It's Election Time!

 Another election, 2 years ahead of schedule? Why now? Well, that is obvious, the Liberals see their opportunity in a weak opposition and successful vaccine rollout to win a majority. That is fine and quite logical. The real issue is that while the Liberal talk about our problems, they do not act decisively. We are no longer living in a time where 1/2 measures will now. Being nice and trying no longer count. BC is on fire. The prairie farmers are in severe drought and having to cull their cattle for lack of feed. Species keep going extinct. Rivers keep on drying up around world [look up what is happening in poor Iraq]. Human beings are still narcissistically self absorbed on their little problems [yes, Covid-19 is relatively a small problem when compared with the Climate Disaster and Species Extinction] and still think "growing the economy" with more stuff consumed and more people doing so will magically make all our problems go away.

We know better. Only when we shift to an economy and value system that has learned to live within the limits provided by the renewable resources of the Earth/Sun do our children have a hope of having a happy and healthy quality of life. 

Now, more than ever, in spite or maybe even because of the "sillyness" happening within the Greens, is the time to stick to what we know: without a strong Green voice on Parliament Hill 'Business as Usual" will continue, with the then inevitable pain when Nature tells us, in her rather forceful and painful way, STOP!

We have a choice, as always, to think for the short term or the long term. The Greens are still the only part that is thinking for the long term. So, no matter our faults, we are still the only Strategic thinkers in town who will face the harsh truth that EVERYTHING about how we live has to change. But remember the key to this - THE CHANGE WILL BE FOR THE BETTER!
