Canada has a thriving, WEALTH CREATING economy selling minerals, lumber and oil.

I've never taken a course in economics - hell, I'm lucky to have a high school diploma. But in my near 70 year existence on this planet, one thing has become clear to me. There are only two ways a government can create wealth. Either it exploits natural resources or it exploits people.

Governments do not create wealth. They consume it.

People and businesses create wealth - drop the Marxist book you’ve been reading and slowly step away...
