Amazon is shutting down its operations in Quebec, where unions started to gain traction. This decision will lay off 1,700 employees, showcasing the company's blatant disregard for workers. It's a disgraceful act of corporate greed that should not be tolerated!

It will be a war against robotics (who are winning more ground)!
I think Mark Cuban is the only rich non-asshole though Richard Branson appears to be trying to get in that space too.
He’s trying to show how tough he thinks he is.

Amazon could not have done that if unions were present country-wide in Canada.
He mocks Canadians.
e.g. Amazon hasn't even bothered to add the Canada Post API to its platform .. making it difficult to verify that a parcel with mandatory tracking has been put in the mail.
Pathetic.
My credit card gives me points that I can use there so I’ve bought a few things with points.
