This is my first time at the flood rodeo! Not my favourite, admittedly, lol. We had a very cold (for Vancouver) winter, and I had a pipe burst while I was at work. I caight it before too too severe damage, but because it was upstairs, I lost a lot of my ceiling and walls, and some of my flooring. I've been slowly picking at the repairs over the year, and so far, so good, but I'm definitely tired and it was definitely demoralizing.
You're spot on with the NA hurdles, that's for sure. Getting North American big deals really hinges on having a culpable legal entity in ownership in charge of the ecosystem, ORRRR pay a few hundred thousand dollars plus as a ransom to get your foot in the door, and still offer up a fully doxxed fall guy. Tricky, but not insurmountable, slowly but surely. Hopefully these legal opinions will help us stay as resilient as we have been in the face of the tightening 'standards' the world has been facing.
Sending love and greetings your way! 🖤
