That’s devastating, the kind of power behind that and with how fast it must have moved I doubt there was much of a chance for those in the way to escape. Not much you can do to stop a massive glacier like that from collapsing in this warming world. The people affected by this have my deepest sympathies.

made in my hometown of Belleville!

Kühn noted that the SFC is now able to hire a full-time litigation attorney

Great to hear! that’s not really enough to take take on large corporate offenders though, donate if you can!

yes but you must declare it. anything greater then $10,000 CAD must be declared. see https://www.canibringto.com/can-i-bring/cash-to-canada/, https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/declare-eng.html#_s6

Now’s the time to simply match the tariffs dollar for dollar and refuse to respond to anything but a concession by the US. If they keep playing dumb games like changing the agreement last minute they were never interested in a deal. Maybe Carney can be more specific now on what is affected and who specifically is targeted. it’d be great if there was a list of business’ affected and their products so we could buy more domestically. the list of tariffs sounded weirdly targeted at certain business’ to me.

Honestly as long as we don’t give in to the stupid military procurement crap(F35s, E7 Wedgetail, & Golden Dome) that was being floated I’m ok with the alcohol back on the shelves(alcohol is a dumb consumer good we can easily replace. Military hardware and contracts not so much). it costs us very little and can be re-implemented fast if that idiot plays dumb games. Let him strut around like some dumb peacock that got a big win while i refuse to buy it. If we can ship the oil south to keep Alberta placated with a bunch of new pipelines to busy themselves with that O&G Execs realize only get completed if the referendum fails, the referendum will get crushed and we can go back to focusing on electrification/EV’s/Transit for Canada as a whole and replacing our dumbass premier’s that have gotten cover from “Donny Dumbass”. Hopefully with everything else going so shittily for the him, he’ll be too distracted till after midterms that we can negotiate the rest of this horseshit away during CUSMA re-negotiations.

1. The Genie explains the only way to make all your wishes exactly the way you want would take an all knowing, all powerful being to deal with any possible side affect at any arbitrary time period. If genie granted that in your human form you’d go crazy and die, you might argue that this isn’t what you meant but you’d also be dead so the genie would think this must have been foreseen and a known consequence of becoming all knowing as a limited being… never mind the whole messing with higher powers argument rule.
2. even if you gave up wish 1 you only get 3 wishes! no new wishes, but the genie says he will allow you to use your last wish on others if you wish…

1. a state of pure anarchy comes about due to the inability to the inability to maximize the well being of the people they represent to any extent as no method of measurement is defined and as one manages to maximize one metric it minimizes others making public officials disappear!
2. you discover FTL propulsion as you fall into a black hole and share it with others on the same ship. unfortunately even if you find a way to escape it eons have passed and either everyone already is aware of FTL travel, or they have disappeared with the heat death of the universe.
3. unfortunately this affects higher powers!

it was, for the asteroid!

the shear amount of bad karma this caused through this wish comes back to you as Bad Karma. maybe stay home for a bit.

In the chaos that this causes you get final destinationed by a logging truck that has a crazy driver losing his mind because of proclamations of the end times. Genie didn’t even monkeys paw that one. it just happened

The genie clammed up when discussing the true source or nature of his power. needless to say genie can work within the constraints given. natural law be damned :)

It said Genie had to place it next to them neatly. Genie just had to make the asteroid indestructable or very hard to not take damage and the speed by which it got there was enough to destroy everything around it. see the multiple meteorites whose simple sound shattered windows for miles

1 the genie drops an asteroid down next to you making sure the asteroid is safe. You… maybe not so much. the genie likes specificity and conciseness and only had to give 1 wish. :)

The genie has a hard time calling it “replacing” blood with molten salt with blood making up so much of the human body and what is left destroying itself almost instantly when exposed to molten salt that all you’d really get is a molten salt shaped human and some bones in a pile after. genies also pretty sure the moment he poofs away the blood there already dead so this is just an over complicated way of throwing someone into a molten pit of salt. Your going to have to trust the genie on this one.

The quantity and speed govern energy, remember the genie was just confronted with the worst of humanity what if the genie decides all of humanity needs a reset with lots from everywhere destroying us all?

This is why the genie was worried, asking a genie for revenge or destruction almost always goes terribly wrong if only on principle of the genie not bring a hitman and is looking for equal ways to turn it against the wisher.

shared experiences is just neurons in our brain. basically add more and link them together.

If you can leave genie on hold for 7 months genie’s leaving you on hold till your dead before granting your wish (genie was pretty damn offended here, this is worse than the war crime stuff for him!)

The Genie thinks you haven’t really thought this through, replacing blood with molten salt isn’t physically possible and asking for mini rods from god to be launched from orbit at earth leaves it open to the genie how many and how much force to use. the Genie thinks you either don’t respect the monkeys paw his powers or maybe that you want us all dead anyway :(

The genie does indeed respect the intent but is pretty heavily incentivized to screw it up, the genie, drives us all insane by making us all live each others shared experiences so we can all be truly empathetic. he also coincidentally got all the bad guys/gals.

The reality is the genie gave you your 3 beer wishes and appreciated the simplicity of the ask so told the bartender to bill genie for the rest of your beers tonight and a cab home. No monkeys paw for those wishes.
