I would also add a growth agenda. We should figure out ways to encourage more and more investment into the country and not demonize people who succeed here. Part of that also includes deregulation and harmonizing internal trade.
Ultimately, economic growth can pay for all the services we want.
The purpose of the permanent Expert Commissions is to work through questions like that - I’m not an expert at how to answer sticky economic policy Qs and I don’t want to pretend I am
Expert panels are great, until we have an expert panel on carbon taxes headed up by the food professor and a panel on mental health headed by Jordan Peterson. Be careful what you wish for.
Evan mentioned the PMO a couple of times in this article. Over time, since when I am not sure, but the power seems to reside more and more in the PMO. Maybe it started with Lyin' Brian, maybe sooner. But I think the PMO needs to be stripped of its power and have power return to MP's and membership. I would not be surprised if PP consolidates more power in the PMO because of course he wiil.
I particularly liked the leadership review. BC EDAs that I’m familiar with wanted one two years ago. JT has not opened doors in our riding for the last 6 years! We focus on our local MP Patrick Weiler who also recognized this and has felt the PMO shun.
However, we do not elect our PM, we choose a party that reflects our values and those we want to see in our communities. I used to say country but hey, who gives a damn about BC. (We like it that way until they ram more oil and gas ships into our front yard).
Therefore, I embrace your platform cuz I know I could bring to the door and have it open wider.
I like most of your ideas and your analysis mostly right on but, damn, you sure need an editor. Your writing often includes errors and is not very fluent. This from someone who usually writes en français but can write better than you in English. I’m only writing this because I truly believe your ideas deserve better writing. You can contact me on Substack.

Sounds great. I’d vote for you.

Indeed.

So what you’re saying is that the party is a circus need a Carney to run it? Sounds good
