Asking me a question is far left

Those odds are getting worse.

We're all a hive mind anyways apparently. Join us. Become one with the far left.

I wasn't implying either of them, wasn't aware they claimed that title.

I said "far left" as there's many lefties on this site who aren't on the extreme, just as there's righties who aren't Yoho. I'm left/centre myself and have historically been a Liberal supporter (unit last election).
Perhaps I shouldn't have used that term, I didn't realize it was so loaded.

…who are the ones on the extreme and why do they tell you not to use Twitter

I was just kidding, as I thought it was pretty funny that you said "far left posters" and Rube was right there as though you'd said "Beetlejuice" three times in succession.

Yes... questioning the fascist ideology is incredibly far left.

Did... did you miss that day in school?

I know this isn't politics, but is is about Canada wide topic.

Canada's major food companies say they care about animal welfare. Here's how they actually perform

Annual Mercy for Animals report spotlights cage-free eggs, crate-free pork

https://www.cbc.ca/news/science/merc...card-1.7006954

Ikea, which has cafes in its stores, scored the highest among restaurants, with 100 per cent cage-free eggs, 100 per cent crate-free pork and a score of 85 per cent on the welfare of chicken raised for meat. Chipotle and A&W Canada also scored highly, with the latter being recognized for achieving 100 per cent crate-free pork.

Foodtastic, the parent company of Milestones, and the Pita Pit, received a score of zero for failing to publish any animal welfare policies even though some of its brands have committed to them.


There are cage-free systems that work extremely well and producers get better and better at running them once they have some experience, she said.

But regardless, they do cost more than conventional egg, pork and chicken production.

"And so I think you need a collective agreement from everybody," she said, "every stakeholder, including the people who are buying those products, to be willing to pay more for them."

So much for Ontario not caring about Dumb Smith and AB politics.....

Just tie PP's relationship to Boobbus in an attack ad and poof! No more 97% chance of a Con majority gov't. They'll prob lose Northern Ontario lol

Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland says she will meet with her provincial and territorial counterparts to discuss Alberta's proposal to pull the province out of the Canada Pension Plan.

Freeland was asked about a potential meeting during a press conference on Wednesday, after Ontario's Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy wrote to her requesting an "urgent meeting" of finance ministers to address Alberta's proposal.

I didn’t realize there was an election called and this is what the Liberals are campaigning on.

But you were so vehement that other Canadians didn't care about AB politics. kinda wrong... just a little bit! hahahah

and the Libs deserve to lose if they don't campaign on this once an election is called.

Would i be correct to assume this new bodily autonomy thing the cons have going extends to abortion as well?

fat chance of that happening for many of their MP's.

Source for this? Or just spreading misinformation?

I stand by what I said.

I also hope you volunteer for the Liberals, and somehow, become their campaign manager.

you don't think it's a bit of a joke that many of the CPC MP's who oppose a woman's right to abortion all of a sudden want bodily autonomy for vaccines?

Here are all the anti-abortion MPs in Canada

https://dailyhive.com/vancouver/abor...n-pro-life-mps

just last year 70% of the CPC MP's were listed as persons who don't like a woman having autonomy over their body, including Poilievre.

Maybe they only care about what goes in but not what comes out.

I don’t know why the government in power just doesn’t make it law that abortions be allowed. They have the power to do that.

Bill C-278 proposed by the CPC, opposes all vaccine mandates.

So the question was, if bodily autonomy is that important to them, does it also apply to abortion.

Pretty straight forward. Not sure why you go directly to the misinformation dog whistle. Opps, guess I answered it myself.
