Haven't yet, but just thinking, despite the 800lb gorilla to the South of Canada, I might be better there.

Fantasic work Nick and research. Scary.

Hopefully you find someone real to write that original brief. I've not been in Canada since 2008, but here in England, I'm concerned about the creep of two tier pay medicine appearing. Pay now and get seen, or wait for the NHS.

Oof. That's right outside the London office of the company I work for. Luckily I go no further than that, but having walked down that way a few times, wouldn't want to try a merge into traffic there.

Most interesting hint of what their culture is like is in Predator 2, when he spares a woman because his infrared vision shows that she’s pregnant. Shows they have some fish and game regulations.

Sort of like an advent calendar of outrage.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan on why the Far Right lie about London crime: “They don’t want our modern, multicultural, progressive metropolis to succeed because they can’t stomach the truth. London is a place where people of every creed, colour and culture live together in peace and mutual respect.”
