Hey, all. This seems like a pretty strong consensus.
Here in Canada, the federal government ended funding for public housing in 1994, and the entire system collapsed. Unsurprisingly, we're now in a housing crisis. We need more public housing fast.
@evan
And the BC NDP got elected 8 years ago and i figured we'd have unhoused people housed within like 2 years.
Complete flop
They acquired hundreds of housing units by buying shitty hotels, and still we have thousands on the streets.

I take it all back, there ARE violent criminals on the streets of San Francisco. They're grabbing people off the street and pepper spraying journalists.

Why aren't Americans unmasking them and posting their citizen mugshots and pix of their license plates for doxxing?
Why aren't Americans at the very least punching these unarmed Nazis terrorist kidnappers?

In June, ProPublica reported that the FDA has given more than 20 foreign factories a special pass to send drugs to the U.S. even though they were made at plants the agency had banned.
Today, we’re publishing a list of those exempted drugs.

Hey fellow Canucks, I would avoid food AND medicines from the US...

If you've ever wondered why Canadians say #ElbowsUp when referring to resistance against foreign agression.

The mutant version of capitalism we have now -- overwhelmingly tilted toward financial looters and their cartels -- is destroying community after community. This is deliberate, not an unintended outcome. Local hospitals are just one notably egregious example.

Looking for tools or supplies from a Canadian company, and you can’t find at your local hardware store, https://OHCanadaSupply.ca is pretty good. Edmonton Alberta based. Great service and reasonable prices. Of course not everything they sell is made in Canada, but it beats shopping at USA hardware stores like HomeDepot, Lowes, RONA, RenoDepot etc. In Quebec we also have PatrickMorin and Canac hardware stores, both Quebec based.

For all Trump likes to talk about “America First” crypto, his businesses are looking very UAE-first. Trump’s World Liberty Financial has just secured a $100 million investment from the UAE-based Aqua 1 Foundation, which has leapfrogged Justin Sun in Trump’s pay-for-access leaderboard.
![Trump business interests
Aqua 1 Foundation, a United Arab Emirates-based crypto fund, has spent $100 million to acquire WLFI tokens, the token issued by the Trump family’s World Liberty Financial Project, and cultivate a close relationship with the Trumps. They have just surpassed shady crypto billionaire Justin Sun and his $75 million investment to become the single largest holder of WLFI tokens.1 World Liberty also profited massively last month from a deal in which Emirati investment firm MGX used the company’s USD1 stablecoin to perform a $2 billion investment into Binance [I83]. In a press release, Aqua 1 claimed that they and World Liberty would work closely to “jointly identify and nurture high-potential blockchain projects”, and said that World Liberty “plans to support the launch of Aqua 1’s Aqua Fund — a UAE-domiciled investment fund ... dedicated to accelerating the Middle East’s digital economy transformation”.2 For all Trump likes to talk about “America First” crypto projects, his businesses are looking very UAE-first.
World Liberty also just announced a partnership with London-based Re7 Capital, a decentralized hedge fund backed by the Hong Kong multi-family office VMS Group. The partnership aims to increase USD1 uptake on BNB Chain, the blockchain run by Binance.3 Connections between Binance and Trump have already been controversial, with Democratic Senators Warren, Durbin, and Blumenthal writing a May letter requesting information on Trump’s connections to](https://media.hachyderm.io/media_attachments/files/114/779/560/270/449/469/original/87fde2170672ab78.png)
