I'm assuming they mean tracking Linux users is difficult since most distributions don't have any kind of telemetry or tracking and there's no company keeping track of their user count like Microsoft or Apple. However, it's not like it's impossible.

So no head?

This. Conservatives want their politicians saying immigrants are hurting american jobs. Saying immigrants are "vermin poisoning the blood of the nation" is a bit too mask off/hood on for most.

Actual code!? Most of us have to settle for fixing a grammatical error in the documentation

He had to approach her to shoot her. Sonya ducked behind a counter when the officer pulled his gun on her and said "I will fucking shoot you in your fucking face". Why would someone approach a threat? He didn't see her as a threat, he saw an excuse to kill her.

is there even an attempt at all anymore to just shoot them in non vital areas so they can be apprehended, or is the outcome supposed to be shoot to kill?

It's always shoot to kill, as it should be. A gun is a lethal weapon. It's only use is to kill. Police have less-than-lethal tools if their intent isn't to kill.

Right! So what would descheduling cannabis do? Nothing! The federal government is already choosing to not enforce their own law. Changing the federal scheduling of cannabis doesn't actually change anything if the federal government isn't enforcing it to begin with. I mean, it's not like it's a bad thing, it's just not the same as federal legalization.

I haven't used Reddit in a while, but back when I did, r/canada was alt-right and I doubt it had real Canadians on it. It seemed like a Russian troll farm like r/the_donald. The actual Canadian subreddit seemed to be r/onguardforthee. The media is also mostly privately owned by wealthy conservatives so there's a clear bias. I personally don't read or watch anything that isn't put out by the CBC, which has a mandate to be politically neutral.

Even Canada's right wing party doesn't hate immigrants, as they make up a large part of the Canadian labour market and are a source of tax revenue. The only valid criticism has been over student visas, which were essentially temporary visas given to people with lots of money. A lot of these "students" were middle aged, already had advanced degrees, and spent more time working a high paying job, or simply just living in Canada, than attending school. The conditions of a student visa were mostly "do you have $100,000 per year?" Nobody had much reason to put a cap on it, since it was a large revenue source, but once there were over 1 million active student visas it might have attributed to actual issues. The conditions are changing and there is now going to be a cap on the amount of active student visas.

The Conservatives are blaming Trudeau for everything though. That's definitely real. Their current leader is Pierre Poilievre who spent most of his 20 year career as an "attack dog". I don't think he knows how to do anything else besides trash talk people. It used to get him in a lot of trouble, but now it's gotten him party leadership and is probably going to get him the title of Prime Minister. Not because Canadians aren't friendly, but because this is Trudeau's 4th election and Canadians don't like voting for the same person 4 times in a row.

It’s not undemocratic for people to be uneven

Spoken like a true American!
