RWE podcast found very interesting.
Group that occupied Ottawa etc probably not on the rise but as a Canadian I do find this alarming possibly because as a country we’ve not been exposed as much to this
May be off base in my thinking but IMO Thank you
Thank you for taking the time to comment Mary Lynn. Yes, I agree RWE is worse than it has been historically but we have to not over-analyse it.
