But made to flee their homes as refugees in middle though.

Don't you dare say that the emperor is nude. You will be shown the guillotine.

> The oil belongs to the people of Iraq.

So they will soon be rich like the Saudis in the near future ?

You are kidding right ? This is what your medias are telling you ? Do you know what lead to the refugee crisis and other IS* organizations in the middle east ? The Banana Republics in South America ?

Why is Saudi a saint while other nations in middle east are bad actors ?

The rhetoric on China sounds like sour grapes to me.

I wonder why you aren't down voted for crying out loud that the emperor's nude. I try to see the multiple facets of a story rather than trusting medias be it wester or eastern. How many will bother to see what CNN, RT, BBC, AlJazeera and the likes of it are saying about the same story ?

When China invests in Africa, why is it a bad thing when many countries in Africa are suffering from Françafrique ?

> The drivers, who followed Sikh traditions by wrapping their uncut hair in turbans, said bosses asked them to remove the turbans.

Ironically, Quebec has made it a law now.

2 "White washing" laws.

1. Immigration law helps in cherry picking white européan immigrants who fits Québec culture, values & French.

2. Religious law deters non white immigrants who are majorly non Christians.

Why is there a market for shark fins in Canada to begin with ?

I do hope all those developing countries with a democratic government will ban this one.

Yes something similar to OOQLF (https://www.oqlf.gouv.qc.ca/accueil.aspx). Specifics of enforcement are not clear at this point though.

> The government also added a number of last-minute amendments to the bill, including changes that would allow for surveillance and enforcement of the law.

> Quebec's majority government has pushed through a controversial piece of legislation that will bar public-school teachers, government lawyers, judges and police officers from wearing religious symbols while at work.

This legislation has invoked the "not withstanding clause" which means this legislation cannot be challenged in any court.

> Quebec hasn't banned anything. Politicians just proposed a bill and will likely face steep opposition since this sort of thing has happened before.

The bill is passed on June 16, 2019 (yesterday).

> The Coaliton Avenir Québec government wants to pass a bill today that will bar public-school teachers, government lawyers, judges and police officers from wearing religious symbols while at work.

> The bill also invokes the notwithstanding clause in an effort to spare it from court challenges about its constitutionality.

All those made in China apps have a hard time penetrating non Chineese markets. But they could if they want to, like TikTok which is popular in India too.

It is relevant. To answer your question, the app could use a developer with more humility towards users.

All I was saying is if he calls trial users "free riders eating resources" on a tech site which we all understand the verbiage and where this comes from.

How will he treat paying customers ? I smell double standards. That's all I am saying.

An internet summarizes and makes a well informed conclusion :-

Which is, I probably don't pay for things and felt hurt when I saw "yet another paid note taking app" amongst dozen others on the internet.

It sounds right from a tech speak. But the question remains if he will treat the paid customers with this same attitude.

What do you think his user conversion will be if he uses "Free rider who eats resources" verbiage in his pricing page as opposed to "free"

Why don't he use the same verbiage in his pricing page and do an A/B test ? The results will prove if his verbiage is appropriate.

Is it just me that thinks whenever a western media writes an article about India, they show an image of India in the worst possible way.

For ex: Why does this article have to show a picture of a political rally ?

> free riders will come eat the server resources

that's not the way to address a user whether paid or "free rider" as you call them.

Yeah totally, from the moment when they realize I am from India, they say they watch bollywood in Netflix to which I say "I do not speak much Hindi and I seldom watch bollywood movies"

They must be thinking i'm pulling their leg.

Put them where ?

Are you saying Canadian universities operate like airlines ? (overbook & bump)

Can those employees progress in their career without speaking the native language ?

Will the kids get an education in English ?

Can the immigrant take part in social activities ?

Can they talk to their doctors or to the grocery store in English without misunderstanding.

How is the attitude towards English ? Will a nationalist government change those English friendliness ?

There are things like these a skilled economic immigrant should consider before immigrating to a non English speaking country.

Take the example of Québec, although it's a province in the English speaking Canada, immigrants who speak only English are not welcomed and frowned upon. They find it hard to get by. They end up moving to other provinces. If the immigrant is not white, the difficulties are 2x in Québec. To be fair, Québec's hate for English is well founded if you examine their colonial history and hence the strict language laws.

Québec is an exception to this. Québec do not follow the Express Entry system. Québec has its own immigration system called Québec Skilled Worker Programme which is currently dysfunctional, plagued with delays. Québec gives more importance to knowing French rather than any other skills in selecting immigrants. As a result, Quebec has a pool of unemployable but French speaking immigrants.

Canada is an English speaking country except Québec. Why would a highly skilled immigrant learn yet another language to immigrate to Netherlands, if given a choice between an English speaking country and non English one ?

You must be one of the following ?

1.You have an outstanding student loan which you are paying off with a non US salary.

2. You were on a scholarship.

3. Rich.

I agree & I immigrated to Canada within an year of graduation and is now a permanent resident of Canada. US H1B & OPT is BS.

Students from India and China should tread carefully. All this trouble and high tuition fees will land you in financial & immigration trouble.

Tangential anecdata:- I know H1B workers who paid a "monthly % of their salary" to their Indian managers for bringing/sending them to the US on an H1B visa.

> One autorick-shaw driver was pulled over by a policeman in the middle of the night who said he could go if he was "taken care of". The driver gave him the note instead. The policeman was shocked but smiled and let him go.

Too good to be true.

On another note, what people usually do (when they are asked a bribe) is to notify the vigilance officer. The vigilance department provides marked original currency notes powdered with Phenolphthalein. Once the official accepts the bribe, the vigilance enters the office and arrests the official who took the bribe red handed (literally). But there are ways to circumvent this by depositing the bribe indirectly to the guy(proxy) who sells tea outside the govt. office from whom the govt official later collects it from.
