    With all this pickle talk on and Facebook I’ve just realized I have pickles from and gave to me that should be perfectly delicious by now. It’s normal to plan an entire meal around pickles right?

    To put this number in perspective, the 2017-2018 budget for children's benefits was $23.4 billion. So, according to the CHRT ruling, a one-time 34% increase in the budget would make up for centuries of deliberate underfunding of Indigenous kids. Canada would be getting a deal
