You’re making a false connection there, as you well know. Canada has the same unelected head of state and we’re not stumbling from crisis to crisis because of it, and neither is the UK. The latter suffers from shite elected government leaderships.

For Chinese makes, certainly. But they’re increasingly not buying imported vehicles, while stealing tech from any foreign firms like Tesla that set up shop in China, and thus their market is increasingly less relevant to the rest of us.

I hope I have this much energy (or Red Bull access) when I’m 80.

If they keep rocking the boat the Chinese are going to get blocked from the North American and EU markets for EVs, batteries and minerals/components. Their domestic market and economy is a ponzi scheme, and Africa and LATAM can only buy so much.

Looks like Canada and Ontario are going to benefit big from Biden's Build America, Buy America initiative. https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/hybrids-evs/electric-cars-plug-in-hybrids-that-qualify-for-tax-credits-a7820795671/ "To qualify for the first $3,750, a portion of a vehicle’s...

No.... the fool provides the money. Trump's "investors" are the fools, not Trump. He's the crook, and that's how you attain such wealth.

I didn't know you could take VIA to Parry Sound. Four and half hours, https://www.viarail.ca/en/plan/train-schedules?tsiDs=TRTO&tsiAs=SPAR&tsiDate=2024-05-22 Still better than 3 hours in the car. How regular is this service throughout the year?

I suppose my better question would be, why does Sudbury have two train stations located a mere 9km apart? Your post above explains this. https://maps.app.goo.gl/u65EJBVYHt2aNRzu6

Why are VIA at Sudbury and Sudbury Junction not connected?

All true, but he knows how to run and profit from a scam. Donald just made $1 billion on the backs of his idiot MAGA sheep. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2024/apr/24/trump-media-bonue

This sums it up nicely. https://www.ausa.org/publications/russo-ukrainian-war-strategic-assessment-two-years-conflict Russia's strategic ends can be summarized as: fracture the Ukrainian state—politically, territorially and culturally; maintain sufficient territorial acquisitions to support a...

https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/senate-hold-key-test-vote-ukraine-aid-israel-funding-tiktok-ban-rcna148685 Nice! And meanwhile Ottawa dithers on further lethal aid to Ukraine. Trudeau; please send all of our Leopard 2s and ARVs, half of our M113 APCs and LAV IIIs, every single 155mm...

If you’re an evangelical prolifer a total ban makes sense. If the life of the fetus is all that matters, it thus doesn’t matter if the future mother was impregnated through rape or incest, or even if her own health is at risk. It makes no sense to make exceptions. So, kudos for consistency...

It’s shameful. Those historically designated houses are owned by the city and I believe intended to be operated by Dixon Hall as affordable or supportive housing. But no construction has taken place for over three years now.

When you live downtown east like I do, you soon realize there's a huge industrial complex built around the homeless, with hundreds of workers dependent on the homeless for their careers, relevance and salaries. You don't get to be the $325k head of Dixon Hall, $200k head of the Sally Ann...

But keeping its riders safe from the dangerously insane or otherwise violent people loitering on its system? No worries. As for the doors, it's so frustration when I'm onboard the streetcar and I'm mentally willing the doors to close so we can get going, but no, by the time they creep almost...

No. I'd leave the bicycle and walking shoes at home and take my car. That's what the designers of that road always intended me to do. If the powers that be now want me to cycle or even walk this road they need to redesign it.

We might be referring back to this claim throughout the first 2-3 years after it opens. That said, I hope you're right.

There's a fix for that. Doors that closed with gusto.
