Time For The Younger Generation To Scream Uncle!

 

The rollback of the age of eligibility for Old Age Security is a very bad policy idea. How is it fair to pile on another 88 Billion dollar financial burden onto the younger generations already huge obligations, which according to a new CD Howe Institute study includes higher taxes, fewer services, responsibility for unfunded public sector pensions, MP’s pensions and of course ever increasing debt.

The Biggest Public Education Failure in History

 

Yesterday Volvo announced it will sell Uber 24,000 self-driving taxis by early 2019. It’s silence from Politicians and the School system while they are doing absolutey nothing about this inevitable loss of 100’s of thousands of taxi, delivery and trucking jobs to this technology in just a bit more than a year. Nothing has been done, nor is anything planned to be done just as this problem accelerates.
