    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Having watched some of Business Insider's Boot Camp documentaries about culinary service in the military last year, it's insane how much food soldiers are (normally) given, and the quality of it. So to see it reduced to the amounts they seem to be getting, I can't imagine morale is anything less...

    Alto - High Speed Rail (Toronto-Quebec City)

    I don't even think it's that—though I agree kids can often see the value of walkability. Our downtown teen daughter is a champ and thinks nothing of a 2 or 3 km walk just to get somewhere. But, I also have suburban twin teen nephews and a niece who have gotten into the habit of thinking driving...

    President Donald Trump's United States of America

    Also, he's a rapist who's shredding the constitution daily and destroying the global economy in the name of his personal pride. That's far more important than (as someone else put it), an "80-year-old man doing old man stuff".

    I'm not arguing that; I'm saying that at least in the case of Spain there are other cultural factors at play that make the comparison much harder. Humanity isn't homogenous. Of all places (including those listed above) you chose to use a Spanish exemplar.

    Alto - High Speed Rail (Toronto-Quebec City)

    I don’t think comparing Spain and Canada is fair here. The culture in Spain is quite a bit different. Punctuality there takes a backseat to almost everything, especially work-life balance, and I could see people taking the train over a plane simply to get more rest and comfort over any feeling...

    Alto - High Speed Rail (Toronto-Quebec City)

    Pretty sure Uber is “public transit” Pretty sure Uber is “public transit” for those with money these days, at least for those not part of the 200,000 who drive into the city every day right beside those GO tracks on the Gardiner.

    2026 Toronto Mayoral Race

    The Conservative Party does seem rather addicted to rage baiting based on false and misleading information. Centrism won't erase that.

    Alto - High Speed Rail (Toronto-Quebec City)

    Unlike other places (even the UK), we don't have a culture where taking the train is considered "normal" for a business person. Like how so many upper middle class suburbanites view public transit, it still holds an air of "Ew, but why would you if you could take a plane/car?". Unless it's...

    If only we can get Canada on board with the idea of ekiben.

    Hey, even the Mafia had their own version of honour killings.

    Find me the page on their website to support that claim. I dare you. Otherwise, you're just trolling again.

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    You literally implied the entirety of Canada is concerned with pronouns. Most people don't care. The question is, why DO YOU? Please, enough with the BS. Put up examples. I'm not sure if you can see the nuances here, but Leah Gazan is not the leader of the party. Nor is MMIWG2SLGBTQQIA+ as...

    Like? Name a country. Name a religion.

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    And? Why should MAGA's opinion matter to anyone in Canada? Those nut jobs can keep their dysfunctional rage BS on that side of the border. I will always attack rage-baiting grifters. Trying to make money off being divisive (while constantly claiming others are the divisive ones) has become...

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    Right. No, I'm pretty sure that's how they are and have always been perceived by ignorant conservatives who don't know the difference between communism and social democracy. Or are you saying the number of ignorant people is growing in the country? "Without too much commentary"? C'mon. The...

    Premier Doug Ford's Ontario

    As a literal card carrying NDP member, I can tell you that is completely false and a video of highly cherry picked cuts from a wannabe conservative influencer is proof of sweet-fuh-all. Also, what's with the soviet propaganda imagery in the background? Yeah, so you picked the one from the...

    Show us on the doll where the pronoun hurt you.

    Please, do tell. What cultures "encourage" it, and what cultures condemn it?

    How are the Liberals “the opposite end of the spectrum” from the Conservatives? FFS, the federal Liberals are further right than Bill Davis at this point.

    PM Mark Carney's Canada

    “Honour killing” is a BS term used to demonize immigrants. Plenty of misogynist killings of women happen at the hands of non-immigrants and caucasians. We only seem to want to attach the moniker of “honour killing” if it can be tied to cultural values. Is the killing of a woman at the hands...
