This needs a "reticulating splines" step.

We can all agree that it's a tragedy that this animal died.

The other consideration is that polar bears are amongst the most relentless and vicious predators around. A polar bear around an inhabited area is very much a serious safety threat. Iceland doesn't have any animal predators and therefore also wouldn't have the trained people or equipment necessary to deal with neutralizing and relocating this bear.

I would have liked to have seen the animal safely moved. But I suspect there's more context to this story that we don't have beyond the headline.

I'd like to hear him deliver a detailed analysis of how sky rocketing food prices has no bearing on Loblaws record setting corporate profits.

Do you end up on a no-fly list from doing something like this?
Because it was a flight from Richmond to Toronto. The person likely lives in one of those two places and was released in Winnipeg. Are they now faced with the only option of bus/train/car to get home?
Then, similarly, have to do that again to get back to Winnipeg for their court date?

I hope they can't fly, because that would be some sweet consequences.

You're not wrong, that is a thing. Source: me, a man with nipple piercings.

It's more obvious with solid colours and less obvious with a pattern.
The thicker or stiffer the fabric, the less the fabric will contour.

Seems like something you just have to own.
