2/ The presence of prayer in the house caught my attention. In a diverse province, it raises questions about how we decide who to worship. Many municipalities have stopped this practice. The behavior changed significantly once the Lord's Prayer concluded.
3/ There's a lot of jeering, talking over each other, and theatrics in the legislature. It is a common occurrence among most parties, although some are more aggressive. This performative behavior is geared toward the cameras.

Listen, I don't want anymore f***ing trolls coming into my threads trying to tell me who I am. I am CLEARLY stating right here, right now that I don't and never will embrace that f***ing title "provider". Why? Because it is a verbal construct of the corporate practice of medicine
