I’ve never wanted the Digital Services Tax more than right now, lol.

This is the laziest troll of a take, lol. We are building high speed rail. We stopped our EV rebate (for now). Immigrants and China have nothing to do with the topic or the article.

We have plenty of carbon and methane emissions from oil and gas usage, which you could make an actual coherent argument out of, but instead you just wrote complete gibberish and contributed nothing to Lemmy.

If the populace of voters can’t remember anything that happened just a couple years ago, I don’t think we can expect them to be forward thinking either. There’s little incentive for politicians to make the hard, unpopular, long-term decisions that we need to battle climate change and other challenges.

I found another cereal - Made Good has this “crispy light granola cocoa crunch” that’s usually in the organic section, by the granola, but it’s definitely just straight up cereal. It’s weirdly not on their website either. I’ve tried a few flavours and they’re fine. If you go into it expecting granola, you’re going to be disappointed, so think of them more like a cross between rice krispies and granola…

I tried the chocolate banana flavour and it’s OK too. The banana bits are really more like marshmallows, so again, manage your expectations lol.

As a bonus, I also discovered Jordan’s granola is made in the UK by a UK company, so that’s another alternative if you’re just trying to avoid US products.

The graph of news headlines about the real estate market is the same graph lol. They recycle the same narrative every year.

apology accepted

It’s not though, it’s owned by NordStar Capital.

How come half the time you write in broken English, and the other half with sweeping paragraphs of perfect English? But it always ends with Russian propaganda like the west is forcing Russia to defend itself by invading their peaceful neighbour, Ukraine. (I guess the irony of saying that in this particular thread is lost on you…)

Alright that’s a fair take

Overly simplistic take. We don’t deal with America as a single entity at all. Look at our tariff responses and the way we target specific Republican states.

I’m not saying you need to go out and spend all your money in the US, but let’s not catastrophise here or play it up more than it is. I don’t think American voters genuinely understood or expected most of what they’re getting right now (even if they deserve it).

That the US hates Canada hasn’t changed.

This is just total nonsense, like most of the garbage that you post here. Talk to Americans - they’re embarrassed by how their government is treating Canada. We’re close allies and our biggest trading partners. There is no animosity between our peoples and the only ones who say there is are our enemies trying to seed division.

(This guy runs a Russian propaganda sub on Lemmy.ca, check his history.)

Your comment fits into your low effort Russian astroturing campaign where everybody in the west is bad and hates each other and Russia is good and should be allowed to invade anyone they want. Fuck off.

the dude runs a russian propaganda sub on lemmy.ca, just ignore him

I feel like Loblaws and the other stores they run always play stupid games with prices. They didn’t really show that this was anything different than say, the same month a year ago. The article and methodology just feels kinda shoddy and empty. “We did a shit analysis and came up with weird results, now here’s some experts saying random things.”

Yikes, OK, thanks for sharing that

Are we talking about getting a nastygram because you were torrenting? Because Bittorrent just broadcast’s your IP to everyone in the swarm. Your ISP doesn’t have anything to do with that. Your ISP does have an obligation in Canada to forward the nastygram to you from the copyright owner’s lawyer though. Like you said though, I’m not sure that this actually still happens anymore. (how sure are you that it was just because you “visited a website”, which a DNS lookup isn’t even proof of?)

Your DNS provider used to just be your ISP, but unfortunately Chrome and Firefox’s stupid DoH-by-default means an American company is your DNS provider, which is the worst possible option. (Chrome default’s to Google’s DNS servers - the company that makes money by tracking and selling ads. Firefox default’s to Cloudflare, which is the NSA’s dream.)

Those defaults make DoH worse for Canadians, so I can see an argument for using CIRA + DoH being better than the default.

However, in Canada, your ISP won’t tip off the authorities for you pirating anything. That’s complete FUD. If you’re going to make an argument that CIRA is more trustworthy than my ISP, you have to do better than that.

I will say that the privacy policy and terms of use for CIRA’s Canadian Shield DNS seem to be reasonable with regards to privacy. The main issue I see is that they both say they can change the terms at any time, with no notice to you, so basically they can do whatever the hell they want at any time in the future.

How does letting CIRA spy on me give me any additional privacy over my ISP?

I wish I could give a shit about the Green party but after like a decade of infighting, I couldn’t care less. We live in a time of global environmental emergencies and they’ve completely failed to capitalize on that.

I was talking to a friend and we both mentioned how we saw Elizabeth May on TV talking beside someone and we weren’t sure whether it was her or the other guy who was the leader.

Are they still fiscal conservatives? What stupid combination of policies.

At my local grocery store, all canned soup comes from the US. There’s some alternatives that are made in Canada, but they’re all in different packages (Happy Planet comes in pouches, Soups On comes in these massive jars) - none available in cans.

This guy already can see Russia from his house. He runs our local Russian propaganda sub on Lemmy.ca lol
