Love the student and labour mobility idea! Maybe some CS grads would come here to replace the many of ours that go to the US under CUSMA.

The HPV vaccine has been available for free to both boys and girls in Grade 7 here in Ontario for years. And the incidence of cervical cancer has plummeted. #Science #VaccinesSaveLives

Thank you for sharing the memory of this beautiful little girl, murdered by a nation riven with hatred and fear.

Hopefully things change here, as my big worry about AI talk on this site is that people are being misled about the capabilities of AI by influencers who are telling them what they want to hear.
AI is not going away, it will impact all of our futures, and it needs more voices shaping its direction.

@justinling.ca does it make sense for Canada to spend billions on planes that can be taken out by drones -drones that are getting better and better, especially by Ukraine?

Meanwhile here in Canada, after Calgary removed fluoride and Edmonton didn’t, Calgary is putting it back in. Too many more kids with cavities in Calgary than Edmonton. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I would guess a large portion of the population does not appreciate the full health harms from wildfire smoke. As we learned from the pandemic, there are more airborne risks than just what we see. The risk is more serious for some groups, including seniors.

Yes! On one of my first government consulting gigs, I was shocked to discover that the border ‘stakeholders’ were customs brokers, not import users. Brokers with a vested interest in making it difficult to import! I pictured them holding stakes to kill off any innovation.

1 - lack of transparency and accountability: these "deals" get done in back rooms and public doesn't see any details - costs, no public reporting of outcomes and access metrics, no accountability... nada. (look at CSFs - they do NOT have to report like hospitals)
