Billionaires aren't paying for your labour, they are extracting their fortunes from it. Until more people realize this, nothing will change.

I talked to my neighbours and asked a simple question: you voted for Pierre, but were you voting for his politics or against the other party? They were quick to answer that they were simply sick of Justin and thought Pierre could beat him.
I'm not sure they got the memo that Justin wasn't running.

ADHD fail of the week:

Nearly burning my house down because I left a pot of pierogies on the stove on high and went into another room and closed the door. It wasn't until I thought I smelt something funny did I realize.

I will be microwaving pierogi for the foreseeable future.

Extra sour cream.

Seems like people vote for the person who has the most signs up.

But remember, if you didn't personally donate or volunteer for the campaign, it just means someone with more money than you paid for them. Whose email/call are they likely to answer?

Sorry, it's not yours.

Research your candidates.πŸ™

I live in a rural town in Canada and FedEx called me to say they had my package but were unable to deliver it as they only go as far as their depot, then Canada Post takes it from there. So people are paying FedEx prices to get Canada Post delivery in rural Canada? Are you kidding me?

We are made to think that O&G is the only thing that keeps Alberta running. But with 2.8 million people working in Alberta it means only 4.5% of our population is working in O&G.
$29B was given by our Gov to O&G in 2024 for 150,000 workers. $193k per worker.

But we can't afford to pay teachers.🀦

That was uncalled for. I suppose you didn't see that I'm a leftist who moved to a rural town.
Why don't you try, without the attitude, to read what I'm saying. It's not a slight against any group, it's just an observation.

Also, *neighbours. If you're going to be an A, at least check your grammar.

I am a leftist who recently moved to a rural town. My politics aren't changing. It was just something I noticed.

Here they offer tools and advice and even extra stuff they have just laying around. It's just different.

I was scared to move here, but it's like their politics and values don't align.

If some kid punched you in the face every day...how long before you punched them back?

On October 7th the bully was punched in the nose.

Every day since we have seen the bully having a full-blown tantrum.

Keep up the pressure. Once the bully loses their gang of thugs, peace talks can begin.

No matter who you are, you need to first be content in your own ethos before you can be of service to others.

Share what makes you happy and you will soon find those around you feeling your joy.

Here's the facts: by age 6 months babies will have 6 different vaccines over 3 visits. From 6 months to a year there are 2 more vaccines added over 2 visits. From one year to age 5 there are 2 more boosters of already received vaccines. Finally 3 new vaccines in adolescence.
That's 11 in 9 visits.

Understand that there's a stark difference between apathy and empathy.

And neither is a celebration.

According to Charlie, empathy is a woke concept anyway.

Why are the people who support him expecting it from us now?

It's absurd that you expect us to cry. Apathy is all we have left to give.

🚨PET PEEVE ALERT🚨
And solution:

If you are one of those people who says "one thousand percent" what you are saying is: 1000 per 100, which makes no sense.
Can we start saying 1000 "per milia", as that would be 1000 of one thousand.

Per Milia
Or
Permilia

Maybe Miriam will add it one day...πŸ˜‰

If you're always conforming to social expectations, are you really being true to yourself, or are you just scared to be who you truly are?

🚨Parents🚨

When your kids are frustrating you and you're ready to burst: take a step back and remember that with all your years of experience, the situation is disregulating your system.

Imagine what it's doing to a toddler or teen that is still trying to figure out the world.

Hey Alberta, in case you're one of the separatists, here's some figures from 2023:
-Albertans paid $28B in Federal taxes
-Transfers to Alberta were $9B
Sounds awful, right?
Until you learn that O&G subsidies are where the other $19B went.
Leaving Canada won't save you anything. Another Lie.

One quirk we Canadians have is we will hold a door open for someone coming for an obscenely long time. While usually that person then rushes up to avoid causing the door holder to be there any longer than necessary.
What other things have you found are uniquely Canadian?

For some women, it feels like there are very few spaces safe enough to share with men.
Most men, even if they don't participate, won't speak up against misogyny or any awful statements made when women aren't present.
It's not all men, but until it's none, no woman can be truly safe.

My neighbour was complaining about the Liberal government and how they just took all of Pierre's ideas and implemented them. Basically intonating that he has no ideas of his own.
I think my reply shook her:
Yeah. I know. Why aren't you happy yet?

After today's verdict from the judge on the Hockey Canada trial, it's important to remember: being found not guilty doesn't mean they are innocent. It just means the Crown didn't prove their case. #IbelieveEM
