There’s probably a lot of crazy stuff happen in Vancouver buses. Vancouver is transit centric, so from the mid-upper class to the poor and mentally ill uses the transit
The last one that I remember was early this year. I was riding the community bus (a 24 passenger, single exit bus, ) and one of the passenger looked like he hasn’t showered or changed clothes in days.
The bus bumped into something and the drive stopped and told everyone he had to stop and wait for the transit supervisor.
The guy then started screaming “WHY” several times to the driver and tried to pee on the driver. Luckily there’s a plastic barrier (from Covid days) so the driver’s safe. After that he probably realized he did something bad and walked out of the bus

So, what’s the percentage of non-dollar currencies 5 or 10 years ago?
If it’s also a fifth, then nothing has changed.
it would be nice to know the change instead of just a number at a point in time

Gaza Anything that needs to go into Palestine is controlled by Israel. Egypt only allows limited humanitarian aid to enter and no commercial goods are allowed into Gaza from Egypt

The closer term is Anti-Zionist.
Anti-Zionism is against the formation of Israel.
Anti-Semitism is hostile against Jews.
Israel has been successfully equating Zionism with Semitism for so long that very few use the term anti-zionism and people can call each other racist and silence others who’s arguing about Israel.
