I’ve been wondering this past week if Canada Post could take advantage of this angst against America that we are all feeling, and start an all Canadian Amazon competitor. I mean Canada Post would for sure find a way to fuck this up, but they’ve already got the shipping network on lock. Start a marketplace.

This has to stop. OMG

Will someone please, for the love of God, get this organization an accountant and a financial planner?

No matter how much money we give these guys, the state of crime and this city continues to decline. Enough.

I’m just waiting for Cocaine Carney. You just know it’s coming.

Shopify can go toss a salad.

Fuck Singh, he’s just as sus as PP is. What does he think he’s going to accomplish here? Would it not be just as well to keep some order, while the country faces it’s biggest threat in probably 200 years?

It’s well known. I’m actually a polisci grad from another university, we all knew that if it was boot licking conservative, we didn’t even need to look at the header, we knew where it came from. I mean sure, it’s important not to paint people with wide swath brushes, but that school is heavily heavily tainted with conservative one-track mind.

Edit: I should point out, just to your point, like a famous grad of UofC was Naheed Nenshi, so non-cons exist there. But the issue at the UofC, for every Nenshi there’s like five Danielle Smiths. Makes sense, I mean Alberta is a con stronghold, and has been since forever pretty much. So it goes to say of course the UofC is too. But it’s just a bit over the top.

I actually don’t disagree with you. I’m a big proponent of do as I do, not rules for thee but not for me. Oh gosh do I hate rules for thee, but not for me. Grrrrr it boils my blood.

I have to give this one a go. I’m not even Vegan, but I sure am one of the world’s biggest poutine fans, and I’ve found with poutine, the more unique the better.

Au contraire. I’m a manager who enjoys work remotely. I don’t give a shit what my team is doing or where they are doing it from, or when, or whatever. As long as they are comfortable.

The formula is something like: People’s comfort x Shit gets done + my bosses are satisfied at shit getting done so they leave me the fuck alone= happy me.

Jagmeet did a good enough job navigating through the minority situation, like Canadians in the middle class are actually much better off with having had him where he was, and for the work he got done. The pure irony is though, those very same Canadians are screaming for PP. The tyranny of the majority…

You must be referring to Patronage Poilievre. He’s definitely got some small PP energy for sure.

The irony is, the FPTP system is now likely going to hammer the Liberals into oblivion. Funny how that ol’ irony works.

The only thing I’m scared of, is the Michael Ignatieff effect. The liberals have tried this one before. Michael Ignatieff is on a plane that is well beyond any of our comprehension. Which works really well in academia, but not so well when it comes to trying to deal with the common world and to level with the common man.

This guy sure as shit ain’t a dummy, and I’ve actually had the pleasure of being at lectures with him, and buddy is pretty gosh darn smart. We’d be a better nation with him leading us for a little while. Problem is, half the population are wearing raccoon hats and railing ivermectin, and cheering over transport truck horns from parking lot encampments in the middle of nowhere. The other half gets their education solely from Facebook. We are still pretty fucked, me be thinking. He’s polling well as a liberal, but the polls at the macro level are still looking like a clear CON blood bath across the country.

Let me introduce you to the world where Boomers ALWAYS win!

Yet they still complain…

And it’s UofC. You can have all the free thought you want at the UofC, as long as it’s conservative in nature.

HELP!!

OH NO!!!

One of the world’s leading economists is trying to “interfere” with the BoC

Oh no!!

I mean PP is going to interfere with them too. Sure know which one I’d rather have “interfering”

Also this article reeks of a CON attempt (aka it’s blatantly obvious and pretty stupid) to discredit Carney through misinformation.

I’d vote for the Bloc Quebecois before I’d vote for PP, and I live in Alberta. I mean it too.

Can hardly wait for our days with Trump wanna be Jr.

Buddy is going to figure out the hard way day 1 that there’s more to leading a country than hurling insults at others. But then will just carry on doing so, while everything else melts around him.

Hopefully a good couple months of watching what’s going on down south will smarten every one up, but I have zero faith and a whole lot of doubt that it will.

I use Dynamics365 as my accounting software to keep track of my own personal stuff, which is tied in pretty tightly with excel, I wouldn’t be able to export anything without it. Actually I’m not even sure I’d be able to use it at all really. I also use Word more often than one would think, just for general around the house things. My investments too, like I use excel exports to do analysis on tables of data, stuff like regression and 50 day/200 day plotting, and general chart analysis. Probably could maybe get away with that on the free stuff, I’m not sure.

You don’t need pro to do any of this. The normal Office Home license is sufficient. And for personal use, it would be a real son of a gun if you accidentally downloaded them off the office website and then went to https://massgrave.dev/ and by grave mistake typed in a few of those commands

You probably don’t for personal budgeting and tracking of items for tax purposes. Any run of the mill spreadsheet will work just fine for that purpose.

I’m a chartered accountant though, like think of me as a free agent if you will, I’m not tethered to anything or anyone. I do professional work or give professional advice in exchange for currencies of various origins. My work as such, is a bit more complicated, and I need Excel. Sometimes I have to shared access to files for instance, or I need to share a file with someone, who won’t have libre because they are using Excel locked behind a corporate environment they don’t control. Libre Calc does have some unique functions that I’d argue Excel doesn’t have, but on the flip side Excel has more advanced functions, and xlookup, which I pretty much use every day. Google Sheets isn’t even in this conversation, and I personally have a hard dislike for Google Workspace apps in every form.

It would be nice if there was an actual alternative, and I think Libre would probably be the closest viable one. The gap is narrowing. Microsoft Office is atrocious in price, but thankfully easily hackable though, although in a professional environment you have to be more careful with this, than you personally would care to be. It’s also a memory pig for absolutely no reason, and so full of historical bugs they haven’t cared to fix for 30+ years. Plus some new ones that are infuriating. And you could set Microsoft Word on fire with no complaints from me.
