Hi Alison,
Thank you very much for your response.
Canada has been a rich and powerful country for a long time. Canada has abundant resources, such as oil, agriculture, mining, fisheries, timber, animal husbandry, etc. It is enough to maintain a rich and powerful country . But today Canada seems to be getting poorer and poorer, the high cost of living, high rent, high taxes and high national debt. Indonesia has a population of 400 million, no housing pressure, no high taxes. Canada is only one-tenth of Indonesia’s population. How to explain the government’s governance ability ? How does the government manage Canada’s abundant resources ? Is it only protecting the interests of capitalists and ignoring the interests of Canada ? The rich resources are eaten up by capitalists ! Des the government have any responsibility ?
As for trade , the so-called resources sharing is basically based on mutual benefit. Since free trade got out of control, a large number of cheap goods have replaced the market and our high-quality manufacturing industry . Moreover, many old stores have been crushed by cheap goods. For example, Eaton, Sears, and Sellers in various provinces and cities across the country have closed down ! A large number of people have been unemployed. In this way, cheap goods can make a small amount money,but the gain are not worth the losses. They have destroyed the entire market and the economy has been affected. Resources complement each other and should not destroy Canada ’s own economy , Moreover, Canada is rich in resources and does not require much trade from outside world. Canada is rich in resources and basically be self -sufficient in clothing, food, housing and transportation. Canada is rich in resources so even though it is eager to beg for trade, it lacks Canadian interest. The United State impose tariffs on Canada to protect the interests of the United States. Canada should also impose tariffs on other unfair trade countries that damage Canadian interest . Please do not make the same mistakes as in the past. From a resource-rich country, it has become increasing poor, which is even more unsuccessful than Indonesia with a population of 400 million. Please wake up !
Canada ’s most urgent problem is to stop population expansion. The population has increased by more than 10 million in a short period of time, causing chaos in clothing, food, housing, and transportation. The economy has been crushed by the failure of housing policies. There is no industrial development to increase sustainable jobs. The United States built a wall in Mexico to prevent refugees, but Canada did not wake up at all . It destroyed the Canadian economy. How can accepting refugees on a humanitarian basis destroy the Canadian economy ?
The Green Party basically focuses on environmental protection and protecting the ecological environment , but precious forest animals have basically disappeared, trees have been cut down in large quantities and climate change has also caused serious forest fires. What has the government created ? Only raise useless Carbon Taxes and destroy the economy.
Your response will be highly appreciated.
