The first case is for people who have no access to a charger at their home (primarily condo dwellers, since home owners can easily install them) This should be regulated by the government, every condo should be required to upgrade their parking to include a certain percentage of chargers. We don’t need more chargers at random places around the city like we have with gas stations, vehicles should always be charged wherever they happen to sit overnight.
Do ICE vehicles owners have a gas station at their house? Why are EV’s an issue for this but not ICE vehicles? As long as you’re near some form of fast charger, you don’t need a Level 2 charger at home, though it would be nice.
In late March, Poilievre had suggested during a campaign event that digital currencies could help Canadians “opt out of inflation” because they are not influenced by central banks.
That’s arguably one of his worst comments because he was finance critic under Harper, the master of economics.
Imagine if anyone took his advice then, they’d be broke.
Nothing will convince your family if they think PP is great. Similar to Trumpers, they’ll never admit their guy has any issues. There’s a YT video where they talk to Trumpers and they quote Trump but attribute the quote to Joe Biden. Once they give their opinion, which is of course crazy, the interviewer reveals it’s actually a quote from Trump and they do a 180 so fast your head spins. They don’t even see anything wrong with what’s said as long as Trump is saying it. PP fans are the same.
and of course… Pierre tries to spin this as saying he was kicked out as a result of calling the policy whacko, when he damn well knows that’s not why he was kicked out.
“Today the Liberal speaker censored me for describing Trudeau’s hard drug policy as wacko,” Poilievre wrote in a post on X.
Of course he posted on X.
Wish someone would put Danielle Smith in their crosshairs.
EDIT: For those downvoting, you clearly didn’t read that Danielle Smith asked to have Federal Minster Steven Guilbeault put in Tucker Carlson’s crosshairs.
This wasn’t really about free speech though, it was about actions and if you blockade a city, waiting for the PM to resign, you should be not allowed to do that. If the Ontario Police Force or Ottawa Police did their job at enforcing rules, the Feds wouldn’t have done anything.
What’s the limit on protesting? Can we all form a blockade around Pierre’s house and shout loudly until he quits as leader of the CPC?

Exactly. I watched a YT video about Vancouver’s issues with stormwater because they paved over land that would have absorbed it. Not sure what they’re going to do about it but it won’t be cheap.
In Calgary growth is out of control to the point new communities have major drainage issues because they didn’t let the ground settle so they have massive puddles of melted snow and the city has to pay to extend all services so far from the heart of the city.
Building houses is easy.
Building houses properly with future considerations is hard.
How wind chill got its start. The concept of wind chill was developed by two U.S. researchers, Paul Siple and Charles Passel, based on tests they carried out during the U.S. Antarctic Service Expedition from 1939 to 1941.
Spoke with 2 co-workers the other day about the Carbon Tax Refund. Both said it was bullshit and neither were receiving anything.
I said bullshit, check your ‘My CRA’ and it’ll be there.
Turns out one guy owes $6K so his carbon tax refund is paying that off and the other’s wife is collecting it as only 1 person per household can receive it.
Both clueless but both were very vocal about something they don’t understand. We’re truly fucked as a species.
