replacing these people a set of LOADED dice

FTFY

Sure it is. We actually have a long history of this, and our governing structure is set up to do exactly this.

We're just not so used to seeing them blatantly mimic deeply umpopular Americans.

Except that it is becoming that way.

Ford is fighting the courts to destroy bike lanes and public healthcare. Smith is imposing every fascist ideal possible on her province. Poilievre said he'd use the NWC to get his way if he becomes PM.

Modern conservatives worldwide are behaving dictatorially. They are - to a person - small-minded, self-interested, fearful, hate-filled, loathsome authoritarians, who frequently wrap their abuse in religion.

Or entire political system is based on the idea that even corrupt politicians will mostly try to serve the people, to some degree. We now have politicians and supporters around the world who are willing to murder people and burn the world down for their own short-term gain.

The sooner we understand that, the sooner we can fight them.

It has been slowly happening more and more in the last decades, and I fear that it will continue to get worst.

NIMBYs are demanding to talk to the province's manager.

Ironically, studies have shown that cities with robust bike infrastructure actually have faster emergency response times due to reduced congestion and more flexbile routing options for emergency vehicles.

Not to mention that reducing drivers often reduces car crashes and injuries, so long as the drivers that switch to biking are adequately protected. So overall there will be less strain on healthcare and emergency services. This is even before factoring in the health benefits cycling has over cars. Someone who switches to biking for 20 years is likely to have less health concerns as they age.

Tim Houston is a Conservative. He can't act any other way.
