Traumatized ppl don't act as you expect "normal" ppl to respond. They might fight, or flee, they may freeze or placate the person who presents a danger to them.

Our provincial government is committed to taxing Calgarians without providing corresponding investment back into our city. @thecalgaryparty.bsky.social is ready to address the imbalance.
Danielle Smith is back at it. This time it's costing you an avg of $239/yr on your property tax bill in the form of an education property tax.
