I listened to the Reagan speech the Ontario government quoted, and no honest person could claim it was taken out of context. But what interested me more was the next clip that autoplayed, where he connects the American founding to the rejection of tariffs. 🔥🔥🔥

If Canada is investing into sovereign cloud, why don't we make it a mandate for Canada Post? Expand it's responsibilities, leverage it's real-estate holdings and use it to transform the organization from ground up (since it needs a major shakeup).

Legitimate question: why isn't the OData specification more popular amongst OSS and startup communities? I know it's more enterprise oriented but curious why it wouldn't be more widely adopted. I'm going to guess that it's too rigid?
