So am I missing something?

Our dipshit PM decided it would be a good idea to give federal employees another paid holiday we don't get at our expense?

Maybe I am against tradition but I don't see how some old woman dying justifies stealing more money from the taxpayers. What an insult.

Same thing with reconciliation day. Those who oppressed the indigenous decided it would be appropriate to give themselves a paid holiday at everyone else's expense?

Clearly they have no shame.

The queen one I get. We're a commonwealth nation. This is a once in lifetime history type thing. 70yrs on throne etc.
But what happens when king Charles dies? Another holiday? Bad precedent to start I suppose.
And the reconciliation day...I'm still waiting for them to find any bodies.
Alberta doesn't recognize it but my company does. And all the unions will be fighting for it to be a holiday.

Schools will close in BC lol

All due respect to Ol' Lizzy but fuck the monarchy, at a time when society is rapidly sorting itself into serfs bonded to nobility the last thing we need is to keep worshipping literal aristocrats.

We get the reconciliation day starting next year. Not sure how I feel about it. Obviously a day off with pay is nice but it does not seem right.

It's a race to the bottom right now. Very controversial imo. Don't like the direction we are headed. The idea that parliament can just use xx reason to give themselves a paid day off at our expense is a scary precedent.

I’m glad he won, cause he can’t win a general election. Freeland on deck.

Pierre is the biggest political clown I've ever seen. The guy is dangerous.
