Even though it is 18 minutes long, I truly urge you to listen to Mark Carney’s full speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos yesterday. It’s a speech for our times. Eloquent, intelligent, brutally honest, and historic. If only our own timid leader could be this strong. 🇨🇦

If you live in the Cities, an easy way to help immigrant families in hiding is: laundry! Laundromats are ICE magnets, so people without washers need help.
The People’s Laundry will drop off laundry to your door to wash and dry and pick up a few days later:
