Startled! Andrew Chang on our national news network on About that, says that in the last 3 years, population growth has been over 3 million, of which only 70,000 were Canadians reproducing. No wonder we have problems - not just housing and services, but cultural adaptation. Chinese, Italians, Ukrainians and Sikhs remember how long it takes to adapt to a new home, a new culture AND how long it takes for the culture to adapt to newcomers. It was brutal for the above groups, brutal for indigenous inhabitants and a seriously stupid move - seems like govt doesn't realise all their policies impact in communities, not spreadsheets or corporate lobbying points.

Need to watch it again - fascinating program from the news network we all own in their National news in Ottawa's beautiful market area (which has been getting more and more troubled for decades). Now cops, paramedics, Sandy Hill community health centre are pairing up to do deep dive service. Paramedics there in a minute so lives saved and less ambulances for overdose emergs (all on the streets). Community equipped with Narcan. Cops on foot getting to know people and vice versa etc. Early days but community service as we used to.imagine it.
But one of the stories that affected me most was a woman, maybe nurse or social worker, saying: Before COVID someone would yell, Child on the block, and everyone would hide their drugs and the needles and stuff. But COVID broke that - everyone just went away into their selves.

They are showing Yintah on the Passionate Eye tonight on CBC - we showed it in Courtenay with World community and Sentinel Educational Foundation a few weeks ago. So pleased to see this powerful film get greater exposure

Bombing hospitals and schools, water plants and electricity -- I don't care who you are or how just you think your cause is - that behaviour is barbaric, illegal and just plain disgusting
