I suspect it has to do with being a sort of household appliance. Similar to the fridge, the TV, the bathtub, etc. People think about it in that sense most frequently and it becomes the common parlance.

Alongside banners commemorating missing and murdered Indigenous women and the victims of Canada’s residential school system, Confederate flags flap gently in the wind.
Wow, I hate everything about that.
With a little research these culture vultures could have used an actual local “rebel” flag, this one:
But of course they appropriate a white supremacist flag from American history.
You are putting the responsibility for those murders entirely on Hamas rather than the government currently perpetrating them, thus justifying that government’s actions. You could have just as easily made your opening comment, “Man, if only Israel cared about international law.” Please stop insulting my intelligence.
You are literally justifying their actions. Justifying the murder of well over 30 thousand.
“Mr. President, the terrorists have taken hostages. What should we do?” “Bomb the building.” -A psychopath
Strange take. Presumably if Israel was replaced with a non-ethnostate, Jewish citizens of that state would get the same rights and treatment as every other citizen.
No, you did.
Emphasis on the sometimes. If you regularly put 80+ hours a week in even doing something you enjoy, eventually you will burn yourself out and there’s a good chance you won’t enjoy the thing anymore on the other side of that. Not for a long while, at any rate. Burnout is no joke.
As are most Americans.
18+ mosquitoes sucking my blood is pretty awful even without a phobia.
Historically this isn’t the case. Current polling does have Poilievre as the most popular choice among union members, however still at a lower rate than the Canadian average. So it seems like unions are stemming the growth of his support among its members somewhat, within the context of an overall upswell of Con support in Canada generally.
Yeah, all that housing in Vienna appeared from nowhere.
But sure, you have a great day as well.
Yes, of course. Banning short term rentals for example is a regulation that would put downward pressure on housing prices. Banning investment companies such as Blackrock, Blackstone, etc from purchasing single family homes, duplexes, 4-plexes and the like would do the same. Whereas the lack of regulation around these things has contributed to home price inflation. The idea that people are unable to afford homes because there is too much regulation holds water like a sieve.
Our current economic situation is the product of decades of regulation cutting supply side (aka neoclassical) economics championed by the likes of Thatcher and Reagan, which still dominates today. You know where housing is not unaffordable? Vienna, Austria. A place where better than half the residents live in social housing. The product of a strong government and regulation.
In fact, minimum wage earners tend to put a greater portion of their earnings back into the local economy vs. savings and increases help or at least don’t impact particularly negatively small business. Neoclassical economics is a joke.
Regulations help protect people from corporations. This libertarian take is total nonsense. What makes competition difficult for new entrants is the overwhelming size of modern day multinational corporations and the capital investment required to wage any sort of real competition which is something that is only going to be fronted by other extremely wealthy interests. So, yes, we do need bigger, stronger governments in relation to those very powerful corporations, specifically strong enough to break them up. Or ideally nationalize them entirely.
The USA is the largest source of foreign interference in Canadian politics by far, but sure, those guys as well.
I don’t know who they are, but they are most likely carrying a ceremonial mace.
The federal carbon price is not the “be-all, end-all” of climate policy, and New Democrats are open to alternative plans presented by premiers, NDP environment critic Laurel Collins said Wednesday.
I mean, okay, but when those alternatives are developing LNG extraction and exporting, maybe those aren’t good faith proposals.
Happy Canada Day to you as well.
