Aspartame 'possible' carcinogen, WHO says | Winnipeg Free Press
IIRC, meat and sunshine have a more severe rating than aspartame.....
This is fear mongering. Nothing's changed.

People shouldn't be getting their news from places that manipulate algorithms to prevent you from seeing a full spectrum of information anyways.
This is a good thing for Canadians, even if it seems inconvenient ATM.

Not sure if you're failing at Dad jokes or just generally being pedantic but this isn't helpful or funny. Take that shit over to Reddit if you must be that way.

If Georgia goes Blue in the next election, clearly there's voter fraud that Florida will need to investigate for the sake of the Union.
Nothing funny about the Governors commitment to democracy here.
S/ just because there are really stupid people who actually believe that shit.

Cops refuse to cooperate with investigations

The Union in Winnipeg is powerful enough to bankrupt the City not only morally but financially as well so I'd say ya.
They also cover up for drunk driving cops who murder civilians and keep abusive cops on the rolls but that's standard right?

Make Crocs acceptable to wear at all times. Is that really too much to ask?
I saw a guy wearing bright blue ones covered in charms not long ago while out for dinner at one of the top 100 places in the country and thought "ya, that guy looks comfy af, I bet he's loving this meal" and wanted to feel that way.

As tension with premiers grows, Guilbeault promises Ottawa won’t back down on clean energy policy
It's almost like these people want to act like they haven't had notice this is coming. The entire point is to phase out infrastructure that isn't relevant anymore.
Oil and gas infrastructure is becoming irrelevant quickly. Adapt, evolve or die.

UoT study: Downtown Vancouver has not recovered to pre-COVID activity levels, at 46% of baseline levels
Reply in thread
I was in Vancouver for the first time a few weeks ago. It was bustling, had to make reservations at the restaurant's we wanted to eat at and noted how active Stanley park was. Granville Island was packed.
If it were any busier I wouldn't have enjoyed it as much.

Because in the past when I've lived in places that have had this happen, the situation grows rapidly and the park near my house became unusable for the neighborhood. If I start to see this trending in that direction, I will absolutely be contacting the City Councilor as well as the police to prevent it from escalating. I'm not willing to have my neighborhood get turned into an encampment, and if you think i'm a bastard for that, I'm fine with that.
I work with a homeless shelter in town, they are aware of his location- I saw him up on their board the last time I was there. That means he's been offered assistance and has declined it. That is often because of drug usage issues, even though this shelter doesn't require you to be sober to use it.

It somewhat seems that people who have not been victims of the devastation causes by the expansion of homeless encampments want those that have been to stay quiet. My brother gets woken up multiple times a week because someone lights a fire under the bridge next to his apartment building. I had to leave a once wonderful neighborhood because of needles at the playground, and an explosion of property crime and violence. At some point, the safety of the general public needs to be taken into account, and when fire and needles enter the picture, I'm comfortable in stating that's the time.

Construction labour crunch leaves Canada in need of boosting ranks of home builders

There really isn't. We build through the winter in Winnipeg and it's miserable. A union carpenter can make 100k with a bit of overtime though so some guys will keep signing up....but not enough of them.

According to some people here, you're a terrible person for not just letting these people come into your home and giving them all your food and money.
I feel like there's a whole lot of people in this thread that don't have a f****** clue what it's like to be involved with this unfortunate segment of society.

One of the contestants is a guy I know from when he was a kid. He grew up with my brother and is a really great guy. I hope he does well, but still won't watch that crap lol.
Calgary's library is phenomenal though, definitely worth showcasing and something to check out when you are there.
