Yeah, I saw that and assumed they'd be torrents of the metadata.

Does anyone see the torrent links?

I'm not going to disagree.

I don't think so. We say and do things depending on interactions between people's prevailing attitudes, corporate interests and economic pressures. Some things are easier to say and do than others. Some things are desirable to say by more Canadians than others. Corporate interests are more aligned with some actions than others. I'm not making a moral judgement as to whetger we should be vocal about Venezuela. Personally, I'd like us to be but I'm not sure it's a good idea for Canada as a whole. I'm also making a suggestion on how we could put ourselves in a material position to be able to say and do more for people under threat.

Not quite. We're not much in a position to say much on this. Until we get out of our economic dependence on the US, being too vocal could make things worse for us without making things better for Venezuela. If we want to be able to do something we could perhaps send aid to the region. But more so get out of under the US'es thumb. If we gain independence, we'd be able to do material contribitions in events like this.

That's sounds like a great idea but it isn't who yours and your MPs' corporate-linked donors would ask you to hire. 🤭

Some items from the list:

• Dairy
• Streaming (CanCon reqs)
• Provinvial liquor bans

This must be sarcasm.

I donate monthly (recurring) to:

• Lemmy development: https://join-lemmy.org/donate
• Our Lemmy instance: https://fedecan.ca/en/donate

Currently most large instances are well funded so I'd personally focus on development funding.

If they really have a working EUV prototype, that would be a pretty massive achievement.

To expand a bit, the US embargo makes it so third countries don't sell to Cuba. E.g. French firms no longer sell equipment and service needed for maintaining the electric system. Even if Cuba can afford it.
