What People Want

Did you know that nobody help Canada in time of wildfire, flash floods and storms? Canada usually fixed its own mess after all the disaster and calamities. However, when other countries had troubles, typhoons, hurricanes, earthquakes, famine, floods, war and other conflict...Canadians rushed out to make sure these countries get the help they needs in terms of relief effort: food supply, health & medical supply, including medics and health workers. Could it be that it's better to give than to receive?

Maybe. Maybe not.

What's the deal?

So the campaign rally is non-stop now after the parliament was dissolved by the Governor Gen. Payette (former Canadian astronaut). Rally here and there, coast to coast. Debates, interviews, photo ops with lots of people from different walks of life and touching and kissing babies and young children showing how gentle those candidates and showing priorities that they care about children and families.

What majority of people want?  I think youth advocates should give them the list of what's priorities.
Let the voters younger or olds give  them a long list.

1. Priority on Economics: Economic condition of a country affects everyone. The pursuit of happiness is based on good economy.

2. Employment. Make sure there's enough work for employable people with skills. To give mandatory training for workers with less skills so that they can be useful.

3. Education. FREE COLLEGE/UNIVERSITY EDUCATION for those who are naturally born in Canada. If Germany offers free College education to those who can speak their language, why not impose this on Canadians who can speak its language. Canada is richer than Philippines, why Philippines offer FREE College Education for its citizens and why Canada cannot? Prioritize Canadian born students to be accepted in College and University over foreign students. Do not be a racist to your own people when it comes to Education.

4. OJT or On The Job Training in High Schools (Grade 12) to better emphasize that Canadians should work and work is the best option to survive.

5. Health. It's true that Health Care is free for all low income families and for the unemployed. What else is needed to make sure that Canadians, permanent residents are healthy and being helped including the seniors whose medical supply (medicines) are costly and take away their life savings and pensions. Could be lower the cost of  medicines or preferably free medicare and supply for seniors age 65 and above? Did you know that $350/month supply of Hypertension drugs is very, very expensive and taking away a monthly supply of food?

6. Lower taxes: GST & PST. There's no tax on food. Thank God! However, 12% or 14% tax on anything, everything is TOO HIGH. Have you seen so many people shopping? I don't know where the people shop anymore.

7. Canada is the supplier of food, gas, oil and other work supplies around the world, do you think taxes should be eliminated? Just within Canada. You can impose tariffs too to other countries. Be kind to your own people. Lower the price of gas the best option.

8. Housing. If you can provide free housing for refugees, don't you think first priority should be FREE HOUSING FOR true, real Canadians? Oh, too many wealthy Canadians? So true and so untrue! Even Bill Gates and Trump have problems with their taxes so at least an affordable housing is required for every Canadians is much needed. Provide more houses for rent. To own houses is an option for millionaires who can change houses at a whim if they want during wildfires, floods and other calamities. For ordinary, working people...affordable rental housing is much needed. Hey, before the whole forest is consumed by wildfire and turned them into ashes and into ink.

9. Salary & Wages. Work with pay. Why volunteer when you can be paid for your work? Wage increase required especially in British Columbia.  $15/hour wage is the right minimum wage in today's standard of living. The price of gas is going up and the price of commodities are up, up and away therefore wage increase is necessary to upgrade the standard of living of every Canadians.

10. Utilities are high, so high you can reach the sky. Internet fee is high almost reaching Everest. Hydro is really HIGHdro. Why it's so high? No matter how thrifty some people are, but hydro is really super high. Lower the  consumption of water and electricity? What? Are you kidding me? During Fall and Winter? Please don't leave us in the COLD. We are not in the COLD WAR. That was a thing of the past and no one should experience such balmy, coldest war ever especially in Canada.
