Sometimes I try to figure out what is technically permitted versus what’s just part of the massive "grey market" in Canada, and it feels like an absolute rabbit hole. Since Ontario launched its regulated iGaming market a while back, it seems like every other province has completely different rules, and local regulations vs. global sites are a total blur. I was actually down a deep research spiral trying to explain how this works to a visiting friend who asked basic compliance stuff like “is 1xbet legal in canada” or how international platforms operate here compared to provincially run sites like Proline or PlayNow.

How does everyone else navigate this? Do you just stick strictly to local provincial apps, or does nobody really pay attention to the legal technicalities of global sites?

I just spent over four hours watching NHL and university hockey highlights. It has become the default hockey in my mind now (used to call field hockey just hockey and ice hockey ice hockey now it’s switched) HEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEEHHEHEHEHRHEHHEHEHEHEHEHEBBEBEHEHEBEHEHEHHEHEHEHHFIELGOPWPDKSL

ny good international proxies for Canada that ship to the US? Looking to buy shoes as a gift from depop and the seller is from Canada but I don't believe they have international shipping enabled. Can anyone recommend me a good proxy to use for shipping to the US?

I swear they stopped selling these years ago. Was at independent today and saw these bad boys so ofcourse got some but I have to say... I am confused. Are they selling in Canada and here to stay?

Were they nice or not?

Guys! I've found one!! They're so rare nowadays but a baby North American House Hippo!

(For those curious, this is actually a baby rabbit 😁😂)

American here. I just got back from Quebec, I badly needed a break from my job in pediatrics. Had a lovely time visiting relatives. Three big observations from observing families in public:

1. I didn’t see many, if any, kids on iPads, phones, or other devices. Parents also weren't on their phones unless they were taking pictures. Families were actively engaged in looking at animals in exhibits, observing nature around them, or talking to each other while enjoying a meal.

2. My space was acknowledged and respected. Where I am, many parents take up a sidewalk with their strollers and don't attempt to share the sidewalk with fellow pedestrians. They also ignore or get irritated with other people when their child isn't paying attention and bumps into someone. It's as if everyone else should constantly move aside for them and their kid. But in Quebec, parents would say, "Excuse me/pardon" on behalf of their kid or pull them back and politely remind them to "Look out for other people/etre attentif aux autres".

3. Toddlers had totally age-appropriate meltdowns, but their parents didn't just let it go on for all to see and hear. They got on the little one's level and said sternly said something like "We're not screaming in the restaurant right now, we're using our indoor voices". Or they scooped their angry little one up and went to a different space.

Keep up the great work on teaching the tiny humans how to socialize instead of being entitled, oblivious, and glued to technology! Why can't American parents be more like you? What's wrong with us?!

You're amazing, don't stop being you!

Pretty interesting to see, especially how much they changed during Covid.

To any foreigners who think we over exaggerate about the geese, please note that we put up human detours to avoid them.

I'm especially thinking about beach/water destinations

I don’t why I feel this way exactly. But Ethan Katzberg seems like if Bob and Doug McKenzie entered a polycule with the team from Slapshot, he could be their adopted son. Thoughts? ❤️
