Kids will be out there studying for their ham radio licenses to setup wireless long range packet networks and bbs's just to exchange porn lol

Gonna end up with a country-wide rogue WiFi mesh network setup that's fed from neighboring countries haha

I have so many questions about this too.. Commenting to come back later for the answer.

Argue enough and you can sometimes even get the full term back! I did! Really laid into them about their union busting and political donations.

Man, what sort of ~~sweatshop~~ industry is this so I can avoid it?

I've never looked at theirs, but I know it's not uncommon for large entities to have handles on big sites just to reserve the real estate so imposters/scammers/bad actors don't move in and take those names.

Their detergent and fabric softer is fantastic!

Was going to suggest this too. We use attitude for all our shower products and have been happy with them for years. +1 for their bulk refill boxes too! Also using them for all our cleaning supplies and laundry supplies too. We have a bulk refill station of their products in the laundry room haha

There's some Facebook 'buy Canadian' groups with over half a million people in - this server occasionally comes up there too when people are looking for Canadian hosted discussion sites to ditch big American tech like reddit or Facebook groups.

This type of business ownership is what I love about so many parts of Europe. The streets are all lined with shops owned by generations of people who live in the area and not by huge multi-national corps. The neighborhood supports the businesses, they help out the neighborhood, and it's a happy community. I wish we could have this here, but it's just a capitalist hellhole.

IMO all government at every level should be mandated to support local and/or Canadian first when possible. I don't why an entity that serves the people can't also be directly supporting those they serve instead of putting that money into other countries - just seems backasswards to me.

On the domain side, I use Canspace. They've always been the cheapest around for .ca domains too which is an added bonus. Been with them probably just under a decade and super happy with the services. Just using for personal use stuff.
