  1. Who you vote for matters.
  2.  
  3. >Liberals
  4.  
  5. DIVERSITY TARGETS (pushing deserving people out of jobs)
  6. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/diversity-in-government/
  7. >We will build a government as diverse as Canada.
  8. >Our country is stronger, and our government more effective, when decision-makers reflect Canada’s diversity.
  9. >We will include an equal number of women and men in our Cabinet.
  10. >We will also adopt a new government-wide appointment process that is open and based on merit.
  11. FUCKING HELL, WE'RE LIVING IN A PARODY WORLD
  12.  
  13. 16 YEAR OLD ADVISORS
  14. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/young-people/
  15. >We will involve young people in government.
  16. >At its highest levels, our government needs to do a better job of understanding and addressing the needs of Canada’s young people.
  17. >We will create a Prime Minister’s Youth Advisory Council, consisting of young Canadians aged 16 to 24, to provide non-partisan advice to the Prime Minister on issues facing the country.
  18. JUSTIN, JUSTIN, JUSTIN, PLEASE. THIS IS A COMPLETELY LUDICROUS VOTE-BUYING TECHNIQUE.
  19.  
  20. UNIONS. (Are you fucking kidding me? No one's dying in coal mines. Unions these days are just for squeezing employers dry by throwing tantrums that disrupt operations.)
  21. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/labour-unions/
  22. >We will restore fair and balanced labour laws that acknowledge the important role of unions in Canada.
  23. >Labour unions play an important role in protecting the rights of workers and growing the middle class.
  24. >Under Stephen Harper, many of the fundamental labour rights that unions have worked so hard to secure have been rolled back, making it more difficult for workers to organize freely, bargain collectively in good faith, and work in safe environments.
  25. >We will restore fair and balanced labour laws that acknowledge the important role of unions in Canada, and respect their importance in helping the middle class grow and prosper. This begins with repealing Bills C-377 and C-525, legislation that diminishes and weakens Canada’s labour movement.
  26.  
  27. KEEPING KIDS AWAY FROM THEIR MOTHERS
  28. TO ENCOURAGE MORE EMPOWERED WYMYN MOTHERS
  29. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/child-care/
  30. >We will develop a child care framework that meets the needs of Canadian families, wherever they live.
  31. >Child care needs vary from family to family, and provinces and territories have responded to these needs in different ways. A one-size-fits all national program – particularly one that imposes pre-determined costs on other orders of government – is impractical and unfair.
  32. >We will meet with provinces, territories, and Indigenous communities to begin work on a new National Early Learning and Child Care Framework, to deliver affordable, high-quality, flexible, and fully inclusive child care for Canadian families. This work will begin in the first 100 days of a Liberal government and will be funded through our investments in social infrastructure.
  33.  
  34. MORE IMMIGRATION (as if the Tories weren't bad enough at 200k per year!)
  35. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/reuniting-families/
  36. >We will make it easier for immigrants to build successful lives in Canada, and contribute to the economic success of all Canadians.
  37. >Immigration has always been an important part of Canada’s economic growth, but over the past decade, Stephen Harper has turned his back on welcoming those who want to contribute to our country’s success.
  38. >We will take immediate steps to reopen Canada’s doors, and will make reuniting families a top priority.
  39. >We will immediately double the number of applications allowed for parents and grandparents, to 10,000 each year.
  40. >We will also nearly double the budget for processing family class sponsorship. Wait times will come down – which currently average almost four years for parent and grandparent applications.
  41. >We will provide more opportunities for applicants who have Canadian siblings by giving additional points under the Express Entry system, and we will restore the maximum age for dependents to 22 from 19, to allow more Canadians to bring their children to Canada.
  42. >We will also grant immediate permanent residency to new spouses entering Canada, eliminating the two-year waiting period.
  43.  
  44. BRING-EM-IN
  45. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/international-students-and-temporary-residents/
  46. >We will give international students and temporary residents credit for time already spent in Canada.
  47. >We will make it easier for international students and other temporary residents to become Canadian citizens by restoring the residency time credit. We will also make changes to the Canadian Experience Class, to reduce the barriers to immigration imposed on international students.
  48.  
  49. REFUGEEEEEEEEES (25k more, we're "deeply moved", lel)
  50. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/refugees/
  51. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/syrian-refugees/
  52. >We will restore Canada’s reputation and help more people in need through a program that is safe, secure, and humane.
  53. >Canada once welcomed refugees openly, but that proud history has faded after a decade of mismanagement under Stephen Harper. We will renew and expand our commitment to helping resettle more refugees, and deliver a refugee program that is safe, secure, and humane.
  54. ...
  55. >We will welcome more refugees from Syria to Canada, and offer more help to those providing aid in the region.
  56. >Canadians have been deeply moved by the suffering of refugees in Syria and the surrounding region. Canada has a strong history of helping those in need, from Hungarian refugees in the 1950s to Ismaili Muslim refugees in the 1970s to those fleeing South East Asia by boat in the 1970s and 1980s.
  57. >Many Canadians have already offered to help those fleeing Syria, and it is time for the federal government to offer more help, too. We have a responsibility to expand our refugee targets and give more victims of war a safe haven in Canada.
  58. >To that end, we will expand Canada’s intake of refugees from Syria by 25,000 through immediate government sponsorship. We will also work with private sponsors to accept even more. To do this, we will invest $250 million, including $100 million this fiscal year, to increase refugee processing, as well as sponsorship and settlement services capacity in Canada.
  59.  
  60. "CULTURAL AND CREATIVE INDUSTRIES" (because that's what helps our economy) ("international cultural promotion programs"??)
  61. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/cultural-and-creative-industries/
  62. >We will invest in our cultural and creative industries to create jobs and grow the middle class, and to strengthen our rich Canadian identity.
  63. >Canada’s cultural and creative industries are a vibrant part of our national identity and our economy, providing employment to more than one million Canadians.
  64. >Unfortunately, these industries have been under attack during the Harper decade, hit by funding cuts that have made it harder for Canadian artists to share Canadian stories, here in Canada and around the world.
  65. ...
  66. >Targeted investments will include:
  67. >doubling investment in the Canada Council for the Arts to $360 million each year;
  68. >increasing funding for Telefilm Canada and the National Film Board, with a new investment totalling $25 million each year; and
  69. >restoring the Promart and Trade Routes international cultural promotion programs cut by Stephen Harper, and increasing funding in these programs to $25 milllion each year.
  70. >As part of our commitment to create 40,000 youth jobs each year, we will increase funding for the Young Canada Works program to help prepare the next generation of Canadians working in the heritage sector.
  71.  
  72. TRANS* LGBTBBQ RICE (you won't be allowed to refuse Christopherina just because h/she's visibly mentally ill...)
  73. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/trans-rights/
  74. >We will make sure that trans* rights are recognized as human rights and fully protected.
  75. >We will introduce government legislation to add gender identity as a prohibited ground of discrimination under the Canadian Human Rights Act, and to the list of distinguishing characteristics of “identifiable groups” protected by the hate speech provisions in the Criminal Code.
  76.  
  77. HOMES FOR THE HOMELESS
  78. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/affordable-housing/
  79. >We will make it easier for Canadians to find an affordable place to call home.
  80. >Today, one in four Canadian households is paying more than it can afford for housing, and one in eight cannot find affordable housing that is safe, suitable, and well maintained.
  81. >When affordable housing is in short supply, Canadians feel less secure and our whole economy suffers.
  82. >We will renew federal leadership in housing, starting with a new, ten-year investment in social infrastructure.
  83.  
  84. FREE(ER) ACCESS TO MIND-ALTERING DRUGS
  85. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/a-new-health-accord/
  86. >We will make home care more available, prescription drugs more affordable, and mental health care more accessible.
  87.  
  88. MORE DOLLAS FOR JEROME'S BABY-MAMAS
  89. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/fighting-poverty/
  90. >Our plan will lift Canadians out of poverty starting immediately after the next election.
  91. >We will introduce a new Canada Child Benefit. Tax-free, tied to income and delivered monthly, this benefit provides greater support to those who need help most: single-parent families and low-income families. It will lift 315,000 children out of poverty.
  92.  
  93. QUADRUPLE-COST GREEN MACHINES
  94. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/public-transit%E2%80%A8/
  95. >We will invest in public transit to shorten commute times, cut air pollution, strengthen our communities, and grow our economy.
  96. ...
  97. >Over the next decade, we will quadruple federal investment in public transit, investing almost $20 billion more in transit infrastructure.
  98.  
  99. FORCED GENEROSITY - COUNTRIES NOT LOOKING OUT FOR THEMSELVES
  100. WILL MORE MONEY TO THE REGIMES IN AFRICA REALLY IMPROVE THEIR LIVES?
  101. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/help-for-the-worlds-poor/
  102. >We will refocus our development assistance on helping the poorest and most vulnerable.
  103. >Over the past ten years, Stephen Harper has steadily shifted aid away from the world’s poorest countries, particularly in Africa.
  104. >We will consult with Canadian and international aid organizations to review current policies and funding frameworks that will refocus our aid priorities on poverty reduction.
  105. >As part of rebalancing our priorities, we will ensure that every dollar committed to international development actually gets spent. We will not allow funds to lapse, as Stephen Harper has done.
  106.  
  107. BLAZE IT
  108. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/marijuana/
  109. >We will legalize, regulate, and restrict access to marijuana.
  110. >Arresting and prosecuting these offenses is expensive for our criminal justice system. It traps too many Canadians in the criminal justice system for minor, non-violent offenses. At the same time, the proceeds from the illegal drug trade support organized crime and greater threats to public safety, like human trafficking and hard drugs.
  111. That's because the sentences are meaninglessly short, and almost never given. If we ACTUALLY punished MJ usage, you wouldn't have that complaint, Justin.
  112.  
  113. CANADA POST MAKE WORK PROJECT
  114. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/canada-post/
  115. >We will save home mail delivery.
  116. >By ending door-to-door mail delivery, Stephen Harper is asking Canadians to pay more for less service. That is unacceptable.
  117. >We will stop Stephen Harper’s plan to end door-to-door mail delivery in Canada and undertake a new review of Canada Post to make sure that it provides high-quality service at a reasonable price to Canadians, no matter where they live.
  118.  
  119. WOMENS STUDIES DEGREES
  120. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/post-secondary-education/
  121. >We will make post-secondary education more affordable.
  122. ...
  123. >This will increase the level of non-repayable grant assistance to students by $750 million per year, rising to $850 million per year by 2019/20.
  124.  
  125. MORE CARBON TAX WILL MEAN LESS EMISSION
  126. https://www.liberal.ca/realchange/climate-change/
  127. >We will provide national leadership and join with the provinces and territories to take action on climate change, put a price on carbon, and reduce carbon pollution.
  128. Justin, there are more dangerous chemicals than just "carbon" (by which I assume he means "carbon monoxide/dioxide", otherwise my pencils are in danger...
