Sadly, I believe that our governments, both the politicians and their bureaucratic minions, learned virtually nothing,

The national debt is still growing at an abysmally astronomic rate, monies are being spent abroad that should be spent at home, politicians are still following the climate change holy grail trying to outdo their peers by agreeing to impossible goals, etc., etc.

Politicians are attacking the middle rich (who by the way create most of the jobs in Canada) to attract votes the next election while letting the really rich (i.e. trust fund babies) get away with paying virtually no taxes while contributing nothing to the economy.

Did we learn anything, sadly no.
