It's one of those things that's simultaneously pretty important and not important at all. Their role in Parliament is ceremonial, but they're still something of a dignitary.

Fun!

Star Trek IV is a bit of a left-field choice, but I'm not mad about it.

The judge's statements are appropriately scathing.

Justice Conlan said he commends the work of the defence and the Crown in this case.

He said it is not the defence's fault "the evidence of their clients has been found to be worthless."

All in all, he said, the Crown proved its case beyond a reasonable doubt on every count.

He said electronic evidence "points overwhelmingly to the guilt of the accused."

He wrote they "paint a picture of loathe and hate by both accused towards the boys, especially towards L."

The judge said a Dec. 28, 2020, audio recording played in court of the women berating L.L. was "so difficult to listen to," and "is just a terrible and shocking exhibit of abuse of L. by these accused."

He said a Sept. 24, 2021, video the court viewed of L.L. using a small portable toilet to relieve himself was "excruciating to watch."

"This court could go on and on, but for what purpose other than to, in a way, continue to victimize L. He should be remembered for more than this."

I’m sure there’s a pitch to studios that could work, but

That's pretty much where I'm at. Is it something I think I desperately need? Not by a long shot.

Could they do something interesting with it? Sure, I guess.

They announced the show would be ending, but gave it another season. That's the opposite of a sunk cost, but thanks for showing your whole ass.

Your definition of "sunk cost" seems...unique.

Since 2004, lower-end new home prices have risen by 265%, while young dual-earner incomes grew 76%

There is a current "Return to Duty" promotion that's available to all players - a free "Jem'hadar Vanguard" character, which is normally a premium, upgraded version of a basic Jem'Hadar character. I keep forgetting to claim it for myself.

There's also a starter pack on sale in the in-game store. It's got some nice stuff in it, but I think you'd be fine without it if you don't want to spend the money.

The old one should work fine, though I seem to remember some people having to contact support to access characters that have been dormant for a long time...

Well, this new route is about 360 km, so not exactly a commuter distance.

It's also a straight shot down the Trans-Canada Highway, and they already have a terminus in Regina for their existing lines. All in all, a good start for expansion.

Of course, what's really needed is routes to rural, northern, and underserved communities, but that won't happen without government subsidies.

I don't understand why seemingly no one in this country raises the possibility of day fines, both for individuals and organizations. Why have a maximum at all?
