  1. My uncle stopped eating meat, and now he’s lecturing everyone to give it up. He cites all this stuff from medical journals and other scientific research showing the harmful long-term effects of eating red meat. But he ate red meat most of his life, so why should I listen to him?

 

  1. The Ford government has introduced harsh penalties for businesses that price gouge the public (charge significantly higher prices for certain products, e.g. hand sanitizer, disinfectant wipes). But I need to charge more for these products because I need to pay my monthly Rogers “Ignite Internet” and Netflix bills.

  1. BMWs are a pile a junk. I have two friends who drive BMWs, and both of them have had nothing but trouble from those cars
