Guaranteed income is coming to the front burner of public policy in Canada. Free money and the promise of something for nothing will further blind us to the need to address the fundamental changes required to meet the employment challenges our children face.

That was a quick $10.5 million dollars that the Trudeau Government slipped into Omar Kadhr’s back pocket on America’s July 4th Birthday. The backlash has many facets but the most blatant is that Kadhr is getting $10.5 miilion and an apology from the Canadian government for admittedly killing an American soldier while fignting as an Afghani. Worse the family of the dead US Soldier Canadian citizen Kadhr killed got zero from Canada. That $10.5 Million tax dollars is also more money than has ever been paid to a Canadian soldier in history.

This week McDonalds announced it is going to replace 2500 cashiers with self-ordering kiosks. Last week Amazon’s new “Just Walk Out Technology” eliminates cashiers, sales people, shelf stockers and other low wage jobs. Obviously the future is here now, and if we don’t massively re-think how we educate our children, not many of them are going to be able to get a job. Sadly our educational establishment are ignoring the necessity to change at a time when change is happening faster than any other time in human history. Bottom line, if we don’t change how we educate our children we are inviting social unrest.
