Statistics Canada report: For 1st time, Canada has more seniors than children | CTV News

There you have it folks... the fuse on the Canadian demographic bomb has now been lit. Just think, within 15 years there will only be two working taxpayers for every retired person. So get your health care while you can because pretty soon the government is going to only be able to afford to offer its citizens a 'merciful death' instead of the expensive medical procedures we'll need to keep us alive. Isn't it a wonderful thing that we've just made it possible for the government to do this through the legalization of euthanasia? Just think of all the money the government is going to save!!


Think I'm being a touch too extreme in my prediction? Just remember that the only thing separating us from this dire fate is a politician's promise not to do it. Pretty thin gruel to bet our life on imho.

All good things must come to an end

Well, it's been a hell of a ride, laying rubber all over the road for the past decade. But it's time to call it a day and park the Rogue in the garage. Effective today, I am shutting down my blog to focus my attention on other endeavours. My thanks to the more than 2.7 million people who regularly joined me on these sojourns through news stories over the years that dealt with the places with issues of religion and faith intersecting with public affairs. May God bless you with a continuing desire to learn about and help disseminate the issues of faith throughout the public square. Happy trails in your continuing travels! Fr. Tim Moyle, p.p.
