    The article refers to it as the “Newfoundland Curse”. You don’t call a stranger anything less formal than a Newfoundlander. While it’s not a slur to use the word you did, it is associated with a lot of bad feelings and shameful behaviour. It is best to use it only with people you are close and friendly with. I’d certainly never put it in metadata.


  • While it’s true that Trump is a legitimate threat to our security and even our sovereignty, I think it’s also true that nearly every MLA in Canada (ie MPs, MPPs, and other MLAs) are exaggerating their concerns in an attempt to consolidate power. Donald might not be clear on the details, but he knows how the game is played.

    This is a Naomi Kline-esque “shock” and we are getting fucked from both sides right now. Those claiming to be our friends, are not our friends.
