Privatize the CBC - seriously, why should my family's tax dollars go toward a station we barely watch? DISAGREEScrap the gun registry - what a fucking waste of 2 billion dollars. AGREED.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. DISAGREE.Abolish the Senate - they haven't rejected a bill in over 50 years. Strictly ceremonial and wasteful. Only Senator I respect is Anne Cools. AGREEAbolish the Governor General and all Lieutenant Governors. Again, wasteful and strictly ceremonial. AGREEStop giving tax credits to every shitty TV show that comes along. I think all Canadian shows are receiving tax credits. AGREECrack down on people using tax dollars for their own personal vacation, eg) Sheila Copps and Adrienne Clarkson. AGREEAllow for private delivery of health care, but only if it's made publicly available. This will make it more efficient and therefore less expensive to the taxpayers. DISAGREEQuit making new seats in the House of Commons! These MPs are already making $110,000 a year and there's 308 (!) of them. We don't need anymore. AGREEQuit giving tax dollars to political parties so that they can sway you with their propaganda. Make them raise their own money. (The US should adopt this too.) AGREELegalize 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. DISAGREE, RATHER MA HOMIES GET MONEY THAN GOVTSpeaking of jail, cut back on all the programs and benefits they get in there. Those wastes of society should quit getting free education and decent living condition. They did the crime, PUNISH THEM. CANT APPLY BROAD STATEMENTS TO THIS ISSUE.I'll think of more.
I agree with pretty much all of those suggestions.Also:Treat Natives like any other Canadian, everyone should be equal.Scrap the C.P.P.Fund the military properly or scrap the whole thing. A half-ass military is pretty much useless.
I disagree with privatization because straight up I come from the bottom. Public housing and all that, so I could care less if all these middle class mofos are gettin taxed, as long as I still have the benefits i can get
