West Broadway, Winnipeg. For bikes, transit, and livable urban planning. Wrangles data for a living. Wrangles my children when I’m not.

The big terrible things wouldn’t have been blocked in a world in which the big powers just wouldn’t be members. And the coordinated long-term work of health, labour, human rights, and other slow but meaningful (in years of life saved, quality of life), would have had far less impact.

It honestly reminds me (this and Ontario) of the 19th century provincial-federal relationship. Don’t like a provincial law? Disallow it in Ottawa.

It seems unfair in both directions. Something could be either without being the other. But the symptom you’re describing: absolutely. (Spoke as a ‘surprise’ vegetarian - people don’t expect someone ‘like me’ to be vegetarian - going on >20 years. )
