@lemmy.caI'm not surprised. I got shingles as a healthy man in my 20s. I was told it was likely related to having COVID a few months before, because of how it harms your immune system.
There are many solutions proposed by firearms rights activists to problems of violence and crime. If you're interested, check out gundebate.ca
I'm not sure what handgun data you're talking about, but it's common for Canadians to misunderstand the state of firearms in Canada. Since handguns are restricted firearms, they're registered. This means we know every time one of them turns up at a crime scene and the registered owner is charged. And this simply doesn't happen. These handguns are not being used in crimes. So banning legal sale of handguns will change nothing regarding crime.
I want to do something about violence in our country too. I just want us to do something that will actually work because those involved are actually educated on the issue.
I just wish that the general public and the government were educated on existing firearms laws and regulations in Canada. Assault weapons and high capacity magazines have been illegal here for a very long time. I don't like politicians trying to score points on issues that aren't actually issues, the public just isn't informed about them.
Yeah I totally understand the idea. And I hope it helps us have more housing. But it sucks to know that it might also make it easier for more slum lords to exist.
It's crazy that our government just removed taxes for new apartment buildings, making it even more profitable for these corporations. I know we need to do something about the housing crisis but this just doesn't seem right at all...
"Work it in" is very important! If you don't, it will splatter everywhere and collect a bunch of dust and turn to gunk!
This seems like a pretty reasonable take.This article does seem intentionally devisive. From the very beginning, its premise was that anyone supporting this bill is automatically pro-life, and uses that as justification to dismiss all conservative MPs. It jumps to huge conclusions based on very little.
I don't understand those disagreeing with you. If you heard a story about a woman who was assaulted, any reasonable person would be angry about that. Would you not be even more angry if you heard that she was pregnant with full intent to have the baby?
We all treat pregnant women as special. Because a wanted pregnancy is very special. Anyone assaulting someone who is pregnant should get the maximum punishment the law allows.
The most fascinating part of this to me is that roughly 88% of mixed breed dogs passed the test. So if you're just looking for a great dog, a mixed breed might actually have a better chance than a purebred!
Unless you're getting a lab. I've never met a lab that wasn't the bestest doggo ever lol
I think the contrast is that the Conservatives have talked about addressing the supply side rather than the demand side. Pollievre has talked about "removing the gatekeepers" to allow more homes to be built.
I'm not sure if cities are actually making it hard to build more homes. But I would guess that from a city's perspective, you'd want to limit the rate of new homes being built so you can keep your land valuations as high as possible to maximize property tax revenue. But again, that's just a theory. And not sure the Conservatives could do anything about that anyway if it were the case
