I’m betting they’ll install HEPA air filtration in industrial poultry farms before they install them in your workplace 😓 #H5N1

🚨 Jim Flaherty’s former chief of staff calls out Poilievre’s wife for trying to diminish the role of Carney during the 2008 financial crisis…and it is mic-drop worthy.

You can make almost 100 eBikes and 240 eBike batteries for the same amount of materials as one stupid assed cybertruck. Average commute distance in Canada is 11.9km. You can do that in 30min on an eBike.
