This is true, but my company has a well established remote culture so I'm not concerned. The company policy for a long time has been that pay is based on geo, not by office status. I suppose that could always change but for now I'm not too worried.

Software developer at a company with a large percentage of the workforce already 100% remote. I used to go into the office until COVID hit in March, at which point everyone in the company was put into WFH. In May I applied for full time remote status and it was approved so I am never going back...

RIP. Thunderball and Goldfinger are my favourite Connery Bond films.

Others worried about getting infected can control their own risk by not going out. Ah yes the goalposts have moved now, instead of keeping people out of the hospital now it's about keeping them out of the hospital ever. If it means bankrupting our economy and saddling young people like me with...

Case counts are irrelevant if the people recover on their own and don't end up in the hospital. We have a higher case count now than we did in April/May, yet hospitalizations and ICU are at roughly 1/6 of what they were in April/May. This is probably because the people catching it are not in the...

I wasn't suggesting a free-for-all. There are reasonable restrictions to be had. In the GTA we've been rolled back beyond what's reasonable IMO. Especially when the province/city didn't even care to enforce their own rules in phase 3 anyways. When this all blows over they are going to find that...

Under the age of 50, 11 people in Ontario have died. Protect the vulnerable, let the rest of us get on with our lives.

Sure, there are a lot of millennials who travel and spend frivolously -- don't get me wrong, that is happening too. But there are also lots of millennials that are top earners in their field and still can't afford anything reasonable without completely over extending themselves. You mention...

The immigrants driving up the housing prices are not the refugees coming here with nothing and starting from scratch. I have no issues with such cases. The immigrants driving up the housing prices are the rich international students coming here with mommy/daddy's money and buying property...

I've heard vitamin D and zinc (in moderation, check dosage carefully) help with COVID recovery. GWS.

With photo radar allowed and available to municipalities, I give it 5 years until every fun driving road will have its speed limit reduced and photo radar installed. It's just too big of a revenue opportunity to pass up. "Community safety zones" here we come. It's a lazy approach too. If...

Too much state sponsored propaganda CBC for him, it seems.

Subsistence hunting makes up a very small percentage of licensed hunting in Canada. I don't have numbers for you but we're talking like less than 5% of all hunters. People aren't driving 5 hours up to North Bay for moose hunts for the food. Sure the freeze full of meat is a nice bonus, but the...

Sure, aeons ago. But humans are here now, and we've messed up the natural habitat of pretty much every animal on the planet. It's therefore our duty to manage the various ecosystems to keep populations in check, among other things. This is why every province has a Ministry of Natural Resources...

Legal trophy hunting is no different than regular, legal, hunting. In fact you could make the argument that it's better because 1) people pay big money in fundraisers to hunt the animals and 2) the money goes directly to fund conservation efforts in places that need it. Humane and controlled...

The stupidity is that we're going to spend $250k to "consult on" renaming Dundas St. Money that I'm sure, given we're in a pandemic with low tax revenues, is well spent. Those darn *checks notes* street signs enslaving people. Talk about first world problems.

This regression all started when the civil service became heavily unionized. I actually believe that unionization in government work forces should be heavily restricted, and here's why. Under normal circumstances (private employer vs union), the employer has a fiduciary duty to someone, whether...

What a bunch of losers, the projection is real. Congrats on your purchase! I hope it serves you well.
