Canadian welfare pays $3 to bureaucrats for every $1 given to recipients. That's exactly the kind of irrationality it would be a pleasure to see swept away. I'm a huge proponent of this scheme Who in Canadian politics is actually advocating it? The article mentions Hugh Segal. This is not someone with much power. So I guess my question is, of those advocating it, who has the most power? If nothing else, it would be a counterexample to the principles that nothing in Canadian politics ever changes or is ever interesting. Hey, we could even call it Worthwhile Canadian Initiative!
