Truly great things are rarely achieved alone – or easily.
Whether in our private lives or in business, our greatest achievements are made in coordinated effort with others. This is especially true for long-term projects, the ones that take vision and commitment beyond the latest quarterly report.
I am not a member of a political party. I recognize the importance of elections, participate in election campaigns (including canvassing and raising money for good candidates), and engage heavily in election-related debates (like the detailed critique of the Harper government’s economic record I co-authored, with Jordan Brennan, for Unifor).
The clearest outcome of this historic federal election was an overwhelming call from Canadians for a change in government, and a change in direction for our country. The Liberals have been tasked with delivering progressive change.
But achieving real, lasting change is never easy – and it cannot start and stop at a ballot box.
