Re: "Challenging welfare," Jan. 27.

Social Development Minister Stephanie Cadieux has declined to participate in the welfare challenge because, as she claims, "she doesn't believe there's anything to be learned from it."

Kudos to Premier Christy Clark for appointing a woman with such a marked learning disability to such a high posting in government. I wonder if the widow with two kids you profiled in the article would learn anything new were they to suddenly find they were living on upwards of $100,000 per year that her ministers draw down on.
