@dangillmor Someone convince #MarkCarney et al to promote this thing internationally, especially in countries not engaged in any trade war against us. Exporting train cars of these through our Pacific and Atlantic ports to Oceania, Asia, Europe, Africa, and South and Central America, with federal assistance to scale for international demand, would harm the #separatist cause.
And spreading #rightToRepair is an unalloyed good anyway. @avilewis, you at least know the guy. Happen to have a means to get in touch? I imaging the #NDP would be supportive of helping other countries get free of the US duopoly with their inbuilt kill-switches.
Meanwhile, can anyone persuade this company to offer an electric variant? If it's just as independently repairable, a lot of countries would want that option instead.

Doesn't matter what Donbass Danielle or those people who signed the petition want. If you don't like it, move the fuck out.
"Court sides with First Nations, says Alberta failed its duty to consult on separatist referendum."
Utah is a case study in how NOT to announce and build a hyperscale data centre.
Opposition is so significant that lawmakers who once supported the project are backtracking, with one politician even demanding Kevin O’Leary scale the project back by 75%.
Here’s an updated summary of what’s been going on in Utah, with some updates on Alberta’s Wonder Valley project ahead of an open house planned for this evening in a small hamlet near Grande Prairie.
The MD of Greenview still won’t answer my questions. O’Leary’s proxy in Alberta also did not answer my questions…and oh yeah, the Office of the Information and Privacy Commissioner is officially now investigating whether the Premier’s office fulfilled its duties with my Access to Information request.

Alberta's referendum questions are "framed to divide us: to make neighbours into strangers, and strangers into threats," writes Jared Wesley. "We must reject this process and these questions."
"What we need is a politics of dignity." #abpoli
