  • If it's run by a group of tyrannical old people that can't be usurped, it's not really a co-op.

  • Co-ops are better than government run anyways, since the members are the owners, invested members can make the right choices for the store/community/region instead of a blanket provincial/federal policies.

    Go to your local co-op.

    If you don't have one, make one.

  • I'm guessing you don't have a lot of experience with student protests? They are very common in Montréal, there is nothing extraordinary about this one.

    And McGill's property is semi-private. The university recieves public funds, has easements with the city, and does PIL instead of property tax. So it's not as clear cut and dry as say, someone's kitchen.

    • Ontario to ban use of cellphones in school classrooms starting in September

    Jump

  • I agree. Teachers are ALREADY trying to stop kids using cellphones in class, this just gives tools to do so.

    If a student breaks the rules, their cellphone should be immediately surrendered to a staff members and parents will be notified.

    • Yes, you cannot, so to do it do like this

  • Facebook is a community where people use their authentic identities. It's against the Facebook Community Standards to maintain more than one personal account.

    So yes, you CAN, but it's against their community standards.

    In all seriousness, homarr now has some fledgling home assistant integration, and I saw a really slick showcase in the discord where someone was using home assistant pages in iframes (mobile view) within a overall homarr page (desktop view).

  • Not everyone in Québec is a French Canadian. There are also French Canadians in the rest of Canada.

    But I'm guessing laïcité is a concept you would like to learn more about before making sweeping judgements? Laïcité isn't perfect, but neither is exemptionism. Laïcité fails people who want to completely freely express their religion, where exemptionism fails those who want to be free from the religion of others.

    Have spend time in religious-conflict zones, I'm personally biased towards laïcité. You can imagine Muslims and Jews might want some freedom from seeing symbols of the other's religion in public institutions right now with the ongoing conflict. Similar feeling for Christians, Orthodox, and Muslims after the Yugoslavian wars; or Christians and Muslims in sub-saharan African; or Sunnis and Shias on Yemen; or anyone who's not Deobandian Sunni in Afghanistan.

    Exemptionism is great for people who haven't experienced religious persecution. Québécois.e.s feel, real or precived, that they were persecuted by their own religion. This led to the silent revolution, and has a lasting effect of voting in favour of more restrictive, over open, religious freedom laws.

    I hope this helps, and of you have examples of which darker skin religions do not get to keep their culture, I would be interested to hear. My own burrough has large Haitian, Jamaican, and Côté d'ivoirian communities; and a fledgling laosian one.
