It was a BQ riding, not CPC.

July 1 is his self-established deadline.

There’s absolutely no reason to think any show is being made “instead of” another.

Edit: And as Newsome herself stated, this series has not been greenlit. It may not get made at all.

I don’t think you needed [sic]

Just wanted to make sure - I stumbled over that sentence when reading it!

It’s pretty hard to make the case that we “need” any work of fiction.

At SDCC CBS sent us a synopsis, essentially a workplace comedy on a vacation planet – not Risa, not in the Federation. So are those fundamentals are still the same?

Those fundamentals are the same. But what I can tell you is what we’re really working on exploring, are the sort of overlooked sections of what happens when a world and a culture that is not that was not [sic] in the Federation. What happens when they decide to be?… So Federation outsiders and what’s kind of the nitty gritty involved with joining the Federation and involved with… yeah, I’m really struggling [to avoid spoilers]

That’s an interesting adjustment…

Well you see, she doesn’t support sovereignty, and has to stop them from starting their own party, so obviously she has to give them what they want, stoke the flames, and make it easier to hold a referendum.

It’s so simple!

At this point, “one crank neurologist” seems to be the most likely explanation by far.

This was an independent study, not the government investigation.

The difference is, unlike the Prime Directive, we want these principles to be followed.

The original promo, in all its glory.

I’m by no means suggesting that the FDA cuts are good (they are, to be very clear, dumb and bad), but in theory, food is still being tested at the state level.

I can only hope that the Government of Canada is aware of the state programs, and whether they are suitably robust.

Here’s to those 14 years of complete mismanagement…

Another thing to consider is that many people simply aren’t that engaged, and the news ecosystem on both sides of the border has deteriorated to the point where it’s very easy to go through life with bad information, or no information at all.

It’s probably not that hard for a low-information voter to be swayed by big talk, even if they’re not a cultist.

I think it’s a nuanced question - I’ve heard that the Cuban community in Florida is very Republican because they’re seen as stronger against the Cuban regime.

In other cases, I think people are very willing to vote for people who promise to help them with their most immediate problems (regardless of how credible those promises are), and overlook the rest.

And we should never underestimate the willingness of people to close a door behind them once they’ve gotten through it.

One thing he doesn’t touch on (much) is that a significant number of NDP supporters - probably “working class” supporters - seemed to flip to the Conservatives, and not the Liberals.

The party is going to have to reckon with that, too.

It’s probably another move to distance himself from Trudeau’s choices.
