- We cannot put all of this on the shoulders of our governments. They cannot afford to pay billions more owing to government deficits and significant debt levels. They can’t simply raise taxes which would make Canada uncompetitive on the global stage. - Our political ecosystem is not optimized to solve all of this.
- We need the charity sector to thrive. Generous Canadians (and grant-making foundations + businesses) play an important role in supporting the charitable sector.
- Improvements are not happening voluntarily. We need to force the solutions which we seek via systemic changes, based in federal policies, regulations, and laws.
- The good news is we have enough resources in the charity sector, with billions of dollars flowing each year. We just need to make some smarter decisions about how we apply a fraction of the funds to solve the problems.
This is the focus of GIV3, as one agent-for-change.
