Dreylad posted:quebec has an incredibly robust social welfare state (relative to the rest of canada) backed by most parties' commitment to some form of social democratic policies, although neoliberal austerity has infected its politics over the last thirty years. As much as I hate Bill 21, this is the correct take. I admire the fact that the Maple Spring happened and how it couldn't have happened anywhere else in Canada. What Doug Ford did to higher education is much worse than anything Charest did and yet there was nary a peep here in Ontario.

ah yes, the traditional "Hi Ya" chant of the Wannabe tribe https://twitter.com/backtolife_2019/status/1490068142596448260 e: it was a video of anti maskers posing as “indigenous drummers” which I guess they pulled down after they got like 150 replies pointing out it sounded nothing like any songs or rhythms done by real indigenous people Juul-Whip has issued a correction as of 09:40 on Feb 6, 2022 |

I always wanted to go to a 67s game because their arena is weird as hell and its under the bleachers of the CFL stadium so one side is like, really high and the other is super low.

I went to a lot of Ottawa Champions games the year they won their league against a far superior team. They came from behind in the series, some of the games were real nailbiters. Every other year they were complete dogshit. That's my Ottawa baseball story.

I love those can am and AAA teams because you get weird mixes of washed out ballplayers, players that just arent good enough and wont give up the dream, and young prospects. Eastbound and down does a great job of capturing that feeling. Imagine being a former mlb player and playing in loving ottawa in front of 200 people for 10k a year.

there was a freedom convoy that ran through brandon yesterday in support of ottawa, there was 3 semis, 4 pickups and a Chevy HHR. funny enough there was a Ukrainian flag in the back of one of the semis so i don’t know if that was in support of ukraine, neo nazis or canadas stance on ukraine

infernal machines posted:during the city meeting the OPS revealed that they allowed the convoy logistics encampment Like, they didn't have permits to protest in the first place, right? So why the gently caress do they get a supply camp? Who owns the space they're using for the encampment? I get it if the cops literally cannot disrupt the protest itself from lacking the machinery to haul the trucks out of the core, but it seems like a bare minimum effort to disrupt the protest by cutting off supplies? Gonna be so pissed of people fall for "this is why the cops need more funding" bullshit.
