Sorry guys but I can’t get over it, I mean the idea that wanting to know root causes is something anyone can be attacked for. My entire adult professional life has been devoted to understanding stories that shape people’s lives, in a search for root causes. But look, there is a bright side to this extraordinary attack from Stephen Harper on Justin Trudeau. What could be more helpful in searching for root causes than this confession from Harper? Now we know why Harper hates science. It searches for root causes. Now we know why he is so afraid of science. Because science goes where the evidence goes. It will not be restrained by an existing story. Harper does not want to go where the evidence might challenge his existing story. That is what ideology means. It means believing in an existing story that must not be changed by experience, and so experience must be contained. Thank you Mr. Harper for at last giving us some insight to the root causes of your need to bully and to your paranoia about being human. it must be torture to live trying to control everything and watching the attempt crumble.
