We are in the 2nd Gilded Age, whether you are aware of this or not; a few have all of the money, and the rest of us must suffer as a result. Wage stagnation, the destruction of the labour union movement, full time part time employees, with no benefits, the gig economy, oligopolies paying off politicians via lobbyists, the return of child labour... It's all bad. I can guarantee you, if the Cons win the next election, it will get much worse. 2024, the year of the pushback.

Not everyone can do everything. But everyone can do something. Because #DemocracyIsSomethingYouDo...
Write to your MP, MPP, MLA, MNA, Senator, or preferred local media outlet to tell them you expect them to dig deep into the Doug Ford corruption story as well as indicted-in-the-USA-for-trying-to-steal-an-election Mike Roman's links to Stephen Harper and Andrew Scheer. And tell them you want them to do more to house the homeless.
If you live in Alberta, you have until April 22 to register to vote in the AB NDP Leadership race.
With the current strain on our health care professionals, do the right neighbourly thing to keep our hospitals unclogged: get your XBB, flu, pneumonia, and / or RSV shots , as well as meningitis B, COVID, and MMR boosters.
Finally, support your fellow Canadians by donating to the Red Cross Wildfire Response.
