He pled guilty, accepted his judgment without argument, and has shown genuine remorse. Is this not the kind of person we want more of here? Yes, he did a horrible thing, but the situation was a result of forces much larger than this one man.

Yes! I hope the best for them!

Thirty per cent of those calls were within five blocks of Prairie Harm Reduction, which offered support services to people living with addictions and operated the city’s only supervised drug consumption site until it closed last month.

So… Mr. Moe, tell me again why we didn’t need those supervised sites? Instead of having dedicated staff on-hand and ready to assist overdoses, we added pressure to an already strained emergency response system? Lovely. Good work there Slow Moe.

Says the weasel who went on Joe Rogan. Those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones PP. You have no right to criticize Carney’s social media posts after that.

That is Identity Verification. CRA confirms a lot more with your bank than just your age.

Which province are you in? I’ve never heard of such a thing in my province?

I live in Canada, so not sure what the USA has to do with my verification capabilities. (This article is also Canadian, so not sure what the US has to do with anything)

But there still needs to be some mechanism for said discovery. If that mechanism is me being subjected to an AI “facial estimate” or uploading my ID, those are big NO’s for me.

If there is a privatized mechanism used simply for “yes this person is an adult” then fine. But as of right now there is no such privatized mechanism in Canada.

Comparing publicly visible actions to private actions on a personal device that are easily hidden aren’t even close to viable analogies.

LOL!

It has been known for a long time that social media is harmful for kids. If parents wouldn’t parent properly for the good of their children before, then a toothless law (there would be no way to know children are using the sites) won’t make them parent now.

How would sites know there are children using the services? How would the authorities know to issue fines? The only way these things happen is with some form of ID system.

But how do you uphold a social media ban based on age without some form of age verification process?

No thank you on submitting my ID just for it to be leaked in some data breach down the line.

Yes, there is a difference, but one leads to the other. How do you think the bans will be enforced?
