Today's Youth: Should the government of Canada coordinate the organization of youth groups that would encourage patriotism, good social skills, and good work habits?

The government should not coordinate the organization of youth groups to encourage patriotism, good social skills, and strong work habits. The government has enough to do regulating the economy, education, health care, law enforcement, international relations and many social services. While government officials, especially leaders, could model good ethics, teaching morality to the youth of the country is not their job. There are many people and services already in place that do this in Canadian …

…and good work habits, is to provide financial funding to those institutions that have been established to work towards the betterment of today's youth. Sporting activities, family activities, school, youth clubs, having religious affiliations; all are working towards preparing the youth for the future. The government is far too busy with its own affairs; it should not have to coordinate the encouragement of patriotism, good social skills and good work habits in the youth today.
