I’ve been thinking about this all day. Imagine vacationing in a country while gleefully wearing MATCHING sweaters celebrating sovereignty threats… TOWARDS THE COUNTRY YOU ARE VISITING. What kind of treatment do you expect to get? Are you LOOKING for a fight? Do you WANT a cook spitting in your food?

My heart goes out to the person in this car who just wants to go home but someone in a huge truck parked behind them.
A white car and a black truck in a parking garage. The black truck is parked at a 90 degree angle to the back of the white car. If the white car was to back up in a straight line, it would hit the front corner of the truck.

I continue to be puzzled by this guy. What are you DOING?
An ad from Daniel Mullen for Mayor where he is basically just bitching about what the current City Council did with the boulder park.

Paid for by Daniel Mullen for Mayor
BOULDER PARK: READ THE AGREEMENT FOR YOURSELF
There has been considerable discussion about
Charlottetown's $4.8-million purchase of Boulder Park - what City Council knew, what it authorized, and what restrictions were ultimately placed on the property.
Mayor Philip Brown says Council had all the necessary information before voting and that all the details were discussed in closed session.Rather than asking anyone to take my word for it, I have now posted the underlying agreement online.
Schedule B is particularly important. It says Boulder Park must remain green space or parkland and that no amendment to its zoning or change in use is permitted without the prior written consent of both the Fathers of Confederation Trust and the Executive Council of Prince Edward Island.
The agreement was signed on behalf of the City by Mayor Philip Brown and Acting CAO Sue Fraser.
There are important questions still to answer:
Did Council expressly authorize these restrictions? What exactly was Council told before it voted? And can a private agreement lawfully constrain the planning authority of future City Councils?
I have requested the underlying City records and believe the legal question deserves independent review.
Read the agreement. See the relevant pages. Draw your own conclusions.

Okay, you do not want children.
What are you doing to prevent conception, the pill, condoms, abstaining during the fertile phase of your cycle? What is wrong with preventing conception first, instead
'preventing birth' later?

Someone at Holland College: “We have this ENORMOUS brick wall that faces a busy street. We should paint our name on it.” “Sounds great, I’m on it.”
Absolutely gigantic brick wall on a large building. A few lines of light bricks break up the facade but it’s still awkwardly large. In the very middle, sitting on one of those lines, is a hilariously small painted sign with Holland College’s logo on it
