Homeowners are so fucking funny dude "Oh the homes around me are way too much! Oh, my home? Oh it's fine, maybe I even deserve more!"
Imagine being granted a “slice of heaven” by previous generations - and then deliberately refusing to do it for the next. Love thy neighbour includes future neighbours too.
Waterloo Region Record@therecord.com · 2mo agoResidents accused Waterloo city hall of trying to steal their slice of heaven, as they pushed back against a proposal to help 14 churches add six-storey apartment buildings to their properties on Monday. www.therecord.com/news/waterlo...

2023 corporate execs: “We need to be very strict and risk-averse when it comes to investments, hiring, and taking on new liabilities“ 2026 execs: “You have a robot that looks like it does work and doesn’t talk back? Here’s a blank cheque!”

@cambridge.ca How can we stop contractors from treating the multi use trail as parking? How can a disabled citizen get past these two trucks on Conestoga?
Nobody hates cities more than the people who get elected to run them
Matt Elliott@graphicmatt.com · 4mo agoNunziata gets staff to clarify that councillors can opt-out having vending in parks. They can. Nunziata says that's good, because she has issues in her parks already with "music going on, they're barbequing, there's food and garbage. This really concerns me that this could cause bigger problems."
My current hottest Parliamentary take: MPs are far too controlled by the party. Nobody likes this state of affairs. Rejecting the party and switching sides is the most individualist thing an MP can do and we shouldn’t treat it as betrayal - otherwise MPs truly are beholden to their party forever.

I am begging my fellow Canadians to take a break for a second from obsessing about American corruption to focus on our home grown versions. Ford is a corrupt crony goon who has done countless shady backroom deals. He wants to remove one of our most powerful tools to hold him accountable. Fuck that!

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 6mo agoTrump: "I got probably 85 million votes. They say 78 million, 79 million. They cheated in this election too. It was just too big to rig. They cheated like hell ... a Democrats will get 3, 4, 5, 6, and even 7 ballots, and then we're supposed to win. They're professional cheaters."

GM seems to think nobody wants affordable EVs - why are they concerned? Is it because they’ve genuinely forgotten how to compete?
The Wall Street Journal@wsj.com · 7mo agoExclusive: A recent deal by Canada to allow tens of thousands of inexpensive Chinese EVs into the country is a risk to North American auto manufacturing, GM’s CEO says.
rightwingers see people caring about others in their community and instead of finding that inspiring they think it’s some sort of grand conspiracy because they don’t understand what it means to care for others you don’t personally know
Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "
Zoning in theory: You can’t build housing next to the pollution source 😊 Zoning in reality: You can only build housing next to the pollution source, also daycares are illegal
With all the news around the water supply in @regionofwaterloo.bsky.social, has anyone in office commented on ending our limits on land use that saves water and maybe start dis-incentivizing wasteful land use? Is anyone asking staff why this wasn’t a priority during project approvals for decades?
Brick and mortar store: giving you “points” but actually creepily tracking every purchase you make Also the same store: sorry we can’t do returns or warranty stuff without that wee little paper receipt 👉👈
small-government conservatism is when a guy in a mask who won't show you his badge shoots you through the window of your car while you're driving away from him
