Canada has always accepted immigrants. Rapidly increasing the number of foreign students to goose the slumping post-secondary education sector did not work out great. Even with the reductions, there are always immigrants coming into Canada.

No one cares. Japanese culture today is nothing like it was 200 years ago.

In English they can, in fact, be used, at times, interchangeably!

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/accept

Accept: to give admittance

Why is every argument against any level of immigration that the people of Japan are unchangeably xenophobic? Japan is bringing in more immigrants than ever: https://soranews24.com/2025/08/13/foreign-population-in-japa...

Japan is already accepting immigrants! It's right there in the article I linked! It's just a question of raising the quota slightly.

It's hardly going to solve every problem, it will keep restaurants from closing.

Japan is not without problems related to a shrinking population i.e. https://eastasiaforum.org/2026/05/21/japans-immigration-poli...

but it's a problem easily solved by just letting in more immigrants.

Delta P is one atmosphere or less, like 15 PSI. Lots of stuff can handle 15 PSI.

Now, will it immediately off-gas and embrittle on exposure to vacuum? Different question.

Do you think the US is going to have Nuremberg trials? Do you think there will be a deep national reckoning about what happened?

Everyone loves gas and hates refineries. It's a tough choice.

Weirdly California doesn't get all of its gas from domestic refining.

https://timesofsandiego.com/state-region/2026/04/23/prices-c...

"California’s top foreign refinery supplier of gasoline and blendstocks this decade is Reliance Industries Ltd.’s Jamnagar refinery complex in western India. "

"More than 9 million barrels arrived via this loophole in 2025"

Now, that's a tiny fraction of the 320M barrels of gas used in CA annually, but anything that affects global oil shipments will be felt in California.
