@BizarCoin @grok Absolutely nuts

Not breaking, it’s been there since Jan 1. From @grok: The exact language in question is found in § 3 Absatz 2 of the Wehrpflichtgesetz (WPflG) as amended by the Wehrdienst-Modernisierungsgesetz (WDModG). The principle was previously applicable only in crisis situations. Now it’s generally applicable outside of crisis situations. More bureaucracy. Wonderful!!

@VasiliyZukanov @dhh Hmmmm the people that you're referring to in most (close to all cases) are lying there BC of there families choices. No amount of maid reaches the people you are referring to

@dhh Dunno man. Have you seen elderly people on life support for weeks or more, just lying there, sufferring, and everyone around praying for this to just end? I'd like to have the option to define some more humane exit strategy for when my time comes.

This is such an unbelievably dark timeline. Would have been too marcabre and far-fetched an episode for Black Mirror in 2012.

@tobi The entire country runs like a Minnesota Somali daycare. Prove me wrong.

So curious how much money was paid out over that same time span?

If you can’t call out antisemitism clearly, you are part of the problem. Canada is drifting. And now the world is noticing. “More synagogues… desecrated, burned, shot at… than in any other country.” “We’re witnessing a polite pogrom.” Read that again. That should stop us in our tracks. theatlantic.com/international/…

70 and 80 year old people are generally unemployable due to physical and mental decline but for some reason we allow them to run the entire fucking country.

@adamchamb Canada in a nutshell

The government made a huge bet on EVs and it was an epic failure.  Massive subsides caused companies to relocate conventional manufacturing outside Canada.  Now, the government thinks Canada will manufacture EV cars for export to the world.  This is pure fantasy, not based facts or practicality.  There is no plan.  This is Hopes. Dreams. Vibes.  Auto workers and taxpayers will pay the price.

@davzhao @grok do we have data regarding the entire world versus Canada (not just the developed)?

Why does Canada have the longest MRI wait times in the developed world? The Ontario health ministry has a central licensing department for all imaging. In 2024 less than 30 licenses were given out. I know imaging centres that have machines collecting dust for years waiting to be licensed. This is a classic Soviet style artificial supply constraint created by bureaucracy. Meanwhile Canadians are driving to Buffalo or overseas for private MRIs.

@FoodProfessor If you wanna know why Canadians poll not vacationing to the US, it's because they can't afford it!

Latest food inflation across the G7 (descending): 🇨🇦 Canada: 5.4% 🇯🇵 Japan: 3.9% (January 2026) 🇬🇧 U.K.: 3.6% (January 2026) 🇺🇸 U.S.: 3.1% 🇮🇹 Italy: 2.6% 🇫🇷 France: 2.0% 🇩🇪 Germany: 1.5% Canada continues to post the highest food inflation rate in the G7.

"Canada has free healthcare" Wait times ... Surgery : 284 days or longer Kill you : no wait I guess they did the financial math and it is cheaper to offer to kill their citizens. So they prioritized that. Then they made it easier for 3rd world migrants to come and replace them. This is the end result of socialism.

War debases currencies, freezes capital, closes borders, and levels physical assets. The question every conflict forces on capital holders is ancient. The answer, for the first time, is new.

Dead right

@Tablesalt13 He got the CCP's memo late!

🚨BREAKING - CARNEY BACKSTABS CANADIANS AND THE USA, PIVOTS TO SIDING WITH THE EU ON IRAN Now says that he took the position of supporting the US in Iran "with regret" urges the US to "respect international rules" says "Canada was not consulted on this war"

He got the CCP's memo late..,..

@beeple Nice 'product'!

MCDONALDS PROMO / TAKE 752

@elonmusk @JTLonsdale .... Or are you European?

@JTLonsdale “Are you gay?” 🤣🤣

In CA this month, we’re literally required as a venture firm to ask each of our CEO’s in a survey if they are gay. Meanwhile today in Texas the voting machine is like, Y or N, “Ban gender nonsense in K-12?” “Ban sharia law?” 🇺🇸

When are we changing Canada's name to Brookfield?

Canada's GDP per capita was 94% of America's in 1981. Today it's 67%. The widest gap since World War II. Ontario — Canada's economic engine — is now poorer than 43 US states. Including Louisiana and Alabama. This isn't a blip. It's a generational collapse. Here's the data: From 2017-2024, US productivity grew 10.1%. Canada's fell 0.6%. America is sprinting. Canada is walking backwards. 71% of Waterloo software engineering grads leave for the US. The brain drain damage threshold is 20%. Canada is at 3x the red line. Israel spends 6.35% of GDP on R&D. The US spends 3.4%. Canada spends 1.7%. That's not a gap. That's a different species. Canada's pension funds hold $2.6 trillion. Only 13% is invested in Canada. 47% is in the US. Even Canada's own money doesn't believe in Canada. Net FDI position: negative $1 trillion. Capital is fleeing the country faster than Waterloo grads. 72% of Canadian entrepreneurs start businesses because "jobs are scarce." Not opportunity. Survival. Canadian workers get 30 cents of IP investment for every $1 an American worker gets. You can't out-innovate anyone with 30-cent tools. The average Canadian spends 48% of their income on a mortgage. The average American: 34%. Canadians work to pay for houses. Americans work to build companies. None of this is about laziness. Canadians are talented. The system is broken. Zero income tax. Business-friendly regulation. Speed of execution. That's Dubai. That's Singapore. That's what "Dubai of the North" means. Canada has everything — talent, resources, geography, rule of law. What it doesn't have is a system that rewards building. Fix the tax code. Kill the red tape. Stop subsidizing real estate. Start subsidizing R&D. The talent is there. The capital will follow.

That makes the story even crazier.

Poor Ursula. She definitely has a talent for ridiculing herself and the EU. The comments are really funny, worth a look! We live in Bizarre times!
