Canada sits at a hinge point of history, and we will need to reimagine the country to deal with our new reality, and it is bewildering that every party, and every leader, is pitching tax cuts. Our would-be leaders need to rise higher to meet the moment. www.thestar.com/politics/pol...
Bruce Arthur: Canada’s next leader needs a bold vision to reimagine the country itself — but no one is meeting the moment
