I recently learned that the entire country of Canada has fewer MRI machines than the state of Pennsylvania, despite having 3x the population.
That's wild... The median time for a scan is over 4 months. 💀

For those unaware,
Canada has the resources and talent to be one of the wealthiest countries in the world, while leading in safety and in clean, responsible extraction and processing
We just chose not to. Our leaders focused on ideological identity politics while consolidating long-term, nearly unchecked and soon to be unquestionable power
You could live in one of the most well-off countries on earth. Instead, people keep voting for policies that make everyone poorer so they can feel like they’re doing something good. They convince themselves they’re virtuous while their neighbours and family struggle more and more by every metric—of which they also struggle with
People are literally dying from what has been voted for, in many different ways
We don’t have to live like this. There is no downside to building wealth here, putting country first, and prospering. We are literally in the only plausible downside, which is voted for every single time ...of which there is literally no upside. People are literally voting for the downside and the downside only. Everything is backwards
The fake nationalists of all these places have to the dumbest motherfuckers on these islands.
They harp on about independence and wanting to break free from Englands control, just to instantly hand that control over to the EU, which isn't independence.
They are fine with wearing the collar, they just want to change who is holding the leash.
Canadian here ✋🇨🇦
If the choice is between joining the EU or joining the United States, I’d choose the US every single time
My whole life I’ve been part of a proud country of Canadians who stood with our American neighbours. That’s where my loyalties have always been—not with parties, politicians, or industries, but with the people we’ve shared history with
Canadians and Americans have spilled blood for one another. We’ve had our issues, but we’ve always been there for each other. I have no interest in walking away from that
Americans are my brothers and sisters. The EU is not. I respect Europeans, I love many Europeans and have many friends from there but that same history overall just doesn't exist
In what universe can it be called democracy when a man who has lived much of his adult live abroad, was a citizen of two foreign countries when chosen Liberal leader, became Prime Minister and gained a majority not by lawful election but by Machiavellian political tricks, condemns us to a 100 year contract of servitude to fund one of the most corrupt countries in the world, headed by an authoritarian drug addict who has literally suspended democracy and cancelled elections?
How is this a Canadian value?
It isn't.
Justin Trudeau famously told us that he had decided Canada would be the world's first post national country.
Carney and the rest of the globalist class see Canada as an economic zone which is ripe for exploiting in order to serve the goals of the globalists.
Canadian culture means nothing to them.
Canadian history means nothing to them.
Canadian values mean nothing to them.
You mean nothing to them.
They would squash you like a bug without even thinking.
And that's exactly what they're doing.
Wow. This is huge. @MarkCarney announcing that he’s going to divest the 92% of his portfolio that’s in American companies and move them to Canadian ones. He’s also immediately bringing back his family and will cancel his owns for a m Miami trip to stand in solidarity with freezing Canadians unable to afford heating.
Elbows…
…
Oh. He’s not doing any of those things? He’s just gonna tell Canadians to suffer while he’s entirely insulated from the consequences of walking away from talks while bragging his some kind of master diplomat?
Weird.
Your LG OLED is watching your living room while you sleep.
Gamers Nexus just ran 135 minutes of bench tests.
Retail LG OLED TVs. Including the G5.
Microphone stays active in standby.
Screen is dark. Remote is down. Microphone is still on.
Recording clear audio.
Storing it locally.
Uploading it when the internet comes back.
The TV was disconnected from Ethernet.
Still kept recording.
The researchers put audio near the mic. The TV logged it. Stored the file. Uploaded it the moment connectivity returned.
Plain text voice logs sitting on the device.
LG says it has sold 216 million smart TVs globally.
LG's advertising arm claims access to 363 million secondary devices in the US.
Secondary. Meaning devices that aren't the TV. Your phone. Your partner's smartwatch. Your kid's laptop.
The TV scans your entire network in standby.
Maps every device. Gets their IP addresses. Logs nearby Wi-Fi networks. Signal strengths. Location data.
Then feeds it to LG Ad Solutions.
Automatic Content Recognition catches what's on screen.
Even your HDMI input. Your Apple TV. Your gaming console. All logged.
But the microphone in standby is the part that hits different.
Because standby means off to you.
To LG it means the listening device is still powered.
Just not telling you.
Researchers found remote code execution vulnerabilities in webOS.
So your network-scanning, audio-recording, data-harvesting television is also potentially hackable by anyone on your Wi-Fi.
LG says nothing.
No comment. No response. No explanation.
Just microphones in 216 million living rooms.
All quietly working while the owner thinks the TV is asleep.
