"Ordinary Canadians must prepare, not for war but for chaos—economic, political, social, cultural. If your neighbour’s house is on fire, yours eventually will be too."
"Trump’s comments on #Canada
must be put in this context. 👉 He has to keep the world afraid of him, because the moment that stops, his power collapses. He is attempting to spread loathsome anarchy everywhere, not just here."

This platform has proved to be pretty quite for me outside of one math meme re-share that went a little viral :).
I'm still checking in now and then but I've set up shop pretty much on Bsky, Cara, and still have active Meta accounts but, that's up for review for sure now.

Canada (fifty) first!
🤔 🇨🇦 Over the past 4 or 5 decades I've noticed across this country there has been a drop in Canadians voting for governments who support the most vulnerable; subsidized housing, financial support, etc...we are abandoning our sense of community spirit, our social democracy.
Truly discouraging and disappointing.
Millions, yes that many, are barely surviving, living in squalor; crammed together in basements, or aging and crumbling social housing. in unsafe unsanitary conditions. or are on the streets.
The shortage of old subsidized housing units has increased wait lists up to 12 years in some areas.
Meanwhile Canadians are falling for political rhetoric of trickle down economics that is really, trickle down selfishness, or , the Americanization of Canada .
A country is judged by how it treats its most vulnerable, we are failing--and polls say we are one of the best, the most free but are we when we leave people trapped in despair due to extreme poverty?
