Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

It costs a lot less to house people.

Elections Canada sent people to the cancer ward to make sure people didn’t miss their opportunity to vote. I haven’t been this impressed with democracy in Canada since we kept the People’s Party of Canada out of the House of Commons. Twice.

Could not be happier to vote today! This election could not be more important. And we are very fortunate to live in a country with free and fair elections. Own your democracy and vote!

Canada named among top countries with social purpose A study by U.S. News & World Report has ranked Canada third on a list of the top countries with social purpose.

A new study has ranked Canada 3rd on a list of the top countries with social purpose, seen as being “the most progressive and inclusive” countries in the world.

Denmark and Sweden occupy the top 2 spots on the list, while Norway and New Zealand round out the top 5.

Whenever you welcome guests, treat them with kindness, grace and respect. Simple as that.

After playing a fictional member of the Resistance a long time ago, I never could have imagined it ever happening in real life, but here we are.

Promised myself I was done trying new social media, that life is better without it. Alas, here I am, hoping to find sanity from places where there is less and less to be found.

I’m mom of 2 teen boys, avid reader, runner and healthcare executive. Looking forward to getting to know this space.
