We have yet another example of the conservatives having only short term gain and quick profits on their mind. Turner and the liberals were right when they said that we have been building this country east to west for a century plus, and that we should have continued doing so. And now we are seeing Turner's predictions coming true, and a conservative sold us the fuck out and took the easy way Instead of nation building.

If for no other reasons at all I think Canadians should vote Liberal for these two stances from their 2021 platform:

  • 0 or lower emissions by 2050

I think climate change is a much more immediate concern than most people realize, there simply is no excuse to throw the future away over lesser social concerns.

  • Taxing people who make more than 49k a Minimum non-deductible 15%, as a method of preventing the use of loopholes to pay 0% effective rates by the wealthiest of Canadians.

I think the 49k Canadian Dollars is a bit low for the bar to be, but if it taxes the rich then everyone below the 1% gains more from this policy than they lose.

But I'm not Canadian. Ya'll do you.
