Federal government clarifies the CRA won’t collect ‘any portion’ of a non-resident landlord’s unpaid taxes from tenants (www.thestar.com)
Did you also watch Téléfrancais in school? in c/canada@lemmy.ca

People have uploaded all the episodes to YouTube now.

It’s just not the same though. The true experience is watching it on a TV/VCR on a cart that the teacher wheeled in.

Justice served. This was probably one of those deadbeat renters that wasn’t even tipping their landlord.

My kids still watch Telefrancais in school.

Stubbornly high US inflation grew stronger than expected in March , vaulting to a 3.5% increase from last year in c/politics@lemmy.world

“High corporate profits are a main driver of ongoing inflation, and companies continue to keep prices high even as their inflationary costs drop.”

It’s a misnomer to call this “inflation” — it’s corporate collusion-driven price gouging.

Have only played two players so far. Even then, there was a lot of downtime, especially when you get to the third and fourth rounds.

It’s a fun, more complex, dragon-themed game built on the foundations of Wingspan — familiar, but very different.

It’s a lot of fun seeing the victory point-generating system you’ve built kick into gear, though once you start chaining things together turns can take forever. This, unfortunately, kind of sucks for the non-active player(s), as there’s nothing to do but sit and wait between turns.

Playing this game with four players must take forever.
