You know, I hear constantly, “No one watches 10-minute videos. It needs to be short! People don’t want to bother with complex ideas.”
And then I go to an event with people like Andrew Lawton and Aaron Gunn, and on a Monday night we talk for a few hours with folks about economic liberty and the concentration of power in the PMO.
These two things cannot be true at the same time.
I spoke with one woman who is worried about how centralized our economy is becoming around government decisions.
As a farmer and businessman from Saskatchewan, I completely understand what she’s worried about.
Canadian freedom and economic opportunity rest with individuals making their own decisions, free from government overreach.
In my time sitting in Parliament, I’ve seen more and more of the economy and economic decisions being concentrated in the hands of a few politicians in Ottawa.
Freedom is never more than one generation from being extinguished, and I think it’s important that we have these conversations and keep having them.
I’m working on a project along these lines that I’m really excited to share with you.
Leave a comment if you’re also worried about the decline of economic freedom in this country and the re-emergence of centralized government planning.
