This is so insightful and good. I thought maybe it was just agriculture who had all these programs for “young” people that went up to like 45 cause the farm population is declining so fast. I didn’t give much consideration that this really is in so many spaces & why that is. The ongoing infantilization, consumption, and then using all this to prevent “youth” from rocking the boat. If I didn’t already want to scream today after all the JT takes, I certainly do now.

That was a brilliant article. The amazing thing I see in social media is there is veritable horde of people that do not realize they are in a class war and do not know which side they are on.

Thanks again Nora, your insights are always appreciated. I am 58 almost 59, I was arrested protesting free-trade & other Predatory capitalist policies but after watching what happens to the Truth these days have considered just giving up.

The NeoFacists are controlling the narrative & progressives are to busy fighting among themselves to care.

Poilievre will be a disaster for Cda & they'll blame Trudeau just as they've blamed him for the result of Harper's Legacy

Canadians have somehow missed the post & are now handing the nation back to a regime hell bent on dismantling what's left of our social democracy.

People already can't afford healthcare but Trudeau broke his promise on electoral reform & created massive debt (which doesn't actually matter).

Austerity for the masses will pay for deregulation & more tax cuts.

Pierre has made it clear he will gut Cda like a Cod & the majority cam survive on the entrails because Trudeau.

Well written synopsis of a generation that needs to fulfill a mature role in society. .. though..

I am left with a darker thought .. Trump will benefit those who sit atop the economy.

This is the worst aspect of populism.
