Let people be angry FART AMPLIFIER. I had a friend of mine, scientist turned tattoo artist (she rules), message me absolutely livid and upset - wondering if it was okay to hate these people. I said it's perfectly fine - they are absolute scum and after a year and a half of this plague being extended cause of them hatred is justified.

O'Toole brought up his insane "Trudeau made a deal with Commie China" conspiracy theory and Blanchet threw a tantrum when Singh said systemic racism was present in Quebec.

Did the debate take place in an airport bathroom? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_posing It's obvious crankery that took off in the 2010s about how it makes you look more powerful.

On a question around Indigenous affairs and mass unmarked graves being discovered, Blanchet immediately seemed to ignore the question and try to pivot somehow into accusing Singh and the Liberals of using the issue to call Quebec racist and like man maybe line that came off more nuanced in French (as I was watching the english dub) but that seemed loving insane to me??? Blanchet attacked Singh twice on "calling Quebec systemically racist" and I think Singh held his ground here (albeit in english dub). In the press conference after, an anglo reporter asked Blanchet if he thought systemic racism existed in general or just not in Quebec, and Blanchet dodged that question. All of this seemed like it would be near career ending anywhere else but it's Quebec so I guess it plays different ![]() Also both Blanchet and O'Toole were proclaiming that there's a huge job shortage because of CRB and CRB needs to be cut. Singh was the only person that pushed back on this idea, noting that CRB is less than minimum wage and that the workers were not there to be found because of low wages. (Also literally they all probably got new, better jobs months and months ago when they were laid off initially)

Alberta to implement additional covid measures which may include "recommending that unvaccinated people limit their social contacts". I'm sure that will stop the thousands of people getting COVID every day.

Idiots all over the country keep repeating "The government needs to get rid of CERB! No one is working because of CERB!", and it's such a dumb tired opinion because:
All that to say, CRB 'aint creating a job shortage, and the people that claim that are loving morons. They're up there with "the vaccine isn't FDA approved" despite the FDA having jack poo poo to do with Canada. mom and dad fight a lot fucked around with this message at 21:00 on Sep 3, 2021 |

The college I work at has decided to give up on setting it's own Covid policy and are only going to enforce the Alberta government's policy from now on. Which of course means doing basically nothing but "recommending" masks, distancing, and vaccines. The best part is one of the buildings on campus is a LTC facility with an active outbreak, and people who work in that building are free to enter other buildings without wearing masks. Us in the IT department asked to be allowed to require that people wear masks while we work with them, but were told no. We can request that people wear a mask, but we can't refuse to work with people if they say no. I've had colds/flu turn into viral pneumonia at least a dozen times in my life. Even vaccinated I don't like my chances if I catch Covid. I'm being required to come in for the sake of making things appear normal as possible for students, even though I just sit in a cubicle all day. I really hate this province.

The Bloc kinda needs Quebec’s festering racism to get and hold power, so of course Blanchet would hem and haw when asked if he thought racism was maybe a bad thing.

So, a $100 gift card to get your shot, asking unvaxxed to pretty please not socialize, and there's a liquor sale curfew. Also surgeries are getting postponed. This is going wonderfully for Alberta isn't it.

Can't give people cash or we might not get a cut.

Rick Bell is imploding on the phone line. It's rich that he's saying he's taken a low profile because of the federal election. Wasn't the tune he played two years ago. Arc Hammer fucked around with this message at 19:37 on Sep 3, 2021 |

This Alberta "Not a vaccine passport" vaccine card is sounding more and more like a vaccine passport. They're adding "QR code technology" so that it can be verified. Too bad it won't be enforced basically anywhere.

A lot of people in Quebec think tat admitting the existence of systemic racism will mean we admit every single one of us is racist. There are also the ever persecuted group who think we can't be racist because the English population of Canada somehow hate us and are still apparently working on following the recommendation of Lord Durham from the 1830's...

Not surprised, Ford has a lot of the same issues as Kenny and the other PC premiers where even larger swaths of his base hate him for enforcing COVID measures at all. It'd probably be higher if the PPC had more presence or what candidates they do have wasn't a non-stop parade of freaks and geeks.
