There are 5 participating restaurants in the Vancouver area.
There are also several participating restaurants in France.
lol this is so stupid:
so Moxie's in Kelowna, that's like 5 hour drive away
Beavertails in Victoria - 1 that's on Vancouver island, 2 that's a donut chain
so this leaves us with:
Moxies downtown - meh, chain restaurant
pourhouse - this looks alright!
bells and whistles - I CAN WALK HERE FROM MY HOUSE...oh wait "pigskin" poutine. brb throwing up

Man, pigskin is just pork rinds if prepared properly. Don't be a wuss! Sounds freakin' delicious to me.
(i'm jewish)
Ah, didn't know. Apologies, then.
hahah that's no problem, i've been known to dabble in the forbidden meat from time to time

I'm p sure those don't help keep the virus off you. I think they may help people who already have it not spread it as much by coughing or sneezing? Not sure.

I have a coworker with family in China and she sent some masks back to them since I guess its difficult finding them in China for a reasonable price as well now. So, also communism too?

N95 masks will help, but they're not.. not fun to wear. If you can breathe like normal, it's probably not sealed, kind of not fun.

Oh boy, union strike vote might be coming in the next couple weeks.
This is going to get legislated back to work so fast we're going to get whiplash.
I'm partial to Poutini's on Queen St. West myself. Something about their gravy is just too good to pass up.
Damnit. I wouldn't call it a 'diet', but I've been eating better this year.
This information is not helping.
Also that website got a laugh. Apparently there are 4 places listed for Toronto, 2 of which are way outside the downtown core (where I am), one of which was a food truck only open over the weekend (awwww, I might have tried that) and the other is only open Friday/Saturday/Sunday.
But, circling back to Poutinis and 'the list of things Forar isn't supposed to be eating'...
Best poutine I've ever had was while in Montreal for work, but a close second was while I was visiting friends in Calgary ages ago. Maybe I'm just easy to please, but for me it's pretty hard to fuck up that mix. Perhaps not having it very often means I've failed to become a proper connoisseur. We had like 3 different variations to share between us. It was a delicious, delicious mistake. One I'm possibly still paying for at the gym, many years later.
Boy, the Canadian thread really does get food based, and becomes surprisingly aggressive over the topic at that.
First they came for the Muslims, and we said NOT TODAY, MOTHERFUCKER!

Most of us touch our faces several times every hour, mindlessly, and this is often how we catch viral illnesses. Despite never being especially close to anyone sick, we self-infect by rubbing our nose or eye after touching a mucus-misted surface.
The physical barrier of an elective face mask could help protect us from ourselves, by minimizing inadvertent face touching.
Given the facts that it's not particularly virulent as far as contagious diseases go and we can currently count the number of cases in Canada on one somewhat-mangled hand, I feel pretty comfortable not being taken in by rampant profiteering and taking my chances through the same "maintain hygeine and don't lick any poles in public transit" approach that seems to work well enough through flu season.

Ontario Sen. Lynn Beyak is again facing suspension from the Red Chamber for failing to complete her anti-racism training — a project that started off on the wrong foot when she told her instructors she was Métis because her parents had adopted an Indigenous child.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is the first sentence of the article, which goes on at considerable length and just gets uglier and uglier from there.

That, ladies and gentlemen, is the first sentence of the article, which goes on at considerable length and just gets uglier and uglier from there.
I don't quite get how, but reading the article, she somehow managed to fail more or less all forms of anti-discrimination training simultaneously, and they were only targeting racism.
Also, even if you use the literal french meaning of "métis", which is something I rather doubt she would normally do, it only applies if your parents are a mixed first nation/not first nation couple.
It does not work when one of your sibling is from a first nation. Your parents are not supposed to be your siblings, if you are not a Hapsburg.
Yeah, there's no way she didn't go in there with anything other than hostile intent.
Her entire political identity at this point is "white good, native bad" and since the initial suspension she's stopped even trying to pretend otherwise, and once you're far enough to the right the idea of examining one's worldview is merely weakness, so...
"Peter MacKay 'not happy' with tweet needling Trudeau over yoga expenses. Conservative leadership candidate says he wants his campaign to have a more 'civilized' tone"
Also, he got fucking ROASTED on twitter over all the stupid shit the Cons have done over the year, himself most of all in reply to that tweet. Bee-yootiful.

Yeah, except he also says he agrees with the tweet and refuses to take it down. But he's disappointed with it and wants a more civil tone. Cake, eating it... But of course CBC won't call him on the obvious contradiction.
And I see CBC has decided that repeating whatever rando tweet critical of MacKay is not newsworthy. A fine and intelligent decision... that is the exact opposite of how they report about the Liberals, where even a single critical rando tweet is reported with a headline "Canadians furious at Trudeau".
*Liberals win a government without western representation*
Conservatives and the MSM: "How can they possibly govern without representation in every region? Oh my god the country is tearing itself apart!"
"Of the 129 Indigenous groups potentially affected by the project, 120 either support it or do not oppose it, the court found. Meanwhile, 43 Indigenous groups have signed benefit agreements with the proponent.
The four Indigenous groups that launched this legal challenge have 60 days to appeal the Federal Court of Appeal's decision to the Supreme Court."
save your breath liberals we know you give more of a shit about resource extraction, and if you still think "well why not give them money??" it shows you still have absolutely zero understanding of the situation and maybe its not always about fucking money

I heard from a source in the RCMP that "the natives would be taught a lesson"-that was a two weeks ago, when I asked the person about it(as they are stationed in that area and deal with native protesters all the time).
I cannot name my source as the information would dry up.
I can confirm from the tone, that the RCMP might be out for blood.
Do not spread unverifiable rumors like this here.
And it seems like all is dying, and would leave the world to mourn
Following a pre-dawn raid to remove Indigenous occupants from several camps in northern B.C. today, the RCMP is defending its practice of removing journalists from exclusion zones on the grounds that their reporting on the often violent specifics of enforcement actions constitutes a real and present danger to the public.
“It was very damaging to our relationship with Indigenous communities when journalists revealed that we had snipers in place and were prepared to use deadly force against the Wet’suwet’en during a raid in 2019, so it’s clearly in the best interests of everyone to keep journalists from revealing that kind of information about us in the future,” the RCMP statement went on to say.
At press time, no one knows what’s happening because all the press have been removed.

Personally, I find it abhorrent. Gravy or vinegar, one or the other but not both on fries.

And then they take the government to court and probably win.
Probably, considering how the progress has seemed to not be going on even talking about wages.
But oh god the headaches if we even get even a few days of work stoppage.

Go to Belgian Fries on Commercial instead?

The Atlantic had an article about this stuff; mainly it's to keep sickness from getting out of the masked person's face and into the world, but possibly:
Also on Steam and PSN: twobadcats
Because OG poutine is healthy?
I couldn't find a great pic but sorta

Can confirm. Shawarma over fries, topped with tahini sauce, garlic sauce and hot sauce is delicious.
Not poutine, but still delicious.
