Massive bank hacks are *not* a hypothetical. Is your money actually safe? A crucial question to ask: "What does your bank intend to do when the banking system is hacked?" #CyberSecurity #Finance

I believe the 🇨🇦 version of blind trusts should demand all MP and Senators sell stock & bond assets, placing their complete portfolio in an S&P/TSX Index ETF. Imagine an incentive to build capital and wealth in Canada. Their family fortunes would be at stake. #cdnpoli.

Do you have a pivot plan for your business?. Or do you complain about political leaders?. Embrace risk, accept the economic environment as is and increase the probability you win in the next round of political turmoil. #ResilienceIsKey #tariff .

Trust is earned, it is not anointed in your position title. If you communicate with the public, trust will determine whether anyone is listening. If you're in emergency management, your alerts are not trusted by default, you need to earn that. #wildfire #disaster #Resilience

A prepper isn't just stocking up on canned goods for a few weeks. They're strategizing for food as a complete system. Are you thinking long-term? #prepper #preparedness

So many were just “two paychecks away” from losing everything. The pandemic exposed how unprepared many were, revealing a shaky foundation. #EconomicReality #FinancialStress #EconomicReality #FinancialStress

Why is preparedness automatically labeled as crazy? Questioning logic shouldn't make someone a conspiracy theorist, but if it entertains, so be it. #Preparedness #ConspiracyTheories #Preparedness #ConspiracyTheories

Think preppers are all off-grid? The majority are regular folks in townhouses, replicating essential systems. They blend in, drive BMWs, and prep quietly. The real pros aren't always who you expect. #Prepping #UrbanSurvival #Prepping #UrbanSurvival

Do strong community bonds determine disaster resilience? Research shows it's less about money and more about trust. When people trust each other, communities navigate crises better. #SocialCapital #CommunityResilience #SocialCapital #CommunityResilience

Humans are wired for community. Thriving isn't about being a "lone wolf," it's about collective strength. Being prepared means understanding the power of 'we'. #CommunityResilience #CommunityResilience #Tribalism

Taking responsibility changes everything. When your attitude shifts to "it's not someone else's job to take care of me," you unlock new possibilities. How has this mindset changed things for you? #Responsibility #Mindset

The pandemic revealed a stark truth: How many were caught completely off guard. The lack of preparedness sparked a need to examine why so many depend on intervention. "Utterly astonished." #Preparedness #Resilience

Critical infrastructure—from tech to healthcare—is more fragile than people think. Most disruptions are resolved in 14 days, but preparedness is key to weathering those initial shocks. #Resilience #CriticalInfrastructure #Resilience #CriticalInfrastructure

Solar panels aren't the only path to resilience. What skills & knowledge are needed to maintain a semblance of normal life when critical infrastructure fails? How will you adapt? #resilience #preparedness #resilience #preparedness

Preparedness isn't about money, it's about skills and knowledge. Can you feed your family if the grocery store is closed for 30 days? "It's my responsibility." #preparedness #selfreliance
