Good point, though it feels like there’s already uncertainty being stoked in the media questioning how much longer this government will last in power. I don’t think that was even the case under Trudeau when he got his last minority government with much fewer seats than Carney.

Suffice to say, I really want to see some ground breaking on the project but I won’t hold high hopes until we get to that point.

I’ll believe it when the contracts are signed and shovels are in the ground. With a minority Liberal government, I have a hard time believing it’s going to happen.

It’s good to hear progress, but unless the Liberals maintain power, there’s still too much uncertainty if it’ll take off.

Not by much. Doug at least sometimes walks back on his poor decisions when enough pressure mounts, but he’ll still appease his donors by fucking the people one way or another.

This sparks joy as a sysadmin that likes trains.

Having the minimum wage be indexed to inflation was a really nice start for the provinces that have it.

Now, minimum wage STILL isn’t enough and there really should be another big bump to bring it in line with the average cost of living at the least. The only concern with this fight to finally bring minimum wage up to the average cost of living is that gives an opportunity for inflation indexing to be dropped with that minimum wage bump which would eventually bring us back to square one like how past minimum wage bumps were before tying to inflation

That’s totally false that the community mailbox moratorium is just to protect the jobs of mail carriers.

Community mailboxes were a hot topic issue in the lead up to the 2015 Federal election with residents of the proposed conversions complaining about how difficult it will be to take more than one step out the door to get their mail.

With the Liberals promising a stop to the conversions, Canada Post paused the plans after they won the election

That doesn’t seem like an issue. If you require an expedited delivery of mail, then you’d need to pay for it from my understanding. I’d imagine its not much different from overnighting a package

Nobody in this province follows the speed limit, so on the contrary to most commenters and especially Doug Ford, I’d much rather have automated enforcement be made more widespread, especially in areas with higher road-related fatalities.

Also, unlike a cop being assigned to do random speed checks, speeding cameras dont have a racial bias.

What I don’t miss are channels that put on Episode-marathons showing back-to-back episodes of a series. The multi-part episodes either air in the wrong sequence, or they don’t play those part-episodes at all.

Gotta love seeing a 3-part episodes with episode 3/3 to start, 1/3 comes next and 2/3 couldn’t make the cut in a 2+hr episode marithon.

I’m sure Dougie’s comments won’t empower more people to cut down the speed cameras again across the city /s
