This is a legit suggestion, so I’m going to strongly upvote the comment. Not sure why the downvotes are coming in, other than, as you say, perhaps indicating that people think that the Red Cross is ineffective, or that Canadian-specific multipliers aren’t highly relevant for this discussion.
A few months later, I want to note that my impression is that the Red Cross is indeed quite ineffective in this regard (helping Ukraine in the war). Other options are better. I came to this conclusion soon after writing the above comment, but I didn’t come back here (till now) to correct myself. I still think that the original comment in this thread was made in good faith, and thus I wouldn’t downvote it. I did, however, want to make clear that my thoughts had evolved significantly after writing the above comment.
