  • Calgary was facing a big infrastructure cost to update our EOL fluoridation system. Three counsellors drove the charge to get rid of fluoridation entirely: a ‘stop all government spending!’ con, an anti-science earth mother type, and a progressive who kept screaming ‘we need to address dental care as a societal issue!’

    And so we saw tooth decay climb for a decade. When we finally decided to put it back in, the cost was higher than the initial upgrade plus a decade of maintenance would have cost.

    Idjits,



  • I don’t know anyone who disinfects their blades, or generally takes them out between shaves. Just rinse the razor in hot water and hang it in a stand to dry.

    Different blades work for different people - hair, skin, sensitivity, and technique vary, so try a dozen different blades and decide what works best for you.

    After 30 years of different products, Henri et Victoria have become my go-to for soap. They make great shaving stuff in general, and have a vegan option.

    As you get more comfortable with your razor, pay close attention to its angle to your skin.
