Who are We, Politically
Currently we are nothing. We are not even real; we are just an “idea.” We are just a “feeling,” or a “thought.” It could be the thought of any Canadian—rich or poor, liberal or conservative, man, woman, (or others), immigrant or born here. It could be anybody. It could be you, or it could be not you.
But whatever it is, hear us out—hear this thought, this feeling, and this idea, and judge for yourselves who we are. And know this: if you feel what we feel, and if you think what we think, then you could be part of this idea—perhaps even help build it. Because the idea is still nascent.
People are not Idiots, Politicians Make Them So
You, me, them—everybody—we are people. We cannot call ourselves idiots. Nor can I call you an idiot, or you call me an idiot. Yes, deficiencies exist; some are bad, some worse, some even evil. But we still have to forge ahead, considering the massiveness of the task we have taken on.So let us say we are only a dysfunctional association, just like the other big parties—prone to the same idiosyncrasies the other parties might have.
But the difference is in clarity. The difference is in conviction.
The difference is in having truthful beliefs—not noble causes, because no one believes a politician anymore, including us. We have now become the same thing we hated.
So there is no point in saying we are here to save this, save that, or work for this and work for that—no one is going to believe us. Perhaps they are right: we don’t have the competence, we cannot be trusted, we might change ourselves later. No one cares (about us).But listen to this thought, this feeling, this idea:
Maybe we have a chance if we come together.
Why we are doing this,
Why Canada is Important to us
