@CdnElectWatch That's exactly what I was thinking. Probably a mix of better housing and lack of wokeness

Quebec, on the other hand, has near-Scandinavian levels of happiness.
Perhaps not coincidentally, it doesn't have insane housing prices and escaped the worst of Anglosphere wokeness and populist backlash.
Simon Bilodeau@brahman_SB
Le Québec se classerait à la 5e place des pays les plus heureux au monde. Une des raisons évoquées serait la forte cohésion sociale et le sens du collectif qui serait + élevé ici, à l'instar des pays scandinaves. À noter la chute marquée des pays anglophones ces dernières années.

@Prominent_Bryan Quebec tied for 5th with Sweden, though.
Rest of Canada below the UK.

Canada isn't in the top 10 in any category for the World Happiness Index

All the questions from the crowd are about social stuff (dei etc)
This just reminding me that Caroline didn't actually take questions after her speech (well one on one sure)
Maybe because she knew it would be such questions?

Iain Black decided he was gonna run like it was 2005 and he's sticking to the strategy

@Prominent_Bryan She needs to be better briefed. The notwithstanding clause does not apply to aboriginal rights and title under section 35 of the Constitution Act, 1982.
English
KLF answered a question by saying she'd use the notwithstanding clause for property rights
Not surprising but we need every candidate to explicitly say so
English
Okay she was genuinely pretty good tonight. Good energy and she addressed the main issues with some added details which was welcoming
She made a good pitch that she has the experience needed

KLF is very comfortable in her speech. She obviously has the experience but still, she's very good tonight
English
KLF: "there is a path for development and reconciliation but it cannot be the tyranny of the minority"
English
KLF saying she's conservative but more importantly, respectful (referring to the fact the next leader will need to unify the Right after it fractured)
English
@Prominent_Bryan Yes. Not to mention, a new $45,000 Rav will never drive itself. The tesla on the other hand…
English
With the new EV rebate, you can get a Tesla model Y for $45,000. This is cheaper than a Rav 4. It's crazy.
Hard to find a better overall value out there. Unless you really can't charge at home, this should be a no brainer to everyone
English
"people tell me they'll have to sell"
No they won't. The fact their deferred property tax is accruing more interests only means they'll pay more when they sell or die
English
Okay KLF is saying the NDP was wrong to increase the interest rates charged on postponed property taxes
I'm sorry but this is nonsense. This is one of the only good things the NDP did. No more subsidies for old homeowners
English
KLF is very comfortable in her speech. She obviously has the experience but still, she's very good tonight
English
Okay here's one thing I haven't heard from other candidates
KLF said she'd do a more collegial management style. Basically saying it wouldn't be all top-down from her office
English
KLF now speaking
Starts with the economy and the budget (Kooner opened before her by talking about property rights)
English
@mashakleiner Stop being a settler and learn this language, Masha!

These are actual quotes from the agreement between the federal government and the Musqueam band. How many people from the Musqueam reserve, including the chief and council, can read this?

Omg my wife texted me this (she doesn't follow me on here lol)
Bryan Breguet@Prominent_Bryan
Bringing this to my wife for sure
