Canadians have a historic opportunity to punch Microsoft in the face (europe.pub)

In peaceful times, people cling to broken systems simply because "that's how it's always been done". Comfort is a prison.

This crisis is a great opportunity to screw Microsoft.

Chaos isn't a pit. Chaos is a ladder.

Canadians should be agressively lobbying their politicians to embrace Linux and the open source ecosystem. Call your representatives. Write to your city council. Contact your town IT department. Do it now.

I'm not talking about individuals or mom and pop shops. I'm talking major banks in Canada, big corporations, etc. They need stuff like Data Factory, DataBricks, Functionapps, Logicapps, solid redundancy across multiple regions, etc.
