Anyone who really seriously wants to die in a medical way should just buy some fent. You'll fall asleep and stop breathing; nice and easy.

I remember the first few tents when we lived there a couple of years ago and there were already quite the encampments around Victoria park. Around that time I remember also the proud announcement on the radio that Waterloo had just had the first drive by-shooting in its history, ever. Al Capone style.

A few years go the cost of debt was #3 for government spending. Right after social services and health care. Now its apparently #2. Sooner or later it goes to #1. And then they would have to regularly increase taxes to service the cost of debt. And in the end everything that comes in goes straight to the bank, and so on and so on.

David Sassoon, an Iraqi Jew and the treasurer of Baghdad, supplied the opium and later one of his sons married a Rothschild. The Sassoon and Rothschild family fortunes got combined.
Somehow the British take all the blame for the Opium Wars.

Afaik the chinese are actually well aware that their real war is with the jews, and one of their smarter moves was to fan the flames of the divide between the israeli jews and the american ones

Experts say the public is right to feel uneasy about a visibly manipulated Royal Family portrait (Archive)
Thanks, experts. I never could have arrived at that conclusion on my own. You're all so valuable and your jobs certainly matter.
And thanks, CTV. I appreciate you giving us plebians the permission to worry.
It should have reassured the public that she was all right, but the release by the Royal Family of a photo featuring the Princess of Wales and her children has done the opposite this week.
The Mother's Day photo became the subject of intense public speculation after several media outlets that published the image on Sunday retracted it later in the day over concerns about digital manipulation.
After all, the retractions came following weeks of gossip on social media about Catherine's whereabouts and well-being after a two-week hospitalization in January for abdominal surgery. She hadn't been seen publicly since Christmas Day.
While the changes to the photo appear relatively innocuous — an inconsistency in the alignment of Princess Charlotte's left sleeve, around Catherine's jacket zipper and Prince Louis' jumper — experts say members of the public are right to feel uneasy about the episode.
"It's kind of evoking all of the digital paranoia that comes across in these strange times when anything can be photoshopped," Jeffrey Dvorkin, an expert in media ethics at the University of Toronto, told CTVNews.ca in a phone interview on Monday.
In a post on social media, Catherine later explained that "like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing."
"I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused," the post said.
While Dvorkin believes she did the right thing by admitting she altered the photo, he said the whole chapter leaves the public feeling more suspicious, at a time when trust in digital media is already low.
"The downside of her being so candid is that the public now says, 'OK, if this isn't true, what else are they not telling us? What else is not true that they're trying to pass off as the truth'?"
The Princess of Wales is certainly not the first person to tweak or air brush a family photo. Commercial photographers, celebrities and regular social media users have been altering photos for decades to make them more aesthetically pleasing.
"I think anybody who's posted a profile picture using a filter regularly engages in some sort of manipulation of representation of self," Brett Caraway, an expert in social media reaction and online conspiracies at the University of Toronto, told CTVNews.ca in a phone interview on Monday.
But the rub here is that Kate is a public figure operating within an institution that appears to be heavily invested in controlling narratives about its members.
"I think that's what people are pausing on is: why was there an edit done? Was it just to make the portrait a little bit more aesthetically pleasing? Or was it to potentially change a narrative that has been circulating about her health?" Caraway said. "And that's a legitimate question."
Just about anyone can use photo-editing tools and generative AI to create altered, misleading or even completely fabricated images and use them to influence others — and anyone who consumes online media is an easy target for misinformation and disinformation.
"The world that we're in today is incredibly mediated," Caraway said. "Our understanding of reality is mediated by the screen constantly. Everything that we know about the world around us, unless it's in our immediate vicinity, comes through the internet. And so making sure that there's a fidelity between the representation and the underlying reality is incredibly important."
Institutions and leaders — including the Royal Family and its members — owe it to the public to be transparent about the images they use to promote themselves, Dvorkin said, or else risk damaging the trust of the public.
"It causes us all to be cynical and skeptical … from the idea that there's no one out there that we can trust. That's the worst aspect of what's going on," Dvorkin said. "It raises doubts in the minds of the public."
As for the journalists and media organizations that cover the Royal Family, Richard Berthelsen, royal commentator for CTV News, said Buckingham Palace will need to work to keep their trust as well.
"What the palace puts out has to have a degree of credibility for the media to be able to accept other things that they say, so that's going to be an issue going forward," Berthelsen told CTV News Channel on Monday.
"They're going to have to be more careful. They're going to have to work more closely on that front. They may have to invite the media, in some cases, to do a photograph."

When I read white Canadians on Twitter actively defending 'multiculturalism' by insisting it's not the composition of the immigrants coming into our country that matters, it's just the number that's too high, I become convinced Canadians don't deserve to survive as a people. If there are so many Canadians that don't have a problem in principle with their country being flooded with racially and culturally dissimilar foreigners, I just don't know how it's possible for us to deserve to survive. Maybe it's just the propaganda machine that's been so successful over so many decades in browbeating Canadians into hating themselves, their culture, their values, their heritage, I don't know.

At this point, I think the only way you actually “save” Canada is if the States decides to start Manifesting their Destiny again, and they just treat us like a cold Puerto Rico (ie. we don’t get a say in Federal politics). Between us and Cartel Land, I have my doubts America would appreciate having failed states on both land borders, especially with how fuck huge the Canadian Border is.
It’s that or Balkanization at this point - let everything East of the Manitoba-Ontario border collapse, they think they’re the centre of the universe so they might not even notice the prairies fucking off…

lol this is delusional. you're just replacing jeet north with jeet south management. the suburb i grew up in was 95% white in 2000. it's now 60% white with the remainder being mainly jeetery. even the DMV workers in this 80% white state got replaced with jeets already.

They don't want to accept that cultures have differing, often conflicting values. It's all because they don't want to accept a reasonable argument for beliefs they would deem racist. It's a form of denialism stemming from the socially instilled, early-ingrained image painted of the average racist as an unreasonable and purely hateful creature. They also can't accept that every person alive makes assumptions about people; they neglect the nuance that only idiots run with their assumptions despite being presented solid contradictory evidence. I used to be this exact way.
I liked the immigrants we used to have back then. They were genuinely good people who worked hard to assimilate and give back to the country through their expertise. Now whenever I hear a relatively young person with a Pajeet accent, it fills me with such burning contempt. This country used to be pretty decent; I used to have hope things would improve with our infrastructure.

the 90s indians were a cut above everyone else. it was pretty much all doctors, engineers, and professors who had their shit sorted out and not the median jeet. for example, one of my friends dads came to study medicine and he was 1 of like 13 children in his family and struggled his way from abject poverty to being the chief of internal medicine.
today's jeet floods are just a reminder from the oligarchs who run the place that they're in charge and not you. and that you're imminently replaceable at a click of a button to let in another torrent of third world immigration.

While true, recent evidence has shown we really shouldn't be allowed to be in charge of ourselves.
Look when the bar is as low as it is, I'll take most anything as an improvement.
