I knew I was missing at least one other instance. What a jackass.

DeSantis does love to fuck around. He never learns anything from the finding out he later recieves, but oh my he does love him some fuckery.

This isn’t even the first time he’s done this, remember what happened with Covid and Asian Americans? Just look at the hate groups that support him, he never really distances himself from them, and he riles them up or gives them a target whenever it behooves him to do so.

So, if his divestment of such a large amount shares in either company would have a negative impact on stock price, wouldn’t the other share holders have a say in the matter? They typically frown upon someone acting in a manner that will devalue their share prices. I’m honestly asking bc I don’t know the ins and outs, but I would assume that if Elon were to just try and sell shares to pay off his problem the pitch forks are going to come out from other share holders.

Also, wouldn’t the banks potentially be in a conflict of interest? Presumably those institutions who gave him the loans have invested clients money into those stocks potentially? Again, just asking the question, bc this seems like a major boondoggle that could really fuck over a lot of people in a variety of ways.

Sorry, I was just referring to the interview itself.

That’s overly simplified. Provinces don’t all recieve the same amount of Federal funding for healthcare. Alberta recieved about 6 billion in Federal funding for healthcare, while PEI recieved about 223 million in 2023. Alberta can afford to pay Healthcare professionals more and have been poaching those professionals from Atlantic Canada creating crises in places like Nova Scotia where the population has greatly increased through the pandemic. So, yes of course if you pay those professionals more you’ll solve problems in some places and cause more problems elsewhere.

Now, provinces can up their own taxes to make up for short falls, but guess how popular that will make the ruling parties that chose that.

The solution needs to be a lot more nuanced than just pay them more.

Edit: clarification

It’s called the “Paradox of Tolerance” if we are tolerant of all including the intolerant than intolerance will eventually win out and eliminate tolerance, therefore society should not tolerate the intolerant.

Hurray! Thanks!

Sorry, it was the 7th last year. I forgot it falls on the first Monday of August each year.

It’s a civic holiday that celebrates the founding of Halifax and Dartmouth, but all of Nova Scotia now celebrates it as a civic holiday. Most provinces have their own version falling on the same day, but as a Nova Scotian, I’m biased. The Nova Scotia flag or our tartan patterned onto the Lemmy symbol would be a way to go. The bluenose, and Peggy’s Cove lighthouse are also well known icons, but probably harder to incorporate. You could also go with a blue nose, as we’re known as Blue Nosers (named after a potato), but that might be confusing.

Natal Day, the first Monday of August to celebrate Nova Scotia. Pay no mind to those other provinces’ celebrations on the same day.
