If there's ever been a place for nuance, it's the list of instances when educated, intelligent people should be compelled to hit a person for words they've uttered.

This is not on my list and it's a pretty good example that nonsensical far left echo chamber that would send anyone left in the center to the other side and drive tolerant people in the chamber to violence.

I thought you guys were talking about a guy in a nazi costume screaming mein kampf at the protesters but I just searched it out and you're talking about this right?

That's hosed up. The guy is calmly answering a question about pepe and gets coldcocked out of nowhere. The guy who can't be countered on a rational level is the guy in black, there's no ration there, it's all emotion. The one good thing I will say about this new, more violent left is a) they can stop pretending they're better than the right, just different. And no more jazzhands instead of clappings. Two good things.

How calorie counts on chain restaurant menus 'can have a lasting impact'
Dishing on calories gets a third of consumers to change their order
CBC News Posted: Jan 23, 2017 5:00 AM ET Last Updated: Jan 23, 2017 8:43 AM ET

Calorie counts on chain restaurant menus may surprise some consumers into changing their choices, but the longer-term benefit may be from companies improving their recipes, a public health expert says.

As of Jan. 1, new regulations in Ontario require restaurants with 20 or more locations to post calorie information for food and drink items on menu boards, take-out flyers and apps. Some chains have also introduced the changes across the country, said Dr. Eric Hoskins, Ontario's health minister.

"Transparency and issues like calorie counts, I think it's important," Hoskins said. "I think it's a level of accountability that we can provide to consumers which will be appreciated."

New York City has required similar labels since 2008.

The calorie counts can hit home for consumers, said David Hammond, a professor in the school of public health at the University of Waterloo, in Waterloo, Ont.

Calorie counts in restaurant menus have shown me that certain dishes I happen to like are awful from a health perspective.

Once I started really paying attention to my food intake the amount of calories in stuff I thought was a not too bad light snack is astounding. I'm just thankful there are places around here that sell stuff like apples and bananas or there would be literally nothing to go buy for a snack when I don't bring enough for lunch, except for high calorie sugary garbage I just don't want to eat anymore, except when I get a care package of christmas baking or are in the middle of a super long bike ride and literally need a mouth full of sugar and carbs to keep going.

gently caress black coffee I actually like my sugar and milk. That being said I sure as hell don't have three cups a day anymore. Hardly ever more than one.

Same with beer. I'm not giving that up but these days I'm not opening one up unless it's at the end of a day with a lot of hard work. Only exception is if we''ve cracked open a new growler, it's a crime to let a good craft beer go flat.

Trump's "agenda"

Literally "gently caress poo poo up", hastily scrawled on the back of a napkin with a borrowed pen.

Oh no, he has an agenda. And it has fans in Canada.

quote:

Lawrence Solomon: They said Trump wasn�t conservative. Now he�s already batting nearly a thousand

�Trump is not a true conservative,� #NeverTrumpers charged for months, even after Trump won the Republican nomination for president. Maybe not. But no conservative can be dismayed by the agenda Trump has begun to roll out today, his first Monday on the job following his inauguration. As far as true conservatives are concerned, Trump is pretty much batting a thousand.

Believe in small government? The Trump team plans to unveil a budget in the next 100 days that will propose more than US$10 trillion � yes, trillion with a �t� � in cuts over 10 years. Based on the Heritage Foundation�s Blueprint for Reform, the Trump team � peopled by some of the very same researchers who drafted Heritage�s blueprint � have gone beyond anything Republican fiscal hawks in Congress have contemplated.

Gone will be dozens of agencies and programs providing corporate welfare, such as the Department of Commerce�s Economic Development Administration, the International Trade Administration and the Minority Business Development Agency. Gone will be numerous government-owned or backed housing and mortgage agencies such as Fannie and Ginnie Mae, and Freddy Mac, which helped create the housing bubble and the subsequent financial crisis. Gone, too, will be largesse from most federal departments, and much of the red tape that now bleeds industry of profits and productivity.

Like privatization and free markets? The power-marketing authorities that now provide electricity to rural areas will lose their subsidies and be operated by private parties, to end the distortion they now cause in power markets. The postal service would lose its subsidies and be required to operate in the free market in competition with any firm that wants to vie for its customers. The Bureau of Reclamation that now subsidizes special interests through its allocation of water rights would be eliminated, with water rights instead being allocated by competitive bidding. Federal lands will be open to energy, mining and other resource developments.

Don�t like being lectured about white privilege, radical feminism and other politically correct propaganda funded at taxpayer expense from public broadcasters, arts organizations and government funding bodies? The Trump team plans to privatize the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and to altogether eliminate the National Endowment for the Arts and National Endowment for the Humanities, which feed the philosophies that deride and undermine American patriotism and American exceptionalism.

Trump plans to honour the many campaign promises that he made, and that conservatives care deeply about. Obamacare will be repealed and replaced with more market-oriented approaches, such as health-care allowances, which will let Americans control their health-care purchases, and the ability to buy insurance across state lines. Personal choice is also coming to education where school vouchers and other private sector innovations will be allowed to flourish as alternatives to the public school system that has failed America�s children so thoroughly. Almost the entirety of Trump�s domestic agenda � in financial reform, in labour reform, in telecommunications, in Supreme Court nominations and in fighting crime, including by building that wall � reads like a conservative�s wish list.

Away from home, Trump also bats about 1.000 with conservatives. As reiterated in his inaugural address Friday, he vows to eradicate radical Islamic terrorism from the face of the earth. On Israel, a core conservative issue, he remains determined to move the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem and to protect Israel against its enemies, whom with Barack Obama�s encouragement had engineered the recent anti-Israel resolution at the UN Security Council.

Because the UN is so hostile to the U.S., Trump � to the delight of conservatives � gave notice that America�s deference to the UN would change as soon as he took office. He�ll eviscerate programs that undermine America�s interests, starting with the UN�s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the mastermind of much of the climate change hysteria that the world has endured over the last quarter-century. The UN, which now receives almost a quarter of its funding from the U.S., will be forced to reform, failing which it risks going the way of its now-defunct predecessor, the League of Nations.

To accomplish what many view as the most ambitious conservative agenda ever proposed by an American president, Trump has assembled a dream team of a cabinet � not a squish among them. To almost everyone�s surprise, Trump freed these hardliners to oppose his policies in public as well as in private, as seen in their Congressional confirmation hearings where they unapologetically dissented from Trump�s views, and with his blessing. No need for cabinet solidarity under Trump; the buck stops with him, and everyone�s welcome to know it.

Trump will in all likelihood fall short in implementing his agenda � all presidents do, given the fierce lobbying that special interests will unleash on members of Congress, who ultimately hold the purse strings. And some Trump policies will doubtless offend conservatives. We do not yet know how his trade protectionism will play out, or whether his US$1 trillion infrastructure plan can escape being riddled by pork, and running up the federal debt.

But even if Trump ends up batting .500, he will go down in history as transformative, a president who rivals the ultimate conservative president, Ronald Reagan. Trump may indeed not be a true conservative, as many have feared; he may be adopting conservative policies not from ideological conviction but from a businessman�s bent of doing what works. Either way, #NeverTrump is dead; conservatism in America lives.

I would bold more, but where do you stop bolding? With the drive to eliminate entire agencies and academic funding bodies? With the idea of privatizing public utilities and opening up national parks to resource extraction? With the threat to defund the UN unless it stops talking about climate change? With the full-throated cheering for a cabinet full of billionaires who don't know the first thing about their assigned portfolios?

Getting hosed over in new trade deals with the US would be a huge blow to Trudeau's image, and that would only add to the growing list of campaign promise bumbles that are already hitting hitting his popularity. Under FPTP we could easily see a CPC majority win with like 37% of the vote.

Also O'Leary leads the internal CPC leadership polls. Regular folks arent voting for their leader, their registered base is and those people by and large love Trump and anyone they see as similar.

Don't worry, Liberals are getting ahead of that so that the evil cons don't get power and push through evil deals like Keystone XL.

quote:

Canada�s natural resources minister says that he hopes the new U.S. administration will allow the Keystone XL pipeline quashed by Barack Obama to proceed, noting that all Canadian regulatory approvals are in place.

Jim Carr spoke to CTV�s Power Play from Washington, D.C., where U.S. President Donald Trump was inaugurated Friday. Defence Minister Harijit Sajjan and Foreign Affairs Minister Chrystia Freeland were also in the U.S. capital.

Carr said that �all of the approvals that have to be in place are in place in Canada� and that Trump �should know and Canadians should know that we think the project is good for Canada.�
...
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said in November that during their first-ever phone call, Trump �brought up Keystone XL and indicated that he was very supportive of it and hoping that were going to be able to work together.�

During last year�s election campaign Trump said he would approve it but also said �the people of the United States should be given a piece -- a significant piece -- of the profits.�

No, Trudeau is Canada's Obama. Charismatic young leader who inspires a wave election due to hatred of the old conservative leader, loved around the world through contrast to other leaders, promises big things but doesn't deliver, progressive rhetoric but establishment policies, sets the stage for a populist backlash.

O'Leary really wants to be Canada's Trump. He may not get the racism part down but he would absolutely be all into the "privatize everything, cut everything, deregulate everything, slash the state, get rich" part.

Again, Trump has a mandate to destroy the established political order, because enough people decided they were sick of the establishment. Trudeau while perhaps shallow and charismatic, is pretty much the definition of the established political order, his mandate is business as usual.

We can totally have a populist backlash against the establishment here, all it will take is the Liberals continuing to do nothing but repeat the phrase "middle class" while more and more Canadians find themselves out of work while prices for goods skyrocket. Then our low-rent 2 years behind the states "Trump-lite" can step up with promises to shake things up and run the country like a business.

I could be wrong, and feel free to quote me on this if I am, but it's a very easy trajectory to envision.
