Bamboo straws I like as well.

Like… I get that paper straws kind of suck. But my god. We’re a week away from the election and this is what he’s talking about. These people are so childish. It feels like he’s running for class president instead of PM.

    I’m not a Conservative and think that the conservative obsession with crime is overblown and borders on hysterical but it’s incorrect to say that Canadians are as safe as they were 10 years ago. Violent crime has been on the rise every year since 2014 after a sustained period of reduction. We’re now at roughly the same crime rate we were in 2002.

    Feelings are fine. But facts are facts.

    Apart from the fact that this obviously is against the charter - how does this work? Is it three separate convictions at different times? What if you’re charge with multiple serious offenses during a single crime?

    I am actively political and have been my entire life. I go to protests, I’ve campaigned for candidates, I’ve been a member of political parties, voted in leadership contests and do so at every level of government.

    I’ve never once attended a political rally. They just strike me as creepy and weird.

    I don't live in the city proper so I couldn't vote but it was awesome seeing so many people out there. Municipal politics are so important and I don't understand why more people don't get involved in them.

    I don’t know how you all feel about ChatGPT but I was curious if the robots would understand how silly this post was. It delivered.
