It's definitely an interesting conversation to have, and I think you raise some excellent points on whether it's the most effective use of the PMs time to be in the House. I think one big drawback if they aren't is that the opposition would be able to speak about the PM without the PM being able to directly respond but a) that doesn't matter much if the party has a majority, b) it's possible this wouldn't be as big of an issue over time if we had multiple PMs not in the House as it's possible the opposition would start focusing on the leader in the house (such as deputy PM), c) it also wouldn't be entirely unprecedented as the PM isn't always in attendance, even if they are allowed to.

He absolutely could remain PM without being an MP but I believe he then wouldn't be allowed to actually sit or speak in the House which is obviously not ideal.
I haven't done enough research to confidently answer your second question but for your first one:
That is the official website of the House of Commons of Canada. The process varies a bit between paper petitions and e-petitions but essentially, once the petition is certified (has enough signatures (25 for paper petitions, 500 for e-petitions), is formatted properly, and an MP is willing to present it) it will then be presented in the House by the MP associated with the petition and the government then has 45 days to respond to the content, if they fail to respond within 45 days, the MP who presented the petition can designate a committee of the house to look into why the government failed to respond.
So it doesn't force the government to enact the content of the petition, but it forces the issue to be brought up in the House and forces the government to respond.

I have a feeling they're referring to SteamDB plus Augmented Steam.
What's the best way to let you know if we're having issues after the maintenance windows? Any on a different platform if we have issues accessing Lemmy?
Thanks for all the hard work!!
Not sure if these are available near you but you might be able to find some steam wallet cards in stores that sell giftcards. You'd then be able to add funds to steam without using a credit card.
Started playing Spiritfarer and UFO50 in the last couple weeks and will likely play them into the beginning of 2025.
FYI the link in your comment got cut off before the last bracket so it's not linking to the wiki page directly.
By saying that I didn't realize it was different in Europe. Often when we (Canada) do something different than the US, it's because it's closer to how it's done in Europe and I assumed this was one of those cases.
I'm planning on looking into this more when I have some free time as I'd like to understand where our approach to both documents came from.
Maybe things are different here in Canada but that's how I've always had it outlined. What you're describing would be called a resume here and not a CV. The intents of the two documents are not the same.
Most CVs that I've seen are usually closer to 3-5 pages but I've seen some that are ~10 pages.
Not traditionally. A CV should contain essentially everything whereas the resume is tailored to the specific position.
CVs are much more common for academic positions but I've also seen them required for very specialized roles.

I think that's a very interesting thought, I hadn't considered the impacts on the opposition if the PM wasn't in the house when I wrote my previous reply.
I definitely agree with you that there's pros and cons to either systems and it comes down a lot more to how its implemented than anything else. I also agree that this is not the best time to be experimenting with new systems/tweaks to the system and I wish there was a way for us (as a society) to better assess how a system might work without risking so much.
