VICTORIA — British Columbia Premier David Eby says his fellow premiers and the federal government have hatched a game plan to fight U.S. tariffs, with conservative premiers lobbying Republican counterparts, left-leaning provincial leaders courting the Democrats, and Ottawa focusing on president-elect Donald Trump. The premiers and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau talked about using their political diversity and connections to thwart the prospect of Trump's proposed 25 per cent tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, Eby said Thursday in a year-end interview. He said it was discussed that conservative premiers Danielle Smith in Alberta, Doug Ford in Ontario and Nova Scotia's Tim Houston are well-placed to lobby Republican governors and business leaders. Eby said as a New Democrat he will likely have more in common with Democrat governors and business leaders from the West Coast states. "I can easily have conversations with governors and businesses down the West Coast of the U.S., where we have close relationships and our politics are very similar," he said. "Premier Smith can have conversations with Republican governors. That would be more challenging for me, and (she) would have more connections potentially with the Trump administration than an NDP administration in B.C. would." He said a meeting last week between the premiers and Trudeau discussed Canada's diversity of representation, and how it could bring leverage and advantages in tariff talks. "It's interesting, there was a lot of talk about what unity means in terms of Canada's response to the tariffs," he said. "There's obviously a diversity of views around the Council of the Federation table of all the premiers. Certainly, mine is not the same as Premier Smith's or Premier Ford's or Premier Houston's, and that diversity of views is actually potentially a significant strength for us as we enter into these discussions." Eby also said he was prepared to appear on American's right-leaning Fox News TV network, as did premiers Ford and Smith. "Anything that I can do to support the national effort to protect the families in Canada from the impact of tariffs and also families in the U.S. from those unjustified tariffs," he said. "Absolutely, if I thought it was helpful." This report by The Canadian Press was first published Dec. 5, 2024.

Illinois educator switches to alpaca enterprise(BPT) - Has it been a while since you purchased a new TV? You might be surprised by how far TV technology has come since you bought your last set! Today's smart televisions offer dramatic improvements in picture quality and home screens that are far easier to navigate. Plus, they come with a host of cool features like voice control that you may not even know about. It's time to discover what you've been missing — and if you're asking yourself where to start, the Fire TV Buyer Insights Report can help. This independent study surveyed over 2,000 recent purchasers of smart TVs to learn everything from where they did their product research to why they decided to buy. With the holidays almost upon us, the insights in this report can help guide you as you kick off your seasonal shopping. Whether you're buying a gift, hosting a holiday gathering or looking for the perfect game-day screen, read on to find the best TV for your needs. How do you find the right TV? Here's how recent purchasers did it. When it comes to buying a new TV, there are several factors you'll want to consider, starting with who's going to be using it. The study found that spouses (36%), kids (13%), and even grandparents (1%) were involved in the purchase process, so be sure to keep your home's audience in mind. Beyond that, you'll also want to think about: Room size Smart TVs range in size from a 32-inch screen all the way up to a whopping 100 inches or more. To determine the right screen size for your room, follow this guideline: Small rooms: 32"–43" screen Medium rooms: 43"–55" screen Large rooms: 55+" screen As for viewing distance, divide the screen's diameter by 8 to get the ideal viewing distance in feet. For example, a 32-inch screen should be watched from about 4 feet away, while you'll want to be about 8 feet away from a 65-inch screen. Usage How you plan to use your new TV should play a large part in your decision-making process. If you're always looking for the latest show or movie to watch, your smart TV should offer optimal access to the latest streaming services. Gamers will experience better play on a TV with a high refresh rate, while sports enthusiasts will want to watch the big game on a set with smooth motion handling. Connected TV experience One of the most important considerations is how you'll use TV. In the study, 83% of TV purchasers said that easy access to content was one of the things they liked best about their new TV. But beyond being an all-in-one source for entertainment, your smart TV should also play well with other smart home devices. For instance, Fire TV allows you to pair compatible devices seamlessly like video doorbells, smart home devices, and more. And with select models, Fire TV's Ambient Experience can turn the biggest screen in your home into a beautiful, always-on smart display rotating through beautiful art, personal photos, and glanceable information like calendars and reminders. Knowledge is power Before you land on the perfect TV, you'll need to do a little research first. The study found that only 12% of shoppers bought their TV on an impulse, while 65% engaged in some form of product research. Most (82%) respondents conducted some or all of their research online for instant access to smart TV reviews and feature comparisons. In fact, over half of respondents who searched online mentioned digital retailers like Amazon as a great source for honest ratings and buyer reviews. Timing is everything According to the study, the time from research to purchase takes about two weeks, so plan ahead — especially if you're thinking about giving a TV as a holiday gift. There are also some great deals available during this time of year, so keep an eye out for sales and promotional offers. The big picture A new TV is a big purchase, so don't make it an impulsive one. Take the time to do your research and remember that everyone takes a different path to finding the perfect TV. Whether your search begins online, offline, or with a mix of both, it will end with a next-level viewing experience that's just right for the way you watch.

Audio Events on LinkedIn will soon be no more. In an update published this week, LinkedIn announced that it would be combining Audio Events with LinkedIn Live, effectively shutting down the audio-only streaming feature. According to the update, LinkedIn users can no longer schedule a new Audio Event as of December 2. Audio Events already scheduled before December 31 can continue as planned. Any Audio Event scheduled after that date must be rescheduled by December 15 as Audio Events will be entirely unavailable after this year. The end of LinkedIn's Audio Events LinkedIn launched Audio Events in 2022. The feature was the business professional-oriented social network's answer to Twitter's Spaces feature or the Clubhouse app. Streaming audio-only platforms became quite popular during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Clubhouse, for example, was valued at $1 billion at one point. However, the audio streaming boom quickly ended as industry trends recalibrated following the end of lockdowns and the release of the COVID-19 vaccines. By 2023, Clubhouse was laying off half of its employees. LinkedIn's announcement says that the company is simply "unifying" its Audio Events and LinkedIn Live features. However, LinkedIn Live, the platform's live streaming feature, requires that users stream via a third-party service. LinkedIn Live, the platform's live streaming feature, requires that users utilize a third-party streaming service. With the closure of Audio Events, LinkedIn will also be ending native streaming services on its platform.Kinkead Dent and diverse ground game powers UT Martin past New Hampshire, 41-10 in FCS 1st round

Once marked by exponential growth in 2021 and subsequent corrections in 2023, the cryptocurrency sector's hiring trends may see a new upward trajectory. Cryptocurrency exchanges that ET spoke to believe the proximity of Elon Musk-the self-styled "Dogefather"- to the incoming American dispensation, greater regulatory clarity at home and global crypto exchanges entering India may lead to a spike in professional interest in cryptocurrencies and help propel a lacklustre crypto job market. "With crypto being discussed for the first time as part of the election campaign," Edul Patel, chief executive of Mudrex, believes the US presidential election marked a watershed moment for the industry. Mudita Chauhan, CHRO of CoinDCX, echoes this sentiment. She said, "This change in the US could have a ripple effect, encouraging other countries with less clarity around crypto regulation to adopt more positive frameworks." "A few years ago, one of the biggest challenges was convincing potential hires that the crypto industry was legitimate and not a scam," said Patel.

With institutional investors entering the market and increased uptake of crypto and blockchain, "the need for skilled professionals across technical, legal, and operational roles will be in demand," said Patel who is actively hiring. Noting that the current demand for crypto talent is 60% of what it was in November 2023 and just a fifth of what it was in 2022-when there were over 13,000 active job openings in the Web3, blockchain, crypto and crypto-linked domains in India, Prasadh MS, head of workforce research at specialist staffing firm Xpheno, said, "There are currently 2,500+ active openings in the market, with a 30-days freshness cutoff." Cities like Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Pune, and Gurugram are home to a vibrant pool of Web3 and blockchain professionals . Illustrating examples of recent executive-level hires such as Prashant Verma, chief growth and marketing officer who joined from Licious, Abhinav Jain, chief financial officer, formerly of Pharmeasy and Tushar Tarun, head of legal who was earlier with Cashfree-all joined CoinDCX. Chauhan said, "Leaders from top technology companies, fintech giants, and other established sectors are increasingly making the move to Web3, bringing valuable expertise to help drive the industry forward." Interestingly, however, compensation in the crypto space has stabilised after sharp hikes in earlier years. Although average salary levels had earlier grown between 8% and 35% for some of the top crypto skills in 2021 and early 2022, Xpheno's Prasadh said, "The heydays for crypto talent with unprecedented hikes and wage wars are now in the rear-view mirror." Average salary packages for niche roles like Blockchain architects, developers and specialists range from ₹12-32 lakh per annum for early-career professionals and can go up to ₹35-78 lakh for seasoned experts, he said. However, these figures have remained flat for 18 months, reflecting the broader slowdown in tech hiring. Avinash Shekhar, chief executive of Pi42, says that global exchanges entering India could reignite competition, with international players offering 50-75% salary hikes to attract top talent. Driven by advancements in blockchain and increased institutional adoption, he predicts peak hiring activity by March 2025. Shekhar is preparing for the crypto talent arms race by "Creating communities within IITs and other top institutions. Internship programmes with rigorous selection processes are focused on developing new talent thereby offering strategic networks and partnerships to attract seasoned professionals. We are also enhancing our benefits package to include remote work options, wellness programmes, and professional development opportunities."
