Diary 221

Sunday, October 25th

Today came the news that, finally, a 50th nation has signed the treaty outlawing nuclear weapons – an agreement that becomes binding in 90 days. The wheels of democracy turn slowly. But we trust in it – and 60 million Americans have already cast their early ballots.

Just a reminder: in Canada the government is giving $1500 (US) per month to those most affected by Covid. The US managed to squeeze $1200 out of its coffers, and that is all we’ve had for the past seven months. Which Government do we think actually cares for its citizens? Not this Republican-led rabble.
