It’s concerning what a few billionaires are doing but there are way more of us so if everyone is doing small things it can add up.

One easy one is noticing where businesses you deal with get their boxes. My favourite coffee roastery used to use Uline boxes but is switching suppliers after they learned the back story on those guys: https://www.propublica.org/article/uline-uihlein-election-denial

What are some other small ways you’ve found to push back on the attempted coup of our southern neighbour?

Not Canadian, but still switching suppliers.

Uline owners spent millions during Covid on propaganda that the vaccines were the real cause of Covid related deaths. They are truly EVIL.

The easiest one was switching my phone and computer’s browsers default search engines from google to Duckduckgo. It was so easy even my elderly parents managed it.

Google, one of the magnificent 7, earns much of its profits through search, an estimated $300 per person per year…

Also swapped out Tidal for Quboz. Both of those are an easy half grand ish out of America, and that’s before getting into foods and every other app I’ve switched.
