Key Federal
Election Questions
1. Will federal political
parties pledge
to make the 90 changes needed to clean up the federal government and
make
it much more democratic and accountable?
You can help push the parties to make these
much-needed
90 changes, and see the details about the changes, using the Government Accountability Action Alert
2. Will the federal political
parties pledge to make the 14 changes needed to make 155,000 of
Canada's largest corporations, and Canada's big banks, much more
responsible and accountable?
You can help push the parties to make these
much-needed 14
changes, and see the details about the changes, using the Corporate Responsibility Action Alert
3. Will federal political party
leaders pledge to resign if they don't keep their promises (the only
valid excuse being a completely unforeseen change in situation), and
also pledge to pass an honesty-in-politics law?
You can help push the party leaders to make honest
