If you're going to reply to me, you could at least make an effort to reference a single thing that I said.

How do the things in this bill accomplish that?

There’s no reason for us to come up with “draconian” bills to appease to Taco Chicken.

Maybe you should tell the Public Safety Minister.

Anandasangaree said Tuesday that Bill C-2 was drafted to contain "elements that will strengthen the relationship" between Canada and the U.S.

"There are a number of items in the bill that have been irritants for the U.S. so we are addressing some of those issues," he said. "But it's not exclusively about the United States."

Of the points raised in the video, which do you think aren't harmful?

Unilaterally cancelling immigration applications without any real oversight is draconian.

The video lays out a very concrete example of why the one-year limit on asylum claims is not a great idea.

I would think that eliminating "barriers" to forcing electronic service providers to hand over user data to law enforcement should be relevant to the interests of most Lemmy users.

Making it easier for the police to seize and open mail is...concerning.

”Pew, pew, pew, pew, pew.” The middle of the battle against the Rev-1 seems like an odd time for Murf to imitate someone complaining about “Star Trek: Discovery”, but he does seem to have things handled.

I couldn't understand him because he was whispering, and I couldn't see him because it was too dark, and also he was too woke. Is that a Bingo?

outside Canada they need to be better promoted as Canadian.

Interesting - what do you see as the benefit to that? I'm not disagreeing, but I hadn't really considered it before.

One thing that needs to happen is the Conservative traitors to stop lying about and maligning the CBC.

Big yup.

The Nova Squadron cadets are practicing a maneuver called the Boothby Supernova, named for the venerable Starfleet Academy groundskeeper, who perished in such a maneuver, as per “In the Flesh”.

To shreds, you say.

I think something like that is happening - available rooms are being prioritized for evacuees with medical or accessibility needs, as the article says.

The issue with proactively evicting people is...those people have to go somewhere, too.

"I ask all levels of government, please come together, work together, ask that these hotels and these accommodations make space for our people. We are in a state of emergency, you can give that directive."

I find this a little confusing - are they to "ask" the hotels to make space, or are they to "direct" them? Those are two very different things.

And if it's the latter...is there a legal way to do so? This is an honest question, I have no idea what the answer is.

Edited with a new headline.

 

As this is an unannounced Star Trek series, not many details are currently known. Our first indication of this new series comes from the USPTO – United States Patent and Trademark Office. The filing details clearly list “a multimedia series featuring animation distributed via various platforms”. Additionally, another source is a casting website. This site is specifically requesting young actors and actresses for a YouTube Short Series. So it’s possible this could air on the Nick Jr. YouTube channel.

It seems Star Trek: Starfleet Scouts will be something like Disney+ and Lucasfilm’s Star Wars: Young Jedi Adventures. This Star Wars series originally started as six shorts on YouTube before it gained a full season order. It has been an excellent success for Disney+, with two full 20+ episode seasons released and a third in production.

Based on casting information, the new animated series will focus on three 8-9-year-old friends as they go to school on an earth-like planet. The series will follow their adventures as they train to become future Starfleet explorers. This information seems like a step before Starfleet Academy. The characters of Starfleet Scouts are described as “Cool, funny, heroic, and authentic”.
