I really wish these polls would seperate Manitoba and Saskatchewan. Sample sizes would probably be too small but their electorate is different. Saskatchewan would probably be closer to Alberta.

The world would be a better place if more people actually understood the concept of correlation does not imply causation.

Elon, you already have a "Grokpedia," a so-called alternative to Wikipedia. its called " conservapedia.com " and it's just as unhinged as you'd imagine.

I'm donating to Wikipedia again but this time just to spite you, Musk.

Part of me wouldn't be surprised if the Republicans are actually polling better than most polling averages show (as they always seem to be). But come on, did they only do polls in North Dakota or something?

Proposed nuclear facility – SaskPower: Planning for nuclear power

I have family in Estevan, I hope they get a Nuclear Power plant that is being proposed. Saskatchewan literally has the largest Uranium mine the world. That fact Saskatchewan doesn't have a nuclear power plant already is mind boggling.

None of this is meant to absolve anyone of responsibility. Just paint a picture of a more complex situation.

Example: Post capitalism is causing increased pressure on people's mental health. But that's not a excuse to commit mass murder.

It's not meant to be an excuse. It's meant to be a descriptor for a social and public health trend we see these days, whether it be self inflicted or a result of external pressures.

Arguably it's just a "loneliness epidemic" effecting both men and women that's been made worse post covid.

I'll repost this because I kind of felt looked down upon and judged. But it is important in context that total hours alone doesn't mean you have no life. My hours are over years.

All of his hours together indicates a larger male loneliness and terminally online epidemic.

It's five letters, ends in "y," contains an "e," and includes a "b.'

I wasn't going to get today's #Wordle, so I decided to cheat and experiment. ChatGPT is dumber than I am. Glad were are using all that electricity. Experiment results? Still don't like generative AI. Won't even help me cheat at Wordle like a loser.

I think so, as someone who thinks of themselves as a YIMBY. Which is why your comment is confusing me a bit.

Doesn't YIMBY mean "Yes, in my backyard?" I thought that meant YIMBYs wanted more housing density, increased public transit, etc. Aren't housing co-ops part of that vision? Leaving development to the private sector is part of how we got into this mess?

Sometimes, I wish these polls would show me Manitoba and Saskachewan seperate so I can know if Poilievre's approval ends up being higher than Alberta, as that is my suspicion. (Unfortunatly).

Are the Liberals actually this popular? We saw them polling really well pre-election, projecting majority then they ended up with bit short with a minority government and Cons over performing. How does the model account for this?

How is housing so low all the time? I mean it's number 4 but 7% feels really low, guess there is a lot of homeowners being polled.

Coming from a city (Saskatoon) where our mayor gets called Bike Lane Charlie, I can understand how cyclists can get defensive. Some can be irritating, like any type of person.

I would like to see better public transit across the country. Because I can't say I'm really a fan of cars (another issue)

We really need to stop comparing right-wingers like Stephen Miller and Ted Cruz to vampires. It's completely insulting to vampires and they don't deserve such slander.
