I like your reflection here. The world turns whatever our decisions, yet they have such an influence on what type of world keeps turning.

Yes, unfortunately our election results didn’t turn up my hope dial. We went from a majority Liberal government to a minority Liberal government. I’ve been telling myself to be grateful that the Conservatives didn’t get to form the next government (in either a majority or minority position). The party with the most solid strategies for global warming, the Green Party, has advanced from one seat to three (sigh).
Of course only time will tell if there is any effective cooperation between the parties or just politicized squabbling.

A very poetic take on your election result in Canada. It may seem Trudeau can learn from the safe call? At least you have kept the climate change deniers out.

Thank you, Denis. I was very disappointed by Trudeau’s last term. On the one hand he says he is on board to address climate change and on the other hand we still subsidize the oil industry and under his lead the government purchased the trans mountain pipeline! His government is a minority government, holding more seats than any other party but the Conservative party is not far behind. So to get legislation through, the Liberals will need support from other parties such as the Conservatives, NDP (left of center or Bloc Québécois. The Greens only have 3 seats. ‘Interesting’ times to come.

That is a much clearer outline of the result than anything I read here. Thanks for the update Janice and GOOD LUCK Canada.
