Yesterday, social media was bustling with discussions about the election;
today, everything has suddenly fallen silent.
Many believe that voting can bring about real change.

But have we truly reflected on this:
What is the real meaning of voting?
If the act of voting itself carries inherent limitations, why do we place so much faith in it?
We all hope to see a better Canada.
But what truly constitutes a better future for this country?

When we shift from political apathy to suddenly engaging in political discussions,
are we genuinely equipped with the necessary knowledge and understanding?
Are we aware that, in matters of politics, economics, and governance, we still have much to learn?

The most dangerous ignorance is not knowing that we are ignorant.
Without reflection and awareness, blind participation can only lead to collective misjudgment and eventual failure.

Economics forms the foundation of a society; politics is merely its superstructure.
If we fail to understand the foundation, any idealistic political structure becomes nothing more than a castle in the air.
And to truly grasp economics, financial literacy and investment understanding are indispensable barriers we must cross.

Unfortunately, many people still operate at the level of “stock speculation, guessing, and prediction.”
If financial markets could be mastered through mere guesses, then everyone would be an economist, everyone a market genius.
But reality proves otherwise.

True expertise in any field is built through the accumulation of time and the crucible of failures.
Without enough time, and without the willingness to endure and reflect upon failure, genuine wisdom cannot be attained.
Growth is always born under pressure.
Without being pushed to the extreme, true wisdom will not emerge.

Similarly, reforms, transformations, and revolutions are born when society is pushed to its limits — when extremes provoke inevitable change.
As Canadians, we indeed need reform.
But the prerequisite is this: We must first cultivate our own wisdom.

Slogans and emotional outbursts do not create real change.
Real change starts from diligent, grounded action.

We must each ask ourselves:
What value have I created for Canada?
What wealth and contribution have I brought to this society?

We must commit to daily, concrete efforts — quietly building and creating real value.
When each of us genuinely prioritizes creating value for society and placing collective interests above personal gain,
when we truly treat Canada as our home,
only then will we have the wisdom and strength to change our nation — and our future.

Let us strive forward together.
