Have you ever considered that the Prime Directive is not only not ethical, but also illogical, and perhaps morally indefensible?
The Prime Directive is that the Federation won’t interfere with the development of a pre-warp society.
While warp capability (or a rough equivalent) is the prerequisite for first contact, the Prime Directive is broader, forbidding intervention in the internal affairs of any non-Federation civilization.

Manitoba premier floats idea of 2nd Hudson Bay port to increase trade with Europe
This is the first time Kinew has indicated any openness to the idea of a second port, which has been raised before.
The prior Progressive Conservative government in Manitoba put forward a funding commitment to study it, but Kinew's government cancelled that.
On Tuesday, he said the idea would not even be on the table if Trump didn't upend world trade.

Even better - "Bachman-Turner Overdrive" will be the actual street name (which, upon further research, is strictly commemorative).
Honestly not really, but it's just about the best place in the city to let it ride.

During their visit, the EU Heads of Mission will meet with Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew and participate in ministerial roundtables on trade and investment, clean energy, critical raw materials, as well as research and innovation opportunities under the Horizon Europe programme.
While in Winnipeg, the EU Heads of Mission will also have the opportunity to exchange views with the Business Council of Manitoba and the Indigenous Chamber of Commerce, as well as tour the Canadian NORAD Headquarters and CentrePort Canada - a key hub for international trade. The EU Heads of Mission will also meet with representatives of their communities in Manitoba.
OTTAWA – European Union Ambassador Geneviève Tuts and 18 Heads of Mission of European Union Member States in Canada are embarking today on a two-day official visit to Winnipeg, Manitoba, as part of a Team Europe mission to the Canadian Prairies and the first in a series of joint outreach activities ...
Yeah, from what I've gathered from previous articles on the topic, CSIS does not have boots-on-the-ground spies, foreign assets, or the infrastructure to support them.
Assuming stardates happen sequetionally
I have to admit, I'm a little uncomfortable with this one - expropriation is a pretty extreme measure, and more housing is needed.
But I have no skin in this game, the details are obviously pretty complex, and it seems like a pretty unique situation.

Yup.

In this case, I think there might be a case to be made.
"The prosecutor would be, I think, concerned … if the investigation was still going on behind the scenes, without them being looped in, while they're trying to prosecute a case," said Michael Arntfield, a criminologist and professor at Western University who worked for 16 years as a detective with the London Police Service in Ontario.
"If they say they can't interview him, that to me sounds like they've taken direction either from the Crown or from superior officers to not potentially interfere with the prosecution."
Shut out of medical school, he blames controversial admissions test which experts say lacks evidence
Sure, I just don't find "everybody does it" to be a particularly compelling argument. Wrong is wrong.
Absolutely. It's beyond me why someone would be against a hearing taking place, considering a "no" would be practically guaranteed in cases like these.
Carney said they’ve been “reassigned” within the campaign.
Not nearly enough.
Carney responds to buttons story
CBC’s Kate McKenna, who broke a story about Liberal operatives planting Trump-style buttons at a conservative conference last week, is covering Carney on the campaign trail this week.
She asked Carney how much the incident undermines trust in the Liberals — given the “anti-democratic” connotations of one of the pins, which bore the slogan “stop the steal,” a reference to Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election results — and what he’s done in response to the revelations.
“This is totally unacceptable, to be absolutely clear … I was unaware of this behaviour, but on behalf of my campaign I apologize for it unreservedly,” he said.
Asked later whether the Liberals have fired the staffers involved, Carney said they’ve been “reassigned” within the campaign.
“This behaviour or anything approximating it in that spirit is unacceptable, cannot happen, cannot happen again,” he said.

'It's very much its own story,' says Russell T Davies.
I remain very...curious about this series. Hopefully "Lucky Day" will serve as a bit of a backdoor pilot that gives us an idea of its look and feel.

I don't know much about military training, but I do know that grouping students into "squadrons" is done today - I don't know that the grouping is based on anything, but it makes a certain kind of sense that Starfleet would embrace a kind of "meritocracy" approach to it, even if it also comes off as elitist.
Perhaps Nova Squadron is a long-held academy tradition, and despite the initial fallout of the 2368 incident, that’s overshadowed by its long history of outstanding cadets, a legacy the academy didn’t want to suddenly erase.
I think this is likely. Scandals come and go, but they often don't overpower institutional inertia.
Despite the mixed results last season, I am glad that RTD is putting at least a little more weight behind the arcs than his previous "recurring words in each episode" schtick.
We'll always look ahead to the future if we get the chance to keep running. I've got ideas. "I think I'll do that near [Season] 4 or 5." And that's always the way I've worked on things. So yes, I could promise you amazing stuff at the end of Season 4. There are things we've already mentioned that are going to bear fruit a long time into the future. So that's just the fun of it. That's the fun of Doctor Who. But, to say again, it's the pit stops along the way.
'Doctor Who' Boss Russell T Davies Breaks Down That 'Earth-Shattering' Premiere Twist
That cat ain't coming back - RTD has always been a rather bloodthirsty showrunner.
Couldn't agree less - I think the 32nd century is a fantastic setting, especially for a show like this.
CBC is reporting this as fact, not an allegation - it's safe to assume that they know exactly who these campaign workers are.
There are also decent reasons not to name them just yet - if they're low-level staffers, it's worth trying to get a comment from the Party first, and/or try to determine how far up the ladder this goes. No sense in scapegoating the grunts until the higher-ups are ID'd.
On Friday night, in two Ottawa bars, campaign workers shared how the party was behind this move — how two Liberal Party staffers attended the conference intended for conservatives and placed these buttons in areas where attendees would find them.
One of those conversations was in the immediate earshot of this journalist. A Conservative source overheard the other conversation.
