Quit making everything have to be in both French and English!! - It should only be in areas where it is of equal (or close to) bilingualism.

      Not quite sure what you mean here.  Only things that are in both French and English are products, and my tax dollars don't pay for private companies.


Stop giving tax credits to every shitty TV show that comes along. I think all Canadian shows are receiving tax credits.

         Sort of Agree

Legalize marijuana and sell it through the government. And no, I'm not some tree hugging leftist hippie. This could save money through all the people we wouldn't have to jail and put through the courts, and then it would generate more revenue and therefore make less taxes to be paid.

Agree, Marijuana is 6 billioin dollar a year industry in BC alone.

I never saw that French/English stuff back in BC either....there were alot of Asian/english signs tho.....but when i moved to ottawa for school, shit its everywhere.....all signs on everythin have to be in both languages.  Then i went to quebec and everythin is in french.....theres no english anywhere to be seen.  that doesnt make any sense, we're promoting the biligualism all over the rest of the country? but Quebec is too good for that?

I think the money the govt gives to Canadian musicians and shows etc is good....promotes a canadian culture...prevents us from being too assimilated to the U.S.  (well...in theory anyways,  90% of what i'd watch on tv is american.....basically just Hockey Night in Canada (man i miss hockey) )

and Yea, i think Legalization is a good idea also....it would certainly help the Bc Economy, and Law enforcement could focus on other stuff instead.  I dont know the details, but Amsterdam doesnt seem to have a problem with it.
