You know with all the anti-ramming extra security and new equipment and hundreds of thousands of additional dollars for policing “events”in Vancouver… … Granville Island and it’s insane mix of traffic and pedestrian corridors, still exists.

I agree with your point, but isn't the issue more that we CAN build the ferries in Canada, with our current industrial infrastructure, whereas phones (e.g.) is an impossibility?

Ms Rachel got attacked for refusing to erase the children of Gaza so she responded by making a music video with 3 yo Rahaf, a double amputee from Gaza who lost her legs in an Israeli strike. Be a bad-ass like Ms Rachel. My toddler loves her. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtq-...

Invasive species outcompete local species, severely impacting them, reducing diversity and making the ecosystem generally more vulnerable. There might be a glut of invasive crab to eat now but there will be knock on negative effects on range of local species including commercially important ones
