Anyone have an idea on what policy changes have lead to capital becoming more productive than wages? This is a very troubling situation. Labour drives the economy, not capital.

Yeah, some kind of legislation here would be nice. At least the credit card companies aren't as entrenched as in the states.

That's one thing to add to the list to boycott the US. Stop using visa and mastercard and use debit instead.

And it is orders of magnitude cheaper for retailers than credit cards.

This is exactly what I was thinking. If the move to ban him is exclusively political it's a losing move.

The "all winners will have a plurality of votes" part is a critical part. Ranked choice will fundamentally change how the representative is regarded after elected. Too many are elected with 30 or 40% currently.

Hull as in the place in Gatineau?

I don't understand why we are pumping so much money into our dairy industry. Dairy is not a necessary or all that healthy part of the food supply.

We need to be training more doctors here. There is not a shortage of people that want to be doctors, there is a shortage of med school seats.

Ugh, actively funding right wing media with our tax dollars

Instead of importing cheap ones, we are going to extra subsidize expensive ones.

This sounds like the one on the Plateau that I can't quite place.

 

Any suggestions for paid one time purchase apps on the Google play store?

I haven't seen a thread on this in a while. I have been going with top day for a while, but it can be hit or miss. Other sorts don't seem to display as good in terms of balancing quality and quantity. What is your preferred sort for your main feed?

Edit: Realizing that the people who sort new commented before the hot/top/active people, haha

 

Recent CBC article citing statscan data.

 

I feel like the CPC is trying to import the American constant election news cycle to Canada.

 

The first thing that comes to mind is a big plastic bin filled with burnt burgers for 4 for a dollar.

Edit: I guess I was thinking more prepared/restaurant food.

 

First achievement, stomp a goomba in Mario bros.

Why is this sub just CBC news stories? Does a bot add them all? They are mostly empty with no comments. Makes for a strange feed.

Edit: I think I just need to figure out which way to sort my feed. Sorting by hot gives me almost all CBC.

Edit 2: CBC is great. I am commenting on the state of c/Canada, not the quality of CBC
