'The Red States, We're Going to Hit Hard': Canadian Politicians Vow to Make MAGA Pay for Trump's Trade War

He does have a bit more wiggle room than buying or not buying liquor. He can assert pressure through some of the manufacturing in Ontario and energy exports. Nothing equivalent to what can happen at the federal level, but more than not buying liquor

Carney asks provinces to return U.S. alcohol to stores
Reply in thread
I don't know about people not purchasing. It may be the part of Canada I'm in, but USAian products aren't sitting on the shelves for as long and a lot of people have lost the care to avoid them if they ever did. A great example was last summer when USAian watermelons were rotting in the bins at grocery stores while Mexican and Canadian ones were selling quickly. This year I'm seeing people pick them up without a care. It doesn't help USAian companies are purposely hiding the origins and maple washing their products.
Plus, the uptick in Canadians travelling south of the border for non-work purposes means full acceptance and support for the USAian administration by those choosing to go to there.
I'm keeping up my boycott and always will. Those that don't boycott when they can afford to or simply don't care can be the first dealt with as traitors when the time inevitably comes.

Jesus....I know modern cars crumple for safety, but how the hell could you get enough speed in a parking garage to do that???

Can you suggest a state-of-the-art AI-poisoning technique to safely publish a big amount of teaching materials?
I'm far from an expert so take what I'm saying with a grain of salt. What I've been seeing is that poisoning is becoming less and effective since all the major models have such a large reference to go by they can automatically weed out "poisoned" information.
I guess if the information was completely unique and the subject wasn't found elsewhere on the internet you might have more success, at least temporarily until more information came out.

‘Buckling' beams at Manhattan high-rise under construction trigger mass evacuation
Not to defend developers, but to everyone bringing up cheap materials and assuming the developers were hoping to duck out before issues arose, if you read the article you'll see the building was a preexisting office building being converted to residential units. Not a new build.
The current renovations likely removed some needed support and the remaining structure couldn't handle it. Mistake (engineering calculation) or greed (removing more than stated to include more units) are both possible.

New poll finds Conservative support slightly ahead of Liberals for first time in months
While I voted NDP I had hopes for Carney with his 'elbows up' stance. However, he immediately tucked them in and started bending over for tRump. Between that and (trying to) ending the Air Canada strike, no wonder voters are getting disillusioned.

San Francisco restaurant gets angry backlash for AI menu images

That was my thought too. Low res some things looked a bit off, but high res is a mixture of gross and creepy.
As the owner, how would you see that and think that it'd make people come in to eat?

Wholesome sharks
Reply in thread
He does say 'irrational' fear and it was during an ice breaker, I'd take it as wholesome since it wouldn't have been a really serious situation when it was revealed.
Possibility different if they had brought in real hammerhead sharks. Also, if he'd been attacked by a hammerhead shark, but being an irrational fear I'm guessing not.

Smith Reveals Meeting with the US Heritage Foundation After Trump Win
From the article: In an interview with Breitbart News in March she appeared to be supportive of Trump and said that federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre would be a better ally to the Americans.
“Pierre... would be very much in sync with, I think... the new direction in America,” she told them.
Well, didn't think I'd ever agree with Smith, but here we are.

Congrats to all of them. This is what all USAians should be doing.
Though I half expect to see a MOVE bombing reenactment coming soon.
