilderness.

    Fourth Emergency Service

    That's what I meant. 'NYPD Blue', et al.

    Fourth Emergency Service

    The way wait times are at some hospitals now, the partner could probably do an engine rebuild. I notice a lot of Ontario coppers are calling ambulances 'buses' - probably picked up from US TV shows. Plain language radio protocol is a good thing but it can't start sounding like social media chat.

    2026 US-Denmark Tensions/End of NATO

    To many, The Flintstones was a documentary.

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    I'm trying to figure out why we would want to pay a billion dollars to be part of his ego tour in the first place.

    2026 US-Denmark Tensions/End of NATO

    The old maxim on leadership: 'You can delegate authority, but not responsibility'. His hand-picked appointees, under his watch, have: summarily executed mariners on the high seas (how quickly we forgot about those) abducted the head of a sovereign nation arrested and detained US citizens on...

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    Canada's not grateful. Denmark's not grateful. Europe's not grateful. What an awful, uncaring world he occupies.

    2026 US-Denmark Tensions/End of NATO

    I note that the 'framework agreement' was with NATO, not Denmark/Greenland.

    2026 US-Denmark Tensions/End of NATO

    I was watching him (droning on about whatever he was droning on about) on the CTV morning show. They had to cut away since the show was coming to an end, so they cut to a Bell mental wellness commercial, which I thought was fitting.

    CAN-USA Tariff Strife (split from various pol threads)

    That has to hurt some folks in Alberta who thought they had a fellow traveller in Saskatchewan.

    All Things AB Separatism (split fm Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???)

    I suspect that if you were able to poll those in favour of separatism, a lot would envision, or perhaps simply assume, some kind of 'sovereignty-association'; free cross-border travel, perhaps retained citizenship, continued trade relationship, etc., etc.

    Liberal Minority Government 2025 - ???

    I need a pocket chart or something to track when Trump should be taken at his word and when he is just 'being Trump'. It seems to be a moving target.

    Emergency Response Times

    Almost correct. A school bus must stop at all railway crossings. A bus (not being a school bus) must stop at all 'unprotected' railway crossings. If a transit bus stops at all crossings (and most do), it is matter of company or municipal policy. Relevant HTA sections: Buses required to stop...

    A Deeply Fractured US

    This Administration did say early on that habeas corpus was optional.

    Trump administration 2024-2028

    And he gets to wreck somebody else's sandbox, not that he really cares, but it solves those nasty environmental types.

    Police Folk Allegedly Behaving Badly

    Not necessarily. The OPP is really big on feeding local (mostly online these days) media including social media. The larger the media market, like around cities, maybe not so much. It is often a cut-and-paste from the report or Crown Brief summary. You can often tell from the phraseology -...

    Sure they can. Items often become illegal to possess after they emerge on the market. "Pepper spray" was prohibited for human self defence in 1998, long after it appeared on the market. Expropriation only applies to real property (land and fixed assets) in Canada.

    A Deeply Fractured US

    I agree. It would be like our success in eliminating FPTP or reining in the centralization of power in the PMO. Everybody talks a good line while in opposition or during an election.
