I think the Liberals are taking huge financial risks, Government is Unsustainable, but they also call upon our better selves to act with integrity in some painful times. This is so much better than a few years ago when we were led by a vision in which it was ok to stick it to our neighbour if you thought no one was watching.

Trudeau's thought, shared with us during 2015 campaign, that "the Conservatives are not our enemies, they are our neighbours," is a game changer.

Sometimes it occurs to me that we live in a "post-prosperity" time, at least as far as financial wealth is concerned. Sure, it hurts a little to see our children struggling a little where it seemed easier for us, but continuation of that ever onward and upward thing is not something that the world can afford, and nor can our neighbours, if we are climbing on their backs.

Government may be unsustainable, but it does offer hope.
