Canada has just lost measles elimination status. The U.S. will undoubtedly follow shortly.
Elimination means that there is no continuous spreading of measles within the country for a year or longer.
Canada and the U.S. have blown it, and it’s largely the fault of the anti-vaccination movement.

What we are seeing is a replay of the surrender on Covid protections because it was going to impact the wealth class in a way that would make it harder to accrue wealth without consequences.
Liberals already made the choice to kill millions to maintain the wealth class status quo.

In a new blog post, Andrew Torba, the CEO of Gab, a social media platform known as a haven for white nationalists, lauded the "economic miracle" of Nazi Germany, claiming that the Nazis "understood a fundamental truth our leaders deny: that an economy must serve its own people first."

The New Christian Right, Antisemitism & U.S. Democracy

Help if you can. Vancouver area in Canada, I believe.
I should’ve said that I’m also currently homeless. My life has an incredibly sudden and rapid descent, and I really need some help, particularly if you have an actual housing solution (of any duration) immediately

Help if you can. Disability poverty has been exacerbated by Liberal and Conservative policies in Canada. Disabled people are hungry, malnourished, and vulnerable to homelessness in Ontario and other provinces.
