Investing in coal power plants now is like Blockbuster Video doubling down on building new VHS-rental stores in an era of Netflix and other streaming services. It is a waste of Saskatchewan ratepayers’ and taxpayers’ money.

If more supply lowered rents, downtown Vancouver would be the cheapest market in North America.

There's not really any evidence that more supply lowers prices because expensive condos get built replacing affordable rentals. Density=affordability is a myth that suits real estate developers.

I was brought up with an older German where English loan-words were pretty much unknown (other than "der Pullover" which no-one actually says in English).

It was a dreadful interview on the journalist's part (all 'what do say that people are saying' questions) and if he feels vindicated by 41% of the population voting for that, he doesn't know what a bad job he did.

My question is how with a straight face can Radio-Canada be running coverage with exactly one polling station in one riding in Newfoundland having reported? What is the point?

1. The federal govt has no jurisdiction to do this unless it can show a national emergency.
2. A landlord charging a fair rent and faced with increased expenses (property tax, heating) or new costs (overdue or emergency repairs) would have to absorb the loss. For how long?
