Why should we have to opt out of our devices spying on our LAN?

Thanks for sharing. This reflects my own views and experiences so well.

All of that said, we got our revenge for the Arrow by replacing all the Boeing executives with McConnell Douglas executives who screwed up the entire corporation.

How did we ever allow Black Friday sales into Canada? That’s what Boxing Day is for!

Just another example of Canadian culture and commerce being steamrolled by the US.

So… I don’t watch videos; anyone have a bulleted list?

The only ones I know about are the LM supply chain, US telematics control and US-centric command and control system on the F-35.

In essence, every F-35 sold is a part of the US Air Force one way or the other.

Not only can I, I did in the comment you’re replying to :)

But I’m more than happy at the number of people who downvoted it for thinking it was a “this will never work” comment and expanding on why it will definitely improve things.

The only problem with the article is the headline; the actual plan is right on point.

Start with affordable housing. Then with community support (both assisted living and a structure to help people integrate into community that want to). Then possibly basic income? Then community design that fits various expectations, so it’s not all based around commuter living.

After that, acceptance that there are some people who don’t want to be housed, along with continual outreach so they always know it’s an option.

Wab Kinew’s approach involves moving thousands of unhoused people into permanent homes

If it were that simple, homelessness would have been solved years ago.

There are multiple reasons for being homeless in the first place, two of which are: nobody wants to live near the person, and the person doesn’t want to live near others. Then there’s mental issues and substance abuse that mean people need support they may not want, in order to live in a manner which they don’t desire.

So sure… provide a place to sleep for everyone. That’s an essential first step. But that still won’t result in everyone being housed, as some will refuse to live by the rules imposed on them by others that are an explicit or implicit condition of that housing.

Nobody wins in a trade war.

It’s what we did for resource projects back in the day (mining, smelting, mills, etc).

I’d go further and say that any new data centre project must also fund a renewable energy project to offset its energy requirements.

FT did the same thing.

There’s no poaching going on… just trying to be more attractive than China and Germany to academics fleeing the US.

I’m confused; “soda” is the American term isn’t it? I’ve never heard it called that in Canada; only pop and soda pop.

For them, logic works both ways; they can persecute the academics and cut their funding to own the libs while also threaten war on Canada for stealing the same people.

I think FT will find that it’s not poaching; that’s just where the educators fleeing the US landed.

Canada’s not trying to woo US educators to Canada; they’re trying to be more attractive than Germany and China to those already leaving.

But as this trade war ramps up, we’re going to see an increase in this “Canada stealing our <insert thing here> rhetoric out of US media.

Replying to my own question:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebecor

It’s owned by Quebecor Inc, a fully Canadian conglomerate traded on the TSX.

So if you aren’t sure about the trustworthiness of an independent paper, there’s at least one fully Canadian media conglomerate besides CBC.

Who owns Quebecor Media now?

That’s great that we’re getting a domestic payment processor.

Now when are we getting a domestic credit agency?

TransUnion, Experion and friends shouldn’t really be allowed to do business in Canada.

Not anymore….
