Carney should trade RRSPs for underwater condos owned by ma and pa's.

Defunding the police and using that money legalize all drugs...is an idealist plan that won't end well. Police reform sure, legalized drugs sure. But some explanation between the two positions needs to be thought through.
About 10% of society is made up of people that are evil, like to pull wings of flies, kick dogs, laugh at handicapped people. The left has no way of dealing with them.
Progressives are 100% on board with changing the way law enforcement is done
The left can't communicate what it wants law enforcement to be.
unmanageable levels
We went from 47 to 25. Toronto has a population of 3.3 million. That's 132,000 per councilor, currently. Previously it was 70,000 people per city councilor. Nothing is being done in this city because there are too few councilors! Currently a handful of very rich developers get to decide most things.
Even the few things that this city council managed to decide, those decisions were still overturned by Doug Ford.
Collingwood Ontario has 9 city councilors and has a population of 30,000. That's like 1 representative for every 3,000 people!!!
The wages of the extra politicians would be completely insignificant. People can't really seem to comprehend the money governments spend, and on what.
...neo-liberalism goes away when ridings get smaller. People focus on solving local issues. Currently with such big ridings, anything local and of importance doesn't even get mentioned or solved politically.
The police forces are controlled by very right wing people, they don't put any energy into causes that they don't like, like loud and reckless driving cars.
It would be good to make the police forces more responsive to the communities they serve, but the left has no interest. Legalize drugs, make they only available through license sellers...and go after the unauthorized seller very very very hard, because those people don't care about you, or making Canada better.
It's also that the riding are too bid at 100,000 people, and should be 30,000 at most. Combine the large riding with FPTP and people in both rural/urban areas don't get the representation that they are looking for and become dissatisfied. We'd have more than 3 parties with smaller ridings, and we'd have to address more local issues.
Riding are too big, imagine if we had riding of 30,000 instead of 100,000. You'd get very local candidates making their way to Parliament, with very local issues to deal with. It would be less polarizing, and help solve local problems.
Ranked ballots are soooo much better than FPTP, why won't the NDP and other lefties see that ranked ballots are good. Why/how did proportional representation become a purity test of the ultra left?
...the Singh centre-left got lots of stuff done in Canada like a dental plan.
The left needs simpler ideas, like 'we'll just hire your kids right out of trade school, and give them a job building 500,000 social housing units' so they can make money and get experience'.
The left also needs to get tough on crime. Get rid of the violence in prisons by making them safe, but put lots more people behind bars.
Harder to shot down a sub? Almost all countries can now make missiles that travel at Mach7+, 3x faster than fighter jets can fly. Like a Porshe vs. a Beetle, the Beetle doesn't stand a chance.
