Anyone has room for that if it’s not built in the style of American suburbs.

Also the tariffs against Canada are still in place, leaving Canada in a relatively isolated position compared to a couple of days ago. That doesn’t really fit the narrative.

Good point, though Tim Horton’s is owned by Restaurant Brands Intetnational, with headquarters in Toronto and Florida. RBI is in turn owned by shareholders, the largest of which is 3G capital, a Brazilian-American firm… so it’s complicated. Much American involvement, though!

At the risk of being pedantic, this would be an export tax. (But I think maybe it’s important to get these things right given how many people don’t seem to understand that a tariff is a tax on imports.)

Every trip you take

And every turn you make

Every time you brake

There are so many reasons to not buy from Amazon. Not just the dopamine-fueled consumerism. Not just the anti-union shenanigans. Not just Bezos buying and destroying the Washington Post, and supporting Trump. It’s an American company, and right now, that should be enough.

US citizens I hope you’re taking notes.

Good thing you don’t have to worry about that two-party system anymore!

You’re missing Narcissistic Personality Disorder. It’s the defining characteristic of the man.

The cost? The cost in increased congestion when cycling is made less safe? The cost in pollution? In human lives from increased road deaths? How about those costs, Doug? The costs that matter most?

In Totalitarian Canada, Canadian spelling metres you!

Streetcars in Toronto are like this too. Cars are required to stop when the streetcar doors open; the needs of one driver do not outweigh the needs of the many passengers getting on and off. That said, yes, you should look before you step down onto the street.

Yes, but also narcissistic personality disorder.

“Your sound card works perfectly.”

True, but that was literally a hundred years ago.

Tell that to the copyright lawyers

“These are horrible, terrible companies that are corrupting society, and we trust them completely.”

I don’t think the CMA has much power over this. Medical school and residency spots are controlled by provincial governments, and even the provincial medical associations exist at the will of provincial governments. I’m not saying you’re wrong that this might be the CRA’stake, but I don’t see much of a causal relationship there.

Much more immediate, I think, is the unwillingness of (more or less conservative, and as you point out, neoliberal) governments to fund medical schools and residencies because the impact on voters would take almost a decade, which is much longer than an election cycle.

I hate how these articles always dance around the main issue. Yes, team-based care is great. But what we really need is to urgently train thousands of family doctors and nurse practitioners. We have a massive shortage and it’s only getting worse. But nobody wants to pay for it, and even lefty outlets like The Walrus aren’t calling for urgent funding. I dread what this is going to look like in ten years.
