You stay inside, use the bus if you absolutely need to get outside, and wear appropriate winter gear.
With snowstorms like today, no way I'm gonna use my car, even with winter tires. Way too risky of getting stuck somewhere, breaking on hidden ice where you might slip right into another car or worse(I've seen a car literally flipping down a small hill in front of me next to a highway a few years ago) , and you can't trust other drivers to drive carefully enough.

Yep! Proper winter clothes is the most important thing. Don't be that person that goes outside in the snow with sneakers and a light spring jacket.
Build a sick ass snowman and then stay inside and watch the Raptors game (do not watch hockey).
Ontario, It's Gabbo. Can we talk? We fucked up last time, but this, this is why we need to get that midlevel has dealer out of queens park. Please tell me we can do that next time. I'll even swallow a liberal government if need be.
Cheers.
Too bad nobody bothers to constantly hammer this point so the public can see it.
Bienvenue au Québec lol
You're actually kinda "lucky" that it's your first real snowstorm. They are rarer now due to climate change. When I was a kid, they were far more common and could start as early as November and we'd still have them in late March or even April.
And remember. Despite all of that their base is still 25-30% of the population... under an electoral system that only needs 35-40% for absolute power.
Still following the news for some reason because I guess I don't hate myself enough and the Liberals are planing to spend 12 billion on TMX and 20 billion on the Teck Frontier Mine.
What's 30 billion among oil loving friends?

I dunno. Liberals gonna Liberal.
Alberta doesn't even want the money.
This thing just seems like a trial balloon.
All the parties suck in their own way.
I didn't even notice he was banned again. It's like he never learned that once you're banned then it's easier to get banned the next time.
Has this been posted yet?
Yeah someone mentioned it earlier. It's actually worse than Ontario's public sector negotiated freeze which is surprising.
Alberta is the sneak preview to what's coming for Ontario.
They already paid out thousands of employees through early retirement incentives and negotiated 1% increases for the rest of the CBA. I guess we'll see how negotiations go when the current agreement is up, but if the shenanigans with teachers is any indication, you'd think they would want to consider avoiding more strikes.
Although if the public already thinks teachers are lazy and overpaid, I can't even imagine what they think of public servants.
Cutting funding for public advanced education institutions, while not cutting anything for Christian universities.
Someone should remind the Liberals these kind of handouts won't make Albertans like them any more than they do now. In fact, they may like the Liberals less because true Albertans pull themselves up by their bootstraps.
It also hurts them with people who would actually vote for them. It's so damn stupid. Wasting political capital with Albertans who would hate them even if they capitulated and gave them everything they wanted economical. Because after you satisfy one bullshit, they'll go "yeah well we don't like immigrants, do something about that too!"
I, for one, hope Ford continues to talk about how much he would vote for a fascist cretin like Trump, i'm sure it will do wonders for his popularity in Ontario.
An aside: The RCMP continues to be a blight on indigenous nations and people. Also journalists.
The day his approval numbers fall below Wynne's will be the 47th happiest day of my life.
Handouts for me, not for thee.

Everything about this is horrific.

Fragments of an interview with a law professor on the investment treaty with China from 2012.
It seems he predicted this shit 8 years ago based upon how much power Harper gave China over Canada.
Trudeau is forced to defend Chinese investors profits from the pipeline rather than the rights of Canadian citizens and its indigenous people.
The attack ads write themselves. Anything short of a Conservative blowout next provincial election will be a massive disappointment.
The orangeface thread made me remember that we have our very own cheetos
Obviously, his fake tan is much better than Donnie's.
When he becomes prime minister (face it, you're not getting a Liberal leader not from Québec), I can't wait to spam conservatives with "orange man bad!".

To think that if Rob Ford never ran for mayor this fucker wouldn't have come back from Chicago to claim the "family" council seat. He's an American through and through, he was just born Canadian.
We kept one American out(Scheer) but we are still stuck with this one.
More ex-lobbyists put in power, GOP style.
This isn't even the first trial balloon the Liberals have leaked to the media. Earlier on they were musing about something else:
The Liberals want to approve this so bad but they don't know how to do it without pissing off an incredible amount of people on every side. Accordingly they're testing out all sorts of ideas to get a feel for what the reactions are.
Here's a new one:
The full top 10 "non-essential" surgeries:
Abdominal hernias for adults (8,658)
Benign skin lesions (6,827)
Carpal tunnel syndrome (5,845)
Haemorrhoids surgery (2,835)
Adenoidectomy in conjunction with tonsillectomy (1,633)
Tonsillectomy in adults and children (1,106)
Trigger finger (1,106)
Sterilization for women (1,095)
Rhinosinusitis (1,033)
Breast reduction for women (1,011)
Remember your Conservative ABC's. Always Be Cutting. Its all part of their three step plan to kill Publicly Funded Healthcare in Canada.
A) Cut funding for services to reduce Services
B) Blame Public Healthcare for sucking
C) Privitizing Healthcare piece by piece because the private sector "fills a niche" and "can do it better"

Just curious where you got that number for it to be profitable?
Lmao. I've done one of these and could do one more if it didn't scare me haha. With a possibility of a third if I ever need it because of office work.
Thanks for funding them, BC.
