This is a core difference between Canada and the US, and why I prefer the US: “Canadians across the political spectrum recognize that we’re not a series of individuals, but a society.”
And this demonstrates the flaw in socialistic thinking: “We recognize our shared obligation to look out for each other, and we know that when we do, everyone prospers.”
There is a difference between prospering and being happy and feel like you are in control of your own destiny. Helping others is always a good thing. Forcing other people to help others is always a bad thing, even if the “others” are helped.
Rob Rousseau, at one with cartoon characters. Noticed them referenced several times in the piece. Try living in the reality world and join the masses.
The statement is a load of bullshit. Quebec has $10 a day daycare - so that would be $210 per month. I pay $775 here in BC for our one child. You know why Quebec can afford it? They can’t. They received a form of province to province welfare from the provinces that run their finances responsibly. Using a complex formula provinces like BC, Alberta and Ontario are deemed as “have” provinces and therefore transfer money to Quebec, which, conveniently, since the transfer process was created, has always been a “have not” province. So they get somewhere around 12 billion dollars transferred to their province to act irresponsibly with their finances.
