We see this lack of vision in Canada as well, where Mark Carney is set on implementing the conservative bromides (smaller government, deregulation) of a bygone era, with no actual creative governance proposals at the domestic or international levels on offer.

I have always wondered.
I'm going to try and communicate with my Republican colleagues in a new way.

Canada: Health Canada won't fight Alberta's plan to charge for COVID vaccines.
"Starting this fall, most of Alberta's 4.8 million residents will need to pay out of pocket for COVID vaccines, if they choose to get them"

"It's never the crime, it's the cover-up"—but sometimes it's both. Many reasons Bill C-2 should be DOA, but a key one is how GoC is using it to sneak problematic 'cybercrime' treaty provisions into our laws, before even publicly deciding if we should be part of those treaties in the first place.
Imagine if all these countries spent 5% of their GDP on actually addressing climate change, or on global health, or on ending poverty. But no. War it is, as always.
This would be the largest public lands sell-off in modern U.S. history and it's happening with no hearings, no debate, and no public input.

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪
This is a travesty & a nightmare. The US was a founder of @gavi.org. It lowers global vaccine costs, has vaccinated 1B children, & averted 19M deaths. This pull out will cost 100s of thousands of children's lives a year - and RFK Jr will be personally responsible.

"please just fill in the circle on the ballot to help stop fascism"
"NOOOO! YOU HAVE TO *INSPIRE* ME!!!"
"you're a grown-ass adult, please, it's just a circle on a ballot"
"YOU'RE NOT *INSPIRING* ME ENOUGH! WAAAAAA!!! YOU DESERVE TO LOSE!!!!!"
I just walked past the aftermath of a sweep of an encampment of unhoused folks in my neighborhood, and, man... That is just NOT the solution. People need housing. It's a fucking human right. Period. And in the meantime, they deserve to not be treated like inconvenient trash.
There was an old tweet that stuck with me: "If you can easily walk to the coffee shop but your barista has a one hour commute, you don't live in a walkable 15 minute city; you live in a theme park"
what a bunch of fucking ghouls
Meanwhile in Canada:
A literal single vote margin. One vote. ONE VOTE decided the winner.

This reminds me of when I was chastised by a company founder in a personal review for using pencil and paper while (successfully) analysing an operations issue with a system I was responsible for
Happy Mothers Day
Also they should have social security numbers and get welfare. Come on. It is literally called welfare. You're saying you think humans should not collectively care for one another due to the absence of some paperwork. This is failing grade 1 of morality school.
