I'm in Canada and I work for the government lol
Are you afraid of yourself? Half of your brain might be trying to oppress the other half.
I'm afraid sometimes that a new government will get elected and ruin my job. I see lots of this happening in provincial governments where a new conservative government comes in and immediately starts gutting government operations. I work in a science area and the last time the conservatives ran the country they gutted science funding in a way that we're still recovering from.
