I am surprised that the most interesting essay I have read in as long as I can remember is about things we Canadians (and Ontarians and Torontonians) should consider but are almost certainly impossible to implement. I was surprised at how enthusiastic I was while reading it. "Yes! We should do that!"
Of course, after finishing, deflation set in and a solid dose of "oh well" returned.
What we have become is not the Canada I saw when I came here in 1970, still not 21. This country had and has stunning potential, but being considered the 51st state with an unpopular governor was not what I had imagined.
For my next protest vote for the federal election, I will write you in!

Thanks! I like this list of ideas and the thought process behind them. Looking forward to reading your work in 2025.
