A shopping mall and office complex in downtown Montreal is being criticized for using the popular children's song 'Baby Shark' to discourage unhoused people from loitering in its emergency exit stairwells.
I mean, this will keep me away too, and I’m “housed” and even occasionally legitimately go to malls with money to spend on things. You play even one loop of that song and I’m Swayze.
I am willing to bet most people going wouldn’t even notice because it is only being played in emergency stairwells. Glad it made the news, this shit is infuriating. However, I believe most people agree with it, even if they won’t admit to it.
