A new class-action lawsuit against the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) could give extra cash to some Canadians. Todd Sweet has initiated the lawsuit against the CRA and the Government of Canada, alleging that they were "negligent in safeguarding the confidential information of Canadians, leading to widespread privacy breaches." In the class-action lawsuit, Sweet claims that "inadequate safeguards" within several online government portals "allowed bad actors" to access the online accounts of Canadians without their consent. He also alleges that, in many cases, these bad actors used real accounts to apply for the Canada Emergency Response Benefit (CERB).

• ulysses is not the name he was born with; he named himself after ulysses s. grant
• he's from the twisted hairs, a tribe that was forcibly assimilated into the legion after vulpes inculta "pacified" them at dry wells. their history and culture were erased, and some of their people were crucified along interstate 40. the rest were broken, brainwashed, and absorbed into the legion
• he rose through the ranks of the meritocratic legion slave army, becoming a frumentarius who worked as an undercover courier for caesar
• he was one of the scouts who scouted the hoover dam for the legion
• he was walking the wastes when he found the community that would become the divide; there, he found a potential home. until courier six came and delivered a package that blew it all up
• in the wreckage of his potential new home, ulysses was saved by medical eyebots who saw the flag on his back and recognized it
• he was sent by caesar to become an emissary to the white legs, who tried to honor him by mirroring his hair, which, unbeknown to them, was personal to him, because woven in the braids was ulysses' and his tribe's histories
• he left the white legs shortly after they showed him their new hair, fashioned after him - it felt like a hollow mockery of his dead tribe
• he defected from the legion after the battle at new canaan, becoming a bighorner herder at wolfhorn ranch and working and roaming he wastes as a courier
• he found the big mt by tracking irregular weather patterns, and there he found father elijah and christine royce
• he directed father elijah to the sierra madre, knowing elijah would find his death there
• he rescued christine and nursed her back to help in a cave, learning about the brotherhood of steel from her. she gave him a recorder, which he used to create the logs that courier six would find along the divide
• he spoke with the think tank asked them one question - "who are you, that do not know your history?" - and this shook them, made them remember the old world. they told him about the missiles under the divide
• he went back to couriering, finding out that courier six was still alive from johnson nash - he was supposed to deliver the platinum chip but somehow knew it would be trouble, so he passed it on to courier six, hoping that the job would kill them
• but discovering that courier six, the person that destroyed his new home, the person that he has been obsessing over for years, was still alive, awoke his desire for revenge against them
• he made a plan to teach courier six a lesson about history - his, and theirs, together - and accountability, and how one person can make such a huge impact on the world, even unwittingly
• he lured courier six to the divide, to see what they had wrought, and what he has planned
• his plan: aim missiles at dry wells and the long 15, two strategic locations that would cut the throats of both the legion and the ncr. whether they launch would be up to the courier after their confrontation
• he does not want to nuke the world and kill millions. only two locations that would weaken both warring armies. again, the decision to nuke these locations is up to courier six

Weather that drove eastern Canada's devastating wildfires made twice as likely by climate change | CNN

The weather conditions that fueled record-shattering wildfires in eastern Canada earlier this summer – and sent plumes of hazardous air into the US – were made more likely and more intense by the climate crisis, according to a new report published Tuesday.

Scientists from the World Weather Attribution initiative – which calculates the role of climate change in extreme weather events – found human-caused climate change more than doubled the likelihood of hot, dry and windy conditions that drove the Quebec fires between May and July, and made this fire-prone weather at least 20% more intense.

The severity of Quebec’s fire season up to the end of July was also made 50% more intense by climate change, according to the report.
