Either that or no tariffs but non-tariff measures stay in effect until the decision is permanent.

Sure. Just to be clear, I was defining the term, not describing Ford or Can/ON cons.

It basically means fiscal conservative, social liberal.

I’m sure this is an effort, in part at least, to drive a wedge between the democracies targeted by this administration. Don’t lose sight of who our enemies are. Viva Mexico! Death to America!

Mental note!

Not at all a Liberal voter but crisis Trudeau is 🔥

I wonder if he’d be resigning if this happened earlier…

He said it in an interview with the WSJ.

This was published before he made those statements.

The tariffs shouldn’t apply:

Canada’s countermeasures do not apply to U.S. goods that are in transit to Canada on the day on which they come into force.

I think the only answer is: journalists write stories, editors write headlines 🤷

You can find a general list of the types of products covered by the initial $30B tariffs here. There’s a very detailed list released by the government here.

I don’t think they’ve released the details of the second wave of tariffs (~$155B) yet.

Canadian tariffs are targeted in a number of ways. One of the ways is targeting American goods that have Canadian alternatives. So the goal is to make American products less attractive by making them more expensive, damaging the US economy while bolstering our own.

There aren’t really winners in trade wars but the goal is to minimize our pain while maximizing theirs.

I slept through this one in Vancouver. I mostly just heard the last one. Didn’t even know there’d been an earthquake til someone texted me 🤷

How does the app know if you’re taking transit?

Thanks! This looks really cool.

Does anyone know how to actually get the free upgrade? I get a notification that BC Transit provides “Royale” for free but it asks me to sign up for a paid account when I click it.

100%! It’s definitely a great thing given the current circumstances.

It’s still the same thing as birthright citizenship. He has Canadian citizenship because his mother is Canadian.

An online petition calling on the Canadian government to revoke Elon Musk’s citizenship is on track to become one of the most popular in the history of the House of Commons.

There’s just one problem — Canada can’t revoke Musk’s citizenship.

Immigration lawyer Gabriela Ramo says that under Canadian law, someone’s citizenship can only be revoked if it can be proven that they committed fraud or misrepresentation to obtain it.

“Before they could move to do this, they would need to introduce legislation, there would have to be amendments to the current Citizenship Act,” said Ramo, former chair of the Canadian Bar Association’s immigration section. “There’s no provision that would allow them to pursue revocation of citizenship of a Canadian birth, by virtue of his birth to a Canadian mother.”

That’s kind of mixed news. Seized Russian assets were supposed to fund Ukrainian reconstruction. It’s sort of robbing future-Ukraine to pay present day-Ukraine. Overall though, still way better than no weapons, obviously.

My original claim was that, in addition to gedaliyah’s points, the TOS gives them permission to perform basic browser tasks. My last comment was about the same thing. The TOS is relevant because 1) it’s the basis of this entire discussion and 2) the changes in the TOS conclusively prove my original claim.

As to “data collection” in this context, those words do not appear in the TOS and are not rights Mozilla is asserting for use of their software. It’s a fiction you invented. That was the point of me pointing out the use of the word “use” – describing that term and distinguishing its meaning from the thing you made up.
