Canadian Dental Care Plan now open to All Canadians who don’t have coverage & household income below $90K/year in c/[email protected]

I've heard from dental professionals that the program isn't ideal, but it's a starting point. It only covers part of the costs, so dentists either have to absorb the remaining expenses or patients end up paying the difference. Plus, it only covers very basic procedures.

How do Fair Vote supporters view the local representation trade-off in Proportional Representation? (lemmy.ca)
 

Hi all,

I’ve been thinking about the pros and cons of proportional representation (PR) versus first-past-the-post (FPTP) systems, and one issue keeps coming up that I’d like to get your perspective on.

In large countries where populations are concentrated in a few big cities, PR systems can weaken the direct link between voters and a single local representative. Unlike FPTP, where each constituency elects one MP who directly represents that community.

FPTP allows voters to elect an MP who is accountable to their specific community and can be voted out if they don’t perform well. This local accountability and clear geographic representation seems as a major advantage.

So my question to the Fair Vote community is: how do you weigh this trade-off? Is the potential weakening of local representation in PR an acceptable downside given the gains in proportionality and inclusiveness? Or do you think there are ways to design PR systems that preserve strong local representation while also improving proportionality?

Would love to hear your thoughts and any examples or experiences you might share.

Thanks!

Nice! My current choice has been Pink Goo, another indica strain. I'll give yours a try!

That's true, but it applies to any versioning system. If they're not following semver and just mentioning breaking changes in their changelog, we'll inevitably run into situations where developers make mistakes.

That's one of the reasons I favour Semantic Versioning...

Is there something like a Lemmy distributed instance? (lemmy.ca)
 

I’m just wondering if there is an implementation of a Lemmy instance that is distributed? As if multiple servers could host the same instance, e.g. lemmy.ca. This would help to reduce the load and cost of an instance. Also it would make it harder for an instance to get abandoned.
