Chiropractors don’t actually help with back pain or any of the other problems they claims to help. The practice is based on “re-aligning” subtle subluxations in the spine. Two problems: there is no evidence that these subtle subluxations exist, and there is no evidence that spine alignment even extreme ones cause any ailments other than pinched nerves. Here is a good summary about the history of this pseudo-science:

Taking away jobs makes people mad. 17% of Canada’s economy is natural resource extraction: mining, logging, hydrocarbons. Greater than 200,000 Canadians are employed by the logging sector [1].
The rules for faxes are pretty strange in Alberta, Canada. The main security measure seems to be adding a cover letter as the first page. Meanwhile, personal health information in emails is a big no-no.
Battery life and increased battery life are almost always a feature that is marketed by laptop manufacturers. On the Macbook Pro one of the key features being marketed is "up to 10 hours of battery life". I guess you may mean that making it thinner increases the "sleek look" and visual appeal?
I agree that Uber has resulted in more competition from local competitors which is great, but this information about Uber pricing is not correct. Uber prices have gone down overall since the regulatory changes were made to allow Uber and other "ride shares" in Edmonton and put in place insurance requirements. The base cost per trip has gone up but the per distance and per time cost has gone down. Before the regulatory change my trip home from work averaged ~ $10. Example: Base fare: $2.75, Distance: $3.56, Time: $2.32, Safe ride fee: $1.00, Total: $9.63 After the change my trips average the same. Example: Base fair: $2.25, distance $3.46, time: $1.58, booking fee: $2.15, per trip fee (for insurance): $0.06. The total base cost before was $3.75 and after is $4.46, but the per minute and per km costs have gone down. So very short trips cost more than before, but long trips cost less than before. The regulatory change resulted in a cost of $0.06 per trip for insurance.
They do have automatic recurring billing for the Public Cloud servers now, but on the dedicated servers it is still the old payment system for some reason.
Most reefs rely on photosynthesis via a symbiotic relationship with cyanobacteria to get energy, but the water here is too cloudy. Instead many of the sponges in this reef rely on a symbiotic relationship with chemosynthetic microbes. Pretty cool!
