Honestly I make the same assumption about a lot of his positions. Much of what he says or suggests policy wise doesn’t hold up if you dig into it. So why say it in the first place?
Most of the platform is being built on people being angry and not understanding the systems that are being talked about.
From that perspective it makes sense that they need to continue to feed lies, half-truths and other nonsense to keep people angry.
My assumption is that this angle is the easiest to get people to be angry about. Most of his platform is getting people angry about things that don’t exist or excited about solutions that won’t solve anything. IMO getting people to be angry about a leadership change is more of the same.

On one hand I think it’s ok for rental prices to go up as device prices increase. But that should never happen after a customer has a device, at that point the device price was already locked in. If they rent an additional device? Sure that one could cost more, but not the existing ones
Honestly I would love to see laws that make rental units without the option to purchase illegal. (With appropriate limits on how much the purchase option costs)
I agree that there may need to be better systems in place, but I’m not still convinced that the sitting government should have much direct control over it.
In the Han Dong case as you said he’s now an independent and is unlikely to be re-elected. If there were a better official process by elections Canada or the RCMP ideally a byelection could have been called to replace him.
I just also worry that if that procedure is initiated by the government rather than a third party it could also be abused by a sitting government to force by-elections in favorable ridings to potentially boost seats.
I just struggle with all the criticism because no one is suggesting Elections Canada be beefed up to better handle this, they are instead suggesting that the Liberal government should be doing something. while it could be indirectly assumed that people are asking the Liberal government to pass legislation to reform elections Canada, this is a minority government, any party can table legislation that would aim at doing just that. As far as I know no party has suggested doing that.
Alternatively it could be assumed that the ask is for a minority government have the ability to expell elected MPs, which of course is not something that should be possible. What if a majority vote could expell elected MPs? What would prevent a majority government from expelling the entire opposition party?
None of this feels great 😞
So these are two different things right? Election interference is one thing, but MPs being compromised by a foreign government is another different thing.
The report you’re mentioning about the 2019 and 2021 election interference not impacting the results was not a statement from the government but from third party review. I would agree that that third party review should have been initiated by elections Canada, but I don’t think that the acting government should have had more involvement in that process, I think it should have had less.
When it comes to compromised MPs, it’s more nuanced. If there is hard proof that an MP is compromised, then there is good reason to assume the investigation is over and that the information can be made public (and if they broke a law they should be held accountable by the courts). But if there is only strong suspicion that an MP is compromised that shouldn’t be made public, but I think it does fall onto the leader of the party to make the call on what to do. The trouble is we’re working with information that is part of an active investigation. It’s not a good idea to let an governing party expell MPs from other parties on the grounds of them being involved in an active investigation, that to me sets a dangerous precedent that could be exploited by a governing party to expell rival MPs via baseless investigations that would not hold up in court.
I haven’t seen anything that suggests that the Liberal party is mishandling election interference matters that fall under their control.
But election interference related things are not something that the acting government should have influence over. Elections Canada is independent and should be handling anything creditable, and the legal system should be capable of handling any prosecuting.
I strongly stongly stongly believe that the government should not be able to directly influence anything that can change election results.
Do you think an acting government should be the one who sets the bar on what foreign interference is? That sounds like a huge conflict of interest. What’s wrong with leaving it to the courts to decide?
That’s what the investigation is. And that’s happening. All parties with the correct access can access that information. What accountability isn’t happening?
I must have missed the part where there was definitive evidence that anyone was compromised. I thought this was still an investigation.
If this has progressed to the stage that the evidence is strong enough than sure the names should be released, but I didn’t think the investigation was at that point.
The alternative is the list of names is released and then it later comes out that a few names were actually innocent but it’s too late to take it back because that incorrect news being public will have ruined their chances or reelection.
If gamers weren’t so against it, honestly NFTs could actually be that thing.
Of course it will. The low rates are only in some ways part of what caused the problem.
The problem on a whole is going to continue until either municipalities start to allow higher density construction or the provinces step in and force municipalities to stop putting up red tape.
Any one who assumes that another party is going to blanket support a non-confidence vote doesn’t understand how minority governments work.
These are times when other parties have the leverage to influence what bills are being passed.
If things got bad enough that no other parties agreed with direction then ya we would be heading to vote, but realistically things aren’t that bad right now, they could always be better, but it’s not bad enough to just throw away leverage.
I looked it up and it seems like the survival rate of new businesses is about 78% in the US.
The first year seems to be the hardest and each year after that survival rates get better and better.
This data suggests that after 10 years nearly 35% of business are still in business.
How many new business fail?
That’s not a reasonable assumption at all. Everything costs more today than it did 2 years ago, so it’s very likely their expenses are higher than it was before.
It’s also possible that their profits are way up, but the data you showed doesn’t prove that at all.
That image shows revenue not profit
Dental care, housing deals with cities and the fall back carbon pricing were all done dispite provincial pushback (as far as I’m aware).
The only one where they worked with the provinces was the daycare, and that took like 18 months for provinces to actually agree on and even today provinces like Ontario continue to drag their feet on.
From what I’ve seen over the last 3-5 years, the provinces have very little interest in actively working constructively with the feds.
I don’t know what the current status of the healthcare chats are, but a few years ago the feds were willing to help push additional funding into the provincial healthcare systems, but the provinces needed to agree to terms (I believe the terms were around the money needing to be spent on the public healthcare system and not working towards privatization). as far as I know the talks never went anywhere, and healthcare systems are still underfunded.
What part of this change changes that? These locations are setup so that they are close to the people who need them, shutting down the locations doesn’t stop the usage, it just pushes it to happen in less safe spaces
One thing to consider with NFS is how stable your network is.
I’ve moved away from storing application files on my NAS and instead I store them locally where I run the application.
For things like jellyfin media or paperless files they can stay on the NAS and be accessed via NFS, but the config, db and other files the apps create as part of their operation, things can get into a bad state if the network drops at an unexpected time.
Instead I setup backup cronjobs that backup those files to the NAS nightly.
I agree with the other commenters regarding using the NFS share mounting right in docker compose. It does work great once you get it working.
