Simply repeating “productivity”/”nation-building” isn’t enough. There are many ways to improve productivity and to build a nation. Why these choices and not others?
Canadians are owed explanations and a debate over alternatives. Esp when youth and the most vulnerable are being asked to “sacrifice.”

Casual. I love kitsch and dive, too. Not much spare time around the conference schedule but also restaurant suggestion built around recommended wanders. I'm by the central library.

If I recall correctly from model I've seen elsewhere, carshare company pays the city for a permit similar to a residential on-steet parking permit that allows it to exceed the posted time limit (but bigger zone than normal residential permit).

I know I’ve been posting a lot about this, but it’s telling of how this government looks at society that at the very moment Mark Carney can’t stop talking about nation-building projects, he’s throwing the biggest nationwide service-delivery network on the scrap heap because it doesn’t make money.

The Canteen and Side Hustle just off the ferry on the Dartmouth side were both highlights of my trip and you get to ride the ferry.

Still true.
I can't convince my brain to not pronounce Bluesky like brewsky.
