We have a third party, the NDP, but the best election result they've gotten is being the official opposition. The Liberals are supposed to be the "center" party, but somehow when we're pissed at them the country almost always goes right rather than left.

The list of items in the second round of retaliatory tariffs was supposed to go up for public comment for 21 days before it kicked in; the government should go ahead with the comment period while Trump's tariffs are paused so all the tariffs can be implemented immediately if Trump's tariffs get unpaused.

They should start now. Countries should cut off trading with the US once Trump starts making threats in their direction, instead of waiting for him to make up his mind and do something. He's too used to there not being any consequences.

Reminder that Bethesda is owned by Microsoft, the company that insists it's going to end support for Windows 10 in October and wants everyone to move to Windows 11, which doesn't officially support perfectly functional but somewhat old CPUs.
