Malfeasance
Malfeasance is an act that is illegal and causes physical or monetary harm to someone else. Malfeasance is intentional conduct that is wrongful or unlawful, especially by officials or public employees.
And yes, I see a great many good things done by Trudeau. But, you obviously disagree with me and I doubt anything either of us say will convince the other so we’ll just leave it at that.
Much as I do like Trudeau compared to Harper, it’s far past time for Trudeau’s actions to stand or fall on their own merits.
That said, the right-wing of Canadian politics is never going to beat Trudeau if they keep going with the insult and belittling route. They’ve done it in every election they’ve faced Trudeau in and lost every, single, time. The Conservatives should have won they last election, and blew it because the didn’t think Trudeau had the savvy or skill to come back from the blackface scandal. The truth is, Justin is an excellent political operator and usually one of the best there is in working social media.
Polievere only has a solid chance now due to a combination of voter fatigue (almost no PM makes it past 10 years) and some serious missteps by Trudeau. As far as malfeasance goes, you better have some solid proof, like in a court of law level proof, and be able to make it stick, without you sounding like a raving lunatic who is best ignored.
And apparently it’s the only reason why our population has increased.
ikr? Makes me want to send them a few bucks to buy a few seed potatoes to grow myself.
Some might argue that we already are lucky, considering where we live 😀
I don’t know if it makes a difference, but I’m in Canada and I’ve noticed none of this. No video load delays, no anti ad-blocker pop ups, none of it. I’m not going to stop using Firefox or Ublock Origin though.
The day I can’t get around youtube ads is the day I stop using youtube. I already refuse to use it on my mobile device or my TV, due to the ads.
You can’t unexecute someone if you got it wrong, and the system has gotten these cases wrong more than once.
That… seems circular. The reason you have the right isn’t self-defence though, its national defence. The second amendment was put in place to provide a ready source for a “well armed and well regulated militia”, and that right has killed more people than it has saved. I guess the real issue is that I can’t understand you, or where you are coming from.
I’m in my 50s and live in rural Canada, back in the itty bitty town on the West Coast that I moved out of as a teen, desperate to find work in the city. Today I hunt, I fish, and my favorite gun is the .270 Winchester I inherited from my father after he passed on a decade ago. Gun ownership and carrying laws are vastly more restrictive here than they are in the US, but not once have felt that those restrictions impinge on either my rights or my ability to protect myself or my family.
You have hundreds, nay thousands of people, dying every year from what to me, seems like a stupidly easy cause to prevent. All because your nation seems unwilling to grasp the concept that a good number of people aren’t able to responsibly use the ability to project lethal force. No, you can’t stop gun crimes by regulating guns, any more than locks can prevent all burglaries, but you CAN make it harder for bad people to get guns. Just like a good lock makes it harder for someone to steal your stuff.
Anyway, it’s 2am here, and I apologize for subjecting you to this rant, but its a frustration I’ve wanted to get off my chest for awhile now. It’s pretty clear you and I will never see eye to eye on this, but it was nice to back and forth a bit on this. I know it means less than a pitcher of spit, but all the best to you and yours, and to your sister as well.

The problem is that the things you talk about are all tools. Including guns. It’s just that the primary tool use of a gun is to kill. If I see someone openly carrying a gun they are saying, “I am ready to kill.” Carrying a knife? “I am ready to cut something.” Driving a car? “I am going somewhere”
Can those latter two things be used to kill? Of course. Anything can be used to kill, but that isn’t their primary function. The primary use of a gun, the reason why guns are made, is to kill things. And that makes all the difference.
Good. I hope they get the book thrown at them. Their stated purpose, which they put on their website, was the overthrow of our government and it’s replacement with a junta with them forming 2/3rds of it.
"And with enough evaders,
Escaping from the game,
The rule becomes an empty shell
That rules in only name…"
Doesn’t the DPRK operate under the Juche political concept?
