I hear you. I don't go to stores often either nowadays. Just to get my weekly groceries and every 2-3 weeks, I'd go to Home Hardware or Canadian Tire.

I think this is well thought and I agree with "This position doesn’t contradict support for proportional representation - in fact, they’re complementary. PR ensures citizens’ votes translate fairly into representation, while security clearances help ensure those representatives aren’t compromised by foreign interests."

Security clearance is required. We can still allow politicians to put their names on the ballot even if they fail security clearance, but they need to go through it because I, as a voter, want to know who has the "kompromat" for any particular politicians, whose pockets are the politicians are holing up in.

This is what I don't understand: did felon truly believe that average magas (so not fascists tech bros and nepo babies) are going to give up gas cars and buy EVs instead?

How are they going to lord it over cyclists if they can't even spew out black emissions as they speed by?

This may or may not help you, but what I do is: store my reusable bags with my shoes, so every time I reach for a pair of shoes before I leave the house, I could also grab a bag.

As part of enforcing Canada Elections Act, we should make sure that all prime minister candidates complete security clearance.

I wonder what pp has to hide?

I have been using Organic Maps and I have no complain.

I worry about this: https://www.dhs.gov/real-id but from the website, it seems that many states id/driver licenses are "REAL ID compliant" and you only need it if you fly domestically or wanting to access "certain federal facilities".

Stay safe, friend.

I have a question for you, do you actually need REAL ID to travel domestically?

This. I personally have no plan going to usa now and in the future. Unfortunately some Canadians may still have to go for work related trips. Just be aware that you may or may not need to register in the new "Alien Registration Requirement".

My checked luggage used to be searched when I went to usa. I knew it was searched because tsa would leave a pamphlet inside my luggage saying that it was searched. I believe they have stopped leaving such pamphlet but I won't be surprised if they still search luggages.

Yes I have done this too. "Don't recommend channel" option is definitely handy.

 

Thinking of what else someone like me (an older person) could do in order to prepare myself to support Ontario in emergencies. I came across Ontario Corps. Posting it here just in case it is something that interests you.

I was researching Ontario's manufacturers and came across this list: https://www.dnb.com/business-directory/company-information.manufacturing.ca.ontario.html I'm going to do more research on individual companies listed, but I thought some of you may be interested as well.

First time posting here so I apologize in advance if I did something wrong.
