Is keep getting wrong the same as lying?
Probably. But no journalistic outlet is going to call it "lying" without proof that the leaders don't sincerely believe what they're saying.
And that sort of proof is hard to get.

The video is 1 hour 14 minutes long.
Absolute madness.
Respect.
From what I'm seeing on Mastodon, there was some kind of altercation between Ezra Levant and other reporters...
If the premiere is on June 14, I guess my new guess for the full release is June 19?
- In early April 2025, a rumor began to spread that U.S. President Donald Trump had backed down on tariffs because Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney forced his hand by orchestrating a collective sale of U.S. bonds.
- It is true that Trump paused tariffs after the price of U.S. Treasurys began to drop at the same time as the price of U.S. stocks plummeted, an event known as a synchronized sell-off. In fact, after he announced the pause, Trump said, "bond markets are tricky."
- However, the claim that Carney had orchestrated the bond sell-off alongside the European Union and Japan was not confirmed. It came from the newsletter of Dean Blundell, a staunch supporter of Carney in Canada's next federal election and a former "shock jock."
- Snopes has contacted Blundell, asking him to explain how he came upon this story and to clarify some points from his allegations.
- Snopes also contacted Carney's office asking for confirmation of Blundell's claims. Lastly, we have reached out to several fixed income analysts to inquire about the plausibility of such a scheme.
Those requirements are designed to allow Quebec’s provincial party a seat at the table
Certainly, and I've already expressed how I feel about that. But I get it - they're able to leverage the electoral system to their advantage, and have in fact been the Official Opposition at times.
I certainly agree that it's very questionable to have an explicitly regional party in the federal debates, but for clarity's sake, the criteria are 2/3 of the following:
having at least one sitting MP who's been elected as a member of that party
having at least four per cent national support in opinion polls
running candidates in at least 90 per cent of all ridings
After pulling the candidates, the Green Party only meets one of these criteria (the first).
It comes up all the time in the wider Trek community, too - nothing will ever be as good as whatever was on TV when you were 14.
That is one of many Reddit communities that I just couldn't get into.
Semantics aside, I can't see how the RTD2 era is any different from the RTD1 era, other than them having more money to throw around.
It seems like a lot of people need to consider whether it's the show or themselves that has changed.
there was some debate as to whether the prime directive applied as the Baku weren’t native to the planet.
...which is an absolutely insane debate. No one tries to argue that the PD doesn't apply to the Romulans, even though they're not native to their world.
Colony planets aren't considered "fair game" for interference.
I'm standing in line at the polls right now, and all I can say is to be prepared for long lines.
