A spokesperson for Ontario's Ministry of Health said that prescribing hearing aids is restricted to licensed audiologists and physicians. "Should the AirPods Pro 2 be sold in Ontario as a hearing aid it would need to be done in accordance with the requirements [of the Regulated Health Professions Act, 1991]

Ontario is not all of Canada. Why if Ontario objects, couldn’t I still get a set with the feature in British Columbia. 

Most of Canada's urban population is centered in Ontario.

This is a typical… Lord William… and/or AI's editors… of bad news attracts page views… aka ad revenues.

Microsoft ‘invested’ $8 Billions 14 years ago… to buy tech and system… in which they bases the actual Team offerings.

It would be like saying that Apple ‘blew’ $3B to buy Drew's company… to build up Apple Music streaming service.

They put their bet on teams which plays into their Office Suite. Skype is looked at fondly but is hardly a modern communications tools, inferior to everything else out there. Teams doesn't suck. And they can enforce its use. I'd say it's a well played investment on Msft's part.

eBay wanted the service as a bolt on to their auction system before eBay finally turned into a swamp of cheesy resellers.

the showing of apple employees and especially chief briber Cook greeting people at their stores with such enthusiasm is appalling.

Like so much of a bribery victim's fealty, this will amount to no investment, no jobs, but plenty of time for T**** (the convicted felon and sexual predator) to lead his boy Cook around on a leash.

It's the tech spec, not the connector.
