In 1991 I was serving on board HMCS Athabaskan (DDG282) during Operation Friction. It was the 'Athabee' that pulled the crippled USS Princeton out of a minefield. I was about 21 at the time.
Now I'm 55. If I have to go to war again, to project my home, I absolutely will.
Years ago, when I worked at Electronic Arts, the version of MSOffice we used would spell check ‘FIFA’ as ‘fiasco’.
I always lol’d.
It's never about protecting kids.
Ever.
Today, our government introduced new legislation to protect our kids online. Canada's Safe Social Media Act will hold social media and AI platforms accountable, make them safer, and restrict access to social media for children under 16.
More and more kids are suffering from anxiety, depression, self-harm, and exploitation. To keep our kids safe, we have to ensure that our laws keep up with technology.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Similar laws elsewhere (e.g., Australia’s attempts) have shown the same issue: age-gating often leads to ID/biometric collection for everyone. childrenofthestreet.com and ultimately a major privacy issue
This needs to be illegal.
You can not call it a 'purchase' if that purchase can be removed at any time, for any reason, with no recourse.
At best, this is a long term rental.

"would be a result unique to Mr. Singh in that no Canadian citizen would face a similar consequence if he or she pleaded guilty to the same crime."
But he's ~not~ a Canadian citizen... 🙄🙄🤬

None of these shows have been cancelled. They've ended because their stories did. They end with final seasons that wrap up story lines.
Cancelled shows just stop.
- The Acolyte was cancelled.
- The Boys is ending.
There is a big difference.

We live in a world in which people need to be warned that food will be hot after you have heated it.
I remember a time when people already knew this. It was something obvious. Now it’s too much to ask that people know this. 🙄

I've been informed that the source of the original image of Duke in the Canadian military was an edit of Captain Jefferson Clifford Francis, killed in action on July 4th, 2007 in Kandahar, Afghanistan. Rest In Peace.
Both USN hospital ships, the Mercy and Comfort, are in refit and not going anywhere any time soon.
Also, nobody in Denmark or Greenland has any idea who the 'sick people that are not being taken care of' are. Nobody involved knows what any of this is.
Supernatural had 327 episodes over 15 years and it had a dozen main characters.
Not being able to punch out 20 eps in a year with just 4 main characters just seems lazy.
Yes @netflix, I'd love to watch more Lockwood & Co. Except for one problem. It was the number 1 show on your platform for 3 weeks, in multiple countries, and yet you still cancelled it.
