Now imagine if this amount of resources was directed at finding the alarming number of murdered and missing indigenous women.

All over the world, there is a breed of municipal politician who genuinely thinks their role is to maximize a feeling of comfort and security for middle class property owners, and believes by extension that the homeless are just a lumpen mess to be cleaned up.

On the one hand, flying is a marvel of human ingenuity and logistical management.
