Oof. Not a good look for edge.

I'll be the first to admit I think this protest is about a bunch of idiots with a victim complex. They should just get the vaccine like 90% of the rest of their profession have done. It's safe and is what anyone should do to help their fellow humans.

The Emergencies Act is law. If Edge wants to do business in Canada they have to follow it. I don't see this ending well for them.

Maybe I'm an old curmudgeon, but I also don't want to see ANY financial company using memes in an official press release.

It's not a good look for the Canadian government.

Predictable one though.

Kudos to Edge. This is a ridiculous request.

Asset seizure is a big step, I agree.

They should just cut off their mobile data. Going without Joe Rogan podcasts and Jordan Peterson tweets will eventually hit hard.

What a childish response and a great way to invite future regulation. I’m not an Edge customer but if I was I wouldn’t be anymore. Why would I entrust my money with a company that ignores the law and responds in memes?

As a mid-30s sw engineer, I’d say it’s a good look. I hate professional facades and meme’ing is how people communicate now. I’d also say the first part of your your last statement is probably correct, in that you might be an old curmudgeon ;)
