Since the Conservatives formed government, wage theft has has gotten worse. This means money stolen out of workers’ pockets due to corporate greed.
What’s worse is that the Ford Conservatives have allowed wage theft to unchecked by stopping proactive inspections and failing to recoup stolen wages.

This year, Canada’s new government has built crucial new partnerships throughout the world.
That means big new investments in Canadian industries, resources, and projects, and big new opportunities for Canadian workers and businesses.

I figure the reason dystopian fiction rarely shows how things got so bad is that it's mundane and incremental and boring and involved complacency and shrugs and rationalizations all along the way until it was too late. Kinda like now.

There was a 0.0 percent chance Rodgers was allowing himself to be the quarterback sacked for the record.
In retrospect, it's kind of funny considering the man he replaced straight-up fell down for Strahan.

Missing the wide open player for taking a shot at ‘his guy’. Only surprise was it wasn’t a throw into double coverage.

MAGA is going to incite so much hate against Somalians and Muslims that it'll inevitable lead to hate crimes and violence but it still won't bring down the price of groceries, lower Healthcare costs or help people get jobs. Also, the focus will go back on Trump pardoning fraudsters as well.

i don’t see how any of the benefits of chatgpt and other consumer-facing LLMs can possibly outweigh their incredible ability to induce suicides
Adam Raine’s life hurtled toward tragedy soon after he began talking with ChatGPT about homework. Analysis of his ChatGPT account shows how the chatbot became a confidant as he planned to end his life.
