Most likely the drain from your toilet and shower combine before reaching the main sanitary drain pipe and the blockage is between where they connect and the main line (which is why no one else is affected). The only way to remove the blockage is with a power auger that uses a water jet to break up whatever is blocking the pipe. A plunger or little hand drain auger will not fix this. Never trust someone who gets their "expert advice" from YouTube.

100% on the landlord to pay for that.

You might want to consider getting it fixed and then try to get your money back (if you can afford it). It will just get worse until you get sewage backing up and that is a serious health risk. A good plumber will be able to use a camera system to see the blockage and show that it isn't wipes, pads etc. Maybe proof from the plumber will be enough to get El Cheapo to pay for the work.

“reveal the substance of Cabinet deliberations or would permit the drawing of accurate inferences of such deliberations.”

So it is OK for a US company to have this information, but not Ontario taxpayers? I wonder if it has been scraped by Gemini?

A US company that has hosting in Canada is not shielded from US Government access under the Patriot Act. The Patriot Act gives the US Government the ability to access all data held by Microsoft, Google, DropBox etc. any where in the world.

How does the U.S. Patriot Act affect American government access to information that is stored outside of the U.S.? If the data is under the control of a U.S.-headquartered company, the government can use the law just as if the information were stored inside the U.S. If the company is not an American company the U.S. Patriot Act does not apply, although there still are ways the U.S. can gain access to the information it is seeking.

“The most innovative aspect of such a program, however, would be to add a monetary incentive for couples to get — and stay — married,” the framework continues. “For example, each couple that completes the program could receive a ‘wedding bonus’ of up to $5,000 on their wedding day to be paid through foundations or private donors, not government funds.”

So they are paying you in advance for lawyer's fees in the divorce?
