A plurality stands with the people of Palestine. 🍉

faxed@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Doctors raise alarm over rising e-scooter injuries among children12·5 天前kids never even pretending to wear helmets on these things
someone i know was going for a walk and chanced upon a mangled child waiting for EMS to show up
52 per cent of all e-scooter injuries we’re seeing involve riders below the legal age
Do they at least give these people and their kids some sort of traffic rules class or something?
I don’t know what the answer here is, it seems like a job for Public Health.
Give away free bicycles? What was wrong with bicycles?
It appears that they are operating in the open without any effort to obscure. I don’t know this world enough to make any specific allegations, but the amount of death and suffering summarized there must be massive. You and I are just learning of it now but it is surely known to those in power. This website isn’t even putting any kind of “human rights” gloss on it.
Seem like corporate espionage, mercenaries, money laundering and similar. I also saw Crétier described as a “philanthropist” so likely influence peddling as well. One thing he does is BOLO a free-of-charge service to raise awareness about a dozen or 2 criminal nationwide like putting their faces on a track.
If you have the stomach you could try listening to this Business Council of Canada Podcast interview with Stephan Crétier. From the bad quality transcript I guess it’s mostly about the fluffy end of things: pervasive mass surveillance and gangstalking.
Well, I think the answer is yes. It’s funny because when cameras started, all the systems of camera, I remember sitting with investors at that time. It was growing. I’ve always been looking for money. That’s for sure. So I’ve always been in front of investors. People are saying, “Your business won’t exist. For three guards, we’ll put a camera and a guard.” The problem is the more you put a camera the more you see things. The more you see things the more you need people to get involved. That’s been the reaction. You look at the growth of the security industry, the people side of the business. Since cameras have been there, it’s unbelievable. The growth is there.
what we’ve done is we worked with a lab in Montreal to develop I would call a kind of technology that is able to amplify events when you’re looking for someone, when they decide to put a focus on someone. We’ve developed a system that puts a lot of pressure on the person using social media. We’ve been very successful. We’ve done on the first year seven cases. We’ve caught one person that was wanted for 15 years. The objective is not necessarily to catch more people, but it’s to get people to realize on the long term that the world might be safe, but if everyone was doing their job of being on the lookout, the world would be a safer place.
assuming your statistic which sounds like it’s based on your personal observations is accurate. all that says is that the US has the same parasitic strategy but is better at enacting it.

Very similar to the article’s picture where you see a whole room being lowered into place on a boom, except it was done face-by-face.
It was a major fiasco because of an error made by the architect regarding building code. Normally such an error would have been correctable without too much drama, but because of all the panels being made up it was really difficult to fix, and a lot of money way lost. The job went way long, into winter, which further lost money.
So my single experience, which may not be at all representative, is that these projects are intolerant to failure, error, deviation etc. If you could guarantee everyone will go perfectly, exactly the same each time, and no changes to plan then I think it’s viable.
Never heard of such a project in any realm but they might invent it soon.
The canadian policy of poaching health care workers from other nations is truely malignant.
It’s no problem to me if people want to move here for any reason. But the general idea that the health care system relies on incoming workers that have been trained and nurtured by other communities is definitionally parasitic. It puts us in a situation where we require other nations to have the kinds of problems that highly incentivize that kind of mass migration. If the Philippines solved all its problems tomorrow, it would totally destabilize the canadian health care system. It’s shitty to put yourself into that kind of relationship.
Cuba sends doctors everywhere, to help those who need. Canada only sucks in doctors and nurses. A real shame.

And indyref was pro-EU, which was reflected a few years later when the same voters who wanted to leave UK voted remain in EU.
The concept of leaving a union of nations has no inherent other political implications.
