Point 15 - Removing authority from the Human Rights Comission and Human Rights Tribunal. No thank you.
Point 16 - Property Rights - "full compensation" for anyone deprived of property by any federal act. Goodbye infrastructure projects or newly protected lands.
Point 17 - "Right to Work" Legislation - Just eff all the way off, CPC.
That's just up to page 14 of a 77 page document. |
Your opposition to 16 is interesting because you are saying that you are okay with the government using eminent domain for their own benefit and potentially screwing over land owners. Why would you be opposed to owners getting fair and just compensation for giving up their land?
11 is also interesting because it already is a politicized process. The federal cabinet recommends appointments and the Governor General makes the appointment. How would you change the process so that it is not politicized or do you view the current process as sufficiently "independent"?
