  • This is especially French. In Quebec we have very different insults. Here we could for example say : Ostie de calisse de tabarnak de crisse d’épais de viarge. We can use some of those words as verbs too, like : M’en va t’en crisser une! Or m’en va t’en calisser une. It can also be positive like : ça c’est une calisse de bonne toune! Shouting a “Tabarnak!” Is very satisfying.

    The main difference is that French insults are mainly centered around sex. In Quebec it’s mainly around religion.

    There is a whole article on Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebec_French_profanity



  • While I agree, it surly is not how the CPC sees it. The CPC had an historic participation and only a circonscription had to vote for Pierre. In a way, he was rejected by his constituents, but not by Canada. If it wasn’t for the NDP partisans that voted liberals, we probably would have a conservative government. So yeah… I’m not hopeful for the future, next elections might be deceiving.


  • Immigration makes the housing demand worse, but most anti-immigration arguments completely forget that they help with the supply by bringing manpower to build the homes. So in a healthy market, it would balance it out. Unfortunately, both of you touch on a few points that makes this market unhealthy, so supply is restricted way too much. Bringing more manpower doesn’t help since it’s not the bottleneck.

    The anti-immigration arguments are mainly from the racist right that looks for a boogyman while ignoring the real causes of our issues.








  • I had muscle memory, but I think it was QRRASE or something like that then put on weapon. Next time you attack, you cast a row of exploding icicles that put wet status and electrocute your enemies and really slow them down. Almost nothing in the game can resist. It makes the game stupid easy. You kill any boss in a few hits. You can also cast it around you, but it’s way too easy to kill yourself. The combo is hard to pull off the few first time, but once you get the touch, you’re unstoppable.

    Also, cast SAFE on you regularly, easy to remember and its a very strong defense.

    A lot of people use a combination of QFQFASA beam. It’s high damage, but you’re a sitting duck, never liked it.








  • No, nothing in ranked choice voting says that it becomes proportional representation. Ranked choice voting in the same first past the post system still stays first past the post. If you want proportional representation, it’s not it.

    This is a debated topic where I live. Our current PM would love ranked choice voting because it would solidify their position, kill most changes of a conservative victory and eliminate any chance of most other parties to have a meaningful impact on the government. That’s why he abandoned the electoral reform because every commity and experts said that it would be way worse for democracy.
