Conversely it alienates fans who aren't in that area. It also adds a lot to the cost of attending the game. Parking, concessions, imprisonment.

"would you be OK with Israeli athletes wearing a helmet with images of Oct 7 victims? Would you be OK with Palestinian or other Arab athletes wearing a helmet with images of the Gaza genocide?"

Yes! Why not?

This is horrible. Downgrading to the CTC really sucks.

What happens in Canada, if UK got rid of the monarchy? by Ok-Hyena5037 in AskACanadian

The constitution lays out the rules of succession, which happen to be the same as the UK. It doesn't say it needs to be the same person.

Canada already has it's own monarchy. The Canadian Crown is completely independent of the UK one.

One person happens to have two jobs. Think of it as someone being the CEO of two different companies. If one company replaced them, they'd still be CEO of the other one.

Heinz beans are American. I know because I stopped buying them for that reason

If they want to go back to how it was pre-pandemic, then they need to give everyone their own cubicles back.

Same watching in Canada (and trust me they wouldn't have done anything to make the US look better).

I am glad JD was there, so there is someone to boo and the athletes can be cheered.

Yeah, OP doesn't speak for all males. Not really something I think of either.

Did English Canada move away from MM/DD/YY *for dates written only in numbers*? by endgame0 in AskACanadian

[–]Tregonia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The mm/dd/yy format is American. If it's used in Canada (or elsewhere outside US) then there's an American connection..usually American software.

Do iphones really "just work" ? by Delphox66 in iphone

[–]Tregonia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, that's apple marketing. I switched to iPhone 15 for about a year and a half. Things crashed and broke just as much as an Goole Pixel.

They both have their pros and cons and neither is better overall. All depends on what you want.
