I was talking about the Territorial Collectivity of Saint Pierre and Miquelon, but sure your comment makes sense to.

They deserve it and I feel like a sick scab saying what I said. I was considering the Walmart Union in Quebec that lasted a year because people where not interested in staying in it.

Looking at my statement I feel like a sick scab, and I want to say that what I said was wrong. Unions are good, even for entry level jobs.

Fair question, you have made me stop and really think about it.

Originally I thought it is an entry level job meant for young people and retirees, the young ones should be aiming for something more than fast food. I realize I may be incredibly biased with my 54 day experience with a royal food joint who fired me because I am disabled close to 2 decades ago, so now if I want a whopper I have to make a hamburger with thousand island on it. Then I thought I was a member of PSAC and they have scholarships, had booger king had a union I could have benefited from that.

Then there was the whole inflation thing unions raise wages, making fast food more expensive which in turn makes all food more expensive. I was forgetting that raising tides raise all the ships making everyone’s wages go up.

Just because it is an entry level job does not mean they should be treated like peon’s.

It’s some little island though is it not?

I am very pro union, please do not get me wrong, ~~but unions for fast food is not my first thought of a good thing.~~

Now celebrating a US fast food company in Canada is wrong, let’s talk about second cup getting bigger and replacing Starbucks.

I realize my wrongs and I feel like a sick scab saying what I said.

The first time I heard of download/upload limits was cell phones, I was painfully aware of speeds as i grew up in the 90’s with a 14.4 k modem, but when I heard that people had limits on there download and upload on their home wired connection in the modern day was a surprise. I use several gigs a month, as I am sure many people do but if I take on a new project I do not need to think about the data usage.

A few years ago my modem went out I called Sasktel and they said they would send someone to replace it but they would give me the equivalent of unlimited data on my cell phone (if I was not going to be using gigs a day).

Yes but Saskatchewan is run by our DUI hire.

I have lived my life in Saskatchewan, when I see people say how much their bills are I can tell if they are in Saskatchewan or not. Having real competition rocks.

Have you purchased bread from the chain? Maybe (no the answer is yes).

One party resolution called on the government to stop designating carbon dioxide as a pollutant.

“If we’re able to take some of this money that’s been used for evil and not good, and repurpose it to reduce some of our costs, then I think that that’s a good thing,” acting Regina police chief Lorilee Davies told reporters on Wednesday.

Now just imagine if they used the money to help the disadvantaged people instead, they could lower crime that way.

U.S. President Donald Trump says he is terminating all trade negotiations with Canada over an advertisement by the Ontario government that uses the late U.S. president Ronald Reagan's own words to send an anti-tariff message to American audiences. 

In a late-night post to his Truth Social platform, Trump attacked the ad, which he attributed to Canada rather than Ontario, as fraudulent and fake. 

"TARIFFS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE NATIONAL SECURITY, AND ECONOMY, OF THE U.S.A." Trump wrote. "Based on their egregious behavior, ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED."

So I guess CUSMA is dead?

"This is a heartbreaking loss, and no words can capture the pain of losing a child. My sincere condolences go to the family during this profoundly difficult time,"

If I could I would kick every antivaxer right in the face because of this.

As an AMAB woman with an F on my ID I would be terrified of going to the US let alone someone with an X on their ID. Glade that the government is starting to realize.
