YXE Top Lawyer says “…we do monitor it and we have specified that type of construction in areas where we thought vibration would be important to avoid.” Which YXE property owners get the benefit of low impact and which get risk of high impact construction practices for ADUs?

@ryangerritsen There should be an investigation into the English only message. The government should appoint a dozen retired judges to travel the country to hold public meetings so that people can share their feelings and trauma. I’m so disgusted with the priorities that our leaders choose!

CBC has nothing better to do than to promote the resignation of the Air Canada CEO. State funded media is trying to keep people distracted from Liberal incompetence. Who cares about over 150,000 fake students who were never investigated, let’s care about how a guy never spoke French.

@ProtectWard2n3 @CKOMNews @JoBeaMe Once it gets built, there will be lots of minimum wage jobs available when concerts come to Saskatoon. This is why the city is pushing forward with this idea.

@CKOMNews @JoBeaMe Who ever agreed to building this thing? Literally homeless people everywhere destroying communities like ours and you are focusing on building a toy to make the rich richer! This should NOT be moving forward until EMERGENT priorities are settled. Those with money control.

Victims of fraud are often groomed or pressured into decisions that feel reasonable at the time. Here, @DrLisCarter explains why understanding this behaviour is vital to the @ukhomeoffice’s new Fraud Strategy, launched at Guildhall recently, and to improving protection for the public – @CityPolice will have a key role to play. This is our final video from the Guildhall launch.

An Afghan woman forced to marry the man who raped her. CNN reports. Because the rapist (right) was married, the victim was sent to prison for adultery and gave birth there. For the sake of her newborn daughter, she reluctantly agreed to the marriage. We must not allow Islamic law to be brought into Japan. - 加藤 健 @JapanLobby

@RuleofLawCanada @SAVEservicesorg I’d certainly prefer any unfairness to be against the other! I’d also acknowledge that I wouldn’t want to be in a fight against my son’s coach. She’s about a foot shorter than me and at least 100 pounds lighter. I’ve seen her train, spar and fight. An incredible athlete!

For sure but that might not be the actual reason but a justification that sounds right. Both men and women prefer to cater to women but also both would prefer that a man fight for them, physically. We choose what gives an advantage because whilst we want equality, we would prefer any unfairness to be against the other, not us.

@RuleofLawCanada @SAVEservicesorg Maybe but I recall the advice my father gave me a long time ago. He told me that when choosing a professional and all things seem equal, choose the woman. She’s worked harder to achieve her position. Sexist perhaps but likely true as well!

@DTSaskatoon @SAVEservicesorg ah, but that is an entirely different thing. that is bias on the basis of thinking that you are a lawyer. You can be damn sure if a woman dressed up there would be more people paying attention to her, than me, for instance, because I'm male and she is female. Chivalry etc.

@TWilsonOttawa They should have a decent grasp of the number of (previously) Restricted rifles - like the AR platform. They doesn’t have any idea how many (previously) Non Restricted rifles were in the public’s hands before they determined them to be Prohibited. So many bought NR rifles!

They’re lying about the numbers. There are 105,000 AR-15’s alone. Thats one of 2500 models banned. Are they suggesting all other models combined = 51,000? Ridiculous - it’s over 2,000,000

.@Safety_Canada Minister @gary_srp estimates 166,000 “assault-style” firearms are subject to $742 million national buyback program. Only 51,000 have been registered with 6 days remaining before expiry of compensation deadline. blacklocks.ca/six-days-to-fi… #cdnpoli

@PrairieVeteran The government will establish an inquiry to determine how this happened. Not the tragic accident of course but the lack of French in the short update from the CEO of @AirCanada. He also forgot to start with a land acknowledgment.

@RuleofLawCanada @SAVEservicesorg I don’t agree! All things being equal, it’s easier for male, especially a white male, to navigate the justice system. If I walk into a courthouse wearing a suit, I’m often mistaken for a lawyer without even saying a word.

Potential buyers across Ontario are poised to receive a significant tax discount on newly-built homes, but only for a limited time, Global News has learned, as the Ford government looks to boost a sector struggling with a slump in sales. globalnews.ca/news/11744625/… #onpoli

@JonFraserTF It’s an absolutely ridiculous situation but that’s the world we have created. Everyone is a victim under certain circumstances. If you’re a victim, you deserve to be treated to an apology and maybe even compensation. I feel like a victim for taking an interest in this story!

What an absolutely ridiculous situation. The fact that there has been so much time and energy spent on this case is unreal. Canada has two official languages - English and French. Expecting services in any other language is not a "human right". ctvnews.ca/saskatoon/arti…

@sltarasoff Follow the money! These breadcrumbs reveal a lot more about whose controlling the agenda than the press conferences, the fancy websites and the glossy promotional posters.

This Jamaican agriculture worker's permit ran out in 2023. Even so, he remained in Canada for >2 more years, using every procedure he could to stay. All failed. Deportation was supposed to be March 6, 2026. Great example of how this country doesn't take overstayers seriously.

A damning Auditor General’s report shows these three Liberal ministers allowed 150,000 cases of suspected immigration fraud to go uninvestigated. Then Carney promoted them. And they remain in his Liberal cabinet. Mr. Prime Minister, do your job. Fire them. Now.

@PierrePoilievre @emilyabrown2025 If they have money to buy firearms from law abiding Canadians, they have money to investigate suspected immigration fraud. If they don’t, they are not prioritizing public safety and the future prosperity of Canada.

@wesley_sch20260 As a law abiding firearm owner, I enjoy some of the latest Hollywood movies including the John Wick series. Highly entertaining! Let’s not forget, the government is trying to take away our lawfully owned handguns - just a long list of scary looking rifles.

@echipiuk Just like politics, those that can afford to advertise and promote themselves will do much better than those that cannot. Our system isn’t perfect but elections would make things worse! The history of political donations before appointments is disturbing and should be stopped.
