As always, a sharp analysis of our present, dismal societal state. Your Canadian perspective rings so familiar to that of the German situation, almost cookie cutter-like. And thank you for strewing in that incredibly lucid conversation with the Belgian Statistician and Professor of Clinical Psychology, Dr. Mattias Desmet. I spent a whole day listening to Desmet's YouTube videos and constantly rewinding back to important passages (almost all of them). You deserve a wider readership. I love your mind. Greetings from Bielefeld, Germany

Yes, you are correct; the dismal state of the west is not limited to Canada, alas. Desmet is a voice that without being revolutionary hits the right note somewhere between caution and hope. Thank you for keeping in touch!

You are welcome; I found him insightful as well as reassuring and apparently, many feel he same way...reassurance as well as realism about the dire straits we find ourselves in, is a rare find.
