Given the NP article bunny posted and what it says about previous unfortunate on-camera utterances he's had, "NDP whore" sounds like it would be right up his alley.

I've noticed a ton of new breweries east of Toronto but 200 in Ontario alone? Holy crap that's a lot of craft breweries. I wonder how many the ~market~ can really support.

Was the big boom after 2007-2008? Because I don't really remember many before I moved to Quebec, but when I came back there seemed to be tons.
There are a lot of breweries making dumb gimmick or insipid beers. The bubble will eventually pop when your average beer drinker gets enough beer experience to identify better beers within style categories.

Most breweries here still can't balance their roast, malt and hops basics. But they just hop the poo poo out of it and people don't seem to mind.

They've recently started playing with sour beers which is not an easy brew. Most are terrible.

Quality of ingredients, product, or both?

In my pet product I've been trying to get some local farmers I know to consider growing hops/barley/etc with the growth of the craft beer industry in Durham, but it's still not as lucrative year-to-year as cash crops like soy and corn.

Products, processes. I'm giving everyone quality constructive feedback when I can. I trained as a brewer so I'm a fresh set of eyes.

Ingredients, I don't know. I think Ontario is going to have a pretty significant learning curve on hops especially. Odd varieties grow here with slightly different flavours and aromas. We probably can't grow the really popular west coast stuff, but we'll have other stuff for sure and it'll add a colour to the palette so to speak.

From a growing perspective, the shifting climate is opening up land that wouldn't be any good for hop growing normally. If we can stop paving over good farmland I think there'd be a decent market for brewers to buy locally, if they could afford it. But I have to admit I'm ignorant from a brewer's perspective in the impact soil, water, etc. has on the flavour of the crop.

Maybe I'm not sensitive enough to this issue because I am a walking check list of privileges and therefore have an easy time shrugging off mean comments that others might find more hurtful, but I really have trouble caring about some politician using salty language, even if it has a nasty gendered component to it. I find almost everything else our "leaders" do to be bad enough already without even thinking about what they say in some meeting with constituents.

I feel like lately I'm becoming more of an SJW just from reading awful Reddit posts about "freeze peach" and "censorship" from the PC crowd, but I don't think anyone should get away with that kind of unprofessional behaviour.

Yawn, Iktanski, this kind of gotcha crap is pretty stupid unless you can quote Professor Shark actually duplicitous defending Trudeau after his outburst in Parliament.

Guess what? Trudeau doing it was bad, thats why he formally apologized. That Tory MP refuses to formally apologize. In addition, yelling "gently caress" is way different than yelling a gendered slur.

This story is gotcha crap. The guy probably said horde. The tone of the speech was otherwise polite and the audio quality was bad. Maybe he did say whore but there's a lot of room to give him the benefit of the doubt that he just didn't annunciate a D enough that somebody's lovely cellphone could pick it up. That wouldn't do though, let's publish the story with the headline "Sask. MP Tom Lukiwski denies calling female politician a 'whore'".

Plus as Bunny's link points out, this would not be the first time he's said something like that:

Sure. I'm just saying that lot's of behavior that is considered "professional" or is accepted by pros bothers me more than this. I am a lot more bothered by Brad Lavigne working for Hill + Knowlton or Brian Topp founding a firm with Ken Boesenkool. Complaining about unprofessional language from our politicians feels to me like complaining about how uncomfortable the deck chairs on the Titanic are.

The only thing that bothers me here at all is -- assuming this guy did say "whore" and not "horde" -- that unfair way that we sexualize female politicians far more than their male counterparts. But even then, practically everything else that politicians do bothers me more than this.

I don't know about that comment, but I just listened to an interview with the reporter who recorded this one and tried to report on it. Highlights: she called the guy and asked him about what he said/ did you call her a whore, he said "Oh no I would never use that word, but if I did, I apologize!", then phoned back a few minutes later and said that his team had told him he'd used the word "hordes", and when she pointed out that didn't make a lot of sense he hung up on her ahahaha

He should have stuck with "horde", when your voice is going to be scrutinized you don't add any more vowels or consonants than you need to.
