UNREASONABLY CALLED
Monday, August 16, 2021
Brick wall pandemic, plus a collection of too many scandals, massive debt, a struggling economy, too many struggling people and a parliament that refused to terminate him by non-confidence vote; the answers aren’t found in quick-footed political shuffleboard as our Prime Minister tries promising everything to everyone with a ‘no-end-in-sight’ deficits plan for us paying. That’s his plan.
Do we realize these walls aren’t racing toward us?
Instead, it is we who are running into them.
We’ve hit brick walls before – bloodied those new walls and ourselves in the process.
In politics, it’s hindsight.
In business, that’s a correction.
In all relationships, it’s a déjà vu learning opportunity.
Resetting our thinking is easy once that wall hits us. Too often, we are cruising along, oblivious to imminent danger.
Success isn’t found by avoiding future mistakes; it’s not repeating ones we’ve made before.
Our future is no brick wall.
There is one tool we all have – a ballot.
X marks the spot.
p.s. to Mr. Trudeau: shaving your beard may appeal to some voters, but most of us want substance, intellect, policy and integrity from someone else, not from you in fresh packaging. You had two years to go, and now at your own hand, you have two months to go and, Canadians get to rethink the merits of all parties/leaders. The PMO wizards crafting your campaign are the same wizards who gave us the SNC scandal, the WE fiasco, turned blind eyes to abuse in RCMP and Military upper echelons while sweeping too many lumps under rugs, thinking we’ll be too blinded by COVID and two billion tree plantings to notice.
Reader feedback:
All so true, Mark! Those 33 senators voting against identifying the genocide in China, created a great sadness in me. I wonder if their heads are buried deeply in the sand, (just don’t know what is happening) , or are ‘owned’ (or fear) the CCP. I, too want to vote for someone/something…any idea who that would be??, SF, Lethbridge, AB
