DREAM Unlimited (DRM-T) is the company in question (Dundee Real Estate Asset Management). They are the head corporation that provides management services under MSA contracts to their sub-advised companies, DREAM Industrial REIT (DIR.un-T), DREAM Office REIT (D.un-T), and probably the actual company in question, DREAM Residential REIT (DRR.un).

There are many, many REITs (real estate investment trusts) in Canada, public and private, and what makes them a fairly good investment is that they absolutely relentlessly fuck the renter class. They need to be banned or have returns regulated, like utility companies.

So, now that churches are political meeting grounds and being used actively to capture and court voters, they’re going to be required to start paying taxes, correct?

I love seeing stuff like this, but I absolutely HATE that we are all still fighting for these rights and such basic shit is not long since codified into law. What the fuck.

Louder for those in the back!

Proportional representation without a referendum is the best way for parliament to do what’s necessary to fight against climate change.

Polievre - We’ve got a plan you guys! And it’s better than thise damn Libs! And it’s great and will definitely benefit everyone! Well…no we haven’t published it. Well…no, you can’t see it beforehand. We just need you to blindly vote us in and then we’ll definitely not immediately stab you plebs, I mean middle class voters, in the back.

Good. Hold every one of these public officials accountable to the most stringent interpretation of the law. That’s what Canadians deserve.

Typical CPC behaviour since the party merger / Harper era:

1. Blame the other guy and get into power based on outrage instead of actually having any policy;
2. Make life worse for the poors by cutting public services;
3. Lower taxes for corporations and the wealthy;
4. Steal as much as possible via hiring all your buddies as “consultants” for shit that doesn’t need any consulting or have any consequences;
5. Get fired because the same fucking chuds who voted you in are finally wising up;
6. Start blaming the other guys about all the problems you just created;
7. Repeat ad nauseum.

Unions standing up for the people again. Fucking awesome. Solidarity.

Family history of drunkards?

Double dog dare you no take-backsies!

Do you recognize how immature you sound? Or are you oblivious to that part of reality too?

Oh, HPPD is definitely a thing, but extraordinarily rare.

I may have misspoke about the brown acid - this was a legit warning resulting from “home-brew chemists” attempting to make their own LSD and failing to create it properly. Most of the supplies back then were direct from Sandoz (Novartis) and basically were being given away to the scientific community for novel testing. Fun stuff.

I’m talking about the hyperbole of “acid flashbacks” which was a narrative introduced to discourage and demonize LSD usage by the political and intellectual opponents of the Nixon administration. “Rots your brain permanently” and all that other garbage.

Turns out regular LSD usage by the “hippie” community and by many people involved in high-level education (particularly college and university professors) was making people feel more connected and empathetic towards one another, and that just didn’t do for the Republicans who needed everyone to fear “the other”.

What they also did with marijuana and heroin, and subsequently with crack cocaine, was truly abhorrent.

The information in the hallucinogenic section about acid flashbacks is incorrect. This was a false rumour spread in the 70s to demonize the political opponents of Nixon.

David Rosenberg preaching doom? Well we should definitely listen, because he’s accurately predicted 912 of the last 3 recessions.

This dude is the ultimate broken record.

Whaaaaaat. The CPC is taking their talking points from billionaires and corporate lobbyists and lying to Canadians either directly or indirectly in order to manipulate voter support?

SURELY this has never been done by the CPC before!

LOL, they’re not going to reduce your taxes, silly plebe

It would be really nice if the PostMedia group would get a little bit more subtle about the fact Corporate Canada is balls-deep in their ass on the regular.

“Billionaire Nepo Baby Sitting on Massive Unrealized Capital Gain Windfall Upset He Will Pay Fair Taxes”

There, I fixed it for you.

End the capital-gains exemption for principal residences. It’s even more untouchable than OAS. It’s also more economically harmful and inequitable.

It pumps up housing prices and pushes more and more national wealth into housing. It’s dumb economics, plus the tax break only goes to the two-thirds of families who own a home. And the richer you are, and the more home you own, the bigger the tax break. It adds up to a hyper-regressive policy to make Canada less productive.

Eh, I’m going to punt this one because it’s an asset that most people want to own, but housing is a necessity as well.

I’m going to counter with:

• no non-human ownership of single family homes, no trusts, no corps, no foundations, etc.
• no interest cost deductions against rental income for landlords
• 50% of rental payments can be deducted against income for renters

That way one perk of personal, principal home ownership is still there, but at the same time fucking landlords can piss right off, and renters get a major tax-reducing benefit to boost net income for what are usually lower income earners too.

As policy it’s incomplete, but I think as ideas it at least will level the playing field a little bit.

More absolutely shit, unnecessarily argumentative policy from an absolutely shit, unnecessarily argumentative asshole of a premier.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:

The most provable cause of inflation is the increase in talking about expectations of inflation.

In simpler language: Once we / the media starts talking about how we should expect inflation, corporations take that as permission to raise prices.
