Does the name have to be spelled correctly for the vote to count?

Reality: that β€œextra revenue” is higher costs paid by regular American consumers & businesses, and the β€œtax relief” is going to the rich not you.

JD is pissing πŸ’¦ on your head and telling you it’s raining β€” and @marshablackburn is using this line also as she runs for governor.

It's all part of Project 2025. Scary how people who believe this stuff can get into power and actually implement so much of it.

As the Liberals focus on β€œnation-building” projects and commit to significantly increasing defence spending, women’s advocates are raising the alarm about the expiry of funds for programs that address violence against women and girls across Canada.

Back in May 2021 I posted on twitter about a journey I'd undertaken to find a tree that I can see from our bedroom window. I've decided to post it verbatim on here as lots of people really enjoyed it. So, here it is…

Do you think if Russia invaded the USA and declared ownership of Texas, that we would we EVER consider submitting to a treaty giving Texas and their citizens to Russia?
Then why would the Ukraine?

CO2 monitors have become popular tools people can use to estimate their indoor air quality.

A new study was recently published that looks into how we can use them to optimise occupancy thresholds and identify problem locations.

Actual practical science!!!

Glad to see the Newfoundland & Labrador govt substantially increase fines & jail time for people willfully ignoring the provincial fire ban.

Apparently it’s not common sense for some people that they need to keep their sea-doo’s off the ponds that the waterbombers are using to fight the Newfoundland forest fires.

Do people think at all before they do stuff like this?

Ultra-processed foods make up more than 50% of Americans' calories. That’s a problem, and changing dyes in Froot Loops doesn’t fix it. Tell your nearest HHS Secretary.

Republicans: Raising tariffs won't raise prices because everyone in the supply chain will eat those costs before they get to the consumer.

Also Republicans: You can't raise taxes on corporations because they'll pass those costs on to the consumer.

None of these corporations are "eating" the cost of tariffs. They are burning through pre-tariff inventory. Tariffs along with the loss of immigrant farm workers is why the cost of fresh foods are shooting through the roof compared to dry and canned goods. Corporations work only for stockholders.

Grocery stores that have been eating the cost of tariffs are about to pump the brakes. Some are looking to be more transparent about the coming price hikes.

Starting tomorrow, new tariffs of 15% to 50% hit a wide range of food items.

If you’ve got a household food budget, this is a must-watch.

Happy birthday to Sidney Crosby, born on this day in 1987 in Halifax!
One of the greatest NHL players ever, he has won two Art Ross, two Harts, three Ted Lindsay, three Stanley Cups, two Rocket Richards, two Conn Smythes and two Olympic Golds. He is also a 10-time All-Star.

Ontario has the lowest cost for hip replacements of any province. Why would the Ford government move to much more expensive for-profit hip surgeries? To allow the wealthiest Ontarians to bypass wait lists. Costs will balloon and wait lists will grow but the most affluent will buy speedy access.
