First it was Bitmex, then Kraken, now Huobi won't even give me the time of day.
They all threaten to liquidate all of my assets that I trust them with if I so much as touch a computer screen from inside this frozen wasteland.
I tried setting up a corporation in the UK and registering that with Bitmex, but they not only asked for the corporation details but the details of all of the directors... of which none of whom can be resident in or so much as visiting Ontario, Canada.
Fuck me, right?!
Do I seriously have to move to another country to keep doing this or what?
Hi, my name is Andrey and I am a digital marketer with 5 years of experience. I can manage budgets from 100 thousand dollars a month and cannot get offers from Canadian employers. Why is this so?)

Hello! I am (obviously) Canadian, i have depended upon our healthcare system for my entire life, but have no experience with the US healthcare system outside of anecdotes and my own (amateur-ish) research. I currently hold the belief that Universal HC results in better overall healthcare outcomes than privatized care, and that it's more affordable. I accept that there are some trade-offs in a universal system (increased wait times for simple/less life-threatening procedures), but i think those are vastly outweighed by the pros. If you have a reason why privatized healthcare is objectively better, let me know! I would be glad to hear you out :)
Edit: An interesting point has been brought up, and I feel like i have to refine my view: I believe that single payer healthcare is an objectively superior solution compared to solutions with multiple providers, and that privatization in healthcare increases cost while not increasing positive healthcare outcomes.
I got to experience the guy riding on his bike selling balut in the middle of the night. I rode in a jeepney, I walked the streets and I knew some of the language so I was actually able to communicate to people. I saw how kids have no shoes, when I went into 7-11 there were 15 kids standing outside just asking for a few pesos. I attended church there, and it rained and the streets were flooded and even some kids swam across to try to sell things.
As a Canadian, I have never witnessed anything like that before. I was never well off, I saw homeless people but I never witnessed extreme poverty until I went there. And yet you are all still very happy and strong for eachother and your families.
You are the strongest community I have ever witnessed and honestly, Mahal kita. I love all of you. I hope to come back to your country one day.
Edit: I would like to apologize to everyone who was offended. I honestly didn't mean this post in a bad way. When I was creating it, I was thinking about how so many people complain here when really they have no idea what other people go through.
Edit #2: Honestly, I'm not some Instagram, YouTuber asshole who posts shit for attention. I didn't say what I said and see what I saw so I can go to some Canadian idiots and say "Yeah hey bro guess what I saw, you think your shit is bad guess what" Fuck that. I love your country, I love jollibee, I loving watching Showtime and I love your culture. Last edit. Think what you will of me.
Everywhere I go, either for groceries or just walking everyone is respecting boundaries, that I've seen. Sure we may have some bad apples but I haven't met them. I was in at my local LCBO earlier and thanked the cashier for being at work, and he seemed so genuinely happy to hear me thank him. We both agreed that times are hard now but we have to stay positive. The security guard at the front of the store managing people was cracking jokes and keeping a respectful distance. You know that feeling when you go to a bar and have to deal with a hard ass bouncer? I didn't feel that, he was kind and informative. Every few minutes he reminded us to be patient and to give other customers space. I never felt intimidated. I didn't wait that long in line, and hell if anything lining up outside doesn't matter, we'd be lining up inside just as long. So yeah, keep up the good fight my people, I'm moving out of town for a bit but when I come back if you guys are half as awesome as you've been I'll still feel at home.
Any Canadian here?
Canada made it snow 3ft so we’d stay inside and safe from the virus.
What would you like to see? Yang's face on someone? Yang doing something cool? Whatever. Give me your ideas, and I'll try and make some of them a reality.
