It is literally the same party federally and provincially.

Several provinces are trying to detach, namely Alberta for Alberta reasons.

Does no one remember the Ashley Madison leaks including .gc.ca emails?

Reminds me of the Boston Tea Party. It was in solidarity with the Great Bengali Famine caused by the East India Company.

There's a HUGE lobbying effort to convince the people in power that this is a good idea. Lots of tech-surveillance companies bidding for this to go through, so everyone is forced to use their services. You think identity theft is bad now? Wait until you need to put your ID on the internet and that gets leaked.

"This is my favourite Indian restaurant." It has always been my favourite too. I think of John every time I go there. He was old, but passed away suddenly.

It's weird how the strangest things like this stick with you.

I presume there would be an employer with unionized employees who uses Manulife as their insurance provider.

A smaller company ClaimSercure had been pulling this shit with Rexall. Is it time for unions to test Canada's antitrust laws?

Unlikely. Since Service Ontario deals with health data, it'll likely be attached to a government system and data centres. Staples wouldn't touch this deal if they were responsible for the IT due to the liability.

It's likely only a real estate and staffing agreement.

Kinda cool, but heavy strobe warning for any light sensitive people out there.

I'd rather leave it to the experts who study this stuff.

The only one I've heard of is called the "triple bottom line". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triple_bottom_line

Does this not say it all? "The report estimates that students from India alone will provide Ontario colleges with $2 billion in operating revenue for the 2023-2024 school year. That's slightly more than those colleges receive from the provincial government."

 

I did a short contract with an entity in the US and am trying to figure out how they can pay me. I have a business and a Canadian business account.

Is there a recommended low risk/effort service I should use? I am in Ontario if that matters.
