Where did we go wrong?
It’s not just us!
Seven
behaviours
driving
discontent
Wealth without Work
Pleasure without Conscience
Knowledge without Character
Science without Humanity
Hiroshima,
August
1945,
survivors
of the first
use of
nuclear
weapons
Commerce without Morality
The market
needs
Rules and
Regulations!
Worship without Sacrifice
Politics without Principles
Gandhi’s 1925 diagnosis is true of our times!
Gandhi’s Remedy:
understand the suffering of others
give wing to the fallen
abandon ego and pride
serve the divinity within all
Do we brag we’re
“best in the world?”
Or aspire
to something
more worthy?
A new Alberta Aspiration:
Being the best for the world
The best Alberta is built on. . .
 Freedom from fear
 Freedom from want
 Living together in community
with dignity
 In harmony with one another,
 . . . And with the natural world
And it starts with you . . .
. . . when you speak truth to
Power
. . . with the courage of your convictions
So how do you know you’re right?
Because your values
speak to our values
