Welcome to .. everyone's world who's bothered to learn how the system works. Many don't get this far. It's a bit hard to accept at first but it's what we have to work with. That's why it's important to understand all the different opportunities to affect change. For example keeping track of different parties' leadership elections and voting in those. Or pestering your MP for what you want to see happen, like some folks here pester them for electoral reform. The same goes with provincial parties and elections. And municipal elections. And getting involved in any of those campaigns. And so on.

“we will continue with the design work necessary to begin removals as soon as possible should the decision uphold the legislation.”

What is this, no plans to go to the supreme court, no notwithstanding clause? Is this the same Ford government? Or was this just a publicity stunt to get through the election. 🥲

I'm afraid there's a uncomfortably high chance of this.

Don't be torn, have two stat voting days. If you elect me a PM I'll make it 3. I'll even throw in PR reform.

Just watch the surge being a wave to elect an expansionist collaborator.

I hope not but it's not nearly as improbable as I'd like.

Perhaps more to do with this. Google no longer has legal problems in the US under Trump.

These outlier polls give me the heebijeebies. Some friends are very calm looking at the "nicer" polls. I can't shake the feeling that they're missing some undercurrent.

I think there's more than that in mismanagement on the side of the German state, but these are definitely key elements.

So you're saying it's safe to use their DNS without worrying much about data collection? 😂 I like it.

Not exactly what you want but thought worth mentioning - Cash Passport. It's available at Canada Post locations. You can also buy single-use credit cards there. I think both require ID however so they're not suitable for anonymous purchases.

Some additional keywords on the tech behind this extended range capability:

... self-generated anode battery technology (which no longer uses traditional graphite anode material but allows elements to deposit on the current collector in metallic form, increasing volumetric energy density by 60% and gravimetric energy density by 50%)

...

Additionally, CATL's self-generated anode technology can be adapted to multiple material systems. For example, when paired with sodium-ion systems, the energy density can reach 350Wh/L; with phosphate systems, it can reach 680-780Wh/L; and with ternary systems, it can exceed 1000Wh/L.

Source

The source cites CATL, but this self-generating anode tech has apparently been studied for a while by more than CATL.

 

Linked National Post on purpose. Given their bias I believe they'd present the worst case scenario.

E: Apparently the article is from 2016 so the cost is likely higher today.

 

This is from the last month, not sure if it's been posted before. I heard about it today.

Can see accounts on pixelfed.social but I can't see any pics from them.

 

Some interesting data prior to the debate.

There's a significant room of undecided voters.

OLP is making gains.

Ford's Trump stunt is wearing off.

The tariffs aren't nearly a top issue.

If the OLP trend continues and ONDP-leaning voters go for Crombie's plea to vote OLP, Ford might get knocked down to a minority.

Watching how the numbers move post-debate and will post again.

The analysis in this report is based on results of a survey conducted from Thursday, February 6th to Thursday, February 13th, 2025

https://www.mainstreetresearch.ca/post/canada-national-poll-february-2025

 

Description: As U.S. President Donald Trump continues to propose absorbing Canada, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe disregards the threat — but says Canada needs to prioritize energy and food security to avoid putting itself in a 'vulnerable position,' and criticizes a 'lack of leadership' from the federal Liberal government.
