After Hitler was elected his stormtroopers began grabbing people (Jews, socialists & enemies) off the street and stuck them in basements and other "wild" jails where they were abused & killed. To solve this unregulated terror, the Nazis came up with a solution. They called them concentration camps.

I've reached out to all Canadian companies listed here to ask if they intend to continue working with ICE:

Hootsuite
Roshel
Garda
Jim Pattison Developments

I've also reached out to @anitaoakvilleeast.bsky.social's team for comment on export permits for Canadian sale of armoured vehicles to ICE.
Drop the names of any Canadian companies you’ve seen working with ICE in the comments.

I’m aware of Gardaworld, Roshel, Hootsuite.

Would love to gather any and all other names.
