Provincially here in Alberta hundreds of millions of dollars can be allocated to carbon capture projects that technically work but do nothing to solve the underlying problem while charities that address sexual assault or housing and can demonstrate clear societal benefits get funding cuts.

One of the great injustices of our time is that non-profits & charities must succeed 100% of the time in order to get meagre crumbs from the government. No room for innovation, no room for taking risks. And yet, the tech sector is like "MAKE CARS FLY?! MAYBE?!" & get flooded with government funding.
