I'm confused by what you mean, there are some technical loopholes shown here but it's quite clear: "Charging tuition in basic education is prohibited by the Finnish constitution." www.bbc.com/news/uk-poli...

Private schools: Is Jeremy Corbyn right about bans?
The Labour leader said school fees were banned in some countries.

I'm sick and tired of choosing between the lesser of two evils. If the progressive wing of the American Democratic party becomes an actual force, the @ndp.ca are best suited to working with them to make a future where society and the environment aren't destroyed.

I'll take Avi Lewis over both. He's not perfect, but I trust his motives far more.

If they don't want it, it's being forced on them. Nothing I've heard leads me to believe that ordinary first nations want pipelines through their land. Oh, and in the age of the climate crisis building a pipeline is evil in the first place.

He's the kind of ass who will read a land acknowledgment before announcing forcing a pipeline through native land.

Carney loves the rich of his country. He's just another Stephen Harper or Brian Mulroney. A Progressive Conservative cosplaying as a centrist.

At this point, #Trump has promised Americans so many payouts and delivered none of them, that #MAGA expecting another payout looks like Charlie Brown kicking a football.

I think it's a bad idea to personify nature. Nature doesn't prey on things. It just exists. Dreams however, I can get behind.

Not entirely. As Darwin posited it, survival of the fittest doesn't mean strongest. It means best suited to the environment one finds oneself in. And humans are best suited to co-operate. We're not outside of nature at all. We are a part of it. Divorcing the two is a bad idea.

Are you in or near #peterborough? Are you GenX? We need you for "You're History" a new live game show October 16th at The Theatre on King! It's a chance to look funny and smart in front of dozens of people and to win cheap, kitchy prizes!

I have been #groped without permission. I have been groped against my will. And while those are two different things, it's my right as the person being groped, to determine which. So I strongly recommend against groping someone against their will, because they may choose #2. And that's a crime.

Which is all well and good, if you have free healthcare. Even in Canada any drugs required as part of the program would not be covered for many people who don't have some form of private insurance.

#rpg The following comes from the rule book for an indy game called CORE (Creative Options Role-playing Engine) which I found on @drivethrurpg.com It explains very effectively why I have always hated the concept of realism in RPGs. I still remember people arguing for realism in a *Vampire* game...

Food is a basic human right, not a privilege. But yes, not everyone always gets their human rights, and we should be grateful for what abundance we do have.

Check out Look Aside Films Fund on '@filmfreeway' I've got a 15-pager with good festival response I want to submit. But I need a #director around Peterborough #Ontario and a #producer (can be the same person) who could theoretically work remote. I'd cover the entrance fee, I just need names attached

#flashfiction TW: Kidnapping I strained against the handcuffs, but the pipe held firm. I turned to face my captor. His leering grin chilled me as much as the butcher knife in his sweat soaked hand. "I'm going to grind you into burger meat." "Is that figurative?" "Wouldn't you like to know..."
