Cause we did elect the guy that doesn't give a shit about the environment and hasn't done shit to stand up against Trump.

Okay fine I'll get up. Jeez.

That's wild I'm sorry that's happened to you so many times and that the cops have been so shitty about it. Thanks for the explanation.

Controlled rent would also be fantastic and has worked in economically diffuclt times like COVID. I don't see why it wouldn't work again during the recession we are spiralling towards.

Just in case anyone isn't aware and hasn't signed it, Heather McPherson is also the MP who backed petition e-6619, which calls upon the federal government to send peacekeeping forces into Gaza.

A petition requires MP support to be posted, and 500 signatures to be tabled and warrant an official response from the federal government. This petition has 15k+ signatures and is still open until July 26. Don't forget to sign it if you haven't already!

She's been taking a lot of cues from him these last few months. Truly scummy.

Its a mixed bag here, but many people do not. Commuters usually do, but people riding for fun or not going long distances don't tend to. On my commute I see a lot of people with actual motorcycle or dirtbike helmets though, which I hope to get one day since I only have a bike helmet.

When I visited Mexico City earlier this year I was horrified to see people riding scooters with no protection through the insane traffic there. People there don't even stop for pedestrians, I cant imagine how dangerous it'd be to ride a scooter or bike.

Anyway, the solution is more tarmac in the Commons dedicated to slow speed vehicles, preferably that isn't carved out of the <5% we dedicate to pedestrians.

Sorry I'm confused, does this part mean you have been hit while driving a slow speed vehicle (I assume like a mobility scooter)?

Or have you just had the worst luck ever and been hit that many times as a pedestrian?

My scooter has an odometer. I've travelled 1593 km over a year and a bit. I've had about 4 near-misses which resulted in little or no injury and 1 serious accident that resulted in a bad but not severe injury (hematoma and long-lasting muscle strain, I didn't go to the doctor but I suspect it might've been a low grade tear). The bad accident was me crashing into a fence, because I got distracted by dogs.

I think I'm a bit more clumsy than the average rider, but y'all can have my data to start the research.

It does but flying a plane around and forcing a bunch of detours and even more flights seems like an awful way to make a point about protecting the environment. That's like pissing in a pool to complain about how dirty the pool is.

Abolish the Indian act.

Had me in the first half, not gonna lie.

Oh, was Peter Julian voted out this last election? Damn I don't live there anymore but that's a shame.

When I go to people's houses, their toilet paper area never seems to have as much of that goddamn dust all over the place. Is it my toilet paper? I swear even when I clean, there's a film of that stuff that comes up all over the toilet and behind the toilet. Am I doing something wrong?

Edit: I have a bidet. You still need to dry your ass and vulva with a bidet. Guests still want toilet paper. Now I'm more concerned - do y'all not have toilet paper just because you have a bidet?? It's not safe to leave your ass moist!

Sounds like it's a brand issue though but my partner is unwilling to switch from the ultra soft whatever we have so I guess I'm SOL.
