It is interesting to see that Canadian apathy has suddenly turned into a united stand for Canada.
I heard a 10 year old kid in the store yesterday, “Dad, can I get this? I checked , it is made in Canada”
It sucks it has come to this.
Doug Ford is a douche, but he is enough of a douche to not be politically correct in terms of relations with the USA.
I wish I was Canadian
I don’t, but that’s mostly because I like having very good Internet access and I’m European.
If I was USian, I’d wish I was Canadian.
What’s your Internet? I’ll you mine if your tell me yours.
I’m gigabit both directions and I could get as high as 3. I’ve heard they are testing 5 some areas. My 1gbit is around 90 of Canadian money. It’s fibre to my apt.
Your prices and speeds are far from what I hear being typical for Canada, but I’m paying 35 euros a month for 500 mbps symmetrical. Gigabit on the website is 73 euros. But that’s because I’m in an apartment built when the local monopoly was putting in fiber. Older buildings that were retrofitted later, as well as buildings that were built later, tend to have more providers available. There’s one that gives you 1 gig for 35 euros for the first year - and I know they’ll be amenable to keeping that arrangement later because you can just threaten to switch and they’ll cave. A third is giving out gigabit at 45 Euros for indefinite periods.
Do keep in mind, Estonia is plagued by a Telia monopoly. Other EU countries tend to have cheaper prices. Romania has so much competition, gigabit up/down is like 8 euros and I don’t think they offer speeds under 300 mbps apparently.
This is not typical for Canada.
It is in cities.
Many of us act like Americans from 10 years ago. Be careful what you wish for.
Me too!
Sucks because my profession doesn’t really exist in Canada, so I can’t bring anything of value if I try to immigrate there.
How does a profession not exist in Canada? Are you a 3rd party medical markup expert?
That’s an interesting statement. Feel free to not answer, but I’m curious what industry you’re in.
I’m a Certified Surgical First Assistant. In Canada they use RNs. I guess I could get my RN, but I’d have to go back to school.
Edit: I worded that poorly. The role exists in Canada, but the actual profession of SFA doesn’t. I could be misinformed, but that’s what I’ve been told.
I see, that is interesting. Thanks!
No problem. It’s pretty dumb. They created these positions (CST, CSFA, CSA, etc) and separated them from nurses so that they can pay lower and require different certifications and memberships. Typical American bullshit, all about the $$$
So you have like pretty much the same education as an RN, but a different cert?
I can see how that might be frustrating as hell tbh
fluffer
American (and Canadian) politicians have fucked over Canada every step of the way for a long as I can remember but it was always done with the thinnest veneer of diplomacy to cover up the absolute disregard for an entire country’s population. This is the first time that a politician has been dumb enough to fuck over not only the people of Canada but also it’s oligarchs. Canada’s ruling class has decided it’s ok to revolt against our neighbour’s bad behaviour and so it’s being spun by the news and politicians as ‘Canadian Patriotism.’
Nope. You can’t let trump bully us into becoming part of the USA. If this is what it takes for Canada to grow balls I’m all for it.
