I think they're referring to government cloud use.

Oh hell no. Wouldn't something like this run against the Charter anyways? I assume the Canadian government would have to pass a law to comply. If such a law allows for contravening Charter rights, it would likely be struck down by the courts. Unless it uses the notwithstanding clause of course. But slapping that on such a law would be very politically tenuous, especially today.

We're perfectly optimistic about most technology. We can see how we can benefit from it, once most of the value it produces no longer ends in the owner class'es pocket.

So Hillier is mad, got it.

Oh I wouldn't worry about him ruining Shopify too much. They already have fash within their leadership which doesn't bode well for them in the long run.

Okay which one of you happened to pass by that lot?

Seems like a fix is on the way.

They're pretty good. The affected models are 10-year-old now. Not that it means they should stop working, but just some context.

Really? I was able to comment a couple of minutes ago.

I was taken aback by this random person's statement, interviewed by the CBC about this. They were like "Well we all know that Poilievre is good, but Carney just seems better." 🥹

I mean it's possible that it may have fallen some due to the relentless campaign against it in thr US, coupled with the typical leakage of American propaganda into Canada. The support for gay marriage was never 100% so it's conceivable that it may have dropped a bit but I don't expect a dramatic change or anything approaching a majority against. Not coming off of 79% approval in 2023.

I really liked how Carney addressed the woke scare. He said that while America engages in a war on woke, Canadians will continue to value inclusiveness. Also he contrasted the US as a melting pot with Canada as a mosaic. Simple.

A quick look in Wikipedia shows in 2017 support for same sex marriage stood at 74% and in 2023 at 79%. Did it fall since then? To what?

 

Linked National Post on purpose. Given their bias I believe they'd present the worst case scenario.

E: Apparently the article is from 2016 so the cost is likely higher today.

 

Some interesting data prior to the debate.

There's a significant room of undecided voters.

OLP is making gains.

Ford's Trump stunt is wearing off.

The tariffs aren't nearly a top issue.

If the OLP trend continues and ONDP-leaning voters go for Crombie's plea to vote OLP, Ford might get knocked down to a minority.

Watching how the numbers move post-debate and will post again.

 

In case you weren't aware of where Tobias (Tobi) Lutke's views lay.
