I think if you were confident and believed in what you're saying, you wouldn't have a pre-written complaint about people questioning what you say every other sentence of your comment.

> What the point is, change does happen, and yes for the better (I can hear the disillusioned starting to type already), and we do infact fix things in Canada.

According to most Canadians things are changing for the worse, and that's pretty obvious when you look at housing, healthcare, groceries, general affordability, etc.

> We do have a different market than the US. This is of course a good thing.

We have a far less competitive market, we have much lower wages for the same jobs, higher taxes, higher cost of living.

> We also have the second largest country on the planet, yet with only the population of California.

What does that have to do with anything? We have the richest country on the planet in terms of resources, I don't see how having more land and resources is some kind of excuse for poor performance.

> I'm sure some will want to respond here with loads of "who cares", and that's fine.

We have the worst housing market in history, we have falling per-capita GDP due to completely irresponsible levels of immigration, which is also overflowing our healthcare and justice systems. We have record youth unemployment, record homelessness and food bank usage. We have a nonstop stream of corruption scandals in the federal government. Tell me again how the government is good but good things just take time lmao.
