I think this is something that should be reflected in that budget. leaving 5 or less years to deal with this problem afting adding 160+ billion dollars to debt and who knows how much in bond repayment requirements is totally iresponsible. If that government can't be forward looking it shouldn't be issueing bonds on that time frame --- its budget should have a plan to the maximum bond issue available! It is a looming crisis that can't be expected to be solved in 5 years. Canadians have 9. The current model doesn't work and the longer this is held off the harder and more extreme this will need to be. Edited February 17, 2011 by William Ashley Quote I was here.
Mr.Canada Posted February 17, 2011 Report Posted February 17, 2011 (edited) http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/opinions/editorials/dont-let-canada-be-jailed-for-debt/article1910537/ government still isn't addressing the aging boomers problem. The Liberals had 13 years to address it. What have they done? Every problem we have doesn't need to be solved by the government.

It is a looming crisis that can't be expected to be solved in 5 years. Canadians have 9. The current model doesn't work and the longer this is held off the harder and more extreme this will need to be. normal behaviour for any government...avoid at all costs doing the unpleasant but necessary, getting re-elected and getting that juicy personal pension is all that really matters...

Unlike youngfellows like Jean Chretien, Paul Martin........... who left us the highest national debt. Quote
