A Bad Model...A Local Solution
As financial and economic systems in Canada and elsewhere imploded in the last year,
the media called it “the end of capitalism”. The crisis has also signaled a fundamental
values shift, as consumers and business owners questioned an economic model spinning
out of control. Emerging from this crisis can mean something other than going back to
the old system. We can create a new economic model – one that respects vital
resources, creates wealth for communities and turns a profit.
