The last residential school didn’t close until 1997.

My guess (if Trudeau is ousted) is Mark Carney.

Canadians know him well and respect him a lot. He could be the only choice at this point.

You assume that the article you referenced in your original post is the final say on type 2 diabetes.

I would recommend you do some more research on the subject.

From the Mayo Clinic

Factors that may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes include:

• Weight. Being overweight or obese is a main risk.
• Fat distribution. Storing fat mainly in the abdomen — rather than the hips and thighs — indicates a greater risk. The risk of type 2 diabetes is higher in men with a waist circumference above 40 inches (101.6 centimeters) and in women with a waist measurement above 35 inches (88.9 centimeters).
• Inactivity. The less active a person is, the greater the risk. Physical activity helps control weight, uses up glucose as energy and makes cells more sensitive to insulin.
• Family history. An individual’s risk of type 2 diabetes increases if a parent or sibling has type 2 diabetes.
• Race and ethnicity. Although it’s unclear why, people of certain races and ethnicities — including Black, Hispanic, Native American and Asian people, and Pacific Islanders — are more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than white people are.
• Blood lipid levels. An increased risk is associated with low levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol — the “good” cholesterol — and high levels of triglycerides.
• Age. The risk of type 2 diabetes increases with age, especially after age 35.
• Prediabetes. Prediabetes is a condition in which the blood sugar level is higher than normal, but not high enough to be classified as diabetes. Left untreated, prediabetes often progresses to type 2 diabetes.
• Pregnancy-related risks. The risk of developing type 2 diabetes is higher in people who had gestational diabetes when they were pregnant and in those who gave birth to a baby weighing more than 9 pounds (4 kilograms).
• Polycystic ovary syndrome. Having polycystic ovary syndrome — a condition characterized by irregular menstrual periods, excess hair growth and obesity — increases the risk of diabetes.

No direct punishment I can find. Some of the churches have offered apologies and some have been sued.

According to charging documents, Mr Macartney, who lives in the US state of Virginia, is accused by prosecutors of collecting funds from his chat groups and distributing videos depicting the “torture, murder, and sexually sadistic mutilation of animals, specifically juvenile and adult monkeys”.

My guess is they heard about the money monkey-killer dude was raking in and thought they try the same.

Fucking assholes.

You said …

But I’m on the fence with type 2, since it’s a completely preventable, and reversible lifestyle illness that only requires patient education and accountability.

Someone refusing to look after their own health shouldn’t be a burden on the healthcare system or taxpayers, IMO.

I didn’t ‘misinterpret’ anything. You blamed people for having type 2 diabetes, added a quote you took out of context, and generally alluded to the assumption that anyone with type 2 diabetes should be left to their own devices.

Adding Blaine Higgs (NB), Scott Moe (Saskabush) and Danielle Smith (Hellberta) to that list as well.

I didn’t ‘misunderstand’ anything.

This is all on you buddy.

Looks like the Liberals are following the US Democrats’ playbook.

Canada currently has a shortage of physicians and other healthcare workers, and 6 million Canadians don’t have a family Dr (source).

But you want all those people - even ones living in remote regions with zero access to physicians-- to be forced to toe the line you’ve drawn in the sand?

I imagine you support the Conservatives as well.

Maybe the cops just saw the colour of mom’s skin and figured the case was solved with exactly zero evidence.

Opposition Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre, whose party is ahead in national polls by a wide margin, does not support the legislation.

Canada needs to be reminded of this come next election.

As always, ACAB.

Money from being a politician. Dude’s become a multi-millionaire from politics, not work.

After she got the boot from the UCP party for her comments, she was elected as an independent.

She is a true representative of the shit-cookie lovin’ people.

Despite the comments, Johnson was elected in May as an independent member.

The CRTC is trying as hard as they can to shut the door on an empty barn.

If only they’d thought of reigning in the big three 10 years ago we wouldn’t be in this data shithole.

My fixed income is just over $16k per year. I’ve had to downsize from a house to a bachelor appt to a bedroom, so now have limited access to refrigerator and freezer space. But at least I live in a city where I have access to somewhat resonably-priced food. The same cannot be said for those living in small towns or remote regions where prices can be double (or more) of city prices.

I’m sure that our ideas of what is not very expensive are very different.

I recently found out why my beef gravies/soups didn’t have that depth my grandma’s had … seems you have to add a bit of tomato paste/sauce to it. Something in the tomato brings it out.

Made a world of difference.
