In case you're asking in good faith... The downside is that non-citizens voting is simply not a problem. The number of cases is extremely low, there's nothing to "fix" here. The biggest impact of this policy would be that actual American citizens who do not have, or lost, or forgot to bring their proof of citizenship will not be able to vote. It will predominantly affect poor and marginal populations. People that don't have a passport, don't have easy access to their birth certificate, or aren't aware of the new regulation. Fewer people voting is 100% the goal with this policy.

Be aware, Vancouver Sun is US-owned.

You'll still need a work permit to work in Canada, even for a US company remotely. So hopefully you're up to speed on that process. In terms of where to live, there are some places in BC outside major cities that are affordable. Might be worth taking a road trip around to check some out

I didn't take their comment as sarcasm, just a bit snarky...I think you're both on the same page here

I assume many of those are bots or paid trolls

The eclipse is more dangerous actually... The visible light is reduced so your pupil expands. But a lot of UV light comes from the corona of the sun which isn't blocked during the eclipse. So your pupils are more open allowing in more of the harmful UV light. And to add to it, your eyes don't realize they are being harmed by UV light without the visible so you don't have that impulse to look away.

It's quite easy to vote from abroad, and I agree with you...it would have been good for the article to make that small point. I'm also really hoping that they still voted. I don't think it's fair to assume they didn't, most Americans I know in Canada did vote.

There's no fault here, imo...the person that put up the sign probably wasn't thinking about events in Winnipeg. But that doesn't change the fact that someone was killed and thrown away like trash. This sign pokes fun (albeit unintentionally) at a very real and raw situation. It's fair to ask them to remove the sign, so as not to put the families of these missing women through more pain.

I agree with the other two commenters. Also in my opinion, Trudeau had some good policy but terrible PR around it. The "carbon tax" should never had been called a tax from the beginning...most people got more money back, but everyone thought they were paying the tax. And Trudeau grew up in politics on the public stage. He took advantage of his privelige at times and wasn't always careful with the optics of his actions. Too many opportunities for his opposition to criticize him and turn public favour against him.

CBC meaning Columbia Bible College for anyone confused

Or maybe how people let their hamsters run around the house in a plastic ball

Dude, just put a "no junk mail" sticker on your mailbox and it will stop. https://www.canadapost-postescanada.ca/cpc/en/personal/consumers-choice.page

Well, you can get water out of your tap, so there's an easy alternative. Use a filter if your tap water is iffy.

Yep, worked there during the changeover. 2003-04ish. I actually loved working there under the old management, the food was good, quality was the priority. Then the fryers left, replaced by industrial microwaves...but we still baked the muffins. I'm sure even those are frozen/reheated these days.

There's no simple answer to your question, just like there's no quick solution to the problem of inequality. But one premise you've mentioned isn't quite correct. The democratic party hasn't really been "ruling" for most of that time. They've controlled the presidency, yes. But for all except 2 years, they haven't controlled Congress (it's been either divided or republican controlled), and they haven't controlled the supreme court. That said, a lot of Democrats are still happy to push the status quo, and there's plenty of warranted criticism to go around.

1 day old account, look at the post history. I doubt that person is even Canadian.

Glad to see this getting some press. I got my ballot and have also helped 2 others register this year. Many people don't realize how easy it is to vote abroad!

These are partially wrong. Pupil size/shape has no effect on field of view. A better way to judge FOV is where the eyes are placed on the head. Both in front like humans: small-ish FOV. On the sides of the head like a rabbit: larger FOV.

It looks like it's 30GB for every 90 days...10GB per month. Or am I reading the terms wrong?

Hmm...it also says at the bottom Quebec residents only

Amazing story. I can't believe she's only 50...not that long ago. Plenty of those dinosaurs booing her from the stands are still probably flooding facebook comment sections.
