“I’m a Canadian.

We’re a quiet bunch; prone to enjoying hockey, drinking stronger beer than our friends south of the border, and lovers of fries smothered in cheese curds and gravy.

We also, apparently, have an inferiority complex when it comes to being evil dirt bags, because we’ve decided to pass our very own version of SOPA up here.

Only better*

Meet Bill-C11. Formerly Bill C-32. (I think they thought if they made the number lower people would care less about it?)

{…}

But, as innocuous as it sounds, C-11 does a whole lot that SOPA did with a few extra twists you might not find in the Wikipedia write-up.

Like your PVR? You can’t keep it under C-11.

Like ripping CDs to your iPod? Say bye-bye.

Hey, do you want to be able to unlock your $500 smartphone and take it to a provider less dedicated to violating your wallet? That won’t be allowed either.

Did you get accused of internet piracy but no evidence has been presented and a trial date hasn’t even been set? Under C-11 your ISP will now be forced to terminate your internet access.

And people say that governments can’t be bought.

There are only 14 days left people. Get active.”

Come on non-Canadian people, please signal boost this for your Canadian friends.

I find it irritating that “we” cared so much about SOPA, but are so apathetic to stop something from happening in our own country. Get off your duff, Canada!

I just want the government to stop trying to ruin the Internet.

Ever see an 80-Carat diamond before? Now you have.

Well… how about a 3,106-carat diamond? On this day in 1905, the largest diamond (ever), a 3,106 carat diamond was found at the Premier Mine in Pretoria, South Africa.

These may not be quite as large — but diamonds are a girls best friend, right? Here, feast your eyes on some more very large and beautiful diamonds…

I’m Eatin’ Too Much Of It of the Day: 17-year-old Stacey Irvine of Castle Vale, Birmingham, has admitted to eating practically nothing besides chicken nuggets since she was two.

Irvine was recently rushed to the hospital after collapsing at work. Doctors there told her she had anemia and made it clear that she was going to die if she didn’t immediately add fruits and vegetables to her diet. “I am starting to realise this is really bad for me,” Irvine acknowledged.

Still, she says she can’t stop eating nuggets on a daily basis. “McDonald’s chicken nuggets are my favourite. I share 20 with my boyfriend with chips,” she is quoted as saying. “But I also like KFC and supermarket brands. My main meal is always chicken nuggets every day.”

According to Irvine, her mother Evonne, who introduced her to McNuggets when she was two, has long since given up trying to get her to eat anything else. “I’m at my wit’s end,” says Evonne, a 39-year-old beauty therapist. “I’m praying she can be helped before it’s too late.”
