According to them no one can get anything accomplished in 2 years

The difference is that it's a lot easier and faster to break things than it is to build or repair them.

The families didn't pay for this, The Onion did.

The families support was not financial in this .

And woe if someone dies, gets sick, or retires

Out of over 200 people, all of those are statistically likely over a 4 year period.

Assuming he doesn't change the rules and appoint himself president forever, then the limit is 2 terms, consecutive or not.

Even if a person started their presidential mandate partway through a 4 year cycle (as happened after Nixon stepped down and after Kennedy was shot), it's still 2 terms, not necessarily 8 years.

If Trump dies in the next 4 years, Vance could serve out the current term and would only be eligible to become president for one additional term.

If we can keep PP to a minority we can still limit the damage he can cause.

If you were under the illusion that Trump is going to improve the situation for the Palestinians in any way, I have a bridge to sell you...

Inconsistency is the only thing Trump can be counted on to do reliably.

Trump hires the worst people and creates a toxic "vie for the king's attention" atmosphere.

Now thats a mutually assured destruction scenario I'd be in favor of.

You don't fix things by picking the worse option on purpose.

That's exactly what the electorate just did.

That's utter lunacy.

I fully agree

The trend isn't confined to the Bow Valley or even to Alberta. The federal government has temporarily eased limits on how many temporary foreign workers a business can hire in low-wage positions, and employers across Canada have increasingly made use of the program.
