It appears that they are operating in the open without any effort to obscure. I don't know this world enough to make any specific allegations, but the amount of death and suffering summarized there must be massive. You and I are just learning of it now but it is surely known to those in power. This website isn't even putting any kind of "human rights" gloss on it.

Seem like corporate espionage, mercenaries, money laundering and similar. I also saw Crétier described as a "philanthropist" so likely influence peddling as well. One thing he does is BOLO a free-of-charge service to raise awareness about a dozen or 2 criminal nationwide like putting their faces on a track.

If you have the stomach you could try listening to this Business Council of Canada Podcast interview with Stephan Crétier. From the bad quality transcript I guess it's mostly about the fluffy end of things: pervasive mass surveillance and gangstalking.

Well, I think the answer is yes. It’s funny because when cameras started, all the systems of camera, I remember sitting with investors at that time. It was growing. I’ve always been looking for money. That’s for sure. So I’ve always been in front of investors. People are saying, “Your business won’t exist. For three guards, we’ll put a camera and a guard.” The problem is the more you put a camera the more you see things. The more you see things the more you need people to get involved. That’s been the reaction. You look at the growth of the security industry, the people side of the business. Since cameras have been there, it’s unbelievable. The growth is there.

what we’ve done is we worked with a lab in Montreal to develop I would call a kind of technology that is able to amplify events when you’re looking for someone, when they decide to put a focus on someone. We’ve developed a system that puts a lot of pressure on the person using social media. We’ve been very successful. We’ve done on the first year seven cases. We’ve caught one person that was wanted for 15 years. The objective is not necessarily to catch more people, but it’s to get people to realize on the long term that the world might be safe, but if everyone was doing their job of being on the lookout, the world would be a safer place.

I'm announcing a plan to overhaul the mayor's office to protect tenants bringing code enforcement Under One Roof and making sure that agencies are working together to hold bad landlords accountable

starting on day one we will expand the city's special enforcement programs

• doubling fines for hazardous violations
• tripling them for conditions that are immediately dangerous

when a really bad landlord like this guy refuses to fix it the city's going to step in make the repairs and send them the bill

if that doesn't work the city's taking over the building

we're putting the worst landlords out of business

and we're going to transform 3-1-1 by bringing the latest and cutting edge Technology: scheduling appointments with inspectors so you actually know when they're showing up to your apartment

and the best part you're [landlords] going to pay for this

but actually bad landlords are going to pay for this

we're going to fund this expanded enforcement in the most obvious Way by actually collecting the fines and enforcing the violations the Adams Administration has spent 4 years ignoring

everybody says housing is a human right let's start acting like it

Public transit should be reliable, safe and universally accessible. But one in five New Yorkers struggle to afford the ever rising fare. Adding insult to injury: our city’s buses are the slowest in the nation, robbing working people of precious time for family, leisure and rest.

Zohran won New York’s first fare-free bus pilot on five lines across the city. As Mayor, he’ll permanently eliminate the fare on every city bus – and make them faster by rapidly building priority lanes, expanding bus queue jump signals, and dedicated loading zones to keep double parkers out of the way. Fast and free buses will not only make buses reliable and accessible but will improve safety for riders and operators – creating the world-class service New Yorkers deserve.

Of course the federal government has the ability to legislate the international behavior of canadian-own businesses.

Government of Canada Responsible business conduct abroad

they are very different political orientations and attitudes.

one of the important ways that mamdani separates himself is that instead of following what polls say, he leads public opinion to get people on side with him. which is something the NDP is incapable of, to whatever extent they even agree on goals, which is not much. NDP totally lacks any ambition which is the point here.

whatever you are trying to say about nazis it isn't really helping you

Hey everyone, look at this moron who can't tell brown people apart.

assuming your statistic which sounds like it's based on your personal observations is accurate. all that says is that the US has the same parasitic strategy but is better at enacting it.

Years ago, I was involved in a construction project for a multi-unit residential building where wall and floor/ceiling panels were made in a factory and brought to the site to be assembled. Very similar to the article's picture where you see a whole room being lowered into place on a boom, except it was done face-by-face.

It was a major fiasco because of an error made by the architect regarding building code. Normally such an error would have been correctable without too much drama, but because of all the panels being made up it was really difficult to fix, and a lot of money way lost. The job went way long, into winter, which further lost money.

So my single experience, which may not be at all representative, is that these projects are intolerant to failure, error, deviation etc. If you could guarantee everyone will go perfectly, exactly the same each time, and no changes to plan then I think it's viable.

Never heard of such a project in any realm but they might invent it soon.

The canadian policy of poaching health care workers from other nations is truely malignant.

It's no problem to me if people want to move here for any reason. But the general idea that the health care system relies on incoming workers that have been trained and nurtured by other communities is definitionally parasitic. It puts us in a situation where we require other nations to have the kinds of problems that highly incentivize that kind of mass migration. If the Philippines solved all its problems tomorrow, it would totally destabilize the canadian health care system. It's shitty to put yourself into that kind of relationship.

Cuba sends doctors everywhere, to help those who need. Canada only sucks in doctors and nurses. A real shame.

Until Toronto tries to welcome new people, stop delivering visas to people coming to Toronto. Shut it down !! Canada’s housing politics have convinced some cities can’t handle population growth.

the PM approves visas between municipalities?

Every time I log off for a week I come back to some totally incomprehensible situation.

what's the bargaining unit?

do they have picket lines?

fuck ya DHL workers unionizing
