I have genuinely lost track of what's currently active, and what isn't.

I'm watching a video by Zac Rios about people buying lavish Easter Baskets for their kids and such:

I know there's an Easter hunt in school and for kids and stuff, but I've never received or heard anyone receiving an Easter basket as a gift living in Canada/UK for the past 40 years of my life.

I googled and "Google AI" says that it is a thing in Canada, but I don't trust it.

Is this a thing that I've completed missed? If this is a tradition for you, where are you from and how long have you done this?

If you walked down the street and saw a Canadian wearing a "51st State" shirt, what would be your reaction(s), and what would you do if anything at all?

The Carbon Tax was a major part of Trudeau's downfall near the end of his term. Why did he have such a hard-on for the Carbon Tax? Why didn't he cancel it when he had a chance and maybe salvage his political career? Why did Carney scrap it on his first day?

EDIT thanks for all the responses. It now makes so much sense. Trudeau was on his way out. He knew it. He took all the heat so that the new leader could take credit and ushering in a “We’re not Trudeau” party leadership, potentially saving the party during the next election and sticking it to Poillivere

Music, movies, tv shows, podcasts, comediens.

Hi,

American looking to move my domains to somewhere more stable. I found some alternatives on Google, but I worry they are basically GoDaddy.

Any suggestions for domain registrars?

Looking to migrate my domains, email and webhosting homward.

I love opalstack but they arent Canadian.

Also looking to replace Onedrive with Nextcloud. Need 1TB to start.

Who all do you like?

We could start fundraising to do the legal paperwork and buy a tower in a provincial capital then start the plans. Anyone who funds and/or works gets a share and the right to vote in the cooperative’s affairs.

The plan could be basic at first for a low price of $3 that includes wifi calling nationwide for anyone outside of the city. Then we could expand the cellular service across the province then maybe bring it the rest of the country to rival the competition and bring down prices for everyone.

Our cooperative would be focused on providing high paying jobs and providing good benefits.

We can use Mastodon, Friendica and Lemmy.ca to deliver service updates.

It’s just a fun thought experiment ;)

Asking from British Columbia where the donations are capped at $1,450.82 annually for 2024.

In Quebec the election candidates can only receive up to $100 from individuals annually and elections Quebec posts the names of the donors on their website’s board.

I would imagine there would be a lot less advertisements like lawn signs and much more grassroots actions like knocking on doors. The political parties would have to be more efficient with their messaging and everyone can maximize their contribution caps much more easily.

The federal government recently passed two bills into law, C-244 and C-294. These make it not a copyright violation to break or bypass a digital access control to software/hardware you own have legitimate access to, for the purposes of diagonstics/maintenance/repair, and interoperability respectively. Article from The Sarnia Observer

iFixit has applauded the move but says it still keeps bans on the sale and sharing of tools designed primarily for digital lock bypass.

What are your thoughts?

Not time sensistive.

Like many Canadians, I've been subjected to American TV most of my life. I know we don't have the "amendments" as such. So what do we have?

For me it's Corner Gas. I still think it's pretty funny and there's a decent amount of references to Canadian stuff but not enough to be off-putting. I feel like an American wouldn't be confused watching it even if some of the references get a bit dated overtime.

I have only seen a bit of the animated version in waiting rooms.

From my understanding it varies from airline to airline.

I'm looking at the Air Canada page that has details for example which can be found here.

But I'm not sure certain what it means.

Can I have a portable power bank that's 160W? If I bring that could I also bring on a laptop and a Steam Deck?

It seems like you can bring 15 devices theoretically.

Looking to make a bison steak and can't seem to find juniper berries or any other fresh/sour berry to pair. Thanks.

What’s life like in Baffin 🧐

Natural gas? Heating oil?

I'm really into traditional architecture and pre-automobile urban planning. Unfortunately there isn't a lot of that in North America. I know there are a few, I was wondering if Ontario specifically has any nice villages that fit this description? Preferably not abandoned ones, i am looking for ones still inhabited.
