The university class would have been in the late 2000’s the Stats Canada computer would have been in the late 2010’s.

I think the whole thing started in 98 with Wakefield and his claim that MMR vaccine caused autism.

If I remember correctly he wasn’t even an antivaxer rather he wanted to sell his schedule.

Oh it did not even occur to me that it’s that time of the year again. The only times that this time change stuff has effected me in my adult life was one fall, I showed up to class an hour early once or I went to do some government work an hour early. I live in Saskatchewan and the showing up to class an hour early was because my phone decided I was not in Saskatchewan, after that mix up I have stayed on top of making sure my electronics do not believe I follow that silliness. Years later while I was working for Statistics Canada the stupid software had no idea how to handle Saskatchewan not following that silliness so I showed up to someones home and hour early.

So I have two pihole’s on my lan, my main one also acts as a mDNS getting its DNS stuff from a Canadian DNS host but that is besides the point. I had a TV provider, but that was cancelled because I did not want to pay for US stations. I pay for CBC and TSN (for CFL), everything else I either download (*arr apps) or stream from Global, CTV, CityTV, or CBC. My pihole blocks ads for almost everything, I do not want to be paying for US advertisment.

"This is a heartbreaking loss, and no words can capture the pain of losing a child. My sincere condolences go to the family during this profoundly difficult time,"

If I could I would kick every antivaxer right in the face because of this.

I am hoping they flush PP down with all his shit with the leadership review, but I fear of what comes after his bull shit.

Me being an activist I have recently been doing a lot of letter writing to the Government of Canada, I have sent letters to PP’s office trying to hopefully take advantage of him leaving by telling his office that he should stand for whatever I was letter writing about (sorry I do a lot of letter campaigns and do not remember what it was I sent his office, I wanna say removing Canadian Data from US servers but I could be wrong I do not remember if he was in office or not when I started that campaign), but I told his office that he should start making noise about the topic prior to the leadership review so that when it comes time for choosing a new leader he is not chosen “because there are no other better options, but because he did whatever.” Their are millions of better options than him, even if he did take a stand and try to do something good for the country.

As an AMAB woman with an F on my ID I would be terrified of going to the US let alone someone with an X on their ID. Glade that the government is starting to realize.

Remember to boycott Loblaws

[-] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 7 points 4 days ago

I stopped paying for YouTube premium once the boycott started getting going, I had plans on just boycotting YouTube altogether (it is the only Google service I still use) but I fell back into it as there is no real competition. I wasn’t going to go back to watching ads or paying for it so I had to find alternatives, I am currently using unmatched on my iPhone and iPad and just screen sharing to my TV in the not too distant future I will have a pi attached to my TV to do all my steaming stuff.

Yeah every Easter I see so much terror being done to them. During December the country doesn’t go into Christmas stuff.

I really hope this is because of us.

I cancelled my Cable back when the boycott started, and most of my streaming services soon after. I use a pihole (https://pi-hole.net/) setup and watch my shows on the Global, CTV, CityTV, and CBC apps so I see no ads. I have an unlimited email package from my web host (hosthero.ca) so I can use a different pseudo-random email address for everything. I do all this because I have had my ID stolen once before and have no desire to go through that poop again, and I hate ads.

Anywho I use an AppleTV as my “SmartTV” stuff, hopefully I will be changing that to a raspberry pi this weekend but that is besides the point, when global posted the new episode of Survivor I got curious about if I should be watching it from the global app. I am sure there are ways that they see that someone has watched it but that is about it. I am thinking if I should maybe be just using Sonarr for all of my US TV shows, that way I still get to see it but I am not counted as a viewer. I am curious as to what others think.

Smith said permanent residents and non-citizens living in Alberta will have no marker displayed on their card.

Yeah because law enforcement wont abuse that.

Albertans will need to provide proof of citizenship or immigration status when applying for or renewing a driver's licence, according to the province.

Minister of Service Alberta and Red Tape Reduction Dale Nally said the federal government was consulted on the change.

“Minister of Service Alberta and Red Tape Reduction” sounds kinda maple maga

Driver's licences incorporating Alberta health-care card information will roll out at the same time, Smith said.

"This will also provide additional security around health-care numbers," Smith said.

Smith said there are over 530,000 more health-care numbers than there are people living in Alberta.

Yeah if you are having difficulties with health-care numbers and the population that is an issue, but you wanna bet that the 530 000 number is in relation to people who do not have a license? Here in Saskatchewan we get free stickers to put on our health cards when they are up for renewal, I am willing to bet that you will have to renew your license to keep your health card up to date.

Poilievre said Kirk was killed "because he expressed a contrary point of view."

Kirk’s last words and thoughts were not exactly racist but damn near close to it, mass shootings or gang violence. His second last thoughts where Transphobic “there are two many mass shootings by Trans people to count in his country.” Yes I did use two properly there, there have been two mass shootings down by Trans people in the US.

I realized I needed to get my activism fix, it has been a while since I have sent letters to agencies and I was just really needing a hit. But what could I activate over? Well hey Trump is hosting the G20 at Maralogo why don’t I try shaking the globe up a bit, it has been a little while since I have tried that. I came up with an argument about why Canada should boycott it, then encourage other parties to do the same and then host an alternative in Canada. Then I sent out different emails to different parties. In retrospect I think I took a real low blow at PP but he was letter 3 so I was a little drained. I wrote another email after that still and have a few more for tomorrow. I would like to encourage others to write their MP, possibly even Carney and PP but if you do those two and they are not your MP make sure you say in the letter that you have already written your MP.

I am really not happy with those who have money just forgetting about those of us who are doing are part to stick it to the US.

Do they really think demand for flights to the US to pick up, drastically, after Trump crocks or the next election?
