  • The breakdown in negotiations was mostly due to Canada’s insistence on the UK loosening its food safety regulations, according to several people familiar with the matter.

    Canada’s agriculture and food processing market is geared toward exporting to the US, where practices such as chemical carcass-washing and hormone-injected beef and pork are commonplace. In the EU, and the UK by virtue of its former membership of the bloc, such practices are banned.

    I don't blame them for not accepting that deal.

  • only hitting eastern Canada

    No. The central part of the shadow is only in the east, but even in BC you'll see a little nibble out of the sun.

  • ANY TIME you stare at the sun

    That's true, but you usually don't stare at the sun because there really isn't much to see. With an eclipse people will stare for several minutes or until their eyes boil.

  • "Get your own letter!"

    KDE probably.
