I have tenants moving here from overseas, with their 3 yr old daughter. Since the little one won’t be able to bring many toys, I’ve built a playhouse for her. My hope is that every little one in the ‘hood comes to play with her.

An FYI, the pick up truck with the offensive sticker in the window and the Canadian Flag parked in front of my place is NOT anyone I know. I'm tucking a pride flag for my friends under his windshield wiper, and a note with a link to the TRC, and a mask. Other suggestions ?

@Davejonesy @FuzzyWuzzyTO Why is someone asking? A so-called ethicist suggesting he just die to save the hospital money? It’s unethical to suggest the person’s life isn’t worth the cost of his care. It’s intrusive and suggestive to ask. If the patient wanted it, he would have asked. Seems like coercion.
