Kick faces possible $49 M fine after French streamer Jean Pormanove dies on air
Reply in thread
They kinda did. The dudes were taken in as part of an ongoing investigation but were then released. I can see why it’s fared for the cops when even the victims are saying it’s by their own choice. But it’s no excuse for kick.
The investigation, opened in December, is looking into “deliberate violence against vulnerable persons” and “spreading recordings of images related to offences involving deliberate violations of physical integrity,” Martinelli’s statement said. It did not specify why Pormanove could be considered vulnerable.
The statement said two co-streamers allegedly involved in the case were briefly taken into custody in January but were released pending further investigation.
In parallel, the Nice prosecutor said, investigators interviewed Pormanove and one of his co-streamers who both appeared to be victims of violence and humiliation. They “strongly denied being victims of violence, stating that the events were staged in order to `generate a buzz’ and make money.”

Christian preachers are turning airplanes into unwanted worship services
I’m no believer but I think these people should hear the words of the Bible.
Matthew 6:4-6
4so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 5And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites. For they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. Truly I tell you, they already have their full reward. 6But when you pray, go into your inner room, shut your door, and pray to your Father, who is unseen. And your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.…

Bitter feud ensues after landlord's failed attempt to raise tenants' rent 65%
Reply in thread
I’m also noticing the owners said they are bleeding cash. But they bought 7 units (in 4 buildings) for 295,000. Assuming 0 down and 5% apr that just north of 1700 a month. So this one renter paying 727 is nearly half of their mtg.
Even if we say expenses and upkeep adds 50% to their monthly outlay, their costs are covered at 4 units rented…
I’m not exactly anti landlord but this screams rent seeking crocodile tears.

Judge to decide if Ottawa locals can testify in ‘Freedom Convoy’ organizers’ trial

Exactly what I was thinking. This just sounds like it would be a victim impact statement which serves very standard.
I also fail to see how it could possibly be considered irrelevant.

Hilton Hotels refused ICE agents rooms, Trump administration says
Reply in thread
"This hotel is independently owned and operated, and these actions were not reflective of Hilton values,” Hilton told The Independent in an email statement. “We have been in direct contact with the hotel, and they have apologized for the actions of their team, which was not in keeping with their policies. They have taken immediate action to resolve this matter and are contacting impacted guests to ensure they are accommodated.”
Probably not, their ownership seem to have changed course. Pathetic

Olivia Chow elected mayor of Toronto, CP24 declares
was really worried early on with Bailao in the lead. Was wondering if we were going to pull an Ottawa.
While she wasn't my top candidate glad I voted for her. Letting the city rot for another 4 years under Bailao wasn't an option.
