Well, since there is no syphilis vaccine, nobody is vaccinated.
... more consistency with our competitors...
They don't sound like competitors, but partners; collusion, no competition.
What happened to "competition lowers prices"?
The letter I'm sending to my MP:
I urge you to fight against this proposal on moral grounds. That might sound like an odd point of view, but hear me out.
One of the greatest challenges facing us with online activities is not what we or our children have access to, but how companies are handling critical permanent identification. Every day there is a new report of some entity that has lost control of information that has a major negative impact on those whose information was exposed.
There are ways to effectively manage such information and there are companies and government departments deploying those systems. However, there is currently no legal or regulatory framework making those systems and methods mandatory. Until that legal and regulatory environment exists, it is not just a bad idea to expand data collection requirements, but immoral.
To be clear, I'm not talking about the possibility that some person is exposed as a consumer of pornography. I'm talking about those whose incompetence and/or low standards of care allow criminals to gain access to the identifying data for use in criminal activity.
I don't know about you, but the porn industry is the last industry I would ever trust to properly secure and manage identifying information.
Thanks for your time and consideration.
How about instead of being "not trained to do" neck kneelings, they be trained not to do neck kneelings.
Let each ~~person~~ business rise and fall according the merits of their work and quality of their duties. No ~~person~~ business is entitled to anything. Even respect has to be earned.
You missed this pretty important part of "doing the job": And when you are unable to do the job, make room for some else to try.
I wish more people had the self-awareness to realize when it's time to hand off to someone else.
Seems straightforward to me. It's pretty typical to permit testimony from those who were directly victimized. It's also pretty typical to permit impact statements from those indirectly victimized.
Just so you know, judges are specifically not to look to the will of the people but to the law.
Legislators are the ones who are supposed to consider the will of the people.
If the will of the people really is to have a law like this, then the Sask Party is doing it's job in bringing forward the legislation. That, of course, assumes that our provincial government has appropriate jurisdiction over everything the law covers.
And that gets us to the injunction. An injunction is not about "no you can't do that" but about "hang on there, it doesn't look like you've covered all the bases".
... Canadian retailers lack direct control and influence over the global supply chain...
I'm going to call BS on that one. Some of the largest retailers own many parts of the supply chain and exercise monopsony power over many other parts.
I think that the active participation of members is how we get strong communities. One way to be an active participant is to take responsibility for what you want to see. If you don't like the bot, block it.
This is analogous to walking out of a movie you dislike rather than calling for it to be banned.
As far as I can tell, it's not breaking any terms of service or policy. That doesn't mean that terms of service and policy can't be modified, but that should be done only to address general principles, not specific cases. (Although it may be that a specific case makes obvious the need for change.)
Self-care is important, though. Without caring about and for myself, I would never have left shitty employers behind. Now, of course, self-care is something pushed by those who want us to suck it up and live with shitty policies.
An interesting contrast here. Air Canada is forced to honour an erroneous committment made by its service department. Government of Canada is not forced to honour a committment made by its service department.
I could understand it if the error was discovered and acted upon in a reasonable time, but over 30 years? That's just not acceptable.
