The map above illustrates former colonies and nations shaped by British colonial law, where criminal statutes for homosexuality have persisted long after independence. It highlights the significant work still needed in former colonies to secure basic human rights for LGBTQ+ communities and to challenge the colonial myth that homosexuality is a Western invention.
Hello everyone! My partner and I have been prioritizing Canadian-made or non-American products ever since Trump's annexation threats began. Now, I'm excited to extend that to my tech setup—ditching Microsoft Windows, Google speakers, and Amazon smart devices for proudly Canadian or international alternatives. Any recommendations for solid replacements?
Canadian Tech Companies I have found and I am using:
- Sync (Cloud Storage)
- whc.ca (Canadian Web Hosting)
- ecobee (Canadian Smart Thermostat, also has other IoT devices)
- Gander Social (on the early waitlist for, it is a Canadian social media platform that should be released this year I believe)
Looking for:
- Canadian Smart Speaker alternatives
- Canadian phones like Blackberry or anything else
- Canadian smart devices (lightbulds, door sensors, motion sensors etc.)
