It is so hard to sympathize with these people. I love the survey inthe middle of the article where 80% (17k people) said “No, the government should not help these people”. I can’t imagine anyone getting much sympathy from the common person if they are buying 1-2 million dollar homes.

I have a Suica (Japan’s Presto equivalent) in Tokyo and I can basically use that anywhere in the COUNTRY. The whole country basically does transit effectively the same way. You pay by distance. When you do it like that things quickly get simpler since all you are doing is just figuring out how far someone went and charge them that amount. I can also charge my suica anywhere I can use it which means I can charge it on a bus or even in a convenient store.

why is it that cities can’t do these roll outs? How hard can it be? Vancouver’s Compass card took forever to roll out, and it was also plagued with problems

I am not sure how I feel about removing all police floats from Pride. I feel like seeing the police and municipal leaders present is important. For a group that is all about being inclusive that seems a bit contradictory.

The police are simply the hired enemies of this population. They are present to keep the Negro in his place and to protect white business interests, and they have no other function. They are, moreover—even in a country which makes the very grave error of equating ignorance with simplicity—quite stunningly ignorant; and, since they know that they are hated, they are always afraid. One cannot possibly arrive at a more surefire formula for cruelty.

A police officer killed another man, Philando Castile, in Falcon Heights a few hours after I posted this. I’m not sure which execution was more flagrant.

I want to love Toronto but the city is good at regularly disappointing me.
Unrelated but how come this post the comment section said “Comment” instead of “#”?

That’s the rub, right. Most people who are going to argue against sex selection are probably the same people arguing for women to have full control over access to abortions. I’m sure it’s discussed in a medical ethics class or something.

I don’t quite understand why this is such a big story. Shouldn’t women be allowed to have abortions regardless of the reason? Or should they have their reasons reviewed by a citizen’s committee deciding whether it is appropriate?
