It started slow because it's a fundamental shift in care against a deeply hostile provider (dentists), and everyone under 90k will be eligible in less than a year. That's not super slow for a national health program, even if it is means tested, it's still a very big change. Where do you think you are.gif

Cold on a Cob posted:**multigenerational households get a bad rap and we have no kids so we could do this, but my father in law is an eccentric hoarder who refuses to fix anything in his home so actually we can't they're good and an option we're looking at but yeah everyone has to be willing to compromise. still think it's hilarious the intergenerational household renovation tax credit can only be claimed by people 65 and older (or people on disability which is fine)

The feds are slowly talking about doing their own program (lol) because conservative provincial governments are actively killing people by gutting these programs which were already awful. Ford and Smith especially. It's literally criminal.

It will increase inflation by like 0.0000001%. They want disabled people to be immiserated to act as a warning to the proletariat.

CLAM DOWN posted:isn't that the town that just banned pride flags yeah but only because a majority of the inhabitants (Albertans) wanted it. quote:The results of a plebiscite Thursday mean the town of 4,800, about 90 kilometres north of Edmonton, will only allow flying government flags and crosswalks painted with standard white stripes, and a rainbow-coloured Pride crosswalk will be removed.

quote:“It’s not appropriate for the symbols of special interest groups to be showcased in such a prominent way. It’s a form of bullying,” said Pedersen, who had attempted to introduce a similar petition before the crosswalk was painted last year.

as always with these fucks its projection. on some level in their psyche they know theyre bullying people so they lash out and accuse the other side of it because they regain a logical consistency that their actions are entirely justified

a primate posted:this one is just too good (CTV via TikTok) it's entirely possible in modern vehicles that when you're turning left, the A-pillar perfectly blocks your vision of the pedestrian, as you continue the turn and they continue walking across the street. I've almost hit somebody before like this when driving a big truck, and it makes me feel horrible. it's obviously still your fault as a driver if you do hit or even almost hit somebody. you have to be aware of what's going on around you, and drive slower if you know your sightlines are bad. that cop was driving like a psycho, so like a regular cop.

Personally I was a fan of the barely disguised Blood and Soil followed by pretending there wasn't a coup: "You are fighting for your sovereignty, for your territory, for your language, for your culture, for your democracy (elections suspended, opposition banned) but also for our democracy (there's a scary thought) for everyone's deeply held right to choose their own future"

As stupid as the Westlock thing is, I think that pride crosswalks outside of historically gay neighborhoods is also kind of stupid.
