I think it's fair to say that any government can be messy. Certainly, the citizens have to keep a watchful eye on them. I remain hopeful that with the savings realized by no longer funding the royals, the CBC, and selling off most of their assets, we can improve the lot of average Canadians. Call it a more responsible way of spending taxpayer's money.
