When a state’s response to peaceful popular grief & anger is to preemptively deploy militarized equipment, you often end up caught in an escalation pattern that benefits no one and leads to abuses. The US should know better. It constantly calls on other countries not to do so.

Such an appalling, heartbreaking story. Many Canadians with disabilities live in legislated poverty. And our underfunded healthcare fails to provide appropriate care. Instead of MAID (medical assistance in dying), what if we offered real Societal Assistance In Living? Our

Glad to see that @PierrePoilievre wants the Federal government to build more homes. Perhaps he is a closet socialist after all? In any event, he’s right, the government’s laissez-aller, market approach isn’t the solution. Boldly socialist policies are. #HousingCrisis #canpoli
