In a council it's probably not a bad idea to have a spread of ages for a bunch of reasons. You don't want all old people but you don't want all young people either.

Representation should be related to demographics in Canada if we really want what's best for our population. We really just have a bunch of rich people in politics trying to decide what's best for us poors and it's clearly not working.

biden may be getting senile but trump at his best was/is still a dimwit

So there’s some article that popped up on my Facebook feed about this 101 year old woman thay wanted to keep her job at the airport or somthing and they finally agreed.
So typical me I waded into the comments and the first one is somthing along the lines of “United has plenty of 80+ year old flight attendants and they are amazing!!”
So I reply, given the requirements of a flight attendant and having them responsible for evacuation and the safety of passengers I’d it’s bordering on negligence of the airline to allow 80+ year old flight attendants If thats actually the case.
Then people just storm my comment saying “omg you’re so wrong!!! Etc etc”
lol fuck

The big difference between trump and Biden is who they have surrounding them.
trump was surrounded by yes men who would run around like a bunch of shit rats when trump would say something stupid like hurricane Dorian was on the path to hit Alabama.
Biden on the other hand is surrounded by a bunch of very smart people who are willing to speak there mind and Biden is willing to listen to.

Or has to be at least.
For as old and "senile" Biden is, which by the way in his 2 years as president have we seen any real examples to show he's out of his damn mind? I can't recall any.
Trump's presidency was a total dumpster fire, juxtaposed, Biden's has been quite regular and benign. An effective, and typical, corporate Democrat.

Know what else Roosevelt said?
“This country has nothing to fear from the crooked man who fails. We put him in jail. It is the crooked man who succeeds who is a threat to this country.”

What the fuck is going on. https://apple.news/A4gi1UGNDSLGEo5qr2-F2bg Quote:
abortion rally to assemble on Parliament Hill
OTTAWA - An annual anti-abortion rally is set to converge on Parliament Hill today, a demonstration that typically attracts thousands.
The March for Life protest comes as the re-emergence of the landmark Roe v. Wade case in the United States brings renewed attention to the issue on both sides of the border.
Anti-abortion group Campaign Life Coalition spoke Wednesday in front of the Supreme Court of Canada to discuss the implications of the leaked U.S. Supreme Court decision.
Pete Baklinski, director of communications for the coalition, says the leaked document has made the issue of abortion "suddenly explode" in Canada.
Josie Luetke, youth co-coordinator, says the coalition expects that Roe v. Wade will eventually be overturned, representing one step toward "abolishing abortions" in the United States and across the world, including in Canada.
A counter-demonstration by abortion rights advocates will also take place near Parliament today.
