This happened to my friends. They bought tickets, the flight got cancelled, they never got informed, they continued to get regular flight reminders, including a week before the "flight" and a reminder the night before to check in. They chose not to check in online, went to the airport, and were told at the check in desk that the flight didn't exist. Not just the flight, the route. The route they were flying no longer existed, and they still got notifications. Ridiculous.

Oh, and the kicker... they got emails afterwards asking them to rate the flight!

Agreed, but also eye-witness testimony is notoriously inaccurate.

PP trying to frame income/property-value disparity as a purely Canadian problem that has only happened under Trudeau is just pure fallacy. It's happening in countries all over the world and it has been growing under every government in Canada for decades.

Usenet requires paying for a service though, right?

The confirmation on exit (back button when on the main screen) is why I stayed with this instead of the other apps I've tried!

But agreed, having something like that as an option makes sense.

Canada in general made me happier. Not necessarily the companies specifically. As much as we can complain about our health care issue here in Canada, the social safety net here is significantly better. And I had "good" insurance coverage in the states. It was a constant fear of getting sick or injured and ending up in the wrong hospital and not getting covered (or any number of other reasons). Add to that the social pressure to spend money on everything in the states. Everyone I knew down there was in debt up to their eyeballs, no matter how much they made. It was ridiculous.

Yes, but, money isn't everything. I once left a high paying job in the US to come back to Canada, get paid less, and be way happier.

Working for a US company and living in Canada is a good way to go, but is harder to swing if you are not a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.

Plus it sounds like the people they're talking about in this scenario may have their H1-B revoked and they wouldn't have a job or a visa to stay in the US at all. Canada, even with a lower paying job seems like a good option.

My guess is someone at the credit card company screwed up. May have even been someone new.

My thoughts are that the title should be relevant.

My "Subscribed" "Hot" currently has 3 items from today and then gets into stuff from months ago.

Seems completely broken to me.
