Canada has, or had, a relatively few publicly celebrated, culturally traditional norms attached to western religious beliefs.  But we are quickly losing these touchstones because we are also quickly becoming a minority in Canada.  Many of us do want our familiar country back...but the reality is that we cannot afford to have more than 1 or 2 children.  This lack of affordability for offspring is the issue we never seem to have time for...nor do we have the will and support of our governments for adequate and affordable childcare, or decent wage jobs.  Many of us are being deprived of grandchildren for this reason.
