I certainly understand where they are coming from to form this new party, however,
We need a cohesive approach in the country, I guess first off we need to actually think of our country as a country!! We trash Americans for having little knowledge of us, but how much knowledge does the average Canadian have of his country. Toronto not knowing the rest of the country exists or at best thinks of anything else but Toronto issues. Atantic areas being forgotten, Quebec's self centered whinning, the east only knowing there's good skiing out west, the west thinking who the hell are these easterners anyway, and none of us having a clue that our country extends thousands of miles to the north, in fact most likely don't know we have 3 territories or their names....
We've go some work to do!!!
is it really this bad? are people that ignorant of canada?
I agree except, that as I also hear with Quebec politics you are talking about the glorious past..Thats fine, but you need a future outlook moreso then to talk of the glory days..
There are many more influences than just Quebec and Ontario's might...even though they have both acted very high and mighty over the course of this countries existance
The complaints of each province, like the states south of you solved a basic problem
that Canadians get too many complicated solutions to.
Heaven forbid if you copy the States' solution.
Each state has 2 senators equal to each other state no matter how big or how small.
The House is then based on population.
It's a simple answer that gets both equal attention for all. AND gives weight
to population size.
Anything else seems to be a lot of intricate tinkering leaving no one happy,
We should add one more step to that in as much as we should either directly vote for a prime minister, or the power's of the P.M. should be reduced.
As it sits now we vote for a local rep who has not power or authority and must be whipped to the P.M.'s beconing. Since the P.M. was only voted for by one riding why should he/she has so much power.
I like the platform.
