years ago at King’s…. a class with a well meaning former diplomat who was adapting to teaching…. i think it was the League of Nations but perhaps formation of UN. Russia doesn’t see Canada as “independent” as worthy of membership. Canada stays…White Russia gets in as well as a second Russia seat

It’s also interesting that in the Blue Jays and other sports on TV there are now ads for online betting indicating you need to be in Ontario or NS to play. My recollection was it was limited to the Ontario previously. I wonder what changed?
