Stone Age 2: Electric Boogaloo

The efficiency gains from an air source heat pumps are on the heating cycle, not the cooling cycle, since you are moving heat around instead of having to generate heat via combustion or big heating elements. When acting as an air conditioner, the efficiency is the same.

I’m with you on that one. Cutting off energy exports is the kind of drastic action that the feds would absolutely be in contact with him about.

If you wanted me to pronounce it that way, you should have spelled it that way.

Show me a conflict within the borders of the Ottoman Empire that killed more people than the Napoleonic Wars.

Why would I do that? It would have nothing to do with anything I said.

I feel as though the entire point of this was to make Canadians feel ashamed and discouraged on the day before our national holiday.And in that Trump was successful.

The fuck he was. I feel no shame, nor discouragement whatsoever.

All Trump “won” was getting Carney to scrap a policy that wasn’t even in force yet, effectively gaining nothing. And there’s nothing stopping us from just reimplementing the same policy under some other name that Trump’s dumb ass won’t even notice.

Should make this a province wide rule. It’s awesome having little corner stores, bakeries, coffee shops, etc right in the residential neighborhood.

Doubtful on this one. Keeping the ban in place lets him play up the “belligerent everyman/Captain Canada” image him and his base love so very much. The flip flopping is reserved for shady deals for his developer buddies that he knew were wrong and was just hoping no one would notice.

So I checked Wikipedia, and the list of conflicts in the middle east in the years between 1300 to 1800 is far from empty. I know it’s easier to blame everything on the US, but you are ignoring dozens of different conflicts that occurred during that span of years.

An actual historian can chime in if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure the middle east has had some sort of internal or external conflict going on for all of history. So the answer to your question is likely “still war”.

There’s no government run wineries. Buying from Ontario isn’t “giving Ford money”.

Here’s some more food for thought: what happens if they piss off the Eve players? Those clowns have basically been training themselves on how to come out on top in a no-hold-barred capitalist system.

Says who? Is the whole point of movies not for you to have fun?

As a millennial, at no point did we actually want participation trophies. The feeling of coming in last was not changed in the slightest by receiving a junk trophy.

Hate it all you want, but until you can establish a viable third party (who isn’t also awful), “lesser of two evils” is the only choice you have.

No one said Obama wasn’t also evil. In fact, no one mentioned him at all. And he wasn’t one of the options in the last election. Why are you so obsessed with him?

The state of mobile phone market in Canada is so frustrating. Not only is our market dominated by 3 players who refuse to actually compete with each other, but we miss out on half the cool phones that the rest of the world gets too.

“Capitalism” isn’t some self aware entity that you can blame all evils on. It’s humans all the way down. And it’s not even the cartoon evil type of humans; those are rare. Everyone responsible at each step of the way is terrifyingly ordinary.

I’m not sure those two really do. Any Russian claims have been proven suspect, and China’s force protection has always been their Achilles heel.

There are other services the government provides that cannot (and should not) be operated for profit (ie healthcare).

I already said this.
