What was that chief

Wow I'm honestly surprised this loser did the right thing. Maybe he'll surprise me again and do the right thing and resign.

Garbage fire burns up.

Sorry about Gavin Innes though, sometimes shit falls down

Good, I hope they get what they're owed. If Sobeys is making record profits their employees should be reaping the benefits

I'm a municipal planner and I can't afford to live in the city I work for. It's been two years and I'm still commuting 50 minutes each way because there is nothing suitable to rent in my price range for my family. My partner and I have a decent down payment saved up but even paying 15% down we're still looking at 3000 a month for anything anything that isn't a 1br condo that is too small for us.

We make a combined 135k a year.

That's maybe enough for one 100 unit building a year, depending on where it's built, which is something but so far from anything substantial.

Building is fucking expensive right now even if the province uses paramountcy to bypass municipal zoning. Plus, the province sucks ass at building compared to private because its gov't. That's not too say I don't support massive amounts of public housing being built because I do 100%, but gov't is gov't.

Further, people who live in cities tend to be healthier than those that don't. Driving everywhere and constantly being in traffic is not good for you mentally or physically.

I never understood this show when I was a kid watching it, I still don't but it's funny as hell.

when that money could be going to useful things other than lawyers.

Wouldn't that be great.

If you think you're life will get any better under the Conservatives you're lying to yourself. Ontario is a representation of what is to come, their "solutions" will be nothing more than poor choices that will do more damage than good to the average person and will enrich their friends.

You can bitch about the federal liberals all you want but the fact of the matter is housing, healthcare, transportation are all handled by the province and those are failing due to decades of Conservative leadership. BC finally got rid of our Conservative party in 2017 and things have slowly gotten better, still not great but I guarantee better than if we stayed with the cons; at least our current premier is actually trying to make real change to legislation and policy to move the province out of the 1900s.

As a 32 year old with tens of thousands in school debt living with my parents who can't afford to move out despite making a decent income, I understand feeling like things aren't going to get better, but I guarantee voting for the party that has been sucking corporate dick and spitting in the face of the middle and lower classes in the open for decades isn't going to make things better for me, or you, or anyone in this country who actually needs the help.
