Manitoba @lemmy.ca

Manitoba tourism gets $1.85M boost from Ottawa

  • Things have changed so much since 2005, it's incredibly difficult to create a bona fide cultural phenomenon. And even if you can, sustaining it is a whole 'nother ball game.

    I guess I don't really know what level of popularity is realistic...or even desirable.

  • The most recent season seemed perfectly average to me.

  • Pretty much. There's a strong argument that "eliminating barriers" may be synonymous with "deregulation," which...could go badly.

  • This was a decent explainer. In a nutshell...

    • There are four categories of trade barriers in Canada: natural barriers such as geography, prohibitive barriers such as restrictions on the sale of alcohol, technical barriers such as vehicle weight standards and regulatory barriers such as licensing and paperwork requirements.
    • The 2017 CFTA was intended to cut down on some of these barriers, but all provinces and territories negotiated exemptions for various reasons, ranging from different safety regulations across provinces, to different language requirements, to industry protectionism.

    It's not clear right now which barriers the feds can unilaterally eliminate (and whether we agree with all of them), but I guess we'll find out within the next week or so.

  • The Roddenberry Archive is probably the best place - navigate to the section called "765874".

    They just link to YouTube videos, but I find the actual YouTube channel challenging to find stuff in.

  • I don't know if I agree with that assessment, but they do seem to have one writer who does nothing but write about how bad Carney is, and another who does nothing but write about how bad Freeland is.

  • From what I can tell, he would have to have acquired the citizenship fraudulently, and he didn't.

    There used to be a mechanism for the citizenship of people convicted of treason, spying, and terrorism offences to be revoked, but it was repealed in 2018.

    I would like to think the rule of law still applies here.

  • That seems like a weird whatabout. How is your job related to how much funding the CBC gets?

  • In the end, funding the Ukraine-Russia war instead of promoting the peaceful settlement that was being negotiated between Ukraine and Russia in April 2022 has been a disaster for Ukraine and for Europe.

  • In Western Canada, I know there are Co-op Gold-branded filters. I don't have any at the moment, so I can't confirm where they're made, exactly.

  • I'm unfortunately not free tomorrow, but Apocalyptica is pretty great. Anyone who has the opportunity to see them should take it.

  • Well technically that would be a cancellation, not a shelving. 😁

    But I'm honestly not worried - even if Disney doesn't renew, the property is a cash cow for the BBC, and I think they'd keep it going.

    Do you Believe in a No Win Scenario?

  • I either missed this, or is has been added to the article:

    Audio recording from Pearson's air traffic control tower shows that Delta Air Lines Flight 4819 was cleared to land shortly after 2 p.m. and that the tower warned the pilots of a possible air flow "bump" in the glide path from an aircraft in front of it, according to a report from The Canadian Press.

    So wake turbulence could be a factor.

  • For a plane to completely go over like that, I would have to think it was significantly overspeed...

  • Their logo is familiar - I'm sure I've seen at least some of their products in stores...

  • Kerr's looks like it has a comparable product line to Nutty Club.

  • To say nothing of,

    [Cindy] Blackstock said Canada has never provided supporting documentation for its claims of misuse, and that there is no evidence of how widespread the problem is.
