Only a fifth of Canadians younger than 50 plan on having kids: POLL
  • For sure, good call out, I think they just mean only 21% of people feel sure about wanting kids, and if we remove the age bias it goes to 26%. Honestly it would be more interesting to compare the categories to answers from 10, 20 or 30 years ago to have a better benchmark for how we could interperet this.

  • Thankfully Canada doesn't have this expectation of free school meals... and everything works fine

    My focus is on far more than kids, youre the one saying they dont need any help.

    And I'm posting so others dont fall for your BS. Always have been.

  • Read my response again, try both links.

    Where you live doesnt represent the whole country and vice versa

    Many schools run their own programs, PTAs do as well.

    https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/national-food-program-schools-explain-1.7160901

    Has background on what exists already in addition to forward looking proposals

    I agree that food banks are different than programs, again, read response in full

    And finally, nice dodge. Should we (society) feed hungry kids yes/no.

  • Well thats an easily disprovable lie err... lets be generous, error through ignorance.

    Canada food programs

    There are a number of food programs, including charities that recognize some kids starve over the summer when kids are not in school. E.g. the food banks Canada after the bell program.

    foodbankscanada.ca/after-the-bell

    So take the time to reflect on 1- your right to feed your kids is not impacted, these programs are for kids who have no food, but you can still provide your own meals

    2- without these programs some children starve

    3- is there any possible argument that supports the outcome where some kids starve.

    Canada sends rail workers to binding arbitration - "Justin Trudeau's actions are cowardly, anti-worker, & proof that he will always cave to corporate greed."
  • Awesome, who was the true leftist (or whatever affiliation) thats been working on this and supporting the workers so we can support them! Missed it, or clearly the media has been biased and not promoting their great work.

    Will the courts stop Doug Ford from banning safe consumption sites?
  • Did they not initially choose the sites near where there were the most problems. Like they said, if there are users doing it around the school, would you want to build a site there and have it contained, or build a site 2km away that doesnt reduce users near the school as much?

  • Interesting... that feels awfully short, is their reproductive cycle really that short... let me double check.

    Google: "Butterfly season UK" Answer from multiple sites: "March to October"

    Edit: 2 spelling mistakes.

    A cool guide to Epicurean Paradox
  • Wut?

    You keep repeating that the "scale of ethics" is incomparable but flip flop between "theyre not omnicient or omnipotent"... "but maybe they are"

    And what does "balance" have to do with ethical behaviour without you begging the question.

    "If we assume the existence of god, we have to assume a lot of other things too" and...........????

    Ultimately you spent a lot of time stating the cop-out argument of "its beyond us mere mortals". To which I can fairly respond... no.

  • The op is read as "should have some fundamental rights vs no rights" while you're turning the conversation into "all rights vs no rights" unless you intended to share another more nuanced point.

    Criminals typically have controls in place, and should, depending on the nature of the crime.
