Contact the CPP folks immediately on my behalf please. I and my family would really appreciate your assistance since you are so knowledgeable about our circumstances.

Or find me a Doctor that isn't a "complete ass" because to repeat myself I do not qualify. I am physically unable to work but I am also unable to feed my kids. Yet my government could care less and they are the ones responsible for my income. Doctors don't give a shit cause I can walk...sort of and my fellow citizens would prefer for me to hire a lawyer than help me fight for a better life for my family.

I should not have to fight for respect or dignity simply because I am cripple through no fault of my own.

This is not even mentionioning what folks with mental health problems do. Where do they fit in this equation?

We need less racists and bigots too.

Yes, but Ontario is the center of the universe. Didn't you know?

Know what's not a "good look", I and many others like me don't qualify for the disability tax credit because we don't need constant care, so we live well below poverty. Singles, those with families, old, young doesn't matter. This means we also don't qualify for the disability tax benefit that our government is touting as a saving grace for us cripples. No one cares. Not our fellow citizens, politicians, doctors. No one.

But we can MAID as soon as we can fill out the fucking paperwork.

Disabled people in Canada are living in a fascist state that would prefer them dead and no one cares to help change that.

-Killed all American based social media (personal and small business)

-gave up travel after 911. Volunteered as a medic at WTC. Got treated like shit when we questioned the whole WMD warmongering. Not been back since.

-cancelled Amazon immediately. Left Google and Microsoft behind. Working on degooglinv my phone as well. I'm new to all this type of techy stuff and I'm old so it's taking a bit longer than others.

-taught as many as I can the ways of torrenting and free streaming. I've been purchasing from the little guy and stealing from the big guy for decades as a teen of the 90's.

-completely stopped purchasing all food and any other goods we could from America and produced solely by American companies including those with presence in Canada (sorry fellow Canadians employed by these asshats but it's got to happen)

-switched pet food brands to a Canadian company. Working on animal feed for our homestead. No more veggie seeds from there either.

-no fast food treats, chain restaurants, hotels, online booking companies, etc from murican companies.

-if we can't find it from somewhere other than 'murica we don't need it.

-no shipping from my small business to US customers anymore. I'm not interested in their business until they depose their dictator.

-we are also teaching our young kids to avoid products and services from 'murica. We openly speak to them about what is happening there and how it is affecting us socially, politically and morally in Canada. We will do our best to make this boycott generational.

-our kids have given up lots of things on their own because of our actions as parents. No dictators here. They choose for themselves and I am proud to say even at 10 and 12 they have made exceptional choices.

You can just use the juice to then make jelly which is just three more steps. Add sugar. Boil. Add pectin.

It does help to have some experience and the equipment at hand however.

Send in the clowns

Actually Mr. PM I could give a rats ass. Let him make it 1000% if it gets us untethered faster.

 

Red currant jelly day. We had an abundance this year. The branches were touching the ground. I made two full batches and have enough juice for four more plus tonight's smoothies.

Yay currants.

I hope so. We need to stand up to these assholes.

Filed a god damn grievance! Fuck that. Medics should be walking off the job regardless of the union as well. They all hold so much power and they don't even realize. CUPE is always in the pocket of the employer in my experience being a member. It's only wishful thinking that they'd stand up.

 

Former Paramedic here. CUPE needs to pull all its medics off the job for this. That's what unions should be doing right now. Fuck these Zionists.

Those councillors and council need to be reprimanded as well for openly supporting genocide.

And dump the pretense for supporting American copyright law.

That's not self control. That's just not being a complete asshole in every single way. As someone who worked in a huge hockey city in arenas I can tell you hockey is a blight on this country that will eventually enable us to be become just like 'murica. We've already adopted the sport celebrity culture fully and people will literally fight you over hockey.

I've had people punch me and spit on me, I've had to call the cops numerous times over threats of physical violence against me or someone else, had my life and vehicle threatened with damage, I've had a player jump over the boards and try fight me because I asked him to leave the ice surface after his allotted time was up. I had a guy even try pull me off the ice resurfacer because he was pissed he couldn't skate longer.

They're fucking worse than Neanderthals and they are taught that every day, year round from the time they can strap blades on their feet and praised for it. They call it "the Canadian game". We give them millions of dollars to.play a fucking kids game and never ever ask them to grow up. I've seen junior players who's dad's still tie their fucking skates.

 

Hurts your ears most days. Wouldn't change it for the world.
