I would probably how about working towards solutions to provide those things that you want and looking at areas to cut spending on things that are less important.

Let the ######'s freeze in the dark is from the NEP days, which your attitude of indifference was coming close to. You're right the average Canadian does get by without the government giving them everything. What's your point? Ah let me guess, you're a healthy male with a good job, house family and what not, what happens if you all of a sudden get stricken with a terminal disease? Maybe you'd want the government to help you out with your hospital bills then. Get layed off in a depressed job market? Maybe you'd want some help from the government til you got on your feet.
I dunno guess I'm one of the few who wants to look out foe their fellow man. What if tomorrow oil went in the can and some who knows what mineral that only PEI possesses helped Alberta get equilization payments? We're one country and we should look out for each other.
