However, I am concerned that there is too much partisan politics, creating a barrier to meaningful dialogue, depriving us of the benefits of good governance.   Today, our destiny is driven by party politics, paid lobbyists, and special interest groups funding politicians to act in their interest and not yours. This has led to an imbalance in Canadian society between rich and not rich.  Left unabated, these influences greatly hinder equal opportunity and individual achievement. 

As a Member of Parliament, my goal will be to dedicate my service, to bring new and lasting, ideas and solutions to government, for the betterment of all.   I will be independent and will collaborate with everyone, regardless of party affiliation, to get things done.  I will play a principal leadership role to propose and pass legislation, enact policies and enforce regulations in support of restoring democratic balance between Canada’s institutions and all Canadians.

In pursuit of this, I would like to seek your assistance in reaching out to all Canadians and make them aware that while Canada is a great country, there is still a lot of room to make it even better.

The Way Back to Good Governance

I am concerned that there is too much partisan politics, creating a barrier to meaningful dialogue, depriving us of the benefits of good governance.   

Over the past 20 – 30 years, the day-to-day management of the Government has morphed from laid-down, long-lasting, well researched and tested, policies and practices, to the often misdirected, ineffective, and divisive administration of short- and long-term government goals. Rather than focus on long term Canadian national objectives of good public service, and international objectives, promoting global trade, peace and prosperity, there is often too much intrusion of petty political interference in day-to-day management. This can lead to confusion at the working level and to the public’s distrust of government institutions.

Canada needs a long-term plan focused on major policy initiatives, that are developed, reviewed and managed by public and private sector experts in various policy fields, such as science, economics, academia, business, and government. This plan must meet the legal and operating goals of good government and Canadian law, and would be regularly reviewed, publicly posted, and submitted to a Committee of Parliament for recommendation to the current Prime Minister. This long-term plan should initially and when revised, guide the direction of the government, in phases, out at least 20 years. It must be independent of individual political and personal intervention.

My Vision of a Better Canada

A country that is responsible, progressive, and vibrant; encourages diversity, acceptance and understanding; respects life, has strong family & moral values and recognizes “people’s rights”.

I plan to focus on the following concerns as I think they need to be addressed immediately:

• The exponential growth in technology is very concerning as morals have not coped up with it. Guardrails have to be established more specifically on Artificial Intelligence (AI).
• I will be the voice of youth, as the future is theirs.  To the youth I say “get involved and vote”.  You don’t necessarily have to vote for me (I would like you to…just vote!)
• I will work for an improved Healthcare and affordable Day Care Systems.  I will be the voice of the sick and the elderly; providing proper, sustainable & affordable care.
• I will work to improve the quality of life; addressing the causes of poverty, homelessness, addiction, etc.
