Mike's Daily Comment
Canadian ex-pats who don’t pay taxes in this country are still allowed to vote, should they get to influence government policy if they don’t live here?
Whether they want to or not, every worker in Canada under the age of 70 must pay Canada Pension Plan Contributions. So why on earth is the CPP spending hundreds of thousands of dollars advertising?
Respected historian David Starkey talks about, “A generation brought up with no rules and no religion has lurched with quasi-religious fervour into a puritanical group-think where debate is stifled and difference of opinion cannot be tolerated.”
When unintended consequences are so clearly obvious – there is no other conclusion to reach but that governments are incompetent. And the interventions in the real estate market by all three levels is proof of that.

A brand new study published in Nature Human Behavior finds that those people with the strongest views who think they know a great deal about a subject are the ones who know the least. The study’s talking about attitudes towards genetically modified foods but you’d be forgiven for thinking it applies to all sorts of issues from pipelines to free trade.
