flakeloaf posted:well if it exists at all, and it must, somewhere has to be the place where it happens most uh I'd like to get sources on saguenay because I live there and have never heard of any poo poo like that. In fact Saguenay's been in the top 10 safest cities in Canada a bunch of times in the last 10 years. The Hells used to own most of the main street in Jonquiere but have mostly been kicked out and their last bunker has been destroyed around 2005. They still have members around (mostly directed from Trois-Rivières) but usually what everyone hears is just about drugs and whatnot.

flakeloaf posted:"census metropolitan area" naturally excludes whatever rural backwater actually has the highest rate; also that's per capita Oh alright. Looking back at the 'safest cities' lists those are mostly about violent offenses/murder rates so the stats don't contradict. I also thought the discussion had to do with human trafficking, but those are sexual offenses as a whole (far less than 5% have to do with sexual exploitation) I think it might be disingenuous to blame sexual offenses overall on the Hells having a toehold to be honest. I wouldn't be surprised if part of it had to do with sexism and irresponsible drinking culture for example, or just plain old lovely rural areas living up to their stereotypes.

Yeah, I mean looking at sex crimes against minors, I wouldn't be surprised if the priests actually did more harm than the Hells there. One priest in particular has been having a very public trial after finding out he had abused 39 children on his own on a period of 20+ years.FrozenVent posted:the joke around quebec is that in saguenay, cousins and sisters are ok because there's not much choice otherwise, so... yeah... It used to be true, in that most of the region of Saguenay Lac-St-Jean was founded by 21 families a couple of centuries ago and so genetic diversity was not super high. This has changed in the last few generations and nowadays the consanguinity rates are on par with the rest of the province or country, but genetically speaking the damage was already done many generations ago and few recessive genes causing multiple diseases are still widespread. People can get genetic testing for free if they're from two families of the region to prevent this -- even if you and your partner are from families that have been distinct for 3-4 generations you might still be a carrier -- and to avoid passing it on. The tests are made available in a wider area of the province this year I believe because, well, people moved out and those genes are now making it to a wider population basin within the province. It's probably a bit similar to the icelandic app that lets you know if you could accidentally be dating cousins or something. But back to techbubble: the FCC repeal stuff became official for real or something? MononcQc fucked around with this message at 15:08 on Feb 23, 2018 |

fishmech posted:That isn't net neutrality It quite literally is net neutrality. Here's a wikipedia source interleaved with the legal ruling so you can feel at home: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_neutrality posted:Net neutrality is the principle that governments should mandate Internet service providers to treat all data on the Internet the same, and not discriminate or charge differently by user, content, website, platform, application, type of attached equipment, or method of communication. ruling posted:The Commission finds that Quebecor Media Inc., Videotron Ltd., and Videotron G.P. (collectively, Videotron) are acting in violation of subsection 27(2) of the Telecommunications Act by exempting the Unlimited Music program from data charges. Subsection 27(2) prohibits Canadian carriers from giving an undue or unreasonable preference to themselves or any other person, or subjecting any person to an undue or unreasonable disadvantage. Videotron is giving an undue preference to subscribers who access the Unlimited Music program and to the providers whose services are included in that program, and is subjecting providers and consumers of other content and services to a corresponding undue disadvantage. Look, it's even in the wikipedia section for net neutrality in Canada And it has widely been quoted as being related to net neutrality by media like CBC, Financial Post, Global News, and so on. I'm going to leave it at this. You're free to respond back, but I won't engage again and derail this thread further.

the last cab driver I had in SF a couple of months ago complained about the total lack of background checks on uber drivers, and then proceeded to tell me about how he recently spent a few weeks in jail for "beating up a bum that had smashed his cab's window" before the cops arrested him, and how much of a shame it is that americans can no longer protect their own property. The strong eastern european accent made it kind of better. E: he also complained about the presence of video cameras in his lovely apartment complex (as he described it) where his girlfriend apparently got assaulted on multiple occasions by people breaking and entering. The cameras made him feel like they no longer had freedoms anymore, and it was big-brother like and felt like a prison. anyway that's my uber vs. cab drivers story for the day. (I had a cabbie who picked me up at the SFO airport once, and asked if I could pay him in drugs. Not the best place for someone to just be carrying drugs but welp) MononcQc fucked around with this message at 05:06 on May 1, 2018 |

I’m super pumped every time there’s 200 new posts and I think Elon Musk murdered a union rep but it turns out nbsd is just once again extrapolating from his own narrow personal experience and aggressively swearing up and down that no other experiences exist in the world, and if they do then they don’t matter. Only to go “oh that branch of banking, no I don’t know that one, I’m only familiar with that other branch” in the same bit and not picking up on the irony.

is not going to an ivy league school in the US going to cripple your job prospects seriously for a long time? Like can you make an analysis that goes "you'll lose 20k/y in prospective wages by not getting $150k in unforgiveable debt by going to a community college" and then figure out when you'd break even?

80% all the time and other permanent rebates are actually an illegal practice here and the way some shops go about it is that they have something similar to happy hours where like 4-9 pm gives you 40% off but if you go during dead hours, it's full price. interesting tactic.

the only people who stay in shorts at or below freezing points are folks with hormone imbalances who can only feel heat, ladies going through menopause (pretty much same as last category), poor and homeless people who can't afford jackets, and dipshit tryhards who somehow equate "willingly freezing" with "display of courage" and are really into impressing random bystanders.

Suspicious Dish posted:still want to hear more about the military applications of the arctic I think it's been covered already, but mostly it's been the quickest way for multiple parts of Russia to reach North America, so you may want some surveillance or presence there. There are frequent near-incursions from Russia into Canadian and American airspace to this day (it could be multiple times a year in 2014 and before, and they caught them trying once or twice in 2017 and 2018 iirc). You've also got global warming shrinking the ices up north, and with various suspected oil resources, there's going to be more and more traffic up there, with the expectation that Russia will challenge Canada's claim on arctic waters more and more over the upcoming decades. There's a military communications intercept and weather station in Alert, Canada, which is definitely falling into the arctic circle, and is the most northern permanently inhabited location in the world. It was used to intercept soviet communications. There's only a few ships that made it there in history, the rest of people reach it through a small landing strip and road (~6km):
