As a corollary to that, just make sure you have those documents from the medical condition and that your doctor said you need a different style of mask. The Human Rights Commission already said they'll need proof to weed out regular ol' anti-maskers.

Canada encourages lack of culture with its multiculturalism doctrines. People come from other countries, and Canadian culture for them is whatever their culture WAS.

The paid leave is a corollary to "innocent until proven guilty." So they don't want him working because that would look like he's getting off scot free, and they can't fire him because that's a presumption of guilt. So until things are proven, he gets suspended with pay.

But to keep the game going for 16 years? That's... oddly noble.

One location used iced coffee instead of cold brew.

One location used milk instead of cream?

Staff need to be properly trained on how to make a cold brew. About half the time it is made incorrectly :(

Tim Horton's main problem, on its face, isn't substandard quality of product. Their stuff isn't bad. Their problem is that they'll hand franchises to any dumb corner-cutting fuck who has the money to buy one, and those dumb corner-cutting fucks will hire even dumber staff, and not train them (you mean pay you to teach you how to do your job? Fuck that. Learn on the job!) The same thing happened with their doughnuts. Franchisees used cheap shitty ingredients to the point that people thought Tim's doughnuts sucked, so they had to bake them in one location and ship them out frozen to the franchises. And here we are again with their coffee.

If Tim's ever learned to have standards when it came to franchisees, people would rapidly learn to love them again.

"Those higher prices on everything because we printed a shit ton of money to give out to people for stimulus? That's an overheating economy!"

to defend media freedom and push back against disinformation.

This tells you everything right here. Defend government-funded media freedom, and censor everything else.

Front and center attention will probably never happen. Side mention attention will start happening if they can get an MP. Look at how long it took the Green Party to get any attention and/or get in the debates.

It's even worse for food. I have a recipe for key lime pie that called for "1 14oz can" of condensed milk. Go to the grocery store? The cans are 10.5oz. So now my choices are underfilling my pies, making a smaller pie (and experimenting with crust sizes to find out what fits,) buying two cans and being saddled with condensed milk I'm not going to use, or buying FOUR cans and making three pies... or of course not making that particular pie at all, but sometimes you just want a good key lime pie.

If you're washing your hands to the point where your skin is cracked and bleeding? Bacteria fucking LOVE open sores. You're doing more harm than good.

I saw this press conference myself and found it quite odd. When I heard about vaccine resistant variants, all I could think of was, "Do vaccine resistant variants exist already? If so, what's the point of the vaccines? If not, what the fuck is Ford even talking about?"

I'm sure Trudeau is chomping at the bit to call a federal election. He's got a minority government right now, even though with the NDP it might as well be a majority. But he's all set to pick up way more seats.

It would be, but what would people DO with that parity? Go cross-border shopping? Not likely. This time around we'd just watch as our retailers continue to justify why prices are still higher in Canada. Remember the book fiasco? At first they said "It'll take a while for prices to match, because of vague book publishing reasons and the possibility the dollar will go back down." After a few months of that, they said "Oh, Canadians read more, so there's a higher demand for books. That's why they cost more." And eventually, they started printing Canadian covers that didn't include the American prices so you wouldn't know just how badly you were being gouged.

This is an American article, so we Canadians should be reading it the other way around. Our 81-cent dollar is "the highest it's been in more than three years." Even though eight years ago our dollar was at par, this article seems to just ignore that and sound the alarm bells for the States.

You don't even have to go that far to call the vaccine euthanasia. We have MAID already and people are begging the courts to make it easier and easier to get it.

O Canada, Our Father if it's a Catholic school, acknowledgement of the land.

This is a cool way of saying he more than doubled the debt. And of course, while doubling the debt (especially one this size) is horrible, he's not the first PM to do so.
