It was the surrounding cognitive dissonance, apathy & ignorance that were hard to take, for me. Why couldn’t they see what we saw? Now I know, there were many reasons, including the strength and all-pervasiveness of the fear-based propaganda. So so glad we’re in a better place now, like you!

And when you have children, it becomes imperative! It is our responsibility to teach them our values and respect our inherent dignity, not to mention safeguard our mental health, which is a factor.

100%..I remember my mental health was getting pretty bad the last year or two in Canada, especially when I was facing losing my job…& kept asking, “What will they take next..?”
