Maybe its a survey of members?

We wouldn’t have to pull the old bills and coins out of service. Just for a new design for new ones.

The land acknowledgement at my kid’s school is like:

With great gratitude and respect we acknowledge that we are learning and unlearning on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Salish and Tseil Watauth nations.

It’s really not a big deal.

I went to an event at the maritime museum last winter and the land acknowledgement there was awesome but I can understand why some people might not get it. It was a several minute talk about how the presence of the museum is an occupation and part of a campaign of legitimizing that occupation, and how we should be aware of how we were by our presence participating in that dispossession. The city literally removed indigenous homes to build the museum. Honestly we need more land acknowledgments that make people uncomfortable because what we did was pretty fucked up.

That’s something that should be done, but involves a lot of installation points.

Maybe giving industrial power users time of use billing would help shift demand a bit too, but it’s not actually that big a deal for BC because hydro power output is quite dynamic. A bigger issue is probably shifting rainfall trends lowering existing reservoirs.

Is it possible to use these power hogs to level demand so we can increase the power generated by Nuclear reactors (in the US portion of the grid) and decrease the utilization of gas turbines?

Isn’t it one of the most common rifles hunters use?

From Mary Poppins:

Though we adore them individually, we agree that as a group they’re rather stupid.

20 per month is 240 per year… But I doubt that changes your feelings.

Conflation is antisemitic, and blaming Canadian Jews for what Israel is doing is unacceptable. I think we should be asking Canada’s Jewish communities to use their special relationship(s) with Israel to apply maximum pressure to stop the genocide and famine.

I think you should write a letter to your MP first. The Israeli ambassador second. A local Israeli consular official third (if applicable). Your MLA/MPP fourth. Any organizations you’re part of that have a special relationship with Israel.

…Then talk to your Jewish friends to explain that you’ve reached out to the people most responsible for communicating with Israel, but if they feel they have a special relationship with Israel you’d really appreciate it if they’d use whatever influenece they have to make it clear that Canada’s Jewish community doesn’t support the genocide of Gaza.

CBC’s podcast Front Burner recently did an interview with a UNICEF worker that had just returned from Gaza, it’s heartbreaking.

I for one appreciate your satire of Quebecois’ xenophobia, but I think it went over the heads of many.

I think the by election turnout and results sent a pretty clear message that we expect better.

I would love to see a feasibility analysis for these in Vancouver, going from the end of the Broadway extension across pacific spirit park to UBC. I think that one main draw back of cable cars is limited surge capacity but I think that’s not too bad for a university campus.

The liberals are spending it? Or is it the government of Canada that’s spending it?

Bulova Accutron from the 60s. I also have a Heathkit oscilloscope which I think is of similar vintage.

100%. Maybe the tower thought it was an ultralight because no radio contact/transponder and conveyed that to the pilots.

If you can see that it is a 172 it’s like mistaking an F150 for a Model T pickup. Not a mistake that would happen when you can clearly see it.

Helping constituents navigate federal agencies and processes is a core function of Senator Hassan’s office.

…He’s not a constituent though he’s a greencard holder.

Canadians should mail letters, ring them up, fax them if they can, to let them know that any reasonable person would consider this goal post shifting a complete abdication of their responsibilities.

Glee?

Suspend the site’s permit until the organization shows that it takes its obligations seriously.

The violence is shocking and unacceptable. It’s totally possible islamophobia caused the situation to escalate to violence so dramatically. I hope it gets considered at trial.
