In my never-ending quest to bring 'fearless,' water-surface breaking journalism to the people of the #Outaouais, I went to @GCB_Bungee to jump off a 200ft-high tower-crane.
Sound on and volume up.
ME 5 should to be referred to the Major Projects Office.
A purported BioWare developer has leaked a trailer for the cancelled ME 5 on Reddit.
The footage, reportedly titled "MASS EFFECT UNIVERSE," appears to suggest the project was further along in development.
Its authenticity remains unverified.

This may be the most significant data breach in Canadian history. Not in terms of the numbers, but in terms of the nature of the records compromised. "More than 1.5 million Canadian Crime Stoppers tips leaked" cbc.ca/news/investigates/can…

In this installment, I've focused the analysis to Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s surge to top-performing fundraiser since late 2022, and Prime Minister Mark Carney's team of top-performing ministers and ridings helping him reinvigorate the party’s war chest since the last election.

If you're wondering who is behind those Jagmeet Singh duffel bag ads on here, know that it's part of a multi-billion dollar scam empire being run out of Eastern European call centers. It's an absolutely massive problem and Canada is a priority target.

This is what we’re up against trying to report on the CFB Wainwright tragedy.
On October 18, I asked Environment Canada for the original wind-warning bulletins for the region, to make sure I hadn’t missed any and because several had since been archived online.
I also asked for the timestamped XML files — or directions on how to access them myself.
I wasn’t asking about the fire. I wasn’t asking for anything new. I was trying to retrieve historical weather warnings and records, most of which were already publicly available.
This was their response.
It took them two full working days to send this.
