All I have seen are endless stories about restaurants everywhere publicly announcing they will be violating the rules and nothing happening from it. I saw a blurb about exactly one restaurant in Nova Scotia publicly announcing their intent to violate, who then changed their tune after getting a visit from enforcement people. No idea if everyone else is going along or just being quiet about it.

It's being enforced in Ottawa. And most of the time, in my experience at least, the people checking are actually taking their time to read the vaccine receipt and compare it to my ID.

I'm looking to take my suit in a garment bag as a carry on, but the website information about that is hopelessly vague. I have this exact same question except on a WestJet flight. I'm assuming it counts as a separate carry on in case I already have 2?

I would either wear it on the plane or just carry it on with everything else. I doubt anyone will complain, it takes so little room atop other bags in the overhead. (I say this as a member of many demographics that don't usually get hassled at airports or on airplanes.)

I got checked at a restaurant in Vancouver, checked at my hair salon, and NOT checked at a restaurant in Mission. Only reason I stayed at that one was cause it was dead empty inside. Places are being named and shamed at least. Everyone at Thanksgiving dinner was talking about how they’re never going to Rolly’s again. I’ve never been there but I doubt they’ll exist much longer.

Not to be all "but BC is worse" but BC is just as bad as Alberta in many ways. An infant died of covid in BC in April and Henry immediately mentioned that the child had underlying conditions when the death was announced. But no one seemed to care? Then there's poo poo like this: https://twitter.com/NoLore/status/1445935711958491136?t=6cMMQgE2UPzD_VKa7Xrx4g&s=19 https://twitter.com/brish_ti/status/1443289035284238336?t=BX-KJ1jxK-8889vjrLuCrQ&s=19 And ostensibly trying to hide many cases and 12 deaths (as of now) in a single LTC. https://twitter.com/realreporter/status/1448831673433350153?t=cBEZlRYTE2WjJ9V9YIr67A&s=19 So why does BC get a pass for it's poo poo show?

BC is still in the "Hide it away from public eyes" stage. Grouchio posted:So how bad is Bill 96 for anglo speakers in quebec? Biggest potential impact Ive read about is loss of access to healthcare as services will only be provided in French and basic English (but only if you can prove some weird qualification). Could be bad, no way to tell yet though. Id be more concerned about the potential economic impact for every Quebec resident. The bill in its current form incentivizes companies with offices of more than 25 employees to basically move base of operations to outside the province and just run small offices for coordination. Could be huge job losses, not to mention the brain drain that comes with that kind of shift.

Cos for every few boneheaded decisions they occasionally do something none terrible (I think first in country with vaccine passports and the implementation is pretty good, locking down north) while the prairies are constantly stepping on rakes so it's a case of 'well at least we aren't those guys'

People in Ontario can start downloading their enhanced vaccine certificates. Those born in January - April can get it today. May - August tomorrow and September - December on Sunday. It’s just another PDF file you can save to your phone but apparently if you have an iPhone view it on your desktop you can scan it with the camera app to add the certificate to the Health app. I haven’t tried that yet though.

I feel like this is the beginning of a nightmare scenario where Ontario Libs somehow are able to ram through ranked ballots, and the public conversation across the country around "electoral reform" shifts from being about PR vs FPTP to instead being about Ranked Ballots vs FPTP (a win/win situation for the Liberals). Accordingly the entire "electoral reform" activist movement is extinguished for a generation (or forever) as Canadians are told that ranked ballots are "better than nothing" and the Fed Libs finally successfully implement Ranked Ballots and bring about a return of alternating Red/Blue Majorities instead of the permanent minority governments that we've been trending toward. https://twitter.com/robertbenzie/status/1449086957578067972

Arc Hammer posted:So is there a reason New Brunswick's tory government is ordering employees to not make indigenous land acknowledgements? Did Higgs see his plummeting approval rating and say "we need to dig deeper" or something? There is a court case between the NB Government and various First Nation groups, between what is tribal land and what isn't. Officially saying that all the land is not NB's but is "unceded" or "unsurrendered" is basically giving up any claim. quote:"As you may be aware, the Government of New Brunswick (GNB) is currently involved in a number of legal actions which have been initiated by certain First Nations against the province, including a claim to ownership and title to over 60% of the Province," read Flemming's leaked memo, which was later verified by a provincial spokesperson. So litigation tactic, not as bad as not acknowledging the first nations land, but still..

Officially saying that all the land is not NB's but is "unceded" or "unsurrendered" is basically giving up any claim. It kinda cuts to the core of what territorial acknowledgements are about. "Unceded" has a very specific meaning in the context of First Nations who had land taken away without even the window dressing of a treaty, whcih apparently was the case in New Brunswick.

Well I wouldn't know what standing NB has on their land, and what was stolen or what was given up via treaty. At the very least it isn't NB being racist just because.

Grouchio posted:I ask because my favorite canadian streamer couple is moving out of Montreal (and the province) after one too many encounters with rabid francophones in their lovely neighborhood: This super sucks, I still listen to their podcast every week, they're a super fun couple. Should be noted the guy grew up in Montreal so him leaving is certainly not for lack of trying. Obviously some people will get along fine being English in Montreal, but there's a real problem going on there. Next week's "Castle Superbeast" podcast on Twitch will probably be pretty heavy on the details of this event and everything leading up to their decision. I've been of the impression that Quebec seceding is not a serious risk for a long time now. But maybe that's not quite the case anymore given that people are more inclined to embrace full-stupid these days.

Yeah as a life long montrealer, there are definitely some areas you don't want to be yapping about in English if you want to avoid the headaches of dealing with hardliners. Hochelaga is 100% one of them.
