Have you considered joining the reserves? I've been a pacifist my entire life but am wondering about it now.

Devil's advocate: the better question is what percentage of Canadians will eventually max out their TFSA?

I don't think it's a good policy anyway, as the administrative overhead of managing yet another registered investing account (or making TFSA reporting more complicated) is more hassle than it's worth.

Gibby's Electronics Supermarket in St Catharines has more home theater equipment than computer parts, but they have a great selection and you generally won't beat their prices anywhere else, and they ship.

I can think of easier ways of compromising the data besides brute forcing the keys, off the top of my head, and I'm just some schmuck. Relevant XKCD: https://xkcd.com/538/

  1. Compromise their endpoint with a malicious app on the app store.

  2. Gain physical access to the device and compromise it. Use your imagination – pickpocket, traffic stop or customs inspection by a compromised agent, seduce them with a honeypot, etc.

  3. Socially engineer them to mistakingly add you to their group chats.

  4. SIM swap

Signal might be fine for journalists, criminals, cheating spouses, and general privacy when used properly with good OpSec but nation state adversaries have significantly greater resources than your average attacker, and thus require more significant security.

If your egg is clean on the outside where does the bad bacteria come from? Because its not from inside the egg.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Don't shoot the messenger.

While most bacteria including Salmonella are found on the shell itself, Salmonella can sometimes get inside an egg or it can already be inside an egg when it is laid.

OK, but it's still recommended to properly handle eggs, too. It's not like it's difficult to pasteurize eggs. You need a pot of water, a stove, and a thermometer.

I would at least rinse off the egg shell before cracking, personally, and when I make raw cookie dough to serve to others, I make sure I follow all food handling best practices since I'd be horrified to give someone food poisoning, as unlikely as it may be.

There's also this:

You can make your own edible cooking dough. You just have to pasteurize the eggs and flour. If I'm not mistaken, I think the flour is more dangerous than the eggs.

There are even shops which sell edible cookie dough pre-made if you'd prefer the convenience.
