Has anyone noticed a new and more forceful attitude coming out of the federal government? I'm seeing more pushback and calling out, unless I'm dreaming it. If I am dreaming it, it is a beautiful dream.

It is important for the government to call out any and all inaccuracies and bald-faced lies. It is also important for the government to remind people of all the messes they had to clean up from the cons' time in power, lest anyone forget.

Is the federal government perfect? I will be the first to admit that they are not, especially when it comes to particular portfolios (no one will be surprised that I mention disability inclusion here, and frankly seniors shouldn't have to live in poverty either), but with that...

...said I do believe that if the cons (and realistically, at least at this point in our growth as a country, there are only two parties that are able to form government) had been in power, our Covid response would have been catastrophic. The economy would have fully collapsed...

...and we'd have 10x the number of cases and exponentially more deaths.

I appreciate that the LPCs have moved further left and are more ideologically aligned to progressive policies now than ever before. I hope they do not move back to centre right. The older I get, and given...

...the recent choices in career I have made, I can now more than ever appreciate that we need a stronger social safety net, especially for seniors and for people with disabilities, and all other groups and communities that have been long neglected.
