I wonder who they paid to put the ads together. I bet the company has direct ties to members of the UCP. This feels like embezzlement.

That’s a good point. They’re spending our tax dollars on political advertising. I’m also wondering if its spending money outside provincial jurisdiction and whether that is legal.
I’m so happy they’re defunding schools and dismantling health care under the guise of cost savings so they can spent $7,000,000 on propaganda in other provinces.
Is there anything anyone can do about such irresponsible bullshit? We’re already orange in the cities so I feel pretty powerless.
Anyone keeping a list?
I wish I could upvote more since this is exactly what I was going to say. This is infuriating.
Everyone should start taking lots of sick days so that company owners get a taste of what happens when they vote in an incompetent government who reduces access to health care.
I wonder how much the conversation with “the woman who is responsible for controlling the airspace” cost.
The letter argued that Canada’s radio regulations were designed to address the problems created by its vast geography, its “linguistic duality” (English and French), and the fact that space on analog radio is limited, making decisions about what gets broadcast necessary.
Citation needed DiMA. Way to try framing the issue to look in your favour.
Instead of those “issues” we now have locked down apps and opaque algorithms that reduce user control.
To be fair I have found some good stuff through the recommendations, but I also don’t know how often they try to boost certain artists because of back room deals. Companies need regulations to keep them slightly honest.
As far as I know its federal.
But now she’s laid the groundwork to blame the federal government for something she doesn’t have the jurisdiction to deal with in the first place.
Exactly! I remember seeing a video of Jason Kenny throwing out some ridiculous number of jobs it’ll bring to Alberta, when Shaw was already an Alberta based company.
I’ve come to the conclusion that some inefficiencies are actually good for an economy. With multiple companies each has to have a support department and sales department and installation techs and engineers and… It’s not very efficient in that there’s a lot of redundancy, but it’s better for the economy.
Remember during the public consultation when all the politicians were talking about how the merger will create jobs, increase quality, and reduce prices? 🙄
That’s hardly a reason to get rid of it or replace it. Clearly people are benefitting from it and it’s evident if you look at your tax return. If anything, the fact that people don’t know about the return is a failure in marketing. So sure, there are maybe some improvements to make.
But really, no matter what carbon scheme you put in place, the cons will find a way to complain about it. That’s not a failure of the carbon tax. That’s just how the conservatives operate.
I’d love to see the logic of the cons trying to explain why a foreign agency is spending so much effort to promote their candidate. Clearly Putin is a true Canadian patriot.
Opt in to each lesson!!?? So intentionally making it overly complicated and a burden on both teachers and parents.
It seems if you’re wealthy enough your wealth gets to enjoy a nice racheting effect.
I was being a bit facetious in the wake of Rogers being allowed to buy Shaw.
Of course they should be breaking up the large companies when there’s not much competition, but I doubt they’ll do much of anything.
And then they’ll probably just have Air Canada buy WestJet so they can deliver better value or some shit. That seems to be the way competition goes now.
When I first read the headline, I thought it was maybe a good thing. Hurray for less military spending! I guess there’s maybe one policy I might agree with.
Then I read the article and found the little “woke” nugget you mentioned. Seriously, conservatives are just completely fucked… I know people in the military and it’s anything but woke! I’d like to see ANY of these fucking woke-saying assholes do a single day of basic training or handle even a few hours on an exercise!
Of course we all know that “warrior culture” in this context means kicking out anyone who’s not a “straight” white male. Because nothing says warrior like being toxicly insecure about ones sexuality.
I just wish it meant bringing in Klingon codes of honour.
They mean the lowest over the next 1000 years
