    So you didn’t want conversation, you just wanted to get an answer about their contents?

    EDIT: lmao, this has gotten a lot of people quite salty to the point that they’re either deleting their comments or blocking me.

        They wanted a specific piece of information though, rather than opinions. You don’t have to be Canadian to read these documents

        Usually it’s asking for the purpose of generating discussion.

        Like, “What is the capital of Canada” doesn’t seem like a good question.

        “Why is Ottawa the capital of Canada” seems like a better question.

        “Who knows the capital of Canada” and then following it up with “ok and what is the longest street there” seems a bit silly.

          While not in the spirit of it, no rules are broken so it is acceptable.

          Do you know the longest street in Ottawa?

            Imma go ahead and say Bank St and wait to be proven wrong (think it actually is though).

            Edit: I’m technically wrong, it’s Dwyer Hill Road at 70 km long. Stupid amalgamation…
