Good Morning #Canada
There is a little known reporting tool on the ##StatsCan website called Canada’s Quality of Life Hub. First proposed in 2021, and launched in 2023, it is a framework that gathers data and evidence to inform priority setting and guide decision-making in various policy areas, including the budgetary process. The Framework comprises five domains –prosperity, health, environment, society, and good governance – and two cross-cutting lenses: fairness and inclusion, and sustainability and resilience. Not enough Canadians have heard of it, and I suspect very few government policies are implemented before analyzing the impact on quality of life measurement by this tool. On a positive note, #StatsCan is looking for feedback on how to improve the hub.#CanadaIsAwesome #QualityOfLife

In that arena, we'll need sizeable positive uses of the latest tech as alternatives, or the early adopters (who are not typical slices of society) will acquire too much leverage & #power.
The good news is that as a #system that's in a far-from-equilibrium state, a phase change can be initiated from small changes in conditions. (See Margaret Meade's famous quote.)
The post-WWII era near unanimous consensus narrative of corporate employers (latest iteration of the Benevolent Dictator fallacy) being critical to a free democratic society has declined in every generation since (~20 yrs). This model now fights for a 1/4 of the support it once had.
The #network narrative is coming up from the opposite direction, already with a majority. What has yet to happen is the passing of the 'investment' phase as the driving force, which is always followed by more public & wider #QualityOfLife motives.
This is a layered effect, built up incrementally with each specific new use case or advancement. #Language skills combined with search & internet servers loaded with shared data- these '#AI #ChatBots' -is just the latest layer in the long march of human social #evolution.
