I am an atheist. It does not matter to me what religion people choose to follow or how they pray. Quebec "secular" laws are prejudice and un-Canadian. How does it hurt public education if people wear crosses or hijabs or choose to pray in a private room.

More education money going to the profits of private companies. Every time the Saskparty privatizes a public service money, good jobs, and/or service is lost. Overall detrimental to SK human economy.

So the Saskparty plan is working. Not sure why they did this but they did. It was a choice to change SIS payments from paying landlords and what we said would happen is happening. There is a way to house people and funnel money to Saskparty friends. But that would take intellect.

Why do people keep electing these morons. Of course the Saskparty govt has gone from surplus to deficit. They have NEVER had a surplus because they are idiots who know nothing about anything.

So what is the Canadian govt doing about this. CFIA makes growers in the Salinas area confirm their romaine is safe from EColi. We need to make sure this contaminated produce is not imported to Canada.

The EPA just approved new "forever chemical" pesticides for use on food like lettuce, broccoli, and potatoes.

They're creating new pathways for long lasting & potentially harmful PFAS to get into our food & environment.

THIS is how they're going to Make America Healthy Again?

Well then wouldn't the opposite be true. Since we have no rent control we should have an abundance of rentals. No that's not how it works. What we need is for the govt to fix and make available all the properties that are govt owned. But then no motel revenue for their MLAs so.....

It’s an interesting approach to provide clarity on a tanker ban while failing to meet with the Coastal First Nations despite repeated requests - the community that would be directly affected by any spill - while having dozens or more meetings with fossil fuel lobbyists, AB, Sask.

„Quiet, Piggy!“ Just think about that for a minute, and what it means to live in a time when a President can assault a woman in public like that without any consequences.
It‘s quite a testimony to the age of regression we live in.
