Several witnesses claim he was going back and forth over and over again while the whale was surfacing and spouting, so he definitely saw that there was a whale there. Being extremely close to the whale was 100% intentional, and going way too fast was 100% intentional.

Did he hit it on purpose? No, probably not. But was every action that led to the collision intentional and avoidable? Absolutely.

DFO should throw the book at this asshole. Maximum every available consequence.

Taiwan is an independent country and not a province of the PRC. Come at me, bros.

You’re right, the USA is a Russian thing.

Where can I sign up for this $33 per letter?

Time to build a new net.

This is the way. There are many cryptographic ways to make this possible without sharing any personal or usage information with any party. Too bad our legislators as a group are too fucking stupid to understand any tech more complicated than two cans with a string.

Immediately end all subsidies and preferential tax treatment of the fossil fuel sector.

Exactly.

We absolutely should. Our manufacturing helped win WWII, and can help Ukraine kick Putin’s ass.

Part of the deal should be Ukrainian troops training Canadian troops how to effectively use the drones. They are definitely a game changing piece of war hardware that we need with such a violent, unhinged enemy nation on our borders.

I’ve always been in favour of tiered consumption taxes. Basic neccessities of life aren’t taxed. Sorta nice stuff gets taxed a bit. Uber lux stuff and harmful stuff gets taxed all the fucking way.

Example: bus pass? Free. Subcompact cheap EV? 20% tax. Lambo? 300% tax.

Rich fuckers have way too many ways of getting out of paying income tax. Tax the stuff instead so that you can’t live like a rich person without paying the kind of taxes rich people should be paying.

China cares enough about us to tarrif our agricultural products as a weapon to open up our automotive market.

Yeah, there’s no way that monster actually wrote it.

That’s the spirit! It isn’t the bottom until it’s a smoking crater lined with the ashen remains of all the “”“self-made brilliant real estate investors”“”.

Even if we were replacing the US with China (we’re not, we’re diversifying), it’s not a bad replacement. Yes, China is awful in many ways. But they’re slowly getting better. The USA, on the other hand, is also awful in many ways and getting way worse incredibly quickly.
