Our mainstream political parties do not deserve to govern

In the last 40 years our debt has mushroomed 10 fold. 

1981-82 our federal debt was $107 billion; 

2021 our federal debt is more than $1,000,000,000,000. Really it is more than $1.4 trillion.  

We are in the trillions regarding federal debt

How do you like that? Borrowing and someone else is to pay it off. Imagine if you operated your household like that?

If you look at the Governance side 

Prime Minister’s Office (include Privy Council Office which reports to PM) employs 1,500 

Prime Minister breaking the law five times and still PM  

No party has introduced legislation to increase penalties on MPs who break the law 

Parliamentary Committees closed down by majority party — SNC Lavalin Scandal

PM guilty of obstruction of justice — Conflict of Interest Commissioner  

Laws introduced that will limit a person’s freedom  

Pandemic 

Numerous violations by Governments of our Charter of Rights and Freedoms  

A Judge hearing a case against the Govt Party for whom she was a candidate  

Accused of mischief can see you in shackles when brought to court 

Independent science ignored and often denigrated  

Doctors and researchers harassed and loosing their jobs from Government agencies  

All of this under the watchful eye of Conservative, Liberal and NDP.  

So why should taxpayers vote for this picture of incompetence, constitution breaking, wild spending, science corrupting, unproductive, law breaking, health destroying, tech failing leadership?
