Parliamentary Priorities
It’s back to business for MP’s in the House of Commons as the Liberals took the wraps off their agenda with the Throne Speech. The Liberals do carry a minority into the House which means they will need the support of another party to get anything accomplished. The Opposition parties grumbled about the contents and the direction, but with a pandemic still here, supply chain issues costing us on everything and the destruction in B.C. from flooding, there is no shortage of starting places for the government. What should be their first priority?
Our poll question asks: Which government priority do you want addressed first?
Our audience responded..
- Vaccinations = 14%
- Paid sick leave = 1.1%
- $10 a day Childcare = 1.6%
- Conversion Therapy = 2.2%
- Indigenous Reconciliation = 5.9%
- Military Reform = 3.8%
- COP26 Commitments = 5.4%
- Other = 29%
- None of the Above = 37.1%
