Suffering from Canadian existential angst this evening. We have a babysitter-impregnating former Justice Minister, another minister who publicly admitted that hungry poor kids are not his or the government's problem, a government that kowtows to Israel, disenfranchises First Nations, the poor, the young, the elderly , veterans, women, cheats on elections, controls the RCMP and the military, controls the message all the time and a narcissistic megalomaniac micro-manager PM who denies any knowledge of any wrong-doing and is prepared to throw anyone under the bus to save his own sorry hide. Canada is becoming a mean, nasty, inhumane country that pollutes the world, exploits people from other countries and is on the cusp of throwing out all that the world has admired us for - peacekeeping, the charter, universal health care, high literacy, sane and fair justice... What is going on? Why are people not mad as hell? Incremental change. Know who else used that technique to make radical changes over a long period of time? Sometimes it feels like running into a brick wall. I just want to shake my fellow Canadians - "WAKE THE FUCK UP!" Don't you see what's happening here?
