Hilarious that we're now in a Canada where 1) there's a marginal separatist movement in Alberta and 2) Edmonton could win the first Stanley Cup in 32 years for Canada.

Incidentally, I've seriously considered applying to Nav Canada to be a controller, but you have to be flexible to move anywhere in the country, and are unlikely to qualify for an airport like YVR or Area Control Center like Surrey for several years. www.navcanada.ca/en/careers/a...

The Nav Canada ATC shortages around YVR have been worsening each summer since the pandemic travel rebound. Many days we call up for a slot for our NASP patrol flight to return and ATC has one 12-minute window they can take us all day, if anything at all. Hugely restrictive.

This @ctvnewsvancouver.bsky.social endorsement of genocide is sickening. The word "Gaza" is somehow hateful - and the city should immediately scrub it out from view of Zionist protesters? www.ctvnews.ca/vancouver/ar...

The typical Canadian has a higher standard of living than the typical American. We are healthier, live 3 years longer, face much less inequality and are happier. These outcomes are not accidents. They reflect deliberate policy choices.” @jimbostanford.bsky.social on Canada’s GDP per capita:

An hour and a half to vote in the advance poll today at Holy Trinity Church in #vangran. Elections Canada seemed unprepared for the turnout, and the process is still entirely manual.

We do not need to balance the federal budget. We need to get more value for what we pay, and we need to spend more on health, housing and transit to reap the rewards of a more efficient economy. Austerity right now will bury us.

I've been asked to apologize and make a correction: The leader of His Majesty's Loyal Opposition in fact listens to John Philip Sousa marches on a Toshiba Gigabeat.

Of course he's not gonna do Nardwaur; we'd find out all he listens to are Sousa marches on a 2007 iPod Shuffle while envisioning his state visit as PM to Mar-a-Lago

I get that a lot of people will only see the threat when it happens to a white tourist, but she actually broke the law by working while on a tourist visa. Snatching and deporting valid visa-holding workers and students who have not broken a law is far beyond this.
