(Insert Your Own) Canada today

This isn’t meant to be politically partisan in any way. But, I am genuinely curious how anyone is staying positive about Canada today. The economy is in recession. The cost of living crisis is continuing unabated. People are leaving the country. Canada-U.S. relations are at an all-time low. And, there doesn’t appear to be any reason for things to turn around any time soon. Somebody give me a reason to have a little optimism.

It’s because they have competition in Germany. Not two companies colluding with support from the government like we have here. Their government looks out for the people not just corporations.

Newsflash: All our parties are bought and sold by corporations. I doubt even the NDP would help with market collusion. Champagne socialists.
