In my latest Epoch Times column I ask how it is possible that as the Canadian federal public service swells up like a dirigible, it can’t find someone to process expense claims from soldiers we sent to Poland then told to buy their own meals.

“It is the peasants who preserve all traditions of the sites of battles or the building of churches. It is they who remember, so far as anyone remembers, the glimpses of fairies or the graver wonders of saints. In the classes above them the supernatural has been slain by the supercilious. That is a true and tremendous text in Scripture which says that ‘where there is no vision the people perish.’ But it is equally true in practice that where there is no people the visions perish.”
