It's in bad shape right now, thanks to hillbillies harassing them until they retired. It's gonna take yeeeeaars to fix, just as soon as we can pay any attention to it.
But, here the thing: I know from my experience that access to healthcare is no better for their system; just your bank account will dictate whether you get an ambulance or not.

\sigh
It's amazing how a second or 5 at so many levels causes micro-frustration. And it builds up, too.
I admit I lose just a bit of my shit when the neu web-service web-apps get sluggish, which seems to be very often. Those of us who remember the halcyon days where things were responsive on a pentium know better than to accept the current mess.
My tolerance for the poor performance and saas-linked core services is rapidly waning.
Adderall-brain says what? I worry he's got attention concerns after all those horrible rumours of unchecked substance abuse. I've heard him speak and it doesn't refute that assertion.
43% of new architects are women
I see you writing "57% are not women", and I understand people choose their own path.
This is clearly a plan to minimize career paths for women.
At 43%? It seems like a plan to minimize THAT career path for all humans, with a mix that trends male slightly.
Is 43% still less than half?
We've had minority governments before. We have one now.
Usually it's when the best things happen for us.
It's hard to use the successes of one system to promote another, though, as all of the good things we got from our minority government happened before prop rep.
What you get is something with an acceptable warranty and maybe some support.
What you then realize is what you DON'T have on your consumer gear.
Abolishing rent control is gonna be so great in a short time.
Bad for renters, but that's never part of the calculation.
Offspring.
And that's why we like it.

Air Canada has apologized to customers who were allegedly escorted off a plane for refusing to sit in a chair covered with vomit for the duration of their over four-hour flight.
The airline issued a statement after a viral Facebook post claimed two as-yet unidentified female flyers were told there was nothing to be done about the visible vomit on their soiled seats.
Oh! AirCanada!
Some contracts, like my union contract, specifically affirm they are breaking the law and where; like "section 51.2 of the labour code is superceded by the following terms when the employee is left-handed: etc..."
Union IT. Time-and-a-half begins the moment I have approved work past 4h51 in the day, or 7.81 hours. Double-time for weekend work or stat holidays, for which I already make pay, so it could be triple.
It very rarely happens.
But, even on a good day, at 4:51 pm, it's usually "tools down" and we bullshit on slack until we all wander off. Because it's home offices all around, ever since COVID day 1.
