Good. He’s running a short term rental in a municipality where it isn’t permitted. Saanich says apply for a Bed and Breakfast license, if that’s the service you provide. That’s all that’s allowed.

At the time, that was the current head of a foreign, Democratic government!

Oh, I do.

You raise a good question: for those staff, in the department stores, in logistics, in HR, in technology, in management, in marketing, design, etc. — how likely are they to find new work? How many of those 9000 employees will face real hardship, and how many will find new work in the role they’re in now?

I don’t know the answers! Losing one’s job is always tough — financially, emotionally. I hope if their roles are cut they find good positions soon.

But for Hudson’s Bay, the business? Couldn’t care less

Hasn’t Hudson’s Bay previously liquidated?

I love a bit of heritage but HB is a business. They’ve failed to stay relevant in the economy and they’re faltering. Okay, bye? Am I supposed to feel bad that a corporation might disappear?

He also wants his face on currency. The man is a menace

“Ultimately, I think people should be allowed to do what they want with their property,” Rodgers said.

The judge, however, did not agree.

there are no sweeter words

He’s been in office for nearly a decade. Canadians are tired of him. Realistically, he hasn’t done anything worse than any other politician — you make promises, some you deliver on, some you don’t. Eventually, the “don’t”s pile up, and folks get tired

I’m glad to see Trudeau leaving the office, but he’s doing a hell of a send off.

Pixelfed.ca is way better. If you type pixeld.ca on mobile, autocorrect will try to change it to pixels.ca. Constantly. It’s very annoying. pixelfed gets suggested to pixel fed or pixelated, both which are a bit more obvious

Sounds like it would save a ton of money on a project that the city is already heavily invested in, while allowing a developer to stop pretending to half-play landlord. Why is the developer even the landlord now? This seems so weird

How is this election so close?? The NDP have been doing a fine job governing, why try to wreck it by voting conservative.

Alberta just kicked Coal years ahead of schedule. Yes, they’re also keeping the rest of the country using and producing oil, but clearly that province is working hard to reduce emissions.

Something is working
