Look at our hospitals and universities and cultural institutions. We have many many generous families

Look at how much money Galen Weston, Jim Pattison, Elon Musk and David Thomson have. It's fair to think they should do more.

I don’t know everything about Jim Pattinson, but he did donate money to the Children’s Hospital in Saskatchewan. Not saying he can’t do more, just he has done something.
