At least it's "Not American". The Quaker Oats listing is a bad joke: -- Quaker is owned by PepsiCo.
No, they're a big box store, not associated with a mall like a department store.
Canva is not European, but it's also not American -- they're from Australia.
It's not a precedent -- this has already happened several times. John Turner was PM in 1984 without having a seat. Mackenzie King won an election and became PM all while not being an MP in 1926. He was even a seat-less PM for a couple of months again in 1945.
Prior to the convention of standing for election soon after becoming PM being a hard-and-fast thing, John A. McDonald was in a similar position at Confederation in 1867, and so were two more 19th-century PMs, Abbott and Bowell.
Given the way that the Conservatives blew several conventions out of the water last time they were in power (proroguing Parliament inappropriately, and refusing to allow a coalition second crack at forming a government after an election) I agree it would be a good idea to make this a law. But ringing an alarm bell over Carney specifically is a bit too much. The Liberals are already talking about which back-bencher will resign and Carney run: somewhere in the West Island of Montreal looks like a likely candidate as they are super-safe Liberal seats.
I haven't been able to confirm precisely, but the Midori browser appears to be from Spain or at least Europe. Their website only comes in English/Español and the only events they have listed as attending have been in Germany. It's Gecko-based, so it's "Firefox-ish". It also takes Firefox add-ins, which is nice.
I've been using it for a couple weeks now and it's been working fine. Spotify hiccups on it, but that's the only site I go to regularly that doesn't like it.
There's not a lot, but if you're willing to look at "Not American" rather than "Canadian" there's a few.
Daily software, I've been using Switzerland's kSuite 's free tier for about a week, for emails and a Google Docs/Sheets replacement. It's been fine so far.

This is a history where FDR died fifteen months early and his then-vice-president Henry Wallace succeeded him. This gave Wallace a head start on the power-brokers who had him replaced with Truman in real life and he won the 1944 election. Wallace was relatively trusting of the USSR and in this timeline he allowed Germany to be re-united as a neutral per Stalin's preference. NATO never came to be as Wallace was also pretty peace-oriented (and an alliance was even further out of the question after the isolationist wing of the Republicans won the presidency in 1948).
Left up against the Soviets without the US to back them, the UK broke the bank to develop intercontinental missiles as well as nuclear bombs, using the smaller-scale prototype rocket to do a suborbital manned space launch. This served as propaganda to get France and the Benelux nations interested in sharing the technology in return for paying for some of it.
This was the dark flip-side of that space program: a land-based test of a fission bomb, a second test of a thermonuclear weapon and then a third using the missile to deliver another H-bomb from Malaysia to Peros Banhos in the Chagos Archipelago.
He's written some "Notes" on the story when it was printed in his first short story collection and said that it has the same theme but that he wasn't inspired by it directly. The roots were Paul Linke's play "Time Flies When You’re Alive" and the principle of least time in optics -- if you treat light as a ray, it has to know its future destination in order to know the path with the shortest time it will take to get there (though not if it's a wave). Then there's a bunch of diagrams and discussions about the principle's implications for free will that will stretch your brain. It's pretty fun.
She might like Little Kitty, Big City. You're a cat, it's an open world, you explore, make friends, and wear hats.
He's holding a bomb, so I'm guessing he accidentally threw one and blew up the crops where the empty tilled land is around them.
My mother's cat stares for food from one side of her chair and then, after being fed, stares from the other side of the chair because that is clearly a different kitty who has not been fed yet.
