Haha just kidding. It was all to make college execs, quick service franchisees and property speculators super wealthy. Canada doesn’t have a real economy.
So if the point of unchecked work-study student visas in Canada was to bolster our community college system and we aren’t sharing Canadian expertise globally or what ever anymore then can’t we fully fund domestic students now?

The backlash to ABC/Disney canceling Kimmel has been swift, and severe. The whole episode underscores something I've been blogging about for a while: A lot of powerful people just don’t realize how unpopular Trump is

A lot of people just don’t realize how unpopular Trump is
The backlash to ABC/Disney canceling Kimmel shows why it's important for businesses and the public to understand that two-thirds of Americans are not Trump voters

Maybe it's just me but I think that the #HamOnt coliseum sponsored by a bank that reported a profit of $3.34 billion *in the third-quarter alone*, should be compelled to pay its workers a living wage, @mayorandreahorwath.bsky.social @cameronkroetsch.bsky.social.

"Pay rates start at $17.60 per hour"
Which is $3.70 less than what the Ontario Living Wage Network says is a living wage in #HamOnt, where over 2000 people are now unhoused!

As an early millennial gay man I missed the AIDS holocaust by like 24 months. But I consider the survivors some of the toughest and most realistic MFers out there. Talks with them have been instructed.
people often ask what’s wrong with gen x, and, like, there are a lot of answers, but i think the AIDS epidemic and the specific people it wiped out is probably an under discussed contributor to the bomber with red dots diagram

"The one thing an abuser cannot abide is something that interferes with his ongoing favorable self-regard. An abuser can never do wrong. He can only be wronged. An abuser always has to be both the hero and the victim of his own story. An abuser will always try to impose his reality upon reality."
This week I dug deep into the Paradox of Tolerance.
We might hope still to build a new house to replace the one abusive bullies are burning down, after centuries of decades of being enabled in the name of civility.
If we do, the new house will need new locks.

What the public needs to understand is the "unpaid work" aka "Block time" pay model was negotiated by the union in return for pay guarantee. In other words if the flight is cancelled and there is no re assignment they go home with full pay.
