Madam Speaker, I have been contemplating a lot about conflict and how it is being acted out in our communities, our country and across the world. I am reading a book by Amanda Ripley called High Conflict. It talks about breaking free from the destructive cycle of conflict we are seeing in so many places around the world and really focusing on constructive approaches to disagreement, which focus more on improving relationships and decreasing destructive, divisive conflicts.
The member is talking about a utopia that he thinks is somehow going to magically happen. I am wondering if the process of his analysis of this really speaks to any of this, such as looking at how to bring people together, how to have meaningful conflict and how to learn from one another as opposed to just using slogans, which create a high conflict that does not get resolved.
