RE: Calgary Herald Thursday, January 20, 2005 Editorial Malaise extends beyond economics Canadians crave a new vision that will lift us to greatness

Canadians do crave a new vision that will lift us to greatness. This could be the reason that 50% of Canadians, 50% of Albertans, and 70% of Calgarians did not show up at the voting booth at the respective elections to choose their political leaders. The status quo for our future is not the answer. Being satisifed with using a rear view mirror or dithering, for planning our future, and using vision as to where Canada can go is not going to work and should not be an option. We have the history of innovation, exploration, communications, and compassion to look into the future, and past the horizon for progress in a Century that can be led by Canada and Canadians. We as a nation should set as goal to find a cure to cancer in the next ten years. Canada needs to be the country in the world everyone wants to turn to, for help to build or rebuild their countries into a safe homeland where every one is safe from natural disaster, war, famine, illiteracy, and intolerance. Canadian political leaders should set as a top priority to retake the international spot on the world stage with a modern military designed to take advantage of its unique set of abilities to do the best in the world at building peace and civil structures. A place we once occupied. Each Canadian child needs to have access to the high speed Internet before the end of this decade, with access to proper computers, programs, and electronic infrastructure. Canada can become a place in the world that the creative and innovative researchers in high technology, social sciences, medicine, and the arts want to come and live, to pursue their ideas for the betterment of the world. The government of Canada should encourage all post-secondary education institutions to waive the tuition fees for all PhD candidates by funding these costs Universities. Instead of pursuing the arming of space Canada should to the bottom of the oceans and set up operations to clean up the oceans and rebuild the rivers and dead zones in the seas of the world created by man. With one of the most efficient food production systems, Canada can help the hungry feed themselves, with food from the land and sea. Our past is made up doing just that around the world. We have a history of helping people to feed themselves. Create a government that is fully accessible by Canadians through E-Government, E-Democracy, E-Learning, and E-Literacy. Make this an example and centre of excellence with which to show the world how true democracy can be had, without bombs and bullets. There is no reason the 21st Century cannot have Canada at the front of the parade leading. Canada has the resources, people, and ability to do so much more.


Thank you
