Actually... being a Quebecer myself I can tell you first hand that 80% of the Quebecois can't speak a lick of English and that the 20% who can are native English speakers from places like the Eastern Townships or Montreal... so very doubtful they will have a French accent. Also... English folk speaking good French in the rest of Canada is like... few to none...

at least it will be consistent... whereas in England there are about 10 different accents and a made up 'received' pronunciation as fake as it gets ; )

Should have no fault insurance like in Quebec, Canada... where the Government has to cover damages and pay for any salary lost as long as the injuries persist...

The point that I was trying to make, is that teaching I believe is a form of communication.
Students will either switch on or switch off.Why do you believe that foreigners should be entertainers whereas
Thais not?Teaching requires a balance and if you are acting like a clown to get a laugh out of the kids you will never be able to get them to become serious when you need to because the kids won't see you as a serious teacher.
Thais are not expected to be edutainers... why should we?

It is being embraced out of a desperate desire to restore pre-pandemic levels of travel to Thailand. Any other implications are simply not considered, not is the fact that the travel market has utterly gone. No database showing that one is vaccinated will change that.
And in the meantime the Thais are still driving their new Isuzus and sedans... I might be blind but I really see nothing of the so called destitution...
Thais saving face I guess...

While around the world people are speaking out of the discriminatory implications of such a passport... here... in Thailand... the idea is embraced!

I have my 5 year teaching license and had it for past 12 years. Once I went through the hoops I really didn't need to show any more paper work after that... and 18 years ago no one was looking for notarised anything... not even sure they want it now...

And OP never mentioned whether he wants a legal licence or whether he can use hack tools to crack the windows. OP needs to get with the times and learn about torrents where he can download all he needs rather than paying some dodgy shops that (like other poster mentioned) install all kinds of junk and generally use flashy windows systems full of third party stuff. BTW... they don't usually do clean installs but rather ghost their stuff which usually leads to many problems.

Yeah, I totally forgot to mention, I live and work in BKK, so a legal bike, plated with a genuine green book is a must. That is why I was leaning toward the Steed or Phantom. There is an old Kawasaki I see quite often, small, older looking. They have plates. I don't know if they are "legal" though. Anyone know what they are? I think only 1 cylinder. But, any other options? I see alot of old bikes, Rebels and Viragos, but can they have a legal book?
As soon as you change even the color on a bike you need to register the changes and if the bike is over 6 years you have to do yearly inspections... good luck with those...
Street legal falang and modified don't go well in the same sentence in Thailand.
Good luck

"Am I missing something here."
The profit motive?
Hmmm seems like a very clever way to get a free pass for smoking grass. If you have the THC scrip and you take legal THC then you will have THC in your blood and will be revealed if tested. However, if you are a smoker of grass you can pull out your THC medical cert and claim that you did it all legally and don't smoke the stuff.
I think it should be legal myself and don't see smokers as criminals, but it seems to me that this has opened a can of worms from the legal point of view of it all...

Food seller? Covid?

Having taught here for over 17 years I can say that many parents must be biting their fingernails. For the working parents it must be a logistic nightmare. For the parents who can't afford it upgrading their computers and internet must be near impossible. For teachers, it is not all that great too.
However, when in Uni 20 some years ago a professor once told me that one day school would be taught via the internet. I was upset at this yet seems that his words were a prophecy of things yet to come.
I believe that online learning is the future and that until it is tweaked society will go through a weening phase...
Who knows, maybe the roles of grandparents sent to old folks will be redefined and our seniors will find a new place rather than live in abandonment and once again they can become as in Thailand and in many Asian countries helpers in the rearing of family's children.

Yesterday I went from Rayong to Chonburi then up to Rayong City... not one checkpoint. Smooth sailing throughout. So, where are they enforcing the law?

????????????????????????????
True... for a Thai...
How about trying to hit someone causing corporal damage without a driving licence...
Now try doing that if you are a falang.
First thing to consider... your insurance won't cover you. So rather than laugh at what Thais can get away with and trying to make fun of the law maybe you should seriously consider what you are saying before trying to make a joke out of it.
