A new Angus Reid Institute poll suggests a majority of Canadians believe First Nations should be meaningfully consulted on projects deemed in the national interest, but they're split on who should hold the deciding power.

Forty per cent of Canadians say the government and companies should retain final say, while 25 per cent say First Nations should have a veto if projects infringe on their lands.

I feel like this is an indication that 40% of Canadians haven't really thought this through.

"Federation Standard" is definitely just English - the people of New Eden spoke it, despite being moved to that planet during WWIII, well before the Federation was formed.

holy hell are spoilers so difficult to use on Lemmy

You're not wrong, but fortunately these threads are fair game for spoilers - no syntax needed.

I thought this one was a tonal mess - so much so that I was convinced the whole thing was going to turn out to be a training simulation or something.

This show is usually so good at setting a clear mood, but this one was so all over the place, I didn't know how seriously to take the situations the crew(s) found themselves in.

It hardly seems fair to compare them to robots.

He's with the Prophets now

you extremist

It's lashes all the way down.

It's the internet. There's going to be "backlash" regardless.

Though to be honest, people seem pretty high on SFA, both here an in other online spaces I visit.

I think there's a lot of potential in the concept, and the trailer looked great.

Either way, I'd much rather talk about the show than the people talking about the show.

This is barely Star Trek-related news, but we now have confirmation that the franchise will remain under CBS Studios (which is pretty much the only division that hasn't had a change in management under the new regime).

With that bit of business out of the way, the next step will be for them to make a decision on the renewal of the Secret Hideout deal, which is set to expire next year.
