• Cries in Saskatchewan. -

The Sask Party have somehow maintained control out here for 17 years… It’s sad but I don’t foresee it changing. Us and Alberta are the home of the “F Trudeau” crowd.

I will yet again cast my ballot against them in an effort that feels about as meaningful as pissing into the wind. But I’ll still do it.

Oh look, another cop being “punished” with a paid vacation.

What about those parents whose precious children can do no wrong and when part of “the village” tries to discipline them for acting out, or tries to rescue them because they ran willy-nilly into traffic, the parent freaks out and threatens to sue the “helper” for daring to touch/talk to/look at their child the wrong way.

If you want “the village” to help, don’t freak out on them and then whine that you’ve got no help.

I’ve been looking for a new launcher. Though this one isn’t selling itself with no screenshots. I don’t use telegram, so I don’t know if there’s screenshots in there.

Edit: They posted screenshots in the Google Play page. Found them.

I’m using Voyager and everything’s been good for me.

You would be far better off speaking to one of those debt consolidation places than trying to juggle it around like that. I’m not sure where you are located, but hopefully there is one that can help.

I mean… No jobs? I wouldn’t want to rent to someone who had no job either. That’s an insane risk. Even as a Canadian citizen who was born here I would not expect someone to rent to me if I had no job.

Sounds good when you phrase it like the headline. But all they’ve done is trade coal for natural gas. So it’s still a carbon heavy power grid, just slightly better than coal.

I wasn’t aware that we all had to adhere to YOUR standards of which softwares are useful/needed.

Sometimes people just want something. Maybe it doesn’t align with what you want, but that doesn’t make it wrong.

Sask is, in fact, quite far behind.

This opinion piece fails to explain how inclusion is causing the problem. Correlation does not equal causation, but the link between inclusion and the test score is not elaborated on beyond a brief mention.

Why not both?

I use bypass paywalls clean on Mull by activating the Secret menu and choosing to install add-on from file. Works great for me.

Secret menu is in the About Mull page (tap on the logo 5 times) then back out to the settings pane to see some additional settings items added like install add-on from file.

How ironic. Alberta, the one complaining about the Feds imposing on “their jurisdiction” and then they go and impose all over the municipalities. The hypocrisy is ridiculous. They really are just in it for what they want. Screw the Feds, screw the cities, just let us be dictators! Ick.

Alternate headline: Local businesses learn about the phenomenon known as “tourism.”

All joking aside, I’m glad this helped out some smaller businesses.

If only the economics of whole countries was this simple.

Ahh I see the confusion, my original comment was more a remark on the fact that they are complaining about “stagnant” productivity, when wages are in a really poor place and probably contributing to the overall poor productivity. Because who wants to do more for less pay? I was not intending it to be a commentary agreeing that productivity increases wages, but rather it should be the other way around. If you want productive workers, then pay them to be productive!

The study you linked proves that there is significant wage inequality. The very first chart demonstrates that even though productivity has increased, wages have not kept up. This is exactly my point. I’m not sure if you were intending to agree with me, but your link is just further proof that wages are definitely not where they should be.

“Why should I work so hard for wages that don’t compensate me for said work?” Said every underpaid worker ever.

My place of employment has been cutting headcount for years and just expecting the existing employees to do the same, and more, work for no increase in pay. And they wonder why productivity suffers?! I am still only one person. I cannot possibly perform as well as 3 people. Maybe if you’d stop cutting headcount and focus on getting things done, we’d actually be productive.

Labour productivity has grown by 0.2 percent annually, on average, between early 2015 and the end of 2023.

…average weekly earnings have increased only 1.6 percent between January 2015 and January 2024, or less than 0.2 percent per year.

This sounds like productivity is commensurate with pay. Maybe instead of advocating for interest rates to drop (which has issues of its own), we should be advocating for proper pay raises?

Edit to add a note: This comment is intending to call them out about poor wages. If you want more productivity, then pay us for it! I’m sick of doing the work of 3 people with measly, if any, wage raises!

How extensive of editing are we talking? If you just need some of the more basic features, there is Paint.NET which is surprisingly useful for a lot more than you’d think. Definitely not as feature-rich as Photoshop though.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. But this article makes their idea sound like a magic bullet. But there is no magic bullet in this fight unfortunately.
