If you mention "the constitution" you are probably referring to another country.

In Canada, this would be a charter issue, but it's not a charter issue.

A requirement of driving is having BAC below 0.8.
This is a traffic stop, where the point is to confirm that there are not legal issues with the vehicle or its operation. The search of showing your license is already more of a privacy issue than providing a breath sample.

If you're more curious about it, read section 8 of the charter.

There is a difference in passively not reporting something that is probably obviously money laundering, and actively funding something harmful.

Don't get me wrong, drug money isn't clean, but funding war or investing in oil and gas companies probably does more harm.

And what as the RoI on the military?

If the point of something isn't to make money, judging it on how much money it makes is useless.

I assume you are joking, but in case you are not, the bonesaw they are talking about is the crown prince of Saudi Arabia:

DEI is Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Not sure on SBI

But unless the game is late-seasons Glee levels of pandering, I assume it having some people who are not straight white men won't feel that out of place.

I have met a large number of Canadians who have left the country, and they were not super well off. But no where near 1 in 10

They were mostly people who became citizens, then returned to the place they were born for one reason or another.

Sometimes it's realizing that the grass isn't greener, sometimes it someone "back home" gets sick, sometimes it a relationship they have in Canada goes away for one reason or another.

Walter was always awful, he just finally allowed himself to act on it.
Jessie was a generally good person acting like a bad person, Walt was a bad person acting like a good person. Their facades slowly fall away with each season.

Skyler was not perfect, but she gave her boss the money to avoid an investigation which could lead to Walt getting caught.

I have enjoyed my time with this game so far, and I think it's worth it. Opinions will obviously differ

[–] DerisionConsulting@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 year ago

That depends on which game, and if you trust the person who said/wrote it.

The USA is one of the options
