“Sacrifices, historically, are supposed to flow in the order of old to young, not young to old.” - this is ingrained in my every cell. When did this change?! Despicable. Covid was disgusting if only for this reason.
It really did change during Covid. Still not back to where it should be, at least in Canada. We haven’t properly punished our politicians for it — yet. Hard to believe.
I hadn't heard of the Montreal screwjob but, like most of us, am far too familiar with the many previous Laurentian screwjobs! History may not repeat but it certainly rhymes. This boomer acknowledges the disgusting political behaviour of his generation (and those bracketing it) but I DO NOT and have not ever partake(n) in their foolishness. What I'm saying is #NotAllBoomers are the problem! I'm sure you knew that already. Keep up the good work Alex. #FactsOverFear
Thank you for this, Bill! Very much aware of #notallboomers, I do lament having to harp on this a bit, but that’s just how the demos are breaking down, and the scenes from Carney’s campaign rallies confirm that breakdown. Disappointed to see this Liberal-oriented crowd again lose their minds, but not surprised. He really is a walking talking social license for this crap to continue. We’ll all keep plugging away to turn the tide!
Thank you Carol! Apologies for the slow response, has been a lively week, to say the least. Passing along what I can, and will keep your thoughts front of mind!

Time to change that.
Amen, Alex. Thank you. I think we may be closer than is commonly assumed.
And thank you, Jodi! Terrific piece this week. Happy to share.

Well said Alex - did you see my direct message on X?
