Have we ever had a Canadian government so hostile to our country?
This is infuriating. I've experienced it first hand at work. Politicians and managers making asinine decisions to either "save money" or "increase efficiency" that make NO sense and actually hinders (if not completely disrupts) ongoing research efforts (and I'm not even in climate science). The Government of Canada under the Conservatives has moved so far away from science-backed and evidence-based decision making that it's not even funny. And it's plain as day now. Just look at most of their decisions; any logical person would say, "...that doesn't make sense...", and she'd be right.

Now that we are beginning to fully understand the extent of the damage that the Conservatives have done, we as Canadians should feel cheated. I'm embarrassed for this country, and quite frankly, feel less safe in Canada than I ever have in my life.
