This is a reminder for whoever needs to hear this that DEI does not mean setting quotas on hiring by race. That is a myth.
Instead, it’s making sure that people of all races and genders are informed about the job opportunity so they have a chance to apply too. The best talent is then hired.
Today, DEI is used as a dogwhistle by MAGA who hates seeing genders and races other than their in-group at their workplace.
DEI is a dogwhistle for people who can’t use the hard R at this point…
Depends on the province. Ontario is underfunded and has serious issues exacerbated by our conservative former-hash-dealer and long-time Trump supporter Premier who wants to privitize it. Alberta healthcare is a mess from MAGA Danielle Smith trying to privitize too.
We should care for our elders, yes. They also have the lowest poverty rates in the country while young people are experiencing the worst poverty and unempyment rates with a bleak future. Our society is so wealthy. Healthcare should be a human right no matter your age.
!fairvote@lemmy.ca is on bluesky too.
Wrong community?
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is still in B.C., where he’s pitching life sentences for fentanyl traffickers and gunrunners.
Classic.
It’s always “I’m just joking bro” to find the other shitty people who “get the joke” until it’s no longer a joke.
This is one protest. Many others are organised across the world.
Please link archived versions of natpo articles next time since they’re a right-wing USA-owned rag.
Misleading headline. It should read.
Canada freezes Tesla’s $43-million rebate payments due to fraud investigation, bars it from future rebates over tariffs
The $50 fee was ridiculous. $10 is still dumb but way more manageable.
Bye bye troll.
Deplorable.
Thirty of us shared one room. We were given one Styrofoam cup for water and one plastic spoon that we had to reuse for every meal. I eventually had to start trying to eat and, sure enough, I got sick. None of the uniforms fit, and everyone had men’s shoes on. The towels they gave us to shower were hand towels. They wouldn’t give us more blankets. The fluorescent lights shined on us 24/7.
Everything felt like it was meant to break you. Nothing was explained to us. I wasn’t given a phone call. We were locked in a room, no daylight, with no idea when we would get out.
…
To put things into perspective: I had a Canadian passport, lawyers, resources, media attention, friends, family and even politicians advocating for me. Yet, I was still detained for nearly two weeks.
Imagine what this system is like for every other person in there.
That wasn’t an acceptable excuse at the Nuremberg trials.
When someone buys a used Tesla, that’s one less new Tesla sold = lower Tesla sales numbers, profits, and viability of dealerships. It also devalues the car.
Used car prices have been similar to new in recent years, so devaluing Teslas makes buying used a more attractive option for people who would buy one anyways.
For example, I would also rather have someone who couldn’t otherwise afford an EV be buying a cheap, devalued Tesla and slapping a bunch of anti-Musk stickers on it than buying a new gas car.
Another example is I would rather have a MAGA idiot buying a used Tesla and unintentionally denying Musk another new car sale than a gas-guzzling pickup truck.
Alright, folks. Time to get on !MapleResistance@lemmy.ca, !Canada@50501.chat, and !resist@fedia.io. !preppers@lemmy.ca could use some love too
Now is not the time to be discussing moving the border, a topic which was started by trump in the context of threats to our sovereignty. I don’t find this funny and see it in poor taste.
