Man, as a US citizen living in Canada, it really warmed my heart to see the size and energy of the No Kings protests yesterday.
I may not have been able to participate, but got inspired to draw this. Huzzah!

Yesterday was new sword day, a factor I forgot when I biked to sword class.
I've never felt more like a JRPG character in my life.

There’s a lot of people out of work. In fact, at least of the 586 respondents, 54% are out of work. This survey was largely shared on LinkedIn and Bluesky. That is to say: you’d have to have been active on these places for the last few weeks to have participated.

My best guess on Canadian animation total population based on broad-brush metrics from a cursory online search (ref. Studio Hog) is somewhere between 5000 on the low end to 10000+ on the high end. Thus our sample size is not really clear. Assume that it is less than 10%.
