You can force parliament to pass one piece of legislation right now. What do you make them pass? (vargar.org)

I have quite a few creative ideas, but am too tired to write them down rn. I'll go the easy, lazy way (and write about more legislation ideas tomorrow):

Proportional representation like Germany. In every election, the voter votes for an individual and a party. The individual is chosen to represent the riding through STAR voting (my version). After all MPs are elected, to ensure proportional representation according to the party votes (the second vote that voters cast), individuals from party lists are put into parliament.

This way, we get riding representation and party representation.

  1. The banning of all future fossil fuel expansion.
  2. Criminal charges for any Canadian fighting in the IDF or involved in sending arms to Israel.
  3. Require that all vehicles in excess of 2 tonnes require a commercial license to operate. The idea would be that this limit would gradually be reduced to a sensible number over time.
  4. Vehicle speed limiters, ideally tied to the region you're in (city/highway).

I know, you asked for one, but there's a lot of stuff to be done.
