Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and have a productive, happy New Year everyone!
This is likely to be my last blog until the new year arrives, so I apologize for my recent inactivity and my week off. Its been busy the past few days, I've been putting together a group based out of facebook that will be working year round to end poverty by hosting fundraising drives and demonstrations to obtain greater public and government awareness to the problem. Its my hope that we can start making a difference in the lives of the people who have to live in poverty, because in a nation as rich and powerful as our own, no one should have to worry about where their next meal comes from, and no one should worry about survival.
Down in America, the United States Senate has finally passed a bill that would insure an additiona thirty million citizens and would prevent insurance companies from ending coverage if you actually need to use it. This is a monumental bill, one that does what all politics should do, and that is to help the people that we are supposed to represent. It is not a perfect bill, but what it does is help the least fortunate and give them the safety net they need in order to survive and get back on their feet, the same kind of big, sweeping proposal that Canadians need to fulfill to bring our poor, huddled masses back into society and have them live in dignity.
Merry Christmas everyone, enjoy this special time of year and may glad tidings follow you on your journey throughl life.
