Melanie in Saskatchewan has an important message to share with the Elbows Up crowd:
To Mark Carney & Those Applauding Him:
I am a Canadian paying for a country that doesn’t include me.
I live in the part of the country your map forgets.
About 2,600 kilometres from the nearest stop on your proposed $90 billion train.I am an overtaxed, under-served Canadian.
I heat my home with rising costs.
I fill my vehicle at almost $2 a litre, depending on the day and my luck.
I watch a country with 163 billion barrels of oil behave like it’s on a meagre allowance.And you want me to pay for a train I will never use.
How thoughtful.
