There’s a HUGE lobbying effort to convince the people in power that this is a good idea. Lots of tech-surveillance companies bidding for this to go through, so everyone is forced to use their services. You think identity theft is bad now? Wait until you need to put your ID on the internet and that gets leaked.
Related: For people in Toronto, the Canadian Stage currently has a production on called “Universal Childcare”. It’s artsy, educational and fun! Highly recommend checking it out if you are able.

Unlikely. Since Service Ontario deals with health data, it’ll likely be attached to a government system and data centres. Staples wouldn’t touch this deal if they were responsible for the IT due to the liability.
It’s likely only a real estate and staffing agreement.
Yellowknife has had a housing crisis for decades. Bad choice.
I dread the day I need to take care of my parents to that degree. Parents in the burbs, neither of the kids drive. It’s at least transitable and my parents were decent people. There’s still trauma but it’s healing.
Still, how do you balance work to pay rent with the need to care for ailing loved ones? Something’s going to give when the boomers start becoming disabled en masse.
YouTube has more than 1 video for every human alive on this planet. I can’t help but wonder: what is the value of all this?
Toronto might as well be it’s own province, right? The Portlands Gas Plant on the lakeshore in East Toronto is the #1 emitter of GHG in the city and while operating at under 40% capacity. The Province of Ontario wants to expand the production capacity of this plant and run it constantly at max capacity. Thanks Doug.
Will this still be the case after the layoffs? https://www.readthemaple.com/cbc-union-says-it-was-promised-no-job-cuts-this-year/
It’s unfortunate that this has to be a bad thing.
Bandcamp was sold off without the unionized employees. If you’re doing this to be pro-labour, you can’t really support Bandcamp right now.
I agree. Important conversations, strange format choice. I do expect better of the Walrus.
Damn. Those TERF colours flying.
This was a tough read. In a supposedly affirming article, why would you mention the 88% detransition success rate multiple times when you’re going to bury the fact that the study has methodological flaws at the very bottom of the article in tiny footnotes?
Do trans people not face enough systemic barriers?
I left Reddit with the API fiasco and never looked back. Happier without it.
Well, it’s /r/Canada, which is just a right winged mod-controlled shit hole. All the progressives went to /r/onguardforthee a long time ago.
It’s that same sovereign nation’s acting chief asking for a DNA test. It’s between them now.
Alternatively, microwave fish every day for lunch in the kitchenette near the execs. We must suffer together.
I’d say so. It’s one corrupt opportunistic person versus the entire union. If it were multiple people at the top of the union who were involved, I’d have second thoughts.
This news redirects the anger away from the billionaire developers.
Does no one remember the Ashley Madison leaks including .gc.ca emails?
