Reward Details: Merchantman Freighter [T4]
Freighters and Transports are large vessels designed for trade and long-range cargo hauling. Almost all space-faring races utilize Freighters and have for as long as space travel has been viable. The "Merchantman" line of Freighters represents independence and freedom from the primary powers of the galaxy, and is typically flown by those who value their own merchant empires above any faction, territory, colony, or empire they may have once called home.
The Merchantman Freighter interior has a number of amenities including a Trade Duty Officer Assignment contact, which is not standard on most starships. Both you and your allies can access the Trader.
Also assigned to the Freighter interior is a Quartermaster. The Quartermaster can sell you and your allies commodities at a discounted rate. A similar discount applies when you make any Energy Credit Purchase while onboard your ship (for instance, from Sector Space Freighter Stores). The interior also includes access to the Bank, Exchange and Mail, all of which are accessible to you and your allies.
The Merchantman Freighter has access to a secure subspace channel to call in a Security Transport ship. The Security Transport will allow you to access Prisoner Transfer and Contraband Assignments. The Security Transport is not a combat support vessel, and can only be called when in Sector Space. It is accessible to you and your allies. Finally, the Merchantman Freighter comes with a Transwarp Drive that will allow you to access the furthest corners of the quadrant. The Transwarp Drive will allow you to instantly access most Exploration Clusters. Note, like many older Transwarp drives, the Freighters Transwarp has a small chance to fail.
Merchantman Freighters are not designed as combat vessels. They come with minimal armaments designed only to ward off pirates and other would-be threats.
Note: You can switch to your Freighter from any ship interior. Once you're done using it, switch back to any ship from the Freighter interior.

The questions are pretty good. One thing that they didn't include is the spectre of people choosing MAID due to deficiencies in the health care system, rather than the medical condition itself. I had to write that one in.
You don't have to lower the requirements - you just have to make it easier and more affordable to pass local competency exams and get a license.
If I remember correctly, it's somewhat controversial amongst family farmers who want to leave the farm to their children, so the Cons may think it plays well to their base from that angle.
Yeah, seldom have I regretted my policy of not editing headlines more than when I posted this.
It's worth mentioning that STO has transitioned to a German dev team, so maybe there's a translation thing going on.
He handles himself well, but it's light on policy. The closest he comes is saying something about how Canadians deserve a carbon tax that puts the burden on big companies, and not on the people. This would seem to suggest he would make some changes there.
Per Twitter, this giveaway has been delayed.
The Fuck Trudeau and pretty boy mantras are going to ring pretty hollow against Carney.
If Carney becomes leader, I expect they'll pivot to WEF/Illuminati nonsense.
Whether that will work is another matter entirely.
These were both known issues in yesterday's notes - that issue with the profanity filter must have been more extensive than I realized.
News Organizations.
Go ahead and post some alternatives if you're so upset about it.
Beyond that, how about letting people share what they want to share?
Turns out this is Nick's last week with Cryptic, which is pretty sad - he's been among the most accessible and patient devs I've ever seen.
Star Trek is a country, right?
Bagged milk was available in MB in the late 80s/early 90s, but it disappeared some time after that.
I already knew this was a national tragedy, but this is puts it over the top.
They've also been recalled in the States, so it may have been identified as an issue there, or in another jurisdiction. With only 12 units sold in Canada, it seems likely.
