Under those rules, streaming services that are not Canadian-owned and have more than CAD $25 million (approx. USD $18.5 million) in revenue in Canada annually are required to pay 5% of that revenue into funds that subsidize Canadian content and creators.

Because streaming is international while radio is local.

If international sites wanna play their music in Canada, then they should pay for the privilege.

Underground lanes, in an extention of the busiest highway in Canada, where rigs haul a shit-ton of cargo in soft-sided trailers (meaning it could be anything from nuclear waste to missiles), and there would never be an accident … ever. 🙄

Because the next war will likely be WW3.

But I’m not confident this is just to avert something larger, as it would seem we passed that point a while back.

I don’t know.

It’s about a racist group of people, who are currently under a provincial advisory board, but decided to have an official meeting without the quorum of individuals needed to have an official meeting.

What they passed is incidental to the story.

“Indeed, the RCMP C-IRG has repeatedly acted in a way that is contrary to the jurisprudence and to the rule of law,” reads the report.

The same unit faces abuse of process proceedings launched by First Nations activists who allege the unit violated their Charter rights during the Coastal GasLink pipeline dispute in northern B.C.

The evidence there includes recordings of Mounties mocking activists arrested at Wet’suwet’en-led blockades as “orcs” and “ogre” and laughing while discussing beating a man and twisting his genitals during one arrest.

ACAB and fuck the RCMP.

I don’t think a lot of Canadians realize that we have super pacs contributing to party finances just like America does.

For some reason nobody – and I mean NOBODY – has done a deep dive into it.

… but it is how things are …

… now. How things are now.

Only after Druggie decided to mess around in TO’s municiple politics to set his own fucking agenda.

This is Canada encouraging Canadian citizens to leave Lebanon for their own safety.

Where did you see this was talking about immigrants?

Yup. Guess Druggie forgot his province mostly consists of the Canadian Shield.

But then again he may have just got a hard-on for all the blasting required to tunnel through the rock.

Drug Fraud’s addiction to spending taxpayer dollars in the stupidest of ways continues.

This is the only other news source that reported on the summit.

Transgender rights in Canada, including procedures for changing legal gender and protections from discrimination, vary among provinces and territories, due to Canada’s nature as a federal state (but no one an be banned or discriminated against for changing their gender.)

Bill C-16, which passed in June 2017, added the words “gender identity and expression” in three instances. These words were added to the Canadian Human Rights Act as prohibited grounds for discrimination, and to the Criminal Code in two sections, the first dealing with hate speech and hate incitement and the second regarding sentencing for hate crimes.

The first PM to do this was Mulroney with Reagan (and his -nomics bs that’s led us to this hellscape).

If we had been smarter back then we never would have elected that idjit in the first place. All he did was follow Reagan around like a lap dog.

Iirc that’s a federal law, so provinces can’t fuck with it.

Poor Moe. Neglecting to pay attention for the last 10 years to climate change and the role O&G plays in that has caught him offguard. 🙄

Hellberta importing American mistrust.

The taxpayer dollars that are “coming out of the public system and going into the pockets of private agencies is very concerning,” Dr. Almost said. “Think about what could be done with $1.5-billion. It could be used to provide better care. It could be used to actually retain nurses.”

The trailer article doesn’t specifically say which police force owned the trailer of guns, and the RCMP doesn’t take care of any policing in Ontario (except policing on federal gov’t grounds) because that’s done by the OPP.
