Artificial scarcity is the bane of humanity, and every single thing that profits off it should be free.
We also should abolish economies of profit and exploitation in general, but that's a natural consequence here.
Food is the most obvious example, but there are other things too.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Time for unions to stand together & refuse to allow the UCP to pick them off, one by one. They don't have enough cops to arrest everyone and this directly sets up revocation of rights from any group the UCP decides to target *cough* TRANS FOLKS *cough*
Become ungovernable!
Become ungovernable!
To recap:
-Bill 2 would mandate teachers back to work
-UCP will invoke Notwithstanding clause to ward off legal challenges
-teachers will work under UCP's last offer which they rejected
-teachers and ATA can be fined for any daily strike action

![[Scene is ANCIENT GREECE - where SOCRATES and PLATO and others are sitting round, thinking]
1
SOCRATES:
Plato..
PLATO:
Yes Socrates?
2
SOCRATES:
Can you tell me, are you human?
PLATO:
Why… yes, Socrates
3
SOCRATES:
And would you agree, Plato, that a human knows what a chariot is?
PLATO:
Um, yep
4
SOCRATES:
So you can tell me, then
5
[Socrates produces a papyrus, showing a drawing of the corner of a chariot wheel]
SOCRATES:
*Is that a chariot*?
6
PLATO:
Well
that’s more just a bit of wheel
7
SOCRATES:
So not a *chariot*.
PLATO:
No.
8
SOCRATES:
[Producing another papyrus with the full drawing of the chariot, chopped into boxes]
So if a man were challenged to “tap the boxes containing chariots to prove you’re human” when he was just trying to check his ClubCard points... *where could he tap*?
9
PLATO:
Well you can’t tap any of them really
10
SOCRATES:
So are we not human?
PLATO:
‘Spose not.

[Bleak pause]

PLATO:
I’ll get the hemlock

Yeah

The government is reducing service standards and Canada Post’s biggest advantage: its nationwide network.
This plan is about cutting back the postal service instead of investing to give it new revenue tools through things like postal banking. It’s shameful.
