I think a majority of Canadians are kind, hardworking, and want what's best for their families, friends, neighbours, and the country.

What does a brand new political party platform look like to appeal to an overwhelming majority of Canadians?

  • Legalized drug possession, criminalize selling without permits and authorization.

  • Electoral Reform, I don't know which but anything is better than we have

  • Healthcare which includes dental and eyes, pharmacare, mental health care

  • Higher corporate tax rates

  • Higher taxes on the ultra wealthy

  • Higher property taxes for those who own more than 2 properties

  • Lower taxes for Low to Middle income

  • Increase universities that have medical and nursing programs.

  • Allow scary looking guns, increase border security to prevent illegal guns from entering the country in the first place.

  • Increase defense spending to meet NATO standards, invest in self sustainability and being able to build and repair our navy.

    Allow scary looking guns but require the gun and anything that goes onto or into it, anything that it attaches to and anything that attaches to it to be hot pink. Possession of anything that should be hot pink but isn't automatically loose the privilege of owning guns for life. Allow a gun or anything that should be hot pink but isn't into your range lose your licence forever. Sell a gun or anything else that should be hot pink loose your license forever.

    Being hot pink does not in any way diminish the function of the gun. I'm perfectly happy to shoot with a hot pink gun. If you object then the only reason you want the gun is for how it looks and how it makes you feel. Those are bad reasons to own a gun in Canada.
