We have a serious unemployment crisis in this country that is particularly affecting young Canadians. The unemployment rate has been continuously going up over the last three years. It has now hit 7.1%, but the youth unemployment rate is really at catastrophic levels, at 14.5%. Many young people are desperately looking for jobs and are unable to find them.

In today’s world, this tension plays out across continents. Economic insecurity often fuels nationalist movements, which promise protection and identity but risk deepening divisions. At the same time, socialist ideas gain traction where people demand fairness, inclusion, and solidarity beyond borders. The way societies manage migration and poverty will determine whether cooperation or exclusion becomes the dominant story of our time.

My grand parents left in the 40's and 50s, went to the UK and now we live in NZ. There is a complete disconnect between the old and new as well as the fact that assimilation simply isnt necessary because you can access all the culture (music, family/social connetion) on your phone. Previously you needed to integrate in order to survive; now life is more hermetic and as a result less integration occurs out of necessity.
