My mother has cancer in Canada and it's next to impossible to get care. Doctors are overworked and overwhelmed. All this bleating about the wonders of socialized medicine comes from people who are either very healthy or very dishonest.

It would be easier for me to list the aspects of my education, comprising 4 degrees in Canada and the US, that weren't propaganda. Because about 90% of what I was taught absolutely was.

People using AI for "therapy" will lead to an explosion of smug narcissistic assholery. The AI will keep validating their petty grievances and they'll become even more insufferable.

Yes, the US is the nicest country. I was complimented today on my outfit by 6 random strangers at various points of the day. People are beyond sweet in small Midwestern towns.

I always speak at conferences but this is an excellent explanation. Speaking like you write is a rare skill. When I start speaking, people in the audience often turn back to see where the screen is because they can't believe I'm improvising.

There is no fad that UofT hasn't eagerly embraced. The funny thing is that they want a mature scholar in a field that they invented two minutes ago.

In Montreal's beautiful Old Port, we saw, in the middle of the day, a homeless man pull down his pants and empty his bowels. I didn't know how to explain why that was happening to my sheltered American 9-year-old. Maybe the linked account can help.
