        @paulg if the updates invalidate the story and the story's tone is unchanged, will anyone notice?

        @paulg Canada has a long history of fly-by-night training programs which take students' money and don't deliver. Regulation is necessary.

        @cperciva Is tutoring illegal in Canada as well? If not, why can't programs like this simply claim to be tutoring? (cc @paulg)

        @yuris @paulg I'm not sure about the details in the regulations -- just that they're aimed at combating a very real problem.
