  • As shocking as it may be, Musk blocked Russia’s access to Starlink. Crazy, ik. Who knew the guy would help out Ukraine?

    Two days later, SpaceX CEO and owner of X, Elon Musk, replied on his social network: “Looks like the steps we took to stop the unauthorized use of Starlink by Russia have worked.” Starlink has found a way to disable any terminal moving at a speed greater than 90 km/h on Ukrainian territory. This measure is reportedly already effective against Russian drones, but also – as an unintended consequence – against Ukrainian vehicles equipped with mobile Starlink terminals.






































  • Tbf the only reason the PCs support abortion is because of our Supreme Court struck down the laws that criminalized it.

    In 1988, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled in R. v. Morgentaler that the existing law was unconstitutional, and struck down the 1969 Act. The ruling found that the 1969 abortion law violated a woman’s right to “life, liberty and security of the person” guaranteed under Section 7 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms established in 1982.

    Former PM Stephen Harper then put the last nail in the coffin when he announced the federal PCs would not challenge the ruling. This is because although abortion is considered legal here there is no law on the books that makes it so. If the PCs were to challenge the SCoC’s ruling they would likely force the feds to make a law the enshrined abortion care as legal.
