nah biology discoveries are always like “we thought this lesser spotted derpy pig didn’t have big enough spots. turns out it’s a new species” or “this protein turns out to be less curly and more squiggly when the fruit flies are having a lot of sex”

That’s just like, your opinion man

increasing Canada’s defence spending to two per cent of its gross domestic product, reforming immigration through “better gatekeepers,” making life more affordable by “dismantling protectionism” and increasing competition in the airline, telecommunications and agricultural sectors
