"Mineral exploitation is nowadays attacked by researchers having shown a
link between the abundance of natural resources (particularly minerals
and oil) of a country and its poor growth performance, as well as poor
governmental policies and institutions (corruption, weak governance,
rent-seeking, plunder). This seems especially true for 'point source'
minerals such as mine and oil fields, which produce high value for few
people, as opposed to agricultural diffuse development which involves
large quantities of workers forcing a share of benefits"
They're talking about Peru,
but it sounds like Canada.
So much oil, gas, minerals, uranium, trees are extracted from Canada
So much fucking money
and it just lines the pockets of the government and a few rich people
No Canadian who was born in Canada, of any color or gender or race
Should have to go into debt for healthcare or education
All Canadians should be getting a fully subsidized education
we should have the best healthcare in the world and we DON'T
All Canadians should have childcare and ALL canadians should have multiple chances to get their CREDIT back. Canadians aren't getting credit or any means to build credit.
We have money
all the government debt is a fabrication to keep us paying for what we should be getting as inherent value from our resource extraction.
