Here are your answers compared to this voter’s answers.
Social › Abortion
8>8 Personal answerPro-choice, I believe it is the woman's choice, and the pro-life argument, although reasonable to an extent, there is not enough support for the mother or the child currently for pro-life to be considered. |
Social › Gay Marriage
8>8 Personal answerYes |
Social › LGBT Adoption Rights
8>8 Personal answerYes, as long as they pass the same background checks as straight couples |
the Economy › Taxes
8>8 Personal answerLower the income tax rate and remove all existing tax loopholes for large corporations |
the Environment › Environmental Regulation
8>8 Personal answerYes, but root regulations with actual science, instead of seemingly random numbers to hit pre-determined targets without understanding the industries. Canada is currently one of if not the most regulated carbon markets in the world, but our own country treats it as if we are one of the worst. |
Domestic Policy › Gun Control
8>8 Personal answerNo, but close loopholes being able to bring guns into the country |
Healthcare › Healthcare Funding
8>8 Personal answerYes, but make it so certain things currently excluded for everyone in a federal system has access, examples being dental care, physical therapy, etc. |
the Economy › Minimum Wage
8>8 Personal answerYes and no, the minimum wage should be a 'livable wage' (i.e., relatively poor but able to get along) which I believe the current $15/hr coming into effect will achieve. |
Healthcare › Dental Coverage
8>8 Personal answerYes |
Healthcare › Healthcare Privatization
8>8 Personal answerMore, keep current public system but make room for a non-subsidized private system (absolutely 0 government funding other than potentially for strictly research), which can relieve pressure on the public system and provide those with the means to 'skip the line' should they be able to afford it. |
Foreign Policy › United Nations
8>8 Personal answerYes |
Education › Student Loan Debt
8>8 Personal answerNo, but significantly reduce the interest rate and increase the grace period of student loans. If the government forgives student loans, they should also give those that were responsible enough to either pay them off, or work during their post-secondary education to pay for their studies $20,000 as well. This is not fair to those that were responsible during their early adult years. |
the Environment › Plastic Product Ban
8>8 Personal answerNo, but increase taxes for creating non-biodegradable plastics slowly and increase biodegradable product tax incentives to phase them out as much as possible. |
Immigration › Deporting Criminal Immigrants
8>8 Personal answerYes |
Domestic Policy › Native Funding
8>8 Personal answerNo, instead of monetary funds, we should instead offer assistance in the form of education, training, and social programs |
Immigration › Muslim Immigrant Ban
8>8 Personal answerNo, banning immigrants based on their religion is unconstitutional |
the Environment › Renewable Energy
8>8 Personal answerYes, by offering private citizens (e.g., homeowners) and businesses to be able to produce renewable energy at a similar cost to current energy prices. |
Domestic Policy › Drug Policy
8>8 Personal answerYes, for drugs that have relatively low negative outcomes in comparison to currently legal drugs such as alcohol, tobacco, and marijuana. |
Immigration › Immigration
8>8 Personal answerNo, the current policy is sufficient |
Elections › Criminal Politicians
8>8 Personal answerYes, as long as it was not a felony, violent, financial, or sexual crime |
Crime › Defunding the Police
8>8 Personal answerNo, raise funding for social and community based programs, and re-organize police funding so more training and the culture of 'don't report your fellow officer' is minimized. |
Housing › Foreign Owned Homes
8>8 Personal answerNo, rather significantly increase the requirements for foreign buyers, 20% additional tax, any capital gains on foreign bought land/property is, for example, taxed at 70%. |
Elections › Minimum Voting Age
8>8 Personal answerNo |
Crime › Parole Hearings
8>8 Personal answerNo, and reinstate the death penalty for heinous premeditated crimes |
Elections › Right of Foreigners to Vote
8>8 Personal answerYes, but only after living in the country for 5 years |
the Economy › Government Spending
8>8 Personal answerYes, but by drastically reducing the benefits and salaries of government officials |
Science › Nuclear Energy
8>8 Personal answerYes, although relatively expensive, it is a perfect and reliable replacement for fossil fuel derived electricity which could accelerate the transition away from fossil fuel energy. Regulations and red tape need to be revised. |
Housing › Affordable Housing
8>8 Personal answerYes, relatively affordable homes/townhomes for the lower middle class (200-500k in large urban areas, 100-300k or less in smaller towns, cities, etc.) |
Housing › Home Buyer Incentives
8>8 Personal answerYes, and the government should limit the number of homes that can be bought by a single person or corporation |
Education › Postsecondary Education
8>8 Personal answerProvincially managed but with federal standards to ensure consistency |
Foreign Policy › Bill C-51
8>8 Personal answerNo, the bill is too vague on the issues of scope, oversight, and accountability |
Transportation › Public Transportation
8>8 Personal answerYes but depending on the city, some require major additional support, some not as much. But a well functioning and efficient public transportation system can significantly reduce the reliance on fossil fuel car usage in cities. |
Transportation › Green Transportation
8>8 Personal answerNo, not all areas can be easily switched to electric power, particularly more remote areas. Slowly switching areas that are viable to electric power should be considered. |
Crime › Criminal Voting Rights
8>8 Personal answerYes, but only after completing their sentences and parole/probation |
Education › Charter Schools
8>8 Personal answerYes, but only if they are non-profit |
Transportation › Commercial Drones
8>8 Personal answerYes, considering safety measures and regulations are being followed and enforced. |
