Here are your answers compared to this voter’s answers.
Social › LGBT Adoption Rights
5>5 Personal answerYes, but I think they should have to go through more of a thorough process to see if it is a good idea. I don't think every same-sex couple should be automatically permitted to adopt. Are they in a long-term, very stable and loving relationship? Are they going to provide a balanced view of the sexes - nothing wrong with being gay, but are they going to raise the child in a home that reveres both sexes. Are they adopting the child for the child's sake or for theirs? |

Elections › Prime Minister Term Limits
5>5 Personal answerYes, and limited to three terms |
Crime › Parole Hearings
5>5 Personal answerIt depends - Take it on a case by case basis. What were the circumstances of the murder - is the prisoner likely to re-offend? Were there multiple victims? If it was particularly brutal and planned, then no parole should be granted. Perhaps after 15 yrs, if it wasn't horrific (though I would think every 1st degree is) they could get some small benefit while still incarcerated - more time outside, better food, more tv or visiting privileges, books, computer time, socialization - but only if they have earned through exemplary behaviour after 15 yrs, some sort of benefit like those ones. |

the Economy › Income Splitting
5>5 Personal answerYes, but cap the maximum benefit at $2k |
the Economy › Bitcoin
5>5 Personal answerToo early to make a decision like that. Wait and see how bitcoin catches on. I know it is starting to with some businesses but not as much yet with the general public. Let's postpone that decision for now. |
the Economy › Pension Premiums
5>5 Personal answerNo, higher premiums would encourage businesses to hire fewer workers and negatively affect the economy |
Domestic Policy › Long Form Census
5>5 Personal answerYes, but it should only be required every 5 years |
Domestic Policy › Copyright
5>5 Personal answerLet the free market, instead of the government, decide |
Transportation › Commercial Drones
