as i sit here listening to the honking on elgin in the heart of ottawa, i'm thinking about something that doesn't get talked about at all:
increasingly, restrictions & mandates are more about squeezing more compliance out of the already compliant to make up for non-compliant.
although the non-compliant make up ~10% of the population, in a country of millions, 10% is a lot of people - only a couple hundred are needed to disrupt entire urban centres. now that we're entering year 3, i'm seeing more resignation from people who've followed all the rules.

it's insidious and disturbing how frequenly #honkhonk is paired with "pureblood".
