<\/p>\n<p><strong>Top 10 Election Issues<\/strong><br \/>\nMonday September 8, 2008<br \/>\nCityNews.ca Staff<\/p>\n<p>It shouldn&#8217;t surprise you that Liberal leader Stephane Dion calls this &#8216;the most important vote in Canadian history.&#8217; Every leader of every party has at some point in past elections used the same phrase. But there&#8217;s little doubt that there&#8217;s a definite difference between the candidates this time around that we don&#8217;t often get to see.  <\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a look at some of the issues that may loom large this go-round.  <\/p>\n<p>1) The economy <\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ve heard that old canard that when the U.S. sneezes, Canada catches a cold. Well, our neighbour to the south is full of sniffles these days, and Ontario workers have that achy feeling. With the auto industry in turmoil and jobs disappearing from this province, this could be the biggest single issue in Ontario.  <\/p>\n<p>Liberal leader Stephane Dion has already taken a page from Ronald Reagan&#8217;s handbook, essentially asking &#8216;are you better off now than you were two years ago?&#8217; The way you answer that question may well define who gets your check mark or your &#8220;X&#8221; on October 14th.  <\/p>\n<p>2) Taxes<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s become the number one quiver in the Conservative arsenal: offer always over-taxed voters cuts in the amount of levies they have to pay to the federal government. Expect the Tories to hammer away at the issue and remind you they chopped the GST as they promised. And don&#8217;t be surprised to hear them tell you that Stephane Dion is primarily campaigning on the Green Shift plan &#8211; a program few really understand but which opponents will paint as a tax you can&#8217;t afford.  <\/p>\n<p>3) The environment <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s always an issue, but rarely has it ever been as prominent as it is this time. Stephane Dion has made it the centerpiece of his platform and both the NDP and Green Party will be harping on it, too. Except them all to remind you that the Conservatives failed to live up to Canada&#8217;s commitments to the Kyoto Protocol, which we signed under the Grits in April 1998 but Stephen Harper deemed impossible to carry out.   <\/p>\n<p>4) Leadership <\/p>\n<p>A big issue with many. One recent poll seemed to suggest that most Canadians asked didn&#8217;t really seem very impressed with any of the party leaders, with the NDP&#8217;s Jack Layton coming out on top of Stephen Harper over who would be the best leader. All three of the major party bosses may be vulnerable on this issue and voters could well be casting a ballot more against than in favour of a specific candidate.  <\/p>\n<p>5) Gas prices <\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;re the highest they&#8217;ve ever been and they could play a role in the vote. Many drivers are already openly wondering why the Conservatives refused to at least temporarily lower taxes on gas as the prices climbed ever higher. While things have improved slightly, they&#8217;re far from cheap and with hurricanes, tensions in the Middle East and OPEC countries threatening to cut supply, they could go back up again at any time.  <\/p>\n<p>The Conservatives and some financial experts have long claimed that cutting gas taxes wouldn&#8217;t significantly alter the price, but that may not be something many constituents will either believe or want to hear. And those who make their living on the road may make this a major issue.  <\/p>\n<p>But with world markets having most of the say, the other parties don&#8217;t really have an answer for this problem either, a vulnerability for all of them.  <\/p>\n<p>6) Health care <\/p>\n<p>This one seems to have taken a back seat to the others, and it&#8217;s not the high priority it has been in past elections. But it&#8217;s not out of sight or out of mind &#8211; there are still thousands and thousands of Canadians who don&#8217;t have a family doctor in this country and don&#8217;t know where to find one. And the waiting list at hospitals and for tests is still too long.  <\/p>\n<p>7) Afghanistan <\/p>\n<p>With the death of the 97th Canadian overseas and our soldiers scheduled to remain there until 2011, there could be growing pressure brought to bear over this issue. The NDP is already on record as opposing our involvement. And with each death, some of the questions surrounding our presence get a little louder.  <\/p>\n<p>8) Crime <\/p>\n<p>The Conservative crime bill passed in the House of Commons, and is supposed to allow police and the legal system to crack down harder on law breakers. Some argue it&#8217;s too tough, others that it&#8217;s not harsh enough. Those in the big cities, where violent crimes are more likely to take place on a regular basis, may see this as an issue to grill all the parties on as the campaign wears on.  <\/p>\n<p>9) The Toronto Factor <\/p>\n<p>As local and provincial politicians agitate for more support from the federal government for Canada&#8217;s once proud economic engine, voters here may bluntly demand to know: what&#8217;s in it for us? The Conservatives have a reputation for ignoring Toronto and the city has fallen into the red, having a tough time maintaining vital services like infrastructure.  <\/p>\n<p>If the Harper government hopes to have even a shot at a majority, it will have to convince those in the 416 that they matter &#8211; and this time, they may have to prove it before the big vote.  <\/p>\n<p>10) Nationalism <\/p>\n<p>For the first time in a long time, the spectre of Quebec separation isn&#8217;t a huge issue. The &#8216;we&#8217;re leaving&#8217; noises that often emanate from La Belle Province have been ramped down in recent years, as the downturn in the economy takes its toll everywhere. The Conservatives are gaining in that province, although not enough to beat the Bloc.  <\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s the status of the once impregnable Liberals there that may well tell the final tale of this election. And while Stephane Dion is better known in Quebec than in the rest of Canada, that doesn&#8217;t mean he&#8217;s well liked.  <\/p>\n<p>Just like the Ontario and Toronto factors, the outcome may well rest with how many Tories and how many Liberals find a seat in this game of political musical chairs in our neighbour to the east. <\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.citynews.ca\/news\/news_26602.aspx<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>What Are The Main Issues For The GTA In The Election?<\/strong><br \/>\nMonday September 8, 2008<br \/>\nCityNews.ca Staff<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to the Greater Toronto Area, the Conservatives have been persona non grata. The Tories failed to get a single seat in Toronto proper in the last election and only gained a few seats in the GTA itself. (See the results from 2006 here.)<\/p>\n<p>That means if Stephen Harper and company hope to rule the roost with a majority in Ottawa come October 14th, they&#8217;ll have to prove to you they deserve your vote. And that has everyone from the Mayor to the average man and woman on the street looking out for their own pet cause. <\/p>\n<p>Including seniors. &#8220;Decent housing. Decent housing, absolutely,&#8221; reiterates Kathryn Wallace, now past the age of 65. &#8220;And more senior recognition.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At the other end of the age cycle, a student knows what&#8217;s on her wish list. &#8220;Cut down on student tuition. Basically have more housing and help for students, better &#8216;how to find a job,&#8217; better job.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Others have more far reaching wants. &#8220;I&#8217;ve got a little five-year-old, and without an environment in the future, he&#8217;s got nothing,&#8221; one voter outlines. &#8220;And we always seem to get caught up in money before we get caught up in the real world.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Another man is more concerned with safety than school. &#8220;The crime part of the community, too, because also you want your children to feel free to roam around the community where you live, not knowing that a gunshot might pass or police might harass them.&#8221; His comment comes on the same day that a man was gunned down in cold blood at a local bus stop.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor David Miller, seconds the emotion and pledges to make handguns and violence a huge issue. &#8220;Public safety has to be at the top of the agenda,&#8221; he maintains. &#8220;And I think it&#8217;s very important for the parties to articulate where they stand.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But Miller has been lobbying the feds to invest more money in infrastructure in cities, including transit and public housing. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Big city mayors have called for a national transit strategy. Will we see that investment? Are they going to invest in our aging infrastructure in a permanent way? Are they going to invest in housing? Will they support the creative economy by investing in culture and the arts, not making cuts? Will they invest in green jobs through environmental promise? Those are the questions I have.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>So will the powers-that-want-to-be actually hear you for a change? &#8220;They&#8217;re starting to listen,&#8221; feels mom Tracy Izzard. <\/p>\n<p>But not everyone agrees. &#8220;I don&#8217;t think Harper is,&#8221; one man counters. &#8220;That&#8217;s one of the problems with the Conservatives, they ignore this city.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For Municipal Affairs and Housing Minister Jim Watson, it&#8217;s a case of being fair but firm. &#8220;When candidates knock on your door, answer the door respectfully &#8211; and press hard on the issue of affordable housing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But whether they&#8217;ll keep listening after the middle of next month is another question. With so few battle ground ridings that seem open to the Conservatives here, it&#8217;s still not clear how many chances you&#8217;ll get to actually ask them. <\/p>\n<p>http:\/\/www.citynews.ca\/news\/news_26642.aspx<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u52a0\u62ff\u5927\u9009\u6c11\u6700\u5728\u610f\u768410\u9879\u8bae\u9898 \uff08\u661f\u661f\u751f\u6d3b\u8bb0\u8005\u738b\u5c0f\u6a97\u7f16\u8bd1\u62a5\u9053\uff09\u5f53\u81ea\u7531\u515a\u9886\u8896\u72c4\u5b89\u8bf4\u201c\u8fd9\u662f\u52a0\u62ff\u5927\u5386\u53f2\u6700\u91cd\u8981\u7684\u9009\u4e3e\u201d\u7684\u65f6\u5019\uff0c\u8bf7\u4f60\u4e0d\u8981\u611f\u5230\u60ca\u8bb6\u3002\u6bcf\u4e2a\u653f\u515a\u7684\u9886\u8896\u90fd\u5bf9\u8fc7\u53bb\u7684\u9009\u4e3e\u7528\u540c\u6837\u7684\u5b57\u773c\u3002\u4f46\u6beb\u65e0\u7591\u95ee\u7684\u662f\uff0c\u8fd9\u6b21\u9009\u4e3e\u7684\u5019\u9009\u4eba\u80af\u5b9a\u6709\u7740\u6211\u4eec\u4e0d\u5e38\u770b\u5230\u7684\u4e0d\u540c\u5fc3\u5883\u3002 \u4ee5\u4e0b\u662f\u8fd9\u6b21\u8feb\u5728\u7709\u776b\u7684\u9009\u4e3e\u4e00\u4e9b\u91cd\u5927\u4e8b\u4ef6\u3002 1\uff09\u7ecf\u6d4e\u95ee\u9898 \u4f60\u53ef&#8230;<br \/><a class=\"read-more-button\" href=\"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/?p=7326\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[22,10],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7326"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7326"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7326\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7326"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7326"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.jackjia.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7326"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
