Canada is currently about to start a federal election campaign. If as current polls suggest the current government falls and a conservative government takes over this bill will die a very swift death.

So Canada doesn't have any of these tariffs, but somehow I have a feeling we'll be paying them anyways but the money just goes to greedy companies and not the government. Yay, Canada!

Hoping for true gigabit networking and USB 3.0.

It's now illegal to sell a locked cellphone. Funny how as Canada moves one way the US seems to be moving the other.

Can I go with fewer packs for my everyday driving, but if I'm going on a road trip "rent" a few extra packs for the added range?

The worst part of this is all that tax money is going to go to Ireland which accounts for next to none of Apple's sales. The only winners in this are the Irish people (over $3000 per Irish citizen), everyone else loses.

If I said to someone. I'll give you $100 to drive as fast as possible, they did and killed someone then I could be held criminally responsible. How is this any different?

I hate frivolous lawsuits too... but this isn't one. Do they not have anyone vet ideas before they implement them? Anyone with common sense would agree that an app that encourages the reckless breaking of laws is a terrible idea.

This is probably a great thing for lesbian couples trying to conceive. No more going to sperm bank and picking out some random stranger to be the father of your kids. Now just make sperm from your partners stem cells.

Maybe next time they'll invest a bit more in security before hand.

So i guess that means here in Canada we have a zero strike scheme. You get caught once and they can take you to court right away.

I use teamview on all my computer. It's free for non comercial use and works GREAT.

Yes but don't forget, Canada is VERY sparely populated http://www12.statcan.ca/census-recensement/2006/as-sa/97-550/vignettes/m1-eng.htm Canadian ISP's don't provide service to anywhere with less that 10 people/km^2. So really that argument is rather moot.

I know bell advertises "up to" 7 mbps but the technology only goes up to 6 mbps.
