The worst problem in Canada

In Neil Reynolds’ article, “The incredible shrinking country”, he discusses how Canada suffers from population going down. The author worries about Canada’s population, and he wants to handle this problem. In addition, Canada has civilization worthy of preservation. The author mentions that the immigrants will not help much Canada’s population. Also, he worried about Spain, Greece, and Italy. The country will spend a lot of money to encourage women to have more babies.

We have three ways to handle this problem; the Canadian government should encourage people to marriage at an early age, the Canadian government should make an advantage for people who have more than three babies, and the Canadian government should make lectures about how this country is in the worst problem.

First, the Canadian government should encourage people to marry at an early age, because many people now marry at a late age. For example, when people marry at an early age they can have four or more than four, and they can manage their children before they get old. As we know the marriage at an early age has benefits for people more than the government. One of these benefits, when they have children in an early age is that the children can help them to do some tasks and helped them when they get old. For example, my father married in early age, he could see the grandchildren and we helped my father in many things. My older brother picked me up when I was in middle school instead of my father. Finally, marriage at an early age has advantage for people and governments.

Moreover, the Canadian government should make an advantage for people who have more than three babies, because we know when we have children we should have money to take care of our children. For example, the children need education and the education requires money to buy school’s materials. As we know this life requires a lot of hard work to survive in it. So, when the government makes advantages for people to have babies people will have children. For example, when the government gives salary for people who have four children or more, that will encourage people to get babies. Finally, the main reason for people not to have children is the economic reason; when the government solves this problem, the population will grow.

Third, the Canadian government should make lectures about how this country in the worst problem because most of the residents do not know how this problem is dangerous in the future or maybe some people do not have any idea about this problem. So, the government should educate citizens by giving them lectures on television. For example, the government can make a competition or program on how we can solve and handle this problem. After that, people will have an idea and they will feel as the government felt. Finally, everyone in the world likes to help her/his country; sometimes they do not know problems or maybe they do not know how dangerous this problem will be in the future.

In conclusion, this problem is one that many countries suffer from. The citizens should marry at an early age as they can. It is very important for people who take care of his/her country to write articles about what problem the country faces. The government and citizens all have responsibilities for their country. They should help each other to face this problem.
