What is the price to use Facebook?

a surface-level “win” that doesn’t actually cost Canada anything.

Except for billions of dollars of tax revenue.

NDP was suppose to be the in-between of Liberal and Conservative

What? How is the centre left party supposed to be in between the centre right party and the right wing party?

I don't think the blame lies solely with corporations when it comes to urban planning issues. Corporations will act in the way that they think is most profitable. Always. That's a know quantity.

The reason that so many places ended up looking like this is failures of the political systems that allow, or even encourage this type of development. Express you displeasure to your elected officials at all levels. That is the best way to get changes made, not just complaining about corporations on the internet.

There are no medieval equivalents to YouTube channels, since YouTube wasn't invented for at least a decade after the medieval period.

I have a case on my Pixel 8 only because I don't like how sharp the edges are around the screen and on the camera bar.

Yes, all domestic flights in North America are Seattle to NYC.

With the current level of train infrastructure and service, I agree with you. That is why domestics flights are a thing. But trains would be a much better choice if rail wasn't actively defunded and sabotaged for the last 70 years or so.

Its this lack of imagination of what could be (and already exists around the world) that makes everyone laugh at Americans.

Domestic flights should basically not be a thing. Trains should be the default option if you don't have to cross an ocean.
