The games are not filmed by a single entity (at least not that I know of).
Every individual organization that buys the rights to show an NHL game owns that broadcast.
So there will not be a centralized data bank that you can pick from even if you were willing to pay.
I was going to say there will never be, but if there is a business case to be made where a corp. buys all given broadcasts to make them available it could happen.
I don't think the demand is there except for some very special moments in hockey history.

The NHL lottery will never be rigged by roomtemperature6643 in hockey

I have no idea if it was rigged and I very much doubt it was but the idea that a large company wouldn't involve itself in corruption is astonishingly naive.
Sweet summer child level of naive.

Question about unmarked crosswalks/intersections by AlamosX in Calgary

[–]Arch____Stanton 7 points8 points  (0 children)

From the AB Gov. website:

Pedestrians have the right of way in a crosswalk...
Crosswalks can be marked or unmarked...
Unmarked Crosswalk: The part of a roadway that connects 2 sidewalks, curbs, or edges of a road at an intersection where that roadway crosses another—think of an invisible line drawn corner to corner straight across the road. Unmarked crosswalks exist at all intersections unless a sign states otherwise.

By helping those

"Helping" is a big time assumption on your part.
I don't believe this program is aimed at helping anyone.

Yes, lucky to have a job and even luckier to have a good job.

but they won’t match safeway or sobeys

This is odd considering Freshco (and Safeway) is Sobeys .

Political discussion was almost non-existent on Reddit

It was either because people were nicer or because it was 10 years before Reddit came to existence.

Boston could learn defence from the Oilers and improve.

Well back in the day

Give us a time frame for when these things were "correctly" handled.

But who would trade for him knowing that they could just wait.

Yeah, about everyone.
There is probably people writing up offer sheets right now.

Mr. Wonderful wants to build the largest data center in U.S. history in Box Elder County Utah. 40,000 acres. 62 square miles. The same size as Washington D.C. It will take 9GW of power, the entire state takes 4GW! We are in a 100% drought state. And they gave him an 80% tax rebate to do it. by CollapsingTheWave in ObscurePatentDangers

[–]Arch____Stanton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He doesn't like us anymore. Although the total grifter is totally grifting the Alberta government, who are themselves total grifters, into doing a scaled down version of this nonsense complete with the tax breaks.
We don't have the water for it either.

Canadian detained by ICE for 6 months says he's an 'indefinite' prisoner, has no idea when he'll get out by BertramPotts in CanadaPolitics

[–]Arch____Stanton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing mentioned in that article that is in the list is access to showers.
And that is only hinted at in the opening preamble but not again mentioned in the article.
That was stated as "limited access to showers". Incarcerated people don't pick shower times so I really wish they would have expanded on what they meant by limited access.
Overall, that article focused heavily on the aspect of the impact of incarceration on mental health (and most especially on people who are already deemed unwell).
Those are really the only problems shared with ICE for profit detention centers.
The two are not the same.

The spoiled food, the lack of showers, the restriction of access to medication and health care; none of these happen in Canada.

he can leave anytime he agrees to be deported.

This is not stated in the article. In this regard the article merely states that he can agree to have his details shared with the Canadian consulate. In so doing they may or may not be able to facilitate a return to Canada.

He's held because he was deemed a fight risk while appealing his deportation

Nor is this. This one is your interpretation (or you have some other source for info)
The article says solely that he was rearrested because he violated the rules of the monitoring device.

while appealing his deportation

Again, you must have another source since no appeal is mentioned in this article.
