For any Canadians reading this, adding hormones or steroids to meat and dairy animals has always been prohibited here for all types of livestock.

Antibiotics are allowed on sick cows and pigs but they can't be used for dairy or meat until they've been off the antibiotics for a period of time that is supposed to be long enough to flush it from their system. Chickens are too short lived and antibiotics are prohibited if they are to be sold for human consumption.

You know how A&W advertises that their beef is free of added hormones and steroids? Well that's actually true for all meat sold in Canada. A&W is just the only one advertising it. Pretty clever as campaign, actually.

People who don't do any of those actions are not active users. Lurkers are not active by definition.

They shouldn't be included in the active user count, because they're not contributing any activity.

There are a lot of reasons to shit on the beef and dairy cartels in Canada, and they have definitely captured the market with regulation, but I don't believe this is an example of that. I think this is a good safety regulation that actually is in the interest of average Canadians for once.

That's the whole point of a critic though. They're supposed to be providing deeper takes rooted in expertise in the film industry.

I think part of the problem is that people think criticism is an inherently bad thing. That allows people to dismiss criticisms as being negative, rather than simply an observation of a flaw.
