Fascinating, apparently Coffee Time can't find a single person in Canada who wants to manage a coffee shop for $62/hr!

Man that “y” makes all the difference

Canada’s housing crisis didn’t just “happen.” They juiced population growth, watched prices and rents explode Then used CMHC and friendly academics to pin it all on cities and zoning instead of their own policies

Average condo rents in the Toronto area are down 11% from the peak

Most people know that they should go vegan but they are too selfish to change

Translation: It's time for you to have less, so billionaires can hoard more.

Student unemployment in Ottawa is sitting around 20%, with endless stories about young people handing out hundreds of resumes and getting nowhere. And yet there are hundreds of LMIA requests for food service, admin assistants, and landscapers. What are we doing, Canada?

400K+ people are still immigrating to 🇨🇦 each year Our population will dip slightly as 🇨🇦 ends the exploitation of international students That's a good decision - using students as cheap labour was wrong And no, we still can’t build enough homes for 1.3M new people a year

Canadians have been sold the same myth: That if cities just got out of the way and let builders build, build, build, prices would fall, rents would drop, and affordability would return. But now that prices are finally softening, we’re seeing what really happens. 🧵

It’s 2025. We need to stop: 🐳 Supporting Seaworld 🐷 Eating animals 🦀 Boiling animals alive 🦁 Killing animals for trophies 🦊 Hunting 🐣 Eating eggs 🐮 Drinking cow milk 🐯 Wearing animals 🐘 Supporting circuses 🐭 Testing on animals 🌱 Pretending plants feel pain

My hot take is that Dyson vacuums are not for serious vacuumers. Battery is garbage, filter is garbage. Canister too small. Absolute joke of a cleaning tool.

I’m eating lab grown meat the second it’s mass market ready. It’s biologically identical to animal meat and will reduce suffering more than any technology in the history of our planet as long as enough people switch over from factory farmed meats.

Not sure why this isn't everyone's reaction to learning that we can now create meat/seafood without animal suffering, with fewer resources & environmental impact, with lower risk of foodborne illness & zoonotic disease, with tunable nutrition, etc

The internet unites in outrage when someone slaughters a majestic jungle animal. Yet billions of sentient, emotionally and intellectually complex animals are tortured by industrialized factory farms. Here's Dwarkesh Patel with Lewis Bollard on how to help improve conditions:

Environmentalists who aren't promoting a plant-based diet are deeply unserious about protecting the environment.

One of my more right wing opinions and one that I think ought to be common sense: if someone breaks into your house, all bets should, as a rule, be off.

Cultivated meatballs, bacon, and salami made without animal slaughter will soon be sold in U.S. grocery stores for the first time (one Sprouts market in Oakland). The pig that donated the cells is still alive, living happily in upstate NY: sf.gazetteer.co/some-pig

Pierre Poilievre should promise to cancel the temporary foreign workers program now and he will get a boost in the polls because almost everyone wants it end

Day 3 of posting jobwatchcanada.com/jobs data! Vancouver Unemployment: 7.7% BC Youth Unemployment: 12.1% But a Fatburger in the area wants to fill a job with a temporary foreign worker for $34.65/hr and the Liberals are going to let them! Follow for daily updates! 😒🆘

You may have seen this Tim Horton's trying to hire a TFW and claiming they can't find anyone in Canada who wants to be a manager for $36/hr. These jobs are supposed to be posted on Job Bank before applying for an LMIA, but the application email address is an immigration agency:
