Listen now | I dug up the contracts. Most were for work relating to the Canada Border Services Agency, valued together at more than $75 million.

      I never click them anyway, but what did I miss about substack that makes it that I shouldn’t? Genuinely curious.

      I’ve been close to blocking seeing any mention of links there already.

          The most recent offense being “accidentally” sending people a push notification with a nazi flag promoting nazi content.
