MODERATORS
I've always been for creating a series of hills across Canada so we can take our bikes and coast from coast to coast...
But, as someone who lives abroad I would love to be able to vote again. Has that rule changed?
Maybe election reform someday would be appealing to a majority of Canadians, and also teaching about elections in school a little more.
My mother is getting old and she feels like old people have a shit deal, so we need to do something about that. Student loan debt needs to be sorted out.
I want more emphasis on the environment. When I move back to Canada, I would pay carbon taxes if there were also carbon freebates (or whatever they want to call them). I would be all for 4-day workweeks or even universal income. Yes, I am a dirty socialist eco-friendly freak. Leave the trees alone, stop maplewashing everything, we have the space to rewild areas, invest in trains and stop charging so much for them (don't know how that would work), and make sure people can have a retirement to look forward to. Minimum wage should be higher, teachers should earn more, new parents should have MONTHS of paid parental leave, childcare needs to be covered...
Healthcare needs an overhaul: why was my mother on a 9-month waitlist to confirm she had lymphoma? Why is my 72-year-old father still working 16-hour days even though he is sick? Why can't either of them see their GP?
