Rex is listening in on callers for his Cross Country Checkup program. In the short trip to the corner store I heard Canadians mention the election and death of Jack Layton, a Vancouver man interested in the buying up of properties by Asians (particularly Chinese, was that you Dumpy?), and a man from Victoria who thought the class focus in society as exemplified by the Occupy movement, and to some extent the Arab Spring, and the push-back against the economic model of constant capitalistic growth.
So, what is your story of the year? For me it's the Arab Spring. Brutal and barbaric dictators, and high youth unemployment. A recipe for revolution. Will it be a secular change, or more like the Iranian revolution? Time will tell.
