Letter:

Dear Minister Miller,
I am writing to you in my capacity as president of the Canadian Historical Association | Société historique du Canada. The members of our association have been distressed to see the recent news about cutbacks in a number of federal government units that are very important to all Canadians who are interested in the history of our country: Library and Archives Canada, the Canadian Museum of History and the Canadian War Museum, Parks Canada, and Statistics Canad…

A gaggle of scorned landlords and real estate agents across L.A. have a message:
If Alexys Watson messages you on Zillow asking if you accept Section 8 vouchers,
choose your next words very, very carefully.
Over the last eight months, dozens of landlords and real estate agents have responded to Watson's inquiries — and dozens have been sued for $100,000. or more.
