  1. Mark Carney, January 2025: "Wages have not kept up with inflation, people are falling behind, not getting ahead (...) government has been not as focused on those issues as it could be. We need to focus on them immediately. That can happen now."

    Still waiting...

  3. "The bottom is falling out of our social safety net and we should be paying attention to these diagnostics rather than just hoping this problem goes away"

    It's October 2025, and one quarter of Canadians still can't afford to buy enough food to eat.

  5. I'm going to post the recipe for the dopiazeh aloo here. It was a fairly simple thing to make.

    I use a slap chopper thingy to cut ingredients because it cuts prep time down to maybe 5 minutes for me.. which is helpful on painful days.

    If anyone wants more details or has questions, please let me know.

    Otherwise, this was a fairly cheap and easy meal and it's made enough for a few days. I think it would probably freeze ok as well.

    Ingredients:
    3 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
    2 large onions, thinly sliced
    2 tablespoons vegetable oil
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 teaspoon turmeric
    1/2 teaspoon cumin
    1/2 teaspoon paprika
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon black pepper
    1 large tomato, diced
    1/2 teaspoon dried lime powder (optional)
    1/2 cup water or vegetable broth
    Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish

    Directions:
    Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add onions and cook until golden brown, about 10 minutes.

    Stir in garlic, turmeric, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for another minute until fragrant.

    Add the potatoes and stir to coat them with the spices.

    Pour in the tomatoes and water or broth. Stir well.

    Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are soft and the sauce thickens.

    Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Stir in dried lime powder if using.

    Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley and serve warm with rice or flatbread.

    他的基本思路是通过批量采购+按周制备,在保证营养和味道的前提下将单顿饭的成本压缩到两三美元

  12. Dinner Hack. 🍽️

    Sometimes I go all out. Sometimes I don't. This is one of those times where I turn struggle into quick, easy and I'll still dress it up to look fancy.

    1️⃣ Thawed frozen meatballs marinated in an Asian style sauce, then cooked in the Air Fryer.
    2️⃣ Roller Egg Rolls from QuikTrip (they're actually really tasty).
    3️⃣ Your favorite rice (white steamed, brown, vegetable fried). I highly recommend checking out the Dash Mini Rice Cooker.
