Tawanda, do we want to turn this on only for CA geo and en-CA locale, or are there other locales within the CA geo we should enable as well?

Comment 3

[Gavin Suntop [:gvn] (they/them)]

Answer from retro: enable both en-CA and en-US locales for both US and CA geos.

Comment 4

[Tawanda Kanhema]

Affirmative, let's maintain parity with current experience.

(In reply to Tawanda Kanhema from comment #4)

Affirmative, let's maintain parity with current experience.

You mean match the existing behavior of activity stream showing pocket section? It's turned on for all en-* locales for US and CA while comment 3 says only 2 locales. Or match the behavior of discovery stream enabled on certain locales for US and CA on nightly?

Per Jess in Slack: @cmuresan has confirmed that we can make en-* QA work. Let’s make it happen!

So, we'll enable all en-* locales for US and CA geos.

I have verified this issue with the latest Firefox Nightly (70.0a1 Build ID - 20190811215021) installed, on Windows 10 x64, Arch Linux and Mac 10.14.5. Now, "DS" is turned on for the "CA" region.
