I think it's high time they showed us literally anything from "Academy." Footage would be great, photos would be acceptable.

The low end of the merchandise continuum seems to be their biggest weakness. This higher-detail, higher-end stuff is plentiful, but the prices are unreal.

Yeah let's face it if you're going to own a model Gorn, this is the one you want.

All Gorn are beautiful!

They seem to be playing things close to the vest for now, but I'm sure that will all come out in time.

Riker claimed in “Lonely Among Us” that humans ”no longer enslave animals for food purposes.”

There are so many other purposes.

policies and legislation that undermine competitiveness, delay project development and disproportionately harm specific provinces and territories without any quantifiable benefits to the natural environment

What.

I'm not 100% certain, but the new season might show up on Crave, as well.

Which is also something you have to pay for, of course, but at least there are options?

Throughout the spring federal election campaign, Mark Carney as Liberal leader repeatedly vowed to "eliminate" interprovincial trade barriers and create "free trade by Canada Day."

But Canada's internal trade barriers won't all be eliminated by then — not even all the federal ones.

Canada's supply management system for dairy products, which sets provincial production quotas, will remain. Quebec also has language requirements that will stay in place.

It's geographically impossible for Canada to completely eliminate trade with the US.

I absolutely agree that it should be minimized, though.

Agreed. If there's a greater purpose here, keeping it from Canadians is a pretty big blunder.

Even if we reach a deal, it’s not like Trump is stable or trustworthy enough to honour it.

I don't think this is entirely true - Trump is obviously not trustworthy, but the government has been able to leverage CUSMA to lessen the impact of the attempted tariffs. There seems to be some benefit to having a formal deal in place.

But I'm definitely not comfortable with this capitulation at all.
