In the wake of the Panama Papers scandal, Kevin O'Leary said he'd take his marbles and leave if Canada tried to reduce the tax shelters that protect the rich from paying their fair share.

We are extremely concerned Ukraine will be able to use on us the same type of weapons we've been using on them for 3 years and 8 months.
It isn't an escalation when we do it.

To state the obvious:
• As a BC Con staffer Lindsay Shepherd was fully aware Dallas Brodie was ejected from BCCons for airing the same toxic opinion & she knew what would follow
• This feels like collusion with Brodie and/or an application to OneBC
• Her mat leave sob story = crybully

Here is the audio recording of Lindsay Shepherd getting fired by the BC Conservative Party
For those keeping track (*leans back in rocking chair whilst reflecting on old memories*) this is now the second time Lindsay Shepherd has recorded her employer and then released the recording publicly

imagine telling taylor goddamn swift, with a straight face, that she should perform for free because the exposure is valuable
Apparently the NFL wanted her show for free, and thought the value of it for her was the exposure. The NFL has been getting free exposure from Taylor, just from her going to her fiancés games, and she is getting death threats for it.

The most amazing part of this is that the far right didn't target her because she celebrated Kirk's death or even threw his own words back at them.
She merely expressed a well-founded worry that his murder might inspire the far right to greater violence and they apparently took that as a challenge.

Global News laid off 26 journalists in B.C. and Alberta today.
In B.C. the layoffs include virtually all of the online team, along with many others.
The business is increasingly cruel, and the hollowing out of newsrooms providing fair and reliable information continues to suck.
