I have provided the links to an article that was written by Gwynne Dyer back in July 2016 and also of a recent lecture he gave at the University of Regina.
After one week in office President Trump has moved in a frightening direction.
In Trump’s head its okay to tear up trade agreements and insist that all the jobs that have been lost in the U.S. due to out-sourcing and immigration.
Now President Trump thinks himself quite the business man as well. If this were true then he would surely know that how we do business worldwide has changed as dramatically as it has due to technology in the last 25 years or so and not the out-sourcing that has gone on and certainly not by people immigrating to North America.
In fact having people move to North America has in fact assisted in the growth of our economy here in Canada and in the U.S. as well. This is a proven fact and Canada has displayed this time and again.
Canada does indeed have her issues, still there is an awareness to do better and to grow as a collective.
I would encourage anyone who is reading this post to please take the time to watch the lecture which is close to two hours in length and read some of Mr. Dyer’s articles. It is well worth it.
I have also provided standard definitions for democracy and dictatorship.
One of the things that is truly frightening is Trump’s desire to ‘control’ the internet.
Freedom to information is difficult enough and in these times our best defense is to stay informed of the facts and not the hype that Trump is spewing.
Let’s go about our daily lives informed and united.
Peace!
