Canaconda@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ml•Carney is ‘Elbows Up’ Against Women and Gender Equality11·14 hours agoI didn’t even know the NDP had a blog. Probably the last time I’ll read it. NDP have focus grouped themselves out of relevance.
Canaconda@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•During a recent UN meeting in Ottawa, employees of an oil company “formed a ring” around a scientist to prevent her from moving. At another event in Ottawa, she was harassed8·15 hours agoI grew up in churches that eventually went full MAGA. A LOT of them want a literal theocracy where ‘gods law’ is the law of the land. They also believe political leaders are put in place by either god or the devil. The conflation of divine will is biblical as far as they are concerned.
They also have a cultural agenda of raising people to participate and influence politics.
The real failure is the inability to prevent the church from re-taking over the state.
This is the catholic church all over again… just with teen pageant models instead of choir boys.

Because they believe in that context god will grant them supremacy.

Picket signs and passion are good… but we need some stoic fofo (fuck off or find out) energy in the movement.
So what does your employment contract say?
Canaconda@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ml•Carney is ‘Elbows Up’ Against Women and Gender Equality21·17 hours agoThis is just identity politics dressed up as progressivism.
These social service cuts go far beyond WAGE. Meanwhile disabled people and other demographics have been left in the cold.
NDP needs to use their platform better. Identity politics and turning a national unity slogan into divisive rhetoric undermines their credibility as a whole.
Stop pointing fingers and start talking solutions.

Canaconda@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•York Region paramedic fired over Israel comments speaks out, wants to know if politicians played role14·5 days ago“In the last two years, Israel has bombed Palestine, Yemen, Lebanon, Syria and now Iran. They have been occupying Palestine for 75+ years. They are luring starving Palestinian children to their concentration camp food aid depots so they can snipe them dead,” Grzejszczak posted on Facebook on June 19.
“Any union or other organization that doesn’t fight this is choosing to stay silent during genocide.”
Speaking truth to power? Not on their watch. Also interesting they choose to attack a woman over this.
Getting fired over this is has to be illegal. If it isn’t than we got some phone calls to make
Canaconda@lemmy.cato No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Whatever happened to the blockchain/smart contract 'revolution' we were told about?2·6 days agoWell the value of the USD is based on the bond market which is essentially based on USA’s GDP.
I’m not saying stable coins don’t exist. I’m explaining the fundamental valuation difference between crypto and national currencies.
Also traded /= transacted. In the context of OPs question, the existence of stable coins has not pushed the needle on crypto from a trading asset to liquid transactable colloquial currency.

It’s actively transforming global agriculture. While the USA failed to innovate Canada has integrated blockchain into it’s agricultural sector to facilitate unparalleled traceability.

Blockchain transactions are painfully slow compared to other payment processers. BTC is only 7 transactions a second. VISA handles 65,000 transactions per second. That’s one of the major reasons we’re not seeing more widespread adoption.

Crypto currency isn’t backed by a nation’s GDP; which is effectively the mechanism that gives money value. However USA just passed laws recategorizing crypto issuers as financial institutions; that must comply with regulations such as having a % of their liabilities(crypto) as collateral (Cash). So we shall see where things go.

Sir this is for shitposting. Please take your comedy gold elsewhere.

If you want to argue that I’m calling fraud laundering than fine youre correct. But I think you’re confusing the cup and ball game I’m describing for a washing machine.
With trump, you pay him 100k dirty money, he gives you back 120k in clean money, and is happy because you said he was the best.
No you build him 100k of work which he doesn’t pay you for. You pay your (illegal) workers dirty cash under the table. Insurance company pays you the 60% of the contract value.
It’s a quid quo pro.
Just keep spinning up new shell corps with a different henchman owner on paper. That’s IF the rates get too high. The goal is to keep your goons paid so they can earn you money in other illegal ways.
Would explain how trump keeps finding companies willing to get stiffed by him.
Also who knows if he had an insurance broker in on it.
America was colonized on the principles of not being taxed by a king and not being told how many wives you can have by a pope.
The separation of church and state was a lofty ideal, but never a realistic one given who moved to America.
