Build Canada - Options

Send us Fan MailComfort feels great, easy and simple. But as the old adage proves, success and opportunity are found outside your comfort zone. For several decades Canada has chosen to be complacent, comfortable and dormant. We’ve lost our way, from a nation of builders, adventures, explores and innovators, to a couch potato collection of dependasaurus and whiners. We wanted a better world, we chastised those who did things we disagreed with, but then returned to our comfortable couches in our rent stabilized apartment. The landlord just jacked the rent.There are a number of brilliant position papers published at Build Canada, a collection of proud Canadians who believe that we are at a pivotal moment in our history, one of opportunity, the potential to return to greatness. I invite every Canadian to read them, consider the options and contribute to the conversationI believe that if we support independent journalism, accept personal responsibility for our outcomes, build our communities and learn to discuss the hard issues that we will begin the transformation to a resilient society, dependant on each other. I challenge Canadians to attend community events, raise the flag on your home, meet the neighbours, get healthy and have those hard conversations on where you see this nation moving. Ideas create societies, they are fostered collectively, so get together in your little slice of this nation, build up those around you, take care of yourself and together we will do what is within our control to create a resilient society.This is indeed a pivotal time for our great nation. We can stand up and fight to build a resilient and independent nation, or we can lose what little we have left. We did this to ourselves, by being complacent. Whatever the outcome, it will be our fault, so choose wisely.Support the showhttps://preparednesslabs.ca/
