.GlenPearson: Our Greatest Dangers are Political | National Newswatch
One of the most profound debilitating realities of the Covid pandemic was its refusal to move off the scene and permit us to get back to normal life. It lingers still, not allowing us a clean break.
Most people read such forecasts, shake their heads in confusion, and get on with their day. Governments have no such luxury since they know that enduring financial struggles will eventually change the political equations in every country. Alignments will shift as voters grow more impatient. Canada has fared better economically than some other G20 countries.
Economists, researchers, and seasoned voices can offer strategic guidance, but if governments refuse to listen, or opposition parties care more about gaining power than economic stability through principled cooperation, ineffective politics will lead to national disruption. Look at any Canadian city and you’ll see the effects of financial elitism and poor policy. Homelessness, food insecurity, declining health services, and gender inequality are ubiquitous and without remediation. Such challenges are at ground level and will ultimately prove the undoing of politicians unless they find the courage and collaboration required to tackle such problems head-on as a country and communities.
