Correlation attacks, China is king of hoovering up data.
Overly dramatic example: you are in the armed forces, you have a TikTok account, you post a bunch of shit that shows you are in the armed forces. You get deployed for some covert fuckabout and are told to leave your phone at home. You turn off your phone, pick up 3 of your buddies in your Chinese EV and drive to the base/airport/sea port. Dozens of people do this and by seeing the pattern China knows that a bunch of armed forces are being told to quietly deploy.
A less dramatic example might be figuring out where politicians are by knowing where their employees are.
It’s a natural monopoly and should be nationalized into Crown corporations.
So it can be destroyed like Canada post? Power, energy and telcos should be government owned and operated like the military. They are essential and their primary purpose should be to provide a service NOT turn a profit.
They aren't paying their fair share of taxes. The wealthy pay politicians both monetary and non-monetary bribes a significantly smaller sum than the taxes they avoid. If the bribes were more than the taxes they would just pay the taxes.
Too late, when your neighbour threatens to burn down your house you don't wait until you smell smoke to grab a hose. For the next four years, fuck em. Canada has enough problems internally without having to play footsies with a geriatric moron and his billionaire owner.
Spending your retirement in the US is a huge fuck-you to Canada to begin with. You extracted a retirement's worth of wealth from Canada and then you hand half of it to another country.
That was never a thing, we have the most technologically ignorant government around. At least the US government can use privacy violation for their own gain.
Blogger uses a clickbait title, you're never guess what happened next!
What happened next is I don't take the article seriously, titling it like the audience is a bunch of 14 year olds with impulse control issues is a great way to burn credibility.
Solar is fast to install and "cheap" but the lifespan of panels is no more than 20 years, and batteries last 1s of years if cycled every day. Not to mention Ontario only gets ~1200kWh/m2 per year of sunlight, in the southern US it's >2000.
Nuclear is very expensive and takes a long time to build you are getting a plant that will last for decades without needing to have every part replaced and gives you more than 20kWh/m2 including the area taken up by support buildings and employee parking. (The Pickering plant is about 1km2 and puts out 23.6TWh)
It's far worse than overcomplicated, it's negligently designed. The CAN bus is exposed through the exterior lighting in many new vehicles giving anyone with a $3 dongle access nearly all functions (door locks, alarm, engine control).
Would be a shame if Canada had to up the price to make up for the slump in sales. It costs a lot of money to run a smelter and lower production increases the overhead per ton of product.
