http://www.cbc.ca/beta/news/canada/british-columbia/foreign-buyer-tax-15-per-cent-metro-vancouver-1.3709442 The CBC's getting in on the  BC real restate market bandwagon. Poor couple buys a house before closing the sale on their million dollar property and now has to pay TWO mortgages when their buyer gets spooked by the new 15℅ foreign ownership tax.

Two poorly meshed gears that will slip, constantly losing efficiency until everything grinds to a halt? Yes, a perfectly apt metaphor for public sector unions.

Why should we pay attention to that? We need to focus on the real issues: the Prime Minister, at various times while on holiday, wasn't wearing a shirt! Like, for gently caress sake, it's not like JT is leaving us wanting for reasons to criticize him, why is his shirtlessness being focused on more than these very real issues? It's not like it was Nenshi without a shirt, which would be a horrifying sight worthy of actual criticism

The sad thing is that, even knowing what I know now, I can't say I'd vote differently. I'm in the dead-zone of the vote compass on a consistent basis  I just hate the Liberals slightly less than the alternatives.

Maybe he came to the conclusion that you're all out of your minds, and has less patience for toying with y'all than I do. EDIT: Except CI, he's the only sane person here, but he's a bit of a jerk (or, to give him something to attack: a wanker and a ponce).

I'd like to point out about 90% of these layoffs where done 2 years ago when the funding for their projects was killed. Science in this country is hosed for a generation. The Liberal party only barely saved the NRC at the last minute like, 2 hours before the old President announced it's dismantling when the Minster showed up for it's 100th anniversary party. As far as the Phoenix and Shared Services stuff goes they are both such a disaster it will take years to fix. The old payroll system already so broken due to layoffs before Phoenix came online it couldn't be fixed. The only reason it didn't fall apart before hand was dumb luck but tons of people had long term pay problems under it (like me when I joined the public service full time and somehow didn't get paid for 12 weeks when going from term to continuing). I'm also sure that many of you are unaware that SSC is a double outsourcing in that the previous government paid CGI so much money that they outsourced it to Bell and still made a huge profit. The Libs are going to Lib but the current disaster that is the public service in this case is not really their fault, they just get to clean up the mess.

How recent is this StatsCan data though? I couldn't find any indication that it's been updated since May, but Environment Canada published a supplementary estimate in June that allocated an additional $84.6 million in spending, so this StatsCan data may be reflecting EC's main estimates from February rather than the revised ones. (this was the original source btw for those who didn't want to go digging through that guy's twitter feed: http://www5.statcan.gc.ca/cansim/a26?lang=eng&retrLang=eng&id=3580166&&pattern=&stByVal=1&p1=1&p2=-1&tabMode=dataTable&csid= )

I"m sure they haven't as SSC was originally created to do two things, get government purchasing of computer equipment under control and update the horribly out of date email system. Neither of those things have really gotten done.

They did, that was based on the federal government's Main Estimates, but the government also publishes Supplementary Estimates when a department doesn't have their numbers ready by the deadline. Environment Canada apparently didn't have their poo poo together in February/March when the Main Estimates and budget were published, but got an additional ~$100 million when the Supplementary Estimates were published in June, which keeps their funding (and presumably their staffing as well) at around the same overall levels as last year. That's why I'm curious to know how recently the StatsCan jobs figures were updated, whether they reflect the February/March figures or the June figures. http://tomduck.ca/posts/2016-07-13_misery-continues-at-ec.html http://www.tbs-sct.gc.ca/hgw-cgf/finances/pgs-pdg/se-bsd/sups/a/20162017/sea-bsda02-eng.asp#toc2-17

That's why I'm curious to know how recently the StatsCan jobs figures were updated, whether they reflect the February/March figures or the June figures. EC received 76.5M in Vote 1a (operating) for climate change and air pollution in Supps A (as I'm sure you know, because you're pointing it out - NRCAN, INAC, PHAC, the Standards Council, and Transport also received money for this horizontal initiative), so we know roughly what this money will be for. From B2016:
I'll grant that some of the $76M looks destined for science at EC, but I'm skeptical that it's 406 scientists worth, given all of the other spending obligations outlined. (To be pedantic, that's not the purpose of Supps. It's not a question of "numbers not ready by the deadline", Supps A through C are routinely published every year, and reflect +/- funding changes that each department has undergone since the last update, typically following a Cabinet or Treasury Board approval)

It would be like attempting to restore the old science libraries, they could say the funding is there but its too late.

The LPC reopened the Kitsilano coast guard station and provisioned it with new boats. If there's a will, there's a way. In this case, there's no will (Just like C-51, it seems).
