They were doing that long before AI was a thing.

Maybe this wouldn't happen if they made vehicles that don't need fuel pumps?

without first forcing him to live in Winnipeg

Hey! No fair.

What did Winnipeg ever do to you to deserve sending fuckwads like this here?

High tech doesn't have to be abusive.

No, but they regularly seem to choose that path.

And, I would assume, if anyone had done that training it would be FBI agents.

As if anyone trusted Patel anyway.

Getting in a war of words with a professional stand up comedian.

That doesn't seem like a very "stable genius " move.

"We are still attempting to negotiate with the Trump administration, but with the changing situation the negotiations are at a delicate point and I cannot risk divulging any further details that might further complicate already challenging discussions".

Assuming they survive that long.

doing everything in secret, no updates.

Do you think it would be beneficial for him to put out a press release saying what aces he has up his sleeve, what the plan is to counter Trump's next move, or any other parts of the negotiations?

Increasingly European governments are moving away from Microsoft to open source software.

That is an example (and a proven path) that Canada can follow.

What about reveting media ownership limits back to what they were previously?

The last thing you do when a toddler throws a tantrum is give in to their demands.

But when it's a toddler with a (nuclear) gun, you do have to tread very carefully and choose your battles wisely.

I can't say yet if Carney has currently made all of the most wise choices. I don't think anyone has enough information (including him) yet to make that call. Time will tell.

I certainly don't envy him this task.

Who said that?

The strawman.

I suspect it's unchanged from its already low number in those places.

I bought some BC cherries today (in Winnipeg)
