Scott Gilmore: Despite our flaws and constant challenges, we live in what is arguably among the least broken countries in human history

Here is the National Post’s headline this morning: “‘Canada is broken’ says majority of Canadians”. It is the lead story and it goes on to explain that a poll by DART & Maru/Blue found that 59 per cent of Canadians believe the country is not headed in the right direction. And, 69 per cent believe the country is “broken”.

They are not alone. The OECD’s “Better Life Index” also ranks Canada as one of the best countries in the world for well-being. Their data finds us doing especially well in terms of life satisfaction, health and economics. Press freedom? Reporters Without Borders ranks us among the best. The Canadian Brand? Some indexes rank us as number five in the world. Others say we are number one. Global competitiveness? Doing great. Overall happiness? We are among the top 10 again this year.

“But the Liberals are terrible!” You have a point. And, because this is one of the healthiest democracies in the world, soon there will be a free and fair election and you can toss them out so they can be replaced by the Conservatives who will then be terrible in an entirely different way.

Canada is completely broken and more divided than ever

So the husband of Liberal Cabinet Minister Catherine McKenna and employee of a magazine that received government handouts prior to the last election tells us all is well. How very reassuring.

When the BBCNews says Canada has become a Sh**hole, due to the last 3 weeks, you know something isn't right.

Bull crap. Canada is as bad as any. Zero accountability for anything. Autocratic to the extreme. Wholly completely owned media like you.

Easy for you to say. Look who your wife is. Living off the gov't tit makes everything easier doesn't it? What a simple minded article if ever I read one. Must be nice to live in your privileged world. I'd tell you to not give up your day job. But you write for MacLean's so..😒

69% of Canadians disagree. Stop peddling propaganda. We're allowed to not like what's going on in our country.

Mr. Climate Barbie - spouse to Catherine McKenna

Anything written by SCOTT GILMORE is rendered useless or even a lie. HIS SPOUSE IS CATHERINE MCKENNA. Conflict of Interest. We no longer believe it when the false message is said over and over again.

Scott. Have you sat down with your spouse cathmckenna lately? Going to work in snowshoes? Canada is indeed broken. Listen.

This is Climate BARBIES Husband. 😂🤣😂🤣 Now this FAKE story makes sense.

Spoken like a true Ontario liberal. The country works just fine for them and their freinds in Quebec as long as the peasants in the west keep doing what they are told and paying the bills Mr. climatebarbie has a lot of reasons to want to keep things as they are

As McKenna's matrimonial lapdog one should expect his bias partisan opinions will defend the disastrous & corrupt liberal party no matter how bad things really are, but most intelligent Cdn's can see right through your bias opinions!

Now we really know that Maclean’s is a propaganda machine for the lying liberal liars

What planet are you talking about? It sure isn't this one.

69% of Canadians disagree...

Canada’s electoral system is broken when 33% of the vote yields 36 more MPs than 34% of the vote. Or when 8% of the vote yields double the representation than 16% of the vote. ProportionalRepresentation cdnpoli

Live look at the Canadian economy under Trudeau. Trains can’t run, there are ships stalled off the coast and a pandemic being overseen by a graphic designer. But Gilmour thinks Canada is doing just great, must share the same brain as his wife. LiberalHack.

You must live in Toronto right?

A refreshing and heart-warming reminder that no, Canada is not broken. Thank you, . It's irrefutable that by most international measures Canada is the best or one of the best and most free countries in the world.

Sorry, care to share the relationship between the author of this article and the federal government?

nancylmeehan But still we are broken.

It's an opinion piece from a rag that has already lost all credibility. The country is a mess and it wasn't 5 years ago... figure it out... lol

Says who?

Toronto isn't Canada. you urban elites are so out of touch. maybe more millions from Trudeau will help?

Really confused now for Canada: it was always said Canada respects the rule of law. But when the illegal blockade held the whole country hostage and so many innocent people suffered consequently, nobody would take the responsibility and no law enforcement would be executed. Why?

Propaganda..

Scooter’s wife cathmckenna getting him to write pro-government garbage. Again. scott_gilmore

What Scott Gilmore is saying is to stop crying or he'll really give us something to cry about.

What do you think he's gonna say, when the wife is part and parcel of the breakage? Worst government that's ever been inflicted. Banana republic. Agonizing.

Simple minded propaganda. Weak, very weak article.

Yeah sure.

Thank you!

Scott McKenna.

Canada Broken! HELL NO! Who here will give up their Canadian health care is my comment.

It's not the country that's broken, it's the useless leadership. Trudeau is wholly unqualified for the job and it shows. Elect a moron, get chaos, pretty simple.

Using only stats and instruments that are designed to measure the effectiveness of brainwashing. Why excluding all the legitimate measures. Canadian anti-Indigenous racism is rated as one of the worst discrimination and quality of life among developed countries.

That's why we shouldn't let Trudeau ruin the country any further TrudeauMustGo NoConfidenceMotion

🇨🇦More than half of Canadians agree Canada is broken. More than half of Canadians do not support PM Justin Trudeau. More than half of Canadians believe protesters blocking railways deserve swift action.

bourgeois is a hella drug

Hilarious. You must be appearing soon at a comedy club.

Cdnpoli Canada used to be....then JustinTrudeau came along and

So you have to go back centuries into human civilization just to prove the Canada of today is doing ok. That right there blows up your fundamental theory.

Scott Stinson: ‘It’s ruined sport.’ As Canada considers legal sports betting, there are warnings from abroadThe significant change comes in the culture itself. What happens when wagering on sporting events simply becomes a mainstream part of life? How on earth could it possibly ruin sport In the USA the State of Georgia just turned down betting on sports. High trafficking issues & filming done here increases it. Could care less if they legalize it. There’s always reputable sites if you want to gamble. I put $200 in an account and bet $10 or $20 when an event interests me. My last break between bets was 10 months.

Novel coronavirus in Canada: Here's a timeline of COVID-19 cases across the countryFlights/travel should have been stopped as soon as we were aware of virus. All about $! With spreading around world to thousands of people means more people out of work & for how long until virus under control? I need to work! Rent/bills/ dependants that need me. Shut down the flights coming from China or place everyone arriving from China into mandatory isolation for two weeks. Retest the individual for the virus in an additional 2 weeks (one month). That's history. Our Government's reluctance to treat this pandemic seriously will be consequential to its citizens. No plans, no money.
