Thank you Mr. Ibbitson, for being a comforting voice of sanity in scary times. Your video of "This is a very good time to be a Canadian" was a reassuring, almost avuncular, voice at a dark hour, and your analyses nudge my fear responses into intellectual mode. I consider this time to be this generation's World War III, yes, as the Nazi regime was the height of patriarchy's apocalyptic horror for those times, I fear that our current battle to save the environment will be the greatest task humanity has ever, or will ever, face. I and my parents lived through WWII, in London, England, and the phrase "All we have to fear is fear itself" was nowhere near as comforting and stabilizing as your calm analyses, but where is the call to environmental arms? I see that both the quantity and especially the food-value quality of agricultural production is rapidly declining: The writing is on the wall.
