Our governments seem like symphorians

What is the message the Trudeau and Legault governments are sending to the public by asking a private firm like McKinsey to help solve problems in their jurisdictions?

Those who cannot solve these problems by themselves.

Despite the potbellied public service.

Belt and straps

And what do citizens think when they see their governments turn to private companies to solve these problems?

“If you can’t do the job why were you elected? »

“Why do we bother to run such a large, obese and over-inflated public service if it is so inefficient? »

“If the private sector is more efficient than the public sector in operating the machine, why are the contracts not awarded directly to the private sector? »

“Why should we pay both sides – public and private? »

Just like we had pants that were too wide, we had to buy a belt from the government to let our butts air… but that belt was so badly made that we had to buy one too. Braces in private!

are you kidding me

Imagine a business running like this…

Company X pays three full-time computer experts (pension funds, insurance, benefits, etc.) to solve its computer problems.

But when one of its computers fails, the company has to pay an outside firm to get out of the problem, because none of its experts are qualified to help it!

What do you think will happen?

Company X is laying off its professionals!

Sorrow!

In fact, the McKinsey affair, which has caused much ink to flow in both Canada and Quebec, lifts the veil on the malaise experienced by the majority of citizens…

We feel that our governments are not capable of solving our problems.

Moreover, they are unable to function properly.

They were overwhelmed.

overflowed

That the machine breaks down everywhere and that the state doesn’t have enough fingers to plug all the leaks.

Look at airports, passports, immigration, delays in the justice system, growing problems in the health care system, inflation, labor shortages in critical sectors, universities that can no longer keep up with their classes…

The state is like Charlie Chaplin In modern times !

Hit with a machine. The monster swallowed.

Basil was created to take the time to drop his toolbox on his feet.

Symphorion, Ephraim.

Monsieur Lavigeur and the porter Gustave Me and someone else.

“Yes? Did the pipe burst? Where? »

Extreme temptation

That was in the 1930s.

People do not believe that the democratic system can solve their daily problems.

So they turned to other political systems that seemed more efficient and effective to them.

When you lose faith in the institutions that are supposed to protect you, you no longer respect them.

Result: January 6, 2021 in Washington, January 8, 2023 in Brasilia.
