Yes we are going to waste this opportunity (independent of who we elect)! Provincial governments are in charge of funding universities and have been consistently decreasing funding for decades and simultaneously cutting off any source of revenue. Most universities in Canada are struggling financially and will have a very hard time hiring anyone in the short term. There will be some counter examples like the ones at U of T, but this will not be the norm.

Except the NDP are unlikely to pick up many Liberal seats and will go from holding the balance of power to having no power. I don’t follow this logic.
TNG is also my favourite theme, but my favourite scene with music is the flute song Picard plays for his son’s birth in “The Inner Light” (especially the reprise at the end with the real flute from the probe).
Nice tattoo!! That episode is such a great ending to such a great series.
“Five card stud, nothing wild and… the sky’s the limit.”
With 23 of 23 samples, that’s a 78-100% 99% confidence interval (using an adjusted Wald method, which is good for small samples), so the sample size isn’t really an issue. The representativeness of the sample might be a concern, but for whatever the sample generalizes to, this is a high rate.
I think that kind of system is fine too.
While I agree that top tax brackets could use more granularity, it’s also important to note that it’s only income above that amount that gets taxed more. I’m personally okay with anything above that being taxed a lot and at the same (high) rate.
I don’t think it’s helpful to have called the take stupid, because parents have a role and have a responsibility to be vigilant, but I think blaming ONLY the parents is also too extreme. It’s more like smoking. Kids are resourceful and can get access from friends, trick their parents (especially if they’re not tech savvy) with things like multiple accounts, etc. A lot of the blame lies in the tech companies and there’s a need for better regulation. We have age limits for smoking, drinking, driving, etc. and don’t expect only parents to be involved in that protection. The same should be true for phones/social media.
