Letters, Sept 15
Building for the future It’s hard to argue with Tom Brodbeck’s column Carney cashes in standing to U.S. bully, Free Press, Sept. 12, because everything in the article makes sense. […]
This newsletter from September 15 discusses various topics including Prime Minister Mark Carney's policies, the September 11 terrorist attacks, and the need for transparency in Canadian public institutions.
Prime Minister Carney's policies, as outlined in the Free Press article from September 12, are seen as beneficial for Canada's future once the current political situation improves. Canadians are expected to adapt and support those in need during the transition.
The September 11 terrorist attacks are emphasized as a clear-cut Islamic terrorist attack, with nineteen men acting in the name of jihadist ideology and directed by al-Qaeda. The author expresses disappointment that September 11 is often treated as a vague national trauma rather than a specific event with a named cause.
Regarding transparency in Canadian public institutions, the author argues that they should operate more like successful technology companies. Successful tech companies have systems in place for disclosing vulnerabilities and collaborating with the public to improve their products. In contrast, Canadian public institutions appear less open and collaborative in their IT operations.
The author suggests that public institutions, which handle sensitive data and provide essential services, should adopt a more transparent and collaborative approach to better protect citizens and deliver improved services.
